根 the root

“Blackccino was so good. Banana bread had a nice crunch but it was too sweet for me. Would go back for coffee, perhaps can try out other food (I was told they only serve dessert in the afternoon).”

“Good food especially Black Truffle Scallop Cauliflower Rice Coffee is good too! Connivence to locate the restaurant after out from Kai Tak MTR. Very close to the coliseum.”

I waited 1.5 hours for a seat because they were hosting an event, and frankly, I had no high expectations. However, the food was surprisingly delicious. I actually think they should consider rebranding as a bar, not just a cafe. The dinner food seems better paired with cocktails or other alcoholic beverages than with coffee.

I was there at around 6ish so there weren’t a lot of people. We were seat at the bar table, I asked nicely if we could move to the main seating area since it’s pretty empty and it’s prettier there. However we were greeted with the shittiest attitude by one of the server, claiming that we were not allow to change our seat after we ordered. I would understand if there were a lot of customers but there was literally 2 people sitting there and there were plenty to seats available. What pissed me the most was the attitude, that server was just straight up rude. The drink was just ok, I did enjoy the pudding but nothing spectacular about it. Honestly I would not visit this cafe ever again and do not recommend going if you are looking for any good services. I would advise the owner to train servers with a better attitude if they want customers to come back

I really wanted to like Root Cafe, but the overall environment made it impossible to enjoy. The moment you walk in, the place smells intensely like chemical detergent rather than freshly brewed coffee, which completely ruins the appetite. To make matters worse, the coffee is heavily overpriced for the quality you actually get. But the biggest dealbreaker for me was the lack of Wi-Fi—it's impossible to get any work done here. On top of that, the staff were incredibly noisy, with employees openly talking on their phones on speakerphone right by the seating area. Overpriced, loud, and poorly managed. Save your money and go somewhere else.

Lets put all the fame aside and talk business here. The root cafe is not opened to the public yet and I got a chance to try it once before launching. --------------------------- Dirty & Espresso tonic: I ordered the a "Dirty" as my pre-meal drink, and a "Espresso tonic" in the end to complete my meal here. Overall, the drinks are good, especially the tonic. The mix of coffee and tonic, topped with a slice of dried orange is refreshing and suitable for everyone to enjoy during these warm and humid days. Smoked Salmon Avocado Egg Salad with Yuzu Ponzu: The ingredients are fresh. But there is not much to talk about as it is a salad. Kokedama (dessert): The presentation is lovely, I like the dessert plate that goes with it, but if I have to be picky, I would prefer to have a dessert fork. It is in chocolate flavour and not to sweet, but it would be great if it has more texture. --------------------------- Others: Precious but not Practical The utensils and tablewares are specially picke

I was having a light lunch with 2 kids, ordered Tsukune Chicken Skewer, Cold brew Rose, Karesansui and a French Toast with ice cream. Overall, the taste of food is delicious. Tsukune Chicken Skewer is the best chicken skewers I have tried and my kids who very picky on food love this dish. Is my first time to try out cold brew rose and I never expected the taste is blended well. The outlook of Karesansui is very unique and look like a bonsai and it is not too sweet, which I like the taste. It is a bit pricy especially the Tsukune Chicken Skewer. For atmosphere, it is a small and cosy cafe recommended for a small group of friends (below 6 pax) gathering. A little bit not kids friendly as there is no kids cutlery available in the cafe. It is a bit heavy for my 5 years old boy to hold the solid stainless steel utensils. I went there in a weekdays afternoon, not required to wait for seat. However, the navigation of Google Map is bad, it pointed me to turn in to a different street and

This place was busy on the day with the event going on the area, we received a very proper service on line up first, then called to be seat. Some dishes were running out of the day by the time I visited, but the choices of coffee menu is still satisfying. The staff was friendly and helpful. The vibe was cozy and good for hangout.
