This French/Italian restaurant, located in the shadow of the State House, has become one of Boston's hottest eateries since its opening in 1998. The dark and cool interior has cherry wood and indigo walls for a modern, elegant feel. The menu blends European influences and New England ingredients. Appetizers include foie gras ravioli served with quince and parsnips. Crispy duck served with black figs and mustard slaw is amazing. Desserts are superb. Try the Vanilla Bread Pudding or Sweet Potato Pithivier.
