James Beard–nominated chef Abbi Merriss creates the city's most raved about upscale comfort food. Her daily changing menus call on the freshest local ingredients and everything's a star, be it a gourmet Monte Cristo (city ham, Gruyère, Dijon, strawberry preserves, pullman French toast) or a sweet-and-sour bowl of Brussels sprouts with pickled red onions.
If the vanilla-bean chess pie is on, you're gonna wanna save room for that. No reservations.
