Why they're an Icon

From the OpenTable editors: Inspired by the relaxed sophistication of California dining, this stylish spot embraces boho west coast vibes with its soft neutral tones and natural fabrics. Seasonal ingredients are the throughline of a playful menu that ranges from carne asada to spicy vodka pasta. After dinner, classic cocktails and a funky soundtrack encourage diners to hang out longer.

    I’ve been to Dovetail three times now, and each visit has been outstanding. The service is always warm and attentive, making you feel right at home from the moment you walk in. The food is nothing short of exceptional – each dish is perfectly prepared with fresh ingredients and bold flavors that never disappoint. This place has quickly become my new favorite spot, and I can’t recommend it enough!

    Was sat in the “outside” area. Fully covered but slightly cold. They had blankets and heaters at the ready. We got the mushrooms on toast and have to say it was amazing. The chicken appetizer was a close second! Will be going back for sure.

    Wonderful food, nice atmosphere. You must try the Bang Bang Shrimp, the Kale Salad, the Chicken Parmesan, the Brussels Sprouts, and the Lemon Tiramisu- all were absolutely delicious! Highly recommend this restaurant!
