45 Bistro

HISTORIC DISTRICT. Brick walls adorned with artwork set the scene for a visual feast at 45 Bistro, which also features a long, curved bar, a covered courtyard, and inviting upholstery. These physical attractions go hand-in-hand with the kitchen's eminently satisfying cuisine, which takes lovely ingredients and treats them to seemingly effortless preparations. Look for a luscious lasagna composed of scallops, mascarpone, and spinach, or consider a Black Angus filet that gets a measure of spice with crushed peppercorns. Other possibilities include herb-roasted chicken, pan-seared grouper, and salmon served Mediterranean style with artichokes and olives.
