Brick & Mortar

Top choice in St Petersburg


A husband-and-wife catering team launched this, well, brick-and-mortar establishment in 2015, and despite the fact that St Pete has been overrun with great restaurants, this New American experiment dominated. Best thing in the menu? A divine house carpaccio with leek, some goat's cheese mousse, a touch of truffle oil and a single ravioli stuffed with deliciously runny egg yolk ($17).
