| - Fern exhibited the three things most important to me in a restaurant: Excellent and interesting cuisine, attentive and knowledgeable staff and a unique atmosphere.
Small and cozy, Fern's nature inspired interior was welcoming right off the bat. Each table was adorned with a little mason jar terrarium and artful silver, making this a really neat date spot. We started with the Fern Bruschetta, which is the only thing I wouldn't recommend due to the sogginess of the bread. But their local kombucha followed it up nicely.
The main courses were fantastic. The Arugula and Smoked Trumpet Mushroom salad was by far the most interesting and enjoyable salad I've yet had. When I asked the server about the mushrooms, she was very knowledgeable and friendly, and all of the staff seemed to have a genuine interest in the menu items and their ingredients. The OM Burger, as many others have said, was also delectable. The crisp, light bun made it for me, and the flavor was great. I'd definitely recommend Fern, it was perfect for a lunch date and worth every penny.
