Description
Conceived by BatesMasi, the space pairs exposed whitewashed brick with suspended security gates to frame a dim, moody dining room. As a sister venue to Asset, it balances this aesthetic with carefully paced courses and thoughtful plating. The menu focuses on shared plates and house-made pastas like cacio e pepe, alongside grilled octopus and a classic baked Alaska. Drinks are anchored by a curated list of 20 wines by the glass and 10 beers on tap.
