Palena

Schizoid diners delight at split personality neighborhood ristorante: languorous candlelight seating with three silver forks or knockout bistro plates at cross-legged café. Ripped jeans or rhinestones? The chic of 1970s Rome applied to Americana grocery list, from the redwood forest to the New York island. Signature slow-roasted chicken or gourmet burgers with clout. A meal of thrilling mouthfuls runs between ten and two hundred bucks, you decide. Still the under-appreciated wise guys of Cleveland Park.
