Calling itself a "modern speakeasy of sorts," this Warehouse District dining destination offers nostalgia-tinged sophistication. Look for a custom-made tile floor with Art Nouveau patterns and a floor-to-ceiling wine rack offers a 100-bottle, boutique wine list, with most selections less than $75. Chef Kendal Duque creates a product-driven, seasonally focused contemporary American menu. Expect entree choices like striped sea bass with young leeks and heirloom tomatoes and free-range chicken with pea shoots and yellow wax beans. There's also a large lounge area with retro cocktails made with seasonally fresh ingredients.
