Profile

Not every artist is starving, and the ones with bank accounts and hearty appetites would do well to make this their home away from home among the West Chelsea galleries. Hanging lanterns, barn siding, and artwork contribute to the funky decor, and the bar is the roomy, welcoming sort that solo diners find appealing. It's hard to find a clunker on the Med-American menu. The quick saute of zucchini with toasted almonds is something your mother would never have imagined—a vegetable that could spoil your appetite. — Rob Patronite and Robin Raisfeld

Recommended Dishes

Saute of zucchini, $9, roast chicken, $23, New York shell steak, $34

After a great appetizer (fried bacon) and friendly service at the bar, 3 of us were seated and everything went downhill. After the server messed up our order, bringing us 2 orders of grits and no order of green beans, she completely ignored us for the rest of our service, showing up only once, 15 minutes after we were finished eating. Then, all 3 of us that got sick that night - definitely not worth returning to.
