MICHELIN Guide's Point Of View

Named for Chef Jeremy Fox's young daughter, this homespun delight serves up square meals with satisfying swerves. Soothe your ails with matzo ball soup made from a family recipe, then tuck into marinated Badger Flame beets with smoked trout roe, mustard cream and sprinkled with an “everything” spice & seed mix. Try one of the steaks (Flatiron with fries is a good choice) or order some of the smaller plates to share. For dessert, Jell-O pie makes a comeback, infused here with strawberry, hibiscus and garnished with candied rose petals.While the menu is diner-inspired, its interior skews modern-trendy. A thoughtful kids’ menu keeps tots happy, allowing the grown-ups to luxuriate in hand-picked wines that go with each special.
