An open kitchen and a hip, warehouse feel with bare bricks and concrete floors keep this place hopping at all times with the chic set. There's an American bistro atmosphere complete with menu and extensive wine list written on chalkboard. One of the best ways to experience the food is with his three-course lunch for $19 with a glass of wine for $3 more. The venison chili topped with Gruyere is heavenly, and the crispy pork belly will leave you wanting more. The kitchen is equally at home with seafood, be it mussels, tuna tartare or trout.

The risotto at Gravitas is full of contrasts. Although the ingredients change with the menu, there's always a balance between textures, flavors and temperatures. Recently, the risotto had English peas and was topped with lightly dressed greens, red onion and a pecorino crisp. The acidity of the dressing cut some of the richness of the risotto, and the result was divine. This attention to detail is evident throughout the menu and the space itself and is a reason to keep going back to what is... More »
Gravitas earned its reputation as the hippest kitchen in the city by reinterpreting slow-food classics. Chefs Jason Gould and Scott Tycer put an Alpine spin on macaroni and cheese with an item the menu calls housemade German spaetzle baked with Gruyre.
