For all that this spot puts forward in playful attitude, it's serious about several things, most prominently sourcing sustainable ingredients and turning said ingredients into delicious food that bridges the globe, but is often influenced by Chesapeake Bay. The crispy polenta with gorgonzola sauce and mushroom ragout – oh yes. Yes. Yes! Wonderful service, too.
Solo travelers will do just fine at the large bar facing the open kitchen in back.
