Persimmon
Persimmon Review
A smartly simple bistro with space for no more than 40 patrons, Persimmon is run by young chef-owner Champe Speidel and his wife Lisa. It's a genial neighborhood spot, a short walk from the bay and just off Bristol's main street. The seasonal menu has featured white wine-braised rabbit with gnocchi and sage and a tasting of Texas wild boar that comprises roasted saddle, seared chop, braised shoulder, and smoked sausage.
