Featured Restaurant on Rick's DineSite Journal

Atmosphere is funky, bohemian, but fun, warm, casual and comfortable - the room is dark, warm with soft booth seats, or hard wood chairs at the tables, dark walls, high tin-type ceilings, a wall of windows on the front. There is an array of dining areas - the bar which offers its own variations of ala carte dining with ample dining or bar seating, and the main dining room adjacent, with booths, tables or its own dining counter. There is also a dining room/table in a wine-cellar atmosphere due to a a wall of wine racks that separate the dining room from this cellar room for a 'private' party. Off the beaten track and a bit difficult to find if you don't know the area. There is a limited on-site parking - arranged parking in commercial center across the street after hours. Atmosphere - 3.75/5

Food - Menu (classic America) offers a creative and focused selection of appetizers and salads and a broad selection of well crafted dishes - seafood, beef, lamb, pork, chicken, and duck. Portions are adequate. The selections are carefully prepared and stylishly presented. Everything we've tried was excellent. Its definitely a sophisticated and wine friendly, wine oriented menu. There is also a nice selection of artisanal cheeses.
