Fodor's Expert Review Three Square Grill
Editor's Note: This location is no longer in operation.
Hidden within an old shopping plaza in the Hillsdale neighborhood, Three Square Grill specializes in large plates of comfort food fashioned from local, organic ingredients. The restaurateurs at this family-run grill are very much do-it-yourselfers: they smoke their own pastrami, salmon, and provolone; pickle their own peppers, carrots, and onions; mix their own dressings, sauces, and aiolis; and bake their own burger buns, pies, and desserts. Dishes include a NC-style barbeque sandwich with slaw and hush puppies; a bouillabaisse with shrimp, crab, oysters, mussels, and crawfish; and a killer burger with add-ons including kimchi, grilled onion, and an organic egg. The Sunday brunch is a big hit at this kid-friendly place.
