A restored vintage barn with chandeliers overhead sets the tone for this upscale casual restaurant inside the NOVA Live entertainment complex in Manassas. The menu is eclectic in the way that works, running from charred grilled octopus with romesco and chimichurri to dry-aged strip steak finished with harissa butter, and closing on espresso-stuffed beignets. Book ahead; it books out fast, and the surrounding music venue makes a natural second act.
