"Gideon Sweet is a relaxing experience that boasts “mostly well-executed dishes and intriguingly nuanced cocktails” according to Maggie Hennessy. She starts with the Green Lady cocktail, a drink that’s the “luscious, drinkable essence of a bowl of fresh fruit.” The potato spiral is another can’t miss — a skewered, twice-fried Kennebec potato with “the pleasing crunch of an extra-thick chip” and served with a “delicious” dip — and warm king crab is an “impeccable selection of sweet, tender leg meat drenched in luscious uni butter.” To finish, a nostalgic apple tart paired with cheddar and brie ice cream oozes “just enough creamy, salty tang to make that sugary tart sing.”" - Jeffy Mai
