New American

Rustic Root

Woodbury, Long Island, NY 📍 Maps

A casual sit-down spot serving New American comfort food with a heavy emphasis on local, farm-to-table ingredients. Chef Tom Gloster, formerly of Rothmann's Steakhouse, sources organic produce directly from Long Island purveyors like MarGene Farms in Mattituck to anchor the seasonal menu. Aim for a seat during their daily Golden Hour at the bar to pair discounted draft beers with their signature zucchini chips.

★ The Legend
Corn Bread
This skillet-baked cornbread is served warm and glistening with a generous topping of sweet maple whipped butter and a sprinkle of Amagansett sea salt. Regulars know to order it the second they sit down so it arrives hot at the table to be torn apart and shared before the main courses.
◆ Fan Favorite
Zucchini Chips
These paper-thin zucchini slices are lightly battered and fried to a delicate, airy crisp that avoids any hint of greasiness. They are piled high in a mountain on the plate and served alongside a tangy, herb-flecked Greek yogurt and dill dipping sauce.
● Chef's Pick
Agnolotti
These supple, house-made pasta pockets are filled with sweet summer corn sourced directly from Meyer's Farm Stand and finished with a vibrant, aromatic pesto drizzle. Chef Chris Perrotta introduced this signature dish to the menu to showcase his passion for fresh, hyper-local Long Island produce.
◇ Hidden Gem
Roasted Beets
Most first-timers bypass the salad section for heavier starters, but this vibrant plate features earthy roasted beets paired with mandarin oranges, salty feta, and candied pistachios. The entire dish is tied together with a sharp red wine vinaigrette that cuts through the sweetness of the beets and citrus.
Insider Tip

Sit at the long, narrow bar overlooking the open kitchen during the afternoon 'Golden Hour' to enjoy discounted signature cocktails like the lavender-infused gin Lavender Haze alongside smaller portions of their famous zucchini chips.
