Festivore ChoiceOur Comments
Opened in mid-2007 to rave reviews and has been a consistently strong performer. The place is small, on a quiet street with an odd triangular shape and foliage-framed windows. There are a couple of seats at the tiny kitchen counter if you enjoy watching the action. Service is well-informed and very friendly.
On the food side, the main event is set menus Tuesdays through Saturdays, costing about $50 or $80 with wine pairings (single seating – must reserve ahead). The format is communal tables only. Chef Ronspies is creative and talented.
- “Happy Mondays!” mean beer and wine specials and relatively cheap small plates all night (and no reservations).
