"Ponty Bistro serves a mix of Mediterranean and African food, with some lobster BLTs and truffle mac and cheese thrown in for good measure. The blend makes the place stand out—we challenge you to find escargot, kale salad, and Senegalese steak together anywhere else in the neighborhood. So swing by and eat crispy tuna at a candlelit table with someone you like. There’s a lot of outdoor seating here, and the indoor dining room is great for a slightly upscale date night." - neha talreja, hannah albertine, bryan kim, willa moore, sonal shah
