Castagna Description:
Castagna is austere and classy, a perfect spot to settle in for a fine meal. Simplicity characterizes this satisfying bistro, whose name signifies the humble chestnut. From its elegantly simple interior to plates amply filled but never cluttered, Castagna showcases clean lines and clean tastes that cherish flavor above everything else. The cuisine blends French and Italian, but with just enough latitude to avoid both orthodoxy and the ersatz. Dishes mix fresh local ingredients and imported products. There's an occasional, flavorful surprise, but it's subtle enough to make you wonder why you hadn't imagined the combination before. Some dishes are as traditional as grilled flat-iron steak with shoestrings, while others are as fascinating as quail with porcini, spring onion and parsley salad. Anyone craving a more casual (and less expensive) experience can check out Café Castagna right next door.
