"Haven't had one bad thing..."

  • outdoor dining
  • Food:
  • Decor:
  • Service:
  • Cost: $$$
  • Wine / Cocktails:

Overview:

I have been to Perennial Virant a handful (well a large handful) of times since it opened. The menu is ever changing and I have had the entire menu for the past month or so and I can't find one dish that disappoints. Paul Virant came in and really created a special combination of elegance and neighborhood feel. It is a place to go to celebrate as well as meet some friends and sit on the patio for a casual night.

Special Dishes:

herb parisienne gnocchi, crispy carnaroli rice, smoked dietzler farm short ribs, pan-roasted walleye pike, carrots with lemon balm

"A definite must..."

  • Food:
  • Decor:
  • Service:
  • Cost: $$$
  • Wine / Cocktails:

Overview:

I was at the soft opening and then back again during opening week. I currently have resos for 3 more nights in the next 2 months to take friends. That's how highly I think of this new hot spot.
Giuseppe always does an amzing job with his food, but this menu is something special. I have tried everything except three menu items. My recommendations are as follows (though you can't really go wrong): house smoked salmon, lobster roll, oysters, crab agnolotti, black gnocchi.
For those of you who remember the Tizi Melloul space, it is a complete 180. It is airy and bright with a real upscale seaside feel. Talkiong with Chef Tentori, there will soon be an outdoor seating area to look forward to this summer!

Special Dishes:

house smoked salmon, lobster roll, oysters, crab agnolotti, black gnocchi

"Booze filled cupcakes...what
MORE do you want?"

  • Food:
  • Decor:
  • Service:
  • Cost: $
  • Wine / Cocktails:

Overview:

In my opinion, MORE has better cupcakes than Sprinkles. Not only in moistness, but also in creativity of flavors. I have tried almost all of their menu and my favorite that I always go back to are the booze flavored cupcakes. White Russian, Marghertia, Gin & Juice, Chocolate/Champagne...
