Take in a leisurely meal at this cozy 1928 bungalow with little rooms painted in peaceful hues of slate blue and vanilla. The menu of home cooking demonstrates flair with seafood and meat, richly sauced pastas and vegetarian specialties. Several specials have hooked us, including grilled ruby rainbow trout crowned with shiitake mushroom-ginger cream sauce, and the skewered beef tenderloin tips with a spicy chili rub. The non-carnivorous should opt for the crab-stuffed shrimp with lemon basil aïoli. On warm summer nights, we recommend the refreshing chilled fruit soups. Gluten-free diners will appreciate a special menu devoted to them with well over a dozen items. The eclectic wine list is constantly being updated, and there's often a theme such as Woman Winemakers or Wines of Germany. Splurge on Bootsy's buttermilk pie, a house specialty served with fresh strawberries. After dining, take a stroll through Eastside's backyard vegetable and herb garden (you most likely just enjoyed its yield in your meal) or check out the delightful shop.
