For me, the small bonus gestures consistently offered at Touch set it apart. On my first visit, it was an small scoop of a pallet-cleansing sorbet. And, last night, it was a round of shots from the owner. While nominal in cost for the restaurant, the hospitable gestures mean so much to me.
Touch is a perfect choice for thoughtful and well-executed dishes priced well (entrees are in the $9-$16 range, apps between $4-$9.) I can vouch for the Duck Spring Roll appetizer, Warm Mushroom Salad, Hanger Steak, and Burger. All were winners!
The service and atmosphere are relaxed and unpretentious. As the dinner hour passes, Touch transforms into a hip bar scene generally with a dj spinning.
