Description:
GREENVILLE AVENUE. Hip and inventive, this side street restaurant brings an interesting dynamic to the Greenville Avenue landscape: Tapas inspired by the cuisines of, among other countries, Japan and Thailand. Though the setting may seem unassuming, the interior of the old home the restaurant occupies has been smartly redecorated with close attention paid to the concepts of defined lines, dramatic geometry and natural harmony. The food, all the while, ranges from the familiar (lamb chops, steamed clams, sushi) to the more exotic (squid, pad thai, chicken panang). |
