The cleanliness and simplicity of the dining room and the summer terrace are matched by the freshness and balance of the dishes. Try the veal tail and tongue terrine with provolone and turnips; rabbit ravioli with tarragon pesto, snap peas, and smoked provola; or the croaker in a puffed rice crust with seaweed sauce.
