This is our favorite place to surprise locals and visitors alike. They have lots of creative vegetarian dishes and a rotating selection of sustainable meat. The menu doesn't do it justice. You walk into this small house and order from a huge chalkboard of specials, then grab your silverware and sit in the driveway that's been converted into a beautiful patio.
Live music in the evenings; closed on Wednesdays.
