Located in a renovated historic house on South Oak Street, within easy walking distance of the gondola station.

Staple dishes include scallops with pork belly, seared foie gras, slow-braised bison short rib and elk T-bone. There is also a full vegetarian and vegan menu, making it one of the town's most highly rated options for plant-based dining. Brunch is served on Sundays.
