Field and Vine - Review - Somerville - Boston - The Infatuation

"The dining room at Field and Vine feels like it could be overtaken by nature before dessert arrives. Knotted vines hang from the ceiling and plants seem to sprout from every wall and corner of the old industrial warehouse. The obvious move here is date night, but the truth is Field and Vine is good for almost any occasion. Like just about every Camberville restaurant, this is a place you can waltz into with jeans and a hoodie, but the whole Fern Gully vibe might make you want to dress up a little, order a nice bottle of riesling, and get some shellfish on ice for the table. The traditional Argentine asado at the center of the open kitchen adds a beautiful char to dishes like cabbage with spicy black garlic crema, brown butter and crispy rice, and grilled duck with punchy mustard seeds and sweet nectarine-habanada jam. The menu changes regularly, but you can always depend on sparkling oysters, bright crudos, and weekend steak specials that show why more restaurants should have an asado." - Catherine Smart
