This quaint 11-table restaurant is a charming Uptown spot. Chef Lucia Watson, who was recognized by the James Beard Award as one of the top five chefs in the Midwest, offers a well-edited menu. She uses fresh, seasonal food along with local products, and everything is made onsite. The adjacent wine bar allows diners to choose from an ever-evolving wine list, with many options by the glass. The brunch is a weekend favorite.
