Editorial Review

This affordable gem from chef and owner Marc Zegers hits French-inspired fare with a few twists. Smoky duck quesadilla with manchego cheese disappears quickly, as does juicy chorizo with baked figs and blue cheese. Seared Arctic char comes perfectly cooked and lightly crusted with ancho chili; spiced red lentils, grilled vege­table ratatouille and beurre noisette make a suitable match. Mains $13–$22. Corkage $15.
