Best Global Restaurants in Jefferson Park

We had an absolutely outstanding dining experience at Root Down. I was excited there was a spot available on Open Table. It has been a while since I have gone out to dine in a restaurant. Let me just start by saying, the food was amazing. We had these bacon wrapped pepperdew peppers appetizers with a fondue sauce, diver scallops that were cooked perfectly, the Squash "Onion" Rings were fried to a perfect crisp. But what made this experience the most special was our server, Gigi. She was quite possibly one of the best servers I have ever had in my life. She was so kind and knowledgeable and had such a vibrant personality. I recently lost my 5 year old Chocolate Lab, Lucy on January 19th very suddenly. I was shocked and truly devastated. My Mom flew in from Florida to help me cope. This was a special night out, to get some positive energy and be together and talk about memories of Lucy. She brought us 3 chocolate trufffles as a small homage to my Chocolate Lab. It was so sweet and memorable. Thank you Gigi, the bartender who made our delicious and fresh ingredient cocktails, the food runners, the kitchen, the hostess who was so kind. My Mom, boyfriend and I will never forget this. Thank you!!!!!

We stopped in here while in Denver awaiting our flight home. It was pretty busy for a Wednesday which was unexpected so the wait even with a reservation was a bit. But the drinks and food are super yummy and different from the average menu items. The baos were so good, the chicken was my favorite. The pot stickers were super yummy as well as the pad Thai. Overall it was a great experience.

We went here for a retirement lunch. There were 11 of us with a variety of dietary restrictions. The staff handled all 11 of us seamlessly and all of us enjoyed our dishes. The noise level is also perfect for a group. We could hear each other and we weren’t yelling.

Food was amazing got the lamb and chicken plates, mix of Little Indian and Italian food. Our server was amazing and the restaurant gave us a complimentary appetizer for our anniversary which I found amazing. Restaurant is small but it’s nice and everyone is so nice there. Will be coming back at some point.
