Roots

Very good food. Make sure you ask for both menus. It's like a bonus that you can order food from both resteraunts as I guess they share a kitchen. Food from both menus was great. There are many, many, many options. The crispy shitake mushroom dish was to die for. Even my daughters who don't generally like mushrooms loved it. I am not vegan, but 2 of my daughters are. We had 2 vegans i vegetarian and 2 carnivors in our group. We all enjoyed the dinner. Appetizers are priced well enough that you can tey a variety if you have 4 or more people in your party.

I am so grateful for the soul-filled, nourishing meals at Heart and Soy and Roots. The food has only gotten better throughout the years, and the staff is just so kind. There are few places in town with such a wide variety of veggie-friendly meals. Also, they make their tofu in house! They do get busy with takeout orders at times, so be patient. The taro pudding is to die for, the bahn mi and fried tofu are the best in town and so affordable and fresh, and you really can’t go wrong with anything on the menu. Other faves: Vietnamese noodles with egg rolls/tofu/extra veggies, the tofu clay pot, lemongrass noodles, and the cucumber rolls.

My husband and I had a day to ourselves and drove into Louisville specifically for this restaurant. I'm lactose intolerant and I was so excited to be able to order whatever on the menu sounded good instead of trying to find a safe option. As a bonus, I got to try a dish I never have before! We will definitely be back since I couldn't decide between 4 or 5 things.

This review is specific to heart and soy. I have never eaten at roots. The food is excellent. Lots of variety, different choices of drinks and desserts. The only issue with Service is that it can get quite busy and you may have to wait a while for your food, but the staff is friendly and attentive. I am allergic to peas and carrots, and I love that I am able to substitute broccoli in the veggie fried rice. My husband loves the bánh mì sandwich, and I also like the Hué soup and Singapore noodles.
