Montmartre
PRICE:
Frommer's Highly Recommended
Montmartre's ambience is warmed by its decor -- pale yellow-orange walls, exposed-wood ceiling, cozy bar, and old wooden tables, all fronted by a sidewalk cafe open in warm weather. The owners here are French, and Montmartre is their little French restaurant offering big French pleasures: chicory salad tossed with goat cheese and croutons, chestnut soup, pistou, potato gratin, flatiron beef with Jerusalem artichokes, seared monkfish wrapped in smoked bacon, and calves' liver sautéed with smothered onions, bok choy, potato purée, and a balsamic vinegar sauce. Desserts, like the Alsatian apple tart, don't disappoint.
