It's feeling frosty and the table is set.

Come cozy up with a smoked short rib and a bottle of Trousseau. We love they way these two work so well together. The boysenberry, herb and forest floor notes of this wine compliment the smokey richness of our beef short rib.

Happy Negroni Week! 🥃

We're always excited for the chance to put our own spin on this classic, and to support a cause we believe in. This year, we give you the Crown Jool, made with Medjool date syrup, apricot and arak.

All week long, $1 from every Crown Jool will go to , which is committed to increasing access to food that is nourishing, good for the planet and for farmers. Cheers to that!

This is our roasted eggplant! We take half an eggplant and score it before hitting it with a bit of olive oil and salt. Afterwards we toss it in our pita oven to put that beautiful char on the outside. When it is done roasting we plate it over a bit of tahina and top it with a freekeh salad that consists of barberries, parsley and walnuts. This all gets a little drizzle of honey and voila! This is a perfect dish for all the vegetarians out there looking for something savory and hearty.

So you're probably familiar with carpaccio... Thinly sliced meat or fish, served raw, garnished with lemon or vinegar and salt. This is our vegetarian take on that concept. We roast beets with olive oil, bay leaf and allspice. After they're done roasting we char them on the grill and then thinly slice them. Those slices are plated and garnished with fresh dill, pistachio, sea salt, olive oil and crème fraiche. This is a surprisingly light dish packed with fall flavors. 🤩💜

Fall is in the air and on our menu! 🍂😍🥰 We've got a ton of seasonal dishes that we'll be highlighting here over the next couple weeks! Tag someone in the comments that you could eat all of this with. ❤👇

The seasons are shifting and so are our dining options. A week from today (Monday October 18th) we'll be ceasing service on our front patio. In addition we are slightly enclosing the back patio and installing some new heaters. We'll also be launching bar service in the very near future so keep your eyes peeled for announcements on that. ✌❤
