This restaurant feels like a bar, restaurant, and nigh-club all rolled into one. It’s all about the details, from executive chef Jamie Lynch’s innovative menu (sautéed Maine skate, Szechuan pork belly, Indian spiced potato pierogi) to the decor, which includes all 40,000-plus words of Sun Tzu’s epic The Art of War painted on the ceiling.
