The food is as breezy fresh as the patio, simple and slightly Southern, fried okra and hmm-boy pecan pie with brown butter ice cream. The top-dollar menu is short and chef-driven: Chorizo and wild rice risotto joins the snapper; shishito peppers-spiked charred octopus; and tzatziki and baba ganoush trim grilled lamb. The wine list is just as imaginative.
