The neighbourhood bistro Knox-Henderson deserves: small room, warm service, a Bib Gourmand, and a menu that borrows from France and Italy without.
Order: Texas pecans with fried Castelvetrano olives; shrimp spaghetti; Meyer lemon tart.
Tip: Walk-ins at the bar are your best chance on short notice. The scone arrives before the menu and it is the best thing on the table.
