About this business
Open for lunch Monday - Saturday and dinner daily; our bar also remains open for coffee and tapas during the day 2:30 - 5pm. The idea behind The National is simple: to provide a casual neighborhood gathering spot reminiscent of the bars and cafés we’ve enjoyed on travels to Europe. Mediterranean inspired food and wine is served for lunch and dinner in the dining room and throughout the day at the bar. While our menu points to culinary traditions from abroad, we value our local farmers and our dishes reflect the ... read more

Great food and atmosphere!
An enjoyable time with the hubs. Shared small plates.
Incredible meal. Mezze appetizer was full of variety and flavor, cocktails were exquisite, thoroughly enjoyed the flank steak and the vegetable plate, the black cherry cake with pistachio ice cream was yummy but not the standout, and they make a great cappuccino! Overall, we were extremely happy with our decision to eat here!
Wonderful staff, great wine, yummy food, friendly vibe. I especially love their Brussels sprouts, delicious bread and olive oil, soups, and flatbreads. The power lunch is a winner every time.
We tried The National today after reading rave reviews, and nothing but good things. Unfortunately, from the moment we walked into the door the staff was not welcoming at all. Our waitress actually gave us an attitude when asking “if there was anything on the menu we might like”, as if this wasn’t the kind of food we would eat.

Nice spot for a late Monday lunch. Loved the ambiance and the food was delicious.
Wouldn’t give me a star rating options but definitely 5 Stars Always my favorite place to go and bring out of state visitors. The vegetable plate is the best in town. Stuffed dates and pizettes are also a favorite. Cocktails are always amazing and unique. Today I tried the special cocktail for the month “the butterfly and the bee” it wasn’t just pretty but really delightful. I even had a little bee visitor 😂😍
Eclectic , creative, and local.
