The menu follows a Southern-fried meat-and-three concept, meaning diners order a meat, plus three sides. Those will include Ruthie’s mac and cheese, of course, but also white-soy-braised greens, stewed chickpeas and smoked cauliflower with a spicy soy glaze. “We’re going to be changing it a lot based on seasonality,” Hill says of the menu. “ Every vegetable has got to be fantastic because it has to stand on its own.” One thing that will help that: Hill is already growing all of the restaurant’s own herbs at his South Arlington community garden plot.

    Outstanding!! I normally do not like to go to restaurants on days they have special menus. However, the Valentine's choices were wonderful! The lobster and tuna appetizers were delicious, as were the Branzino entree and the luscious raspberry tarts! Julio's service was so refined and helpful, as usual. And James opened a lovely burgundy and provided a delightful evening surprise!! I love going here. I wish I could enjoy the cuisine and service more often. My go-to spot for top flight dining and service in the region.

    This was only my 2nd visit, but my wife has been 4 times. We dined there for Valentine’s Day. It was full, but everything was running smoothly. We liked everything! We got the bread basket, tuna tartare/cucumber appetizer and the arugula salad with butternut squash. All were excellent! The amount of dressing was perfect and let the tastes of the squash, pomegranate and other yummy bits come through! We both had the Moist Brisket entrees with 4 different sides. Everything was good. At first I thought the brisket was too salty, but realized it was licking up the juice from the pickles cucumber and onion garnish. Separately, they were great, but the saltiness detracted the flavor of my first piece of brisket. The rest were not affected. We were stuffed and brought most of the sides home. I’d also add that the Arnold Palmer I ordered was also excellent and had an impressive presentation and clearly separate portions of tea and lemonade.

    We sat at the bar and were able to take advantage of the happy hour specials on drinks and appetizers, which was nice because the menu is quite pricey. Even sitting at the bar, the service was attentive, knowledgeable about the menu, and friendly. The food tasted great and the portions were generous. Only complaint was the coconut curry risotto was a little sweet for my taste. Overall a very pleasant dining experience.

    My friend had the brisket and loved it.. cocktails were great too! We stopped in for a late lunch and definitely want to go back for dinner. Also loved the hushpuppies and potato salad. He was talking about going back for more before we hit the driveway on the way home ~
