Soaring ceilings, a woodsy lakeside location, and a koi pond make this one of the most striking dining rooms in the area. The playful cooking continually surprises, with plates like short rib-spiked fondue and scallops with lentils, free-range chicken, a pumpkin baked Alaska crowned by candied cranberries, and little gifts from the kitchen like rainbow-hue house-made cotton candy. It's a family affair, too. The chef's father makes the artisanal breads that run from rosemary olive to cherry almond. You can order à la carte or splurge on one of the tasting menus, priced at $58 and $110.

    Consistently excellent food and service, with creative combinations of flavors and ingredients. Intense drops of concentrated basil sauce on the gazpacho added a beautiful and flavorful zing to the already-tasty soup. Seafood is cooked to perfection and to order, and is nicely seasoned without overpowering the main flavors of the dish. The professional-yet-pleasant waitstaff seem to enjoy working there, answering questions about the dishes, and ensuring you're taken care of. Have been here about 5 times so far, and have had a wonderful dining experience each time.
