Dinner highlights include a mozzarella cart with mozzarella or burrata, pickled fruit, aged vinegars, cold-pressed olive oil, and focaccia; housemade pasta like squid ink radiatori with rock shrimp, calamari, and basil; tortellini filled with butternut squash, brown butter, and sage; cavatappi with duck bolognese, marjoram pesto, and parmesan; and lumache alla vodka with ’nduja and stracciatella. Mains include a roasted half chicken with maitake mushrooms, Duroc pork Milanese with pickled chili and greens, roasted snapper with vibrant salsa verde, and beef short rib brasato with rutabaga and bone marrow vinaigrette.
The breakfast menu leans toward hearty comforts like panettone waffles topped with whipped mascarpone, a croissant breakfast sandwich with sausage and eggs, and “The Usual” — a big diverse plate with two eggs, crispy rosemary potatoes, sourdough toast, and bacon or sausage. The brunch menu offers classics, too. There’s fried chicken with Calabrian chili honey, a burger with truffle mayo and pancetta, and focaccia layered with prosciutto and arugula, topped with two sunny-side eggs and shaved parmesan.
The bulk of the cocktails skew toward easygoing and aperitivo-heavy options like spritzes, but there’s also a spirit-forward savory pepperoncini martini and a saccharine tiramisu milk punch. Dessert includes a pistachio pie under toasted meringue and a chocolate gianduja cake paired with caramelized miso ice cream.
The restaurant was designed in-house by Bunkhouse (now a part of Hyatt Hotels) and features Designed in-house by Bunkhouse Hotels, the space features wood furnishings, velvet seating, and an antique-mantel fireplace.
