Outstanding, simple food – I've had two of my favorite meals ever here. It's not a fussy (or long) menu but everything I've tried has been perfect. Fresh ingredients, simple preparations, stunning results.

Lovely, comfortable food – I've had brunch here at couple of times and every time it's been great. The food is delicious, comforting and worth every cent.

Coffee's also great with plenty of refills, and the service is always friendly and that perfect balance of qui... read more

Since it was a Sunday, I ordere... read more

Citysearch Editorial Review – Owners Christophe Hille and Nathan Foot both came from widely lauded San Francisco restaurants (A16 and Myth, respectively), and bring the Bay Area’s famous focus on seasonality and locally sourced ingredients to their relaxed East Village restaurant/artisanal market. In front, a small contemporary American menu filled with dishes like caramelized leeks topped with lemon and pecorino cheese, squid from Long Island and a savory country ham sandwich with pickled onions and whole-grain mustard is s... read more
