Gourmet magazine named this Randolph Street hot spot from James Beard award-winning executive chef Paul Kahan one of the 50 best restaurants in the country in 2001. And for our money, it still is. Kahan and chef de cuisine Mike Sheerin serve contemporary American cuisine that relies on pristine produce and simple, pretty presentation.
