Fodor's Expert Review Herbert Samuel

Walking through the door of this understated but elegant dining room, you hear the energetic hum of good conversation. The upscale but accessible kosher menu has a strong Mediterranean influence and changes every season. Staples include the nine-variety tomato salad, barbecue lamb sliders, and the daily catch from the adjacent marina. Leave room for the luscious house-made, dairy-free desserts. An open kitchen is on full view and is a must-see for anyone who loves to cook. The extensive wine list and refreshing cocktails are professionally created.
