Don’t be fooled by the dated floral wallpaper and electric chandelier; beyond the main lobby, a cozy yet sophisticated dining room awaits weekend gourmands who know a thoughtful menu when they see one. The kitchen, headed by chef Joseph Watters, is at its best with simple ingredients elevated by proper technique and loving presentation. For example, velvet confit of foie gras with spicy gingerbread tuile is so decadent it could be dessert. Angus filet mingles with honey-drizzled carrots and apple purée. By contrast, more high-minded elements (a smoked protein emulsion) and experimental dishes (smoked salmon sandwich salad) feel pretentious in this down-to-earth setting. Friendly servers. Mains $28–$38.
