French restaurant Allium hits all the right spots
Straightforward cuisine is front and center By Will Ayers
There are a lot of things I liked about eating at Allium, but the best part of a meal there is when the feeling wells up inside you that these folks just get it. The cookery is nearly always eye-opening, the sauces especially bold and inventive. Service is casual but polished in all the right places. The wine list is, in a literal sense, adorable: an affordable tour of fine French producers, few bottles above $50. You can easily have the kind of meal here that stretches late into the night, without meaning to.
I ate here a few weeks ago, delicious! and I agree with Will, the place just gets it.
