Soho Restaurant Review:

Live music has long been the calling card of this downtown hot-spot, but the restaurant portion is noteworthy as well. Patrons can eat inside the exposed-brick and hardwood dining room or outside on the veranda. (Bear in mind that if you're dining past 8 p.m., your conversation may compete with the band.) The California cuisine menu is mainly organic and boasts dishes like fresh, local catch-of-the-day; a pesto pizza features roasted tomato and garlic, artichoke hearts, basil and goat cheese. Other options include pasta and a variety of house specialties including chicken dishes and meat and game like the wild boar shank with port reduction. For dessert, try the warm chocolate pudding cake. Wash it all down with a local wine, then sit back and enjoy the tunes.
