It's not just about (really) great wine at Bar Etoile, though their expansive list with a French focus is certainly a winner. It's also about their product-driven cooking presenting simple dishes that allow ingredients to shine. Chef Travis Hayden's menu may be streamlined but there's something for everyone in this comfortable spot. Appetizers like snap peas served over a bed of lightly smoked ricotta and dressed with nettle gremolata and pickled coriander are proof that this spot looks to the market for its influences. Perfectly moist striped bass with a crispy skin and topped with salsa macha over caramelized sunchoke is a hit, as is the chocolate tart with passion fruit chantilly.
