Packed to its exposed wood rafters on a rainy Sunday night, the restaurant attracts a hearty dinner crowd of families, MIT types and the aforementioned business travelers. White tablecloths have been cast aside in favor of exposed metal tabletops, leaving a casual sort of place where you can ask to have a bite of your neighbor’s entrée (or at least that’s what the guy sitting next to me found appropriate). Finding high-quality food in such a low-pretense atmosphere is certainly admirable, and this...
...possibly recommend The Salton Sea? If it could, this nasty film would make you smell the disgusting food on the table. And that says nothing about its casual sadism.

The antiquey cranberry-red wood cabinets, the slightly crowded chocolate-brown tables, and the water served from retro glass bottles all evoke the aura of a casual café in the French countryside. At the same time, large colorful canvases, spotlighted with wiggly black wire lamps, dangle across the wall to create a funky, artistic vibe. The room is cheerful and inviting, radiating with a warm glow from the contrasting hues of vivid yellow and deep red. The high...
