Foreign Cinema

Editorial Review

Beloved by local foodies for nights when the multiplex won’t do. New twist on dinner and a movie mobbed by Independent Film Channel addicts and film-noir romantics. Foreign classics and cult favorites projected onto concrete wall, though films are backdrop, not main event. Menu a tad too cute—apps are “premieres” and mains are “features”—but sophisticated and distinctive. Mediterranean-inspired menu made from sustainably farmed organic ingredients. Impressive oyster bar.
