Everything about Tusk, a spot that uses Middle Eastern cooking methods to highlight the best and brightest seasonal ingredients, is well-executed. Omnivores and vegetarians alike are seduced by the ever-evolving menu that features the best-tasting and most interesting salad…well, anywhere, served alongside simple but delicious meat and fish offerings. The drink menu is equally polished and ensures that by the end of your meal you’ll be as blissed out as the massive photo above the bar depicting Keith Richards floating in a pool.
