Was Henriette Jacobi at Local Root a mag?
We were looking for a place to eat before heading to Navy Pier for a play, and Local Root turned out to be an excellent choice. The food was unique, delicious, and satisfying, with perfectly sized portions. The service was outstanding, and the bar was well-stocked. Overall, we had a fantastic experience, especially considering the time we had. View all feedback.

Local Root is a fantastic neighborhood restaurant where the hosts and servers go above and beyond to ensure your visit is warm and welcoming. The warm bread, speck, and maple syrup create a cozy, homey atmosphere. While you're there, be sure to enjoy a Bloody Mary or a mimosa with your brunch or lunch.

Local root offers the feeling of a real local environment casual restaurant. on entering, the wonderful berths of freshly baked muffins and broth and the tempting smell of bacon cook, makes them warm and secret. the servers/hosts continue to impress me through their excellent and friendly service, remember the preferences of the customers and consistently go beyond and beyond to make their experience pleasant.
