RESTAURANT REVIEW
Naomi Pomeroy loves her meat. After making a name for herself working at a number of local restaurants, she found her calling at this bare-bones dining room dominated by two communal tables and an open kitchen. Each Wednesday Naomi posts a weekly menu. The six-course meal always features a charcuterie plate that might include a foie gras bon bon with Sauternes and your main course might be braised Rainshadow El Rancho goat with gnocchi and roasted beets. Popular with local diners who describe it as, "fine dining without the fuss."
