    Perfect date spot. It's a little too intimate for groups but tables do sit up to around 5 or 6 comfortably. Maybe max id double date there but not really a family and children place. Food is gourmet comfort food, I guess as if you were in a Guesthouse. But an elevated, chic one. Great bottles list, great price.

    We went to The Smith Nomad for Thanksgiving dinner. The portions were perfect, the food was out quickly but we didn’t feel rushed at all! The restaurant was extremely clean and all the staff were happy and helpful. We would definitely recommend and definitely go back!
