Fresh seasonal ingredients

What's Fresh This Season

We source from local farms and trusted purveyors — what arrives at the door shapes what ends up on the plate.

Ingredient of the moment

Heirloom Tomatoes

Late summer's finest gift — heirloom tomatoes are at their absolute peak right now. We're sourcing a vibrant mix from Hillside Farms & our friends at the Downtown Napa Farmer's Market Patch.

Expect them raw in a chilled salad with aged strawberry balsamic and torn basil, slow-roasted as a base for our house pasta sauce, and the shining star in our Gazpacho.

"The season tells us what to cook. We just listen."
