Unconventional Diner
Modern New American
The seafoam-green booths say classic American diner; the kale nachos say something else is going on. This Shaw spot runs on familiar comfort food remixed just enough to keep things interesting, from meatloaf with sriracha and morel gravy to cauliflower with tahini and fried chickpeas. Brunch draws a crowd for egg dishes and sandwiches, and the lemon meringue pie is not optional. A Michelin Bib Gourmand, and you'll want a reservation.
