Elevated American cuisine lures diners downtown, even on weeknights. High ceilings and arched windows with marble and brass accents frame the comfortable booths and cozy tables extending out from the hub -- a central exhibition kitchen. Fresh and American, with Asian touches and unexpected conjunctions. Fruit glazes and natural reductions add subtle flavor. For appetizers, the wild-mushroom strudel with sweet-onion jam or crab cakes alert your palate that something is up. Entrees range from the classics -- a filet mignon with bleu cheese crust -- to thick pork loin chops with sweet potato. Share the dessert sampler and fight over it.
