This intimate restaurant is one of the more underrated in the city. Chef Mansour Gorji’s brand of Mediterranean-with-a-touch-of-Texas-style food is always fresh and unique. You’ll find lamb’s brain pâté on a crostata, baby globe eggplant filled with creamy Gorgonzola and bathed in spicy arrabbiata, and entrées like butterflied poached trout under a blanket of yogurt or grass-fed venison tenderloin. Attentive service in a calm atmosphere, and a wine list with unusual finds.
