Chef Sean Weinberg and his wife Kelly run this always-inventive spot in the western Main Line, and it draws many diners from City Center. The menu stresses handmade, locally grown, artisanal ingredients and features a wood-fired grill, imbuing everything from octopus to lamb with a hefty dose of smoke and flavor. Sicilian-style, wood-roasted lamb with almonds, prunes and soft polenta will have you yearning for Nonna's kitchen. We also recommend the changing treatment of veal from Birchrun Hills Farm, such as the lasagna of veal ragù with béchamel.
