NOT PET FRIENDLY AND RUDE- My husband & I have been going to kava bars for 8+ years, taking our service animal kitty, who is harness trained, to each one and have never had a problem.
We had been to this location a month ago at night with our cat & were never told she wasn’t allowed to be in this kava bar.
Today, we returned with our cat & had been hanging out in there for about 20 minutes. She was sitting nicely in a corner while I was getting my SMALL kratom tea, when the manager said that the cat was not allowed to be in there, saying that she was not clean and would spread disease.
I asked if dogs were allowed to be in here and he responded saying yes dogs are allowed in here but he just took a class on cats & stated that they spread disease and they’re not allowed to be in here.
We paid $12 for a SMALL drink, which was extremely overpriced and felt horrible by how this man talked to us. We left nicely and other guests looked at us and apologized saying they have never heard of someone saying that before.
We will never be coming back to support this location as well as any of the other locations due to this horrible experience.

My wife and I just got back from a business trip in Hawaii Saturday morning. The trip took about 15 hours with stops and we had already been up for 7 hours prior to the flight in HI. We couldn’t sleep due to all the turbulence on the LA to Orlando leg so by the time we landed, we’d been up almost 24 hours. I asked my wife Corinne, where do you want to go? She answered “Seriously?” Island Root of course. It’s sort of a tradition for us to stop there when traveling back from business trips. SOO Glad we did. Got a couple of Kratom sangrias and was good to go the rest of the day. We love this place. Great drinks and atmosphere.

Great kava and kratom and the service is amazing. Not great in the food but your close to downtown were there is great food they have tables outside and inside and they do allow you to eat there. I highly recommend it.

Very very rude customers showed up for the four times and some girl just blew smoke in my face at the bar! Too many people smoking in and around the place. Nasty so I had to leave without finishing the food

Island Root is Kava Culture. Downtown is your home away from home. Every culture graces these spaces with ease. Family and small pet friendly, I haven't seen a farm animal inside yet... Catch the Vibe, Ride the Waves in Life. It's a True Oasis in the Desert of the Real.

This is the heart of the kava community. Tony and his employees are some of the friendliest and awesome people I have ever met. You will make amazing friends and memories every time you visit!

Guy said my id was fake and then wiped gunk off the table with it. Very unprofessional and very rude. Don’t come here unless you’re a narc like the workers. Terrible environment.
