The Local House

or intimate, bookcase-lined living room. Accommodating only 28 diners inside, plus a cozy eight-seat lazy-dog-lanterned bar, al fresco dining is also available on casual couches and communal plank tables. The Local House menu is largely Mediterranean-inspired spa cuisine – light on carbohydrates, salt and sugar – featuring fresh seafood such as mussels, salmon, branzino, jumbo prawns, and oysters, balanced by dishes with lamb, charcuterie & cheeses, and locally-sourced vegetables, herbs and fruits. The restaurant’s Specialty Drink program has been recognized for its innovative use of caviar and oysters in martinis, beautiful fruit garnishes, and a mason jar presented 22oz spicy Bloody Mary, a weekend brunch favorite which accompanies The Local House’s now-famous $16 Bottomless Mimosas.
