This neighborhood bistro features quality food, good wine and a welcoming atmosphere. The philosophy is simple, but it works --- locals flock here on any given night. The menu is predominantly Mediterranean inspired, and highlights fresh, seasonal ingredients. The pork osso buco was fork-tender and flavorful, the accompanying risotto rich and creamy. Steak frites is another popular option, as is the pepper-encrusted whisky burger. Desserts are also a must, and include such delights as a chocolate crème brûlée and seasonal fruit tart.
