Le Cercle

Le Cercle Review

Frequented by the area's artsy types, this contemporary venue-cum-urban eatery—a unique hybrid of bar, restaurant, and theater—serves delectable tapas, lasagna, and short ribs. Movie clips are projected onto the walls and a garage door lets in city sounds, creating a lively setting, especially during summer. The tapas menu presents ample sharing opportunities with smoked mussels, marinated olives, and cured ham. If Italian fare appeals, try the dried-tomato gnocchi or the lasagna bolognaise. Even the simple grilled cheese tastes exceptional here.
