This seasonally inspired menu at this Bin 36 spinoff includes artisan cheese, thin crust pizzas and fire-roasted entrees from a wood-burning oven. Entrees include seared organic hangar steak with Gorgonzola butter and fries and hand-cut lobster pappardelle with bouillabaisse broth. The storefront is much smaller than the Marina City location, and tries for a more neighborhoody vibe. A rollback garage door opens onto the sidewalk for an alfresco feel during warm weather.
