Soothe your ails with matzo ball soup made from a family recipe, then tuck into marinated Badger Flame beets with smoked trout roe, mustard cream and sprinkled with an "everything" spice & seed mix. Try one of the steaks (Flatiron with fries is a good choice) or order some of the smaller plates to share. For dessert, Jell-O pie makes a comeback, infused here with strawberry, hibiscus and garnished with candied rose petals.While the menu is diner-inspired, its interior skews modern-trendy. A thoughtful kids' menu keeps tots happy, allowing the grown-ups to luxuriate in hand-picked wines that go with each special.
