This place was started by the Rosenthal brothers, who cooked at Postrio for years. The food is upscale American with some twists, including wrapping bacon around almost everything. My personal favorites are the fried chicken and ribeye steak. Done just right! For dessert, the butterscotch and chocolate pudding is really better than it even sounds.

I love the dining room, which like its name suggests, is comfortable and a bit farmhousy. Servers bring your bill in an old book, rather than an ugly plastic folio with a credit card logo embossed on it.
