"This intimate restaurant from James Beard semifinalist Erin Miller was made for date night. The menu rotates regularly, but always highlights locally sourced, seasonal New England ingredients used in unexpected ways. You might find ash-roasted beet carpaccio with candied hazelnuts and a tart wild blueberry mostarda, or a crispy marinated duck breast with coffee-roasted carrots. To level the night up, consider the chef’s tasting menu, a 5-course affair for $140 with an optional wine pairing. Whatever you do, make sure to get a plate of the flaky buttermilk biscuits with smoked maple miso butter. You’ll be glad that you did." - Celina Colby, Valerie Li Stack
