Located steps away from Washington Square Park, Blue Hill is a relaxed place in a charming little space below street level. Upon entering, one wonders what the restaurant wants to be. Is it a casual neighborhood spot, evidenced by the happy people dining at the bar and the laid-back vibe? Or is it a serious dining destination indicated by the Uptown folk absorbing the menu descriptions voraciously? The answer is that it's a little of both. The brick-lined dining room is simple, servers are warm and friendly and the food is exemplary. Appetizers may include co-owner/executive chef Dan Barber’s squash soup with chestnut tortellini and spice bread, and for an entrée, the Stone Barns Berkshire pig, shelling beans, curry and shiitake mushrooms. For dessert, we suggest the comforting chocolate bread pudding with chocolate sauce and vanilla ice cream. The wine list is short but well-chosen and, like the menu, changes frequently.
