We visited one of the newest restaurants to enter Glasgow City Centre, Roots, located on Reinfield Street within the former site of Gin 71.<br /><br />The venue is owned and operated by the previous owners of Mediterraneo in the Merchant City, as the Italian brothers seek to mould a new identity for this new project. <br /><br />Established as a cocktail bar and restaurant, Roots offers an extensive food menu full of Mediterranean style dishes, serving an A La Carte and small plate menu.<br /><br />Three of the Glasgow World team visited for lunch the other day - the other two had the two course express deal while I had a starter and main from the A La Carte and brunch menu - though it did all come to the same price. <br /><br />Highlights for us were the pasta and paella - full of flavour and good portion sizes for the time of day.<br /><br />They’ve centred their food offerings around locally sourced produce. <br /><br />The staff were really friendly and professional and the building itself is stunning, a lovely environment to sit and eat a meal.
