Dinner Entree

Garlic Chicken
Boneless, skin-on chicken breast seared to a garlicky, crisp-skinned golden brown is paired with tender baby lima beans that have been quickly simmered with lots of fresh spinach leaves, a handful of capers and a splash of chicken stock. The limas are ladled over steaming jasmine rice and the chicken set atop the beans with a dollop of warm goat cheese and a strewing of fried garlic bits.$32.00Hot Honey Fried Chicken Thighs

Finish it off with housemade hot honey & local pickled peppers. Served with buttermilk mashed potatoes and fresh vegetables.$34.00Cavatappi with Chicken Sausage & Mustard Greens
Our housemade Italian chicken sausage is the best tasting, and best textured chicken sausage I’ve ever had. We showcase it in this flavorful pasta dish by grinding it fine and tossing it with cavatappi, fresh mustard greens, and a light-handed dollop of cream reduced with vermouth, capers, and a smidge of Dijon. Garnished with parmesan and toasted breadcrumbs.$21.12+Strip Steak
We cut our prime strip steaks in-house the traditional way, leaving the outer edge rimmed with a bit of the fat cap. If you would like us to trim it fat cap-free, just let us know. The meat is rubbed with coarse salt, black pepper and rosemary, then grilled and served the way James Beard liked it—with a dollop of herbed butter and a tangle of crispy fried onions. Accompanied by our buttermilk mashed potatoes and fresh vegetables.$48.00Filet Mignon with Worcestershire Butter
Dave’s signature steak butter made with his homemade Worcestershire sauce, is the perfect compliment for lean and tender beef tenderloin. The meat is grilled, rested, and when plated, spatched with a big pat of the softened butter. Served with crispy Yukon Gold potatoes and sauteed broccolini.$44.00Pork Jezebel
Slices of pork tenderloin are gently pounded into cutlets, seasoned, and seared on the hot griddle, then plated and spooned with our version of jezebel sauce, the tastiest thing in the world. More often poured over a block of cream cheese and served with crackers, jezebel is homemade peach jam spiked with horseradish and mustard. To the jam we add a glug of heavy cream, and in a few minutes on the stove it becomes a warm and heavenly sauce for pork. Served with buttermilk mashed potatoes and fresh vegetables.$34.00
Carbonara
Steaming strands of spaghetti very lightly coated with tiny soft curds of egg and ricotta, accented with Nueske’s smoked bacon, peas, black pepper and Parmigiano Reggiano cheese. So good. Served with toast.$19.00+
Ricotta Tacos
A mixture of ricotta and goat cheese with green chiles and capers is rolled in fresh corn tortillas, crisped on the griddle and sauced with tomatoes cooked down with butter, white wine and fresh serrano chiles. Served on dressed cabbage and radishes as a fresh, crunchy counterpoint along with lemon-scallion rice and creamy, smoky pinto beans.$28.00Autumn Risotto
Creamy risotto made with vegetable stock, Parmigiano Reggiano, and patience. We then add roasted cubes of squash, greens, mushrooms from Guided By Mushrooms, and finish it with a frizzle of fried sweet potato. A big-flavored vegetarian dish but if you’re vegan, we can leave out the cheese & butter!$30.00
Hoppin' John
A delicious version of this Southern supper dish, organic black-eyed peas are simmered with onion, cooking greens and some snappy spices, then ladled over hot rice and garnished with roasted garlic oil, chopped tomato, scallion and grated white cheddar. Choose jasmine or brown rice. Served with cornbread. Ask for our house pepper vinegar on the side!$11.00+Salmon with Apple Beurre Blanc & Farro
Norwegian Atlantic salmon is seared with a dusting of our house fennel spice, placed on a pilaf of farro, studded with autumn produce, then topped with a drizzle of sage oil & silky, rich beurre blanc infused with the flavor of local apples.$36.00Branzino

Desserts
Burnt Basque Cheesecake
This is the smoothest, creamiest, most delicious cheesecake you’ve ever tasted. It is not really anything like American cheesecake, and it is a little dark on top, on purpose, but trust me, if you order this dessert, you’ll be eating something heavenly. Topped with pistachios and kadayif.$11.95
