A bed of immensely fresh baby spinach leaves in a mild citrus dressing, topped with crunchy sweet pecan halves, crumbles of creamy sharp Gorgonzola cheese, and juicy sweet tangerine segments made an exciting combo. The ribs were served with firm matchsticks of carrots cooked in beer, butter, and dill. A small but richly flavored portion of chicken was cooked in white wine sauce and topped with tarragon, thyme, mushrooms, tiny pearl onions, and bacon, which infused the flavor, making it taste as opulent as Christmas dinner. The chicken was also served with the carrots and more of those praiseworthy potatoes. The restaurant has a fair-sized wine list covering most local varietals.
Desserts feature a rotating selection of sorbets, gelatos, and fresh-baked daily specials.
If you're looking for a casual but chic restaurant serving moderately priced, bistro-style comfort food, this is the place. The owners plan to open an outdoor patio dining area this summer, and hope to expand the kitchen to serve breakfast by fall.
