"Offering fine dining with a casual edge, Giesing’s gastronomic gem is found pumping out a hip-hop soundtrack on an otherwise quiet street. The attentive waitstaff arrive at tables in sneakers and sweatshirts and bearing well-rehearsed details about every dish. The lunch menu is small but includes the best pastrami sandwiches in town, while the evening brings a set menu featuring European dishes with occasional Asian influences. Limited opening hours require some planning, especially if you want to visit the wine bar next door, which is open only on Thursdays." - Kate Mann
