Eleven Eleven Mississippi

LAFAYETTE SQUARE. Set in a former factory, the restaurant is a cozy mix of brick, wood, leather, and copper. It features two levels, fireplaces, and an exhibition kitchen, and it's become a regular destination for city diners. The menu treads the ground between Californian and Italian fare, offering dishes like potoato-crusted halibut and braised rabbit with goat cheese polenta. They're a great prelude to dessert treats like the locally-favored gooey butter cake, tempered with a glass of cold milk.
