Fodor's Expert Review Fig and Thistle Bistro

This intimate restaurant has been packing in the crowds nightly thanks to its modern bistro fare presented stylishly but without fuss. You could start with a delicious goat cheese and fig tart, for example, followed by a sumptuous steak with a red-wine-and-thyme sauce. The atmosphere is lively, and the staff runs things effortlessly well—but you'll need a reservation, especially on weekends.
