The pork shoulder was good and is strongly recommended. Price is reasonable and good for a Michelin Bib Gourmand place

Went for the Croatian wine dinner and it was outstanding! Great presentation and great service. The portion sizes were ample and we did not go away...

Life will be grim in NY without the chorizo stuffed bacon wrapped dates. Literally the best thing I've ever eaten. Ever.

I've been wanting to come here for 11 years, but was afraid of the wait because they did not take reservations (until now). We ordered eight dishes...

Food was out of this world, but seating is uncomfortable and it was very loud. Otherwise, fabulous.

Don't miss this month's "Friends of avec" brunch with Half Acre Beer Company. They'll take their hand at the bar and offer a variety of brews to be paired with our brunch-time fare!

We might be partial, but pastry chef Dana Cree's warm chocolate-olive oil cocotte takes the cake on this one. Even better, you can also grab it to-go at Publican Quality Meats.
