The second restaurant endeavor of acclaimed chef/owner Aaron Silverman has made a big splash on the national food scene, being awarded two Michelin stars shortly after opening. If you're lucky enough to snag a table for the all-inclusive evening service, you'll be spoiled by the 8-10 course prix fix that's as inventive as it is delicious — but definitely at a price reserved for special occasions.

Book reservations well in advance, or keep an eye on @lastminutedinnerplans on Instagram for day-of openings. For a more low-key taste of the Pineapple and Pearls experience, reservations are also available for the Patio, with a menu of light snacks and cocktails.
