Description
Chef Shawn McClain is often associated with steak-centric Custom House or his veg-head haven Green Zebra, but this upscale dining room is really where his solo career took root. The fresh flavors of Spring's namesake season are showing up on the menu in a rotation of ever-changing specials, such as Australian barramundi served with spring garlic, potato gnocchi, grilled ramps and caramelized onions. Menu mainstays, like a simple lemongrass and coconut soup and Pacific black cod with a black bean sake glaze and toasted sesame, highlight McClain's penchant for Asian-leaning flavors.
