With an open interior that spans 3 floors and glass walls, to the offshoots that hold 10 or so tables in a modern minimalist yet color accented environment, restaurant week brought out a variety of options to taste in the comfortable yet sophisticated environment.
Puffed pita bread is brought out pipping hot, endless baskets will fill the evening for you to tear and dip into the upcoming plates:
