Fodor's Review:

Celadon booths, yellow walls, and a sloping high ceiling make the latest in the string of Sondra Bernstein's popular restaurants feel summery and airy even in the middle of winter. Artisanal cheese plates and fried calamari are popular appetizers, followed by comfort-food entrées such as braised pot roast and grilled hanger steak. Don't forget to look on the chalkboard for frequently changing desserts, such as butterscotch pots de crème. The unusual no-corkage-fee policy makes it a great place to drink the wine you just discovered down the road.

Not my favorite

Not my favorite-most items tasted like they were bought, not house made...
