Smith

Smith has good beer, good wine, good cocktails, good food.

On a recent visit Michael had a cuban pork sandwich that was grilled flat and delicious, with some sort of hot/sweet pepper relish. The homemade potato chips were thin and crispy and delicious. The rest of our table ordered cauliflower mac n cheese which was creamy with a yummy crust on top. Loved the big elbow macaronis.

The basic green salad was nice and fresh, with a very lovely vinaigrette. The brussels sprouts were pefect--tender and bright green, with a fresh flavor and a lovely smattering of thick bacon chunks. Hmm, that bacon would have been good on the slightly bland mac n cheese.In past visits we have had good fries and burgers.

Last summer they made a ridiculously good salad with grilled peaches, balsamic yumminess, and little dabs of very fresh ricotta.

The taxidermy and musty books decor is fun, I guess. They have a juke box with lots of indie rock and motown, which is always a good thing. I would say I'm a fan of this place.
