| - The reviews don't lie!* FnB is exceptional. The service is personal, knowledgeable and attentive in a way that I haven't experienced in a very long time. We started with the Food and Wine, top 10 dishes of the year, braised leeks with housemade mozzarella and an egg. It was good. But, I was just as happy with the fresh bread and (so good that it's) green, flavorful EVOO.
We had the Halibut, Broccoli and a special of prawns. The broccoli was something worth writing home about. I'm going to try to duplicate at home. As the girl next to me at the counter said, "it's the best broccoli you've ever had times 100." The Halibut was lovely. Cooked perfectly, lightly seasoned and served under a salad featuring kumquats from the chef's neighbor's garden. That's local!
One of the more interesting, engaging dining experiences that I've had in a long, long time. Reserve a seat at the FnB counter immediately, if you like fresh, inventive, local, in season food with impeccable presentation.
*Except for the Gastropub part, the food is too light, fresh and the setting more intimate than a gpub.
