About Rooted Hospitality Group

Rooted Hospitality Group (RHG, or Rooted) is an award-winning, Long Island-based restaurant hospitality company that has exceeded customers’ expectations for nearly 17 years. Founded in 2009 by David and Rachel Hersh, the company began with a dream to create a gathering place that paired sun, soft sand, and refreshing breezes with good drinks, chef-driven food, and great company, creating some of Long Island‘s most beloved restaurants and bars which all offer the company’s signature warmth and hospitality.

In 2010, RHG opened its first location, RUMBA in Hampton Bays, NY. Two years later, RHG acquired one of the most beautiful properties in the same area, injected its vision, and brought the property to life. Cowfish opened in 2012, also in Hampton Bays, NY. Beginning in 2014, RHG acquired a property in Patchogue, NY, on the revitalized downtown Main Street, where they renovated and reconstructed a one-story restaurant into a tri-level space that includes the only rooftop dining terrace in the area. RHUM, sister restaurant to RUMBA, opened its doors in 2016. Other projects include AVO TACO, a unique fast-casual hybrid, located in New Hyde Park and Bayside, NY and New Orleans, LA. In 2025, RHG expanded its footprint—and its original island-inspired concept— in the south. RUMBA debuted in Metairie, Louisiana, bringing that same chef-driven Caribbean flavor and warm hospitality to a new coast. It’s the next stop in a journey that’s just getting started...
