| Chef John Varanese’s upscale-casual restaurant offers signature dishes including stuffed crab avocado, curried lamb and lentil soup, a flat-iron steak with mushroom and Parmesan risotto, and the bourbon barrel-smoked pork chop, which you could order for the apple-bacon chutney topping alone. Chef’s specials truly are special, and there are usually three or four each evening. If quail is among the specials, no matter the preparation, order it. Tres leches cake and the toffee-marshmallow bread pudding with salted caramel ice cream make choosing a dessert downright difficult. Veranese has a sophisticated house cocktail list and a good wine list to complement the menu. |
