Roots Natural Kitchen is a Charlottesville-born restaurant that serves satisfying and delicious grain bowls and salads starring fresh and tasty natural ingredients. Whether you are a dog walker, accountant, 3rd grader, or parent, literally anyone can benefit by eating more natural stuff. Eating amazing meals that also support us brings us joy both during and after the meal.  

At Roots you can select from a chef-designed signature bowl—like the famous Southwestern-inspired “El Jefe” made with a cilantro lime vinaigrette—or customize your own with any combination of ingredients. Top it off with something from the grill, like grilled chipotle marinated chicken, mushrooms, or BBQ Tofu.

Roots Catering can spice up your next event.  While ordering big grain bowls or an unusual salad bar may seem like a bit of a risk for your event, we’re here to tell you it’s not! Our food is flavorful, filling, and enjoyed by all types of people.
