Description

Despite the dull-as-dishwater name, The Smith is among the finest gastropubs in the city. The lamb schnitzel sings with flavor, and you get two massive slabs poised on a potato salad zapped with French grebiche sauce, laced with mustard and capers. The joint pays special attention to vegetables, and any of the salad choices is superb, especially the so-called knife and fork Caesar salad, which has a transportingly good vinaigrette, and huge, cheese-embedded croutons. Drinks are on the expensive side, but the grub is inexpensive and compelling, and the place is big enough that you can probably get in anytime without reservations.

    The Smith: Dull Name, Sharp Food

    | Tue, July 28, 2009

    When the Spotted Pig grunted into town four years ago, it was hailed as our first gastropub. It wasn't, really, though. Piggy was indeed superb, but, in actuality, it was an upscale Italian restaurant masquerading as a gastropub. But the label had... More »
