Left Bank’s American cuisine offers new takes on traditional bistro fare, with hearty entrees like braised beef short ribs with fresh polenta and a homemade “capriccio” with whole-roasted kid goat.

Gorgeous, delicious eats purchased from the farmers market that morning (so says the waiter). The service and food were both outstanding. If they have the scallops with corn, make sure to get it!!

Food is absolutely great, though portions are small-ish & prices steeper than avg (ex. $14 for a salad of just greens). Ravioli is delicious & cauliflower side is a must. Cozy, low noise, great staff.

Great "new american" restaurant. The fish was great! The "maple syrup pie" was good – sort of like a denser chess pie.

Turning out an eclectic mix of seasonal grub, including a dish made with Red Cockerel, “the chickeniest chicken you've ever tasted,” according to the chef.

Steak is a great choice, reasonable portion, delicious.

This "Contemporary City American" joint looks like a laid-back art collector's hunting lodge. Try the lamb tartare and pretend you also go hunting. Read more

Save room for the maple syrup pie thing. Looks ordinary, tastes amazing.

French toast is delicious. Staff are okay. Coffee is skippable.

Chicken liver pâté followed by the seared scallops. Tiramisu to end the evening.
Bailey McCannJune 30, 2013
The burger is the size of a slider. So you certainly won't feel bad about eating the whole thing. ($10 no sides)
Maryam AlyFebruary 26, 2014
Start your meal off with the chicken liver pâté.

Love the atmosphere, great tuna and steak tartar appetizers.
Maximum BurgerJuly 23, 2017
Great location, interior and service. But tomato soup was bland and watery, and chopped grilled cheese was way heavy on the bleu cheese
