This bustling restaurant benefits from sharing a kitchen with Highlands Bar & Grill. Frank Stitt's French menu features traditional brasserie fare like a croque madame as well as the more exotic beef tongue Lyonnais, along with a host of dishes based on local ingredients like a tartine with crabmeat, avocado and lemon or trout with brown butter, capers and Brabant potatoes. One reviewer described it as "an excellent re-creation of a brasserie adapted for the local market," and given that few quality restaurants are open for the midday meal, it's not surprising that reviewers deem this "easily the best lunch spot in town." |
