Our Hamachi Crudo brings together sushi-grade Japanese yellowtail with guajillo chili and pineapple aguachile, watermelon radish and cilantro for a dish that’s as beautiful as it is vibrant.

A little heat, a little sweetness and a whole lot of freshness.

Baked to golden perfection with spinach, bacon, parmesan and smoked paprika. Our Oyster Rockefeller has been a favorite for as long as we can remember, and it's easy to see (and taste) why.

Indulge in something extraordinary this evening.

Our Lamb & Ricotta Cavatelli: handcrafted pasta cradling a San Marzano tomato braised lamb ragout, finished with broccoli rabe and shaved Manchego. Rich, rustic, and refined in equal measure.
