Why they're an Icon

James Beard Award2022

From the OpenTable editors: Bistro-style cooking with a focus on local, seasonal ingredients has earned chef Caroline Glover national acclaim for her restaurant Annette: She’s won a James Beard Award for Best Chef: Mountain and was named one of Food & Wine’s Best New Chefs. The cozy but modern dining room feels almost as if you’re eating at Glover’s home, and as you tuck into comfortable but thoughtful dishes like grilled beef tongue and marrow toast and a roasted half chicken with bitter greens, you’ll be glad you got the invite.

Philosophy

I created Annette for three simple reasons: To serve diners as though they were guests in my home. To make a place where people can share food and tell stories they'll remember. To prepare scratch-to-table and wood-fired fare that honors food producers, nourishes eaters and embodies craftsmanship, creativity and rustic simplicity.

Every si for dish we enjoyed was a surprise and an “oh my gosh this is amazing.” We had four small plates- pork tonnette which reminded me of France and was so refreshingly full of flavor; the pancetta salad, fresh and beautiful and the dressing just right; the orecchiette, rich and weighty tasting while looking delicate; and the sleeper hit - the tahini carrots! Both my friend and I were blown away by the tastes and textures. Carrots! Who knew. Overall a gorgeous dinner and wonderful staff. Great night!

What I love about this restaurant is first, the service is so friendly and attentive, they appear to always accommodate people's special requests. The Second, and perhaps most important thing, is the menu changes frequently. They are committed to seasonal ingredients and always have new items on the menu reflecting the current season's ingredients. They keep the favorites on the menu but may modify the sauce or accompaniment with the season. It's a relatively small restaurant so the ambiance is welcoming and friendly. I highly recommend this acclaimed restaurant .

Another yummy meal at Annette! The tartine was particularly delicious! The mussels were fine, but the quantity was quite limited for the price, and it tasted like they were in pasta sauce. The chicken was good, but extremely vinegary. The server helped us with the bill in the end to make sure we got the happy hour prices.

Annette had been on our list to try for a very long time, and we finally made it and it was everything we had heard about and more. We sat at the bar because we didn't make our reservation far enough ahead for a table seat, but it turned out to be a fantastic experience! It was amazing to watch the chefs in action creating such amazing tastes in such a small space! The bartenders were all very attentive and helpful in making both cocktail and food recommendations. We had the Pork Tonnato as an appetizer and were awed at the combination of flavors. We were initially turned off by the fact that the tuna was canned, but our server was so passionate about the dish that we had to try it and were so glad we did! The ambiance is casual yet refined; a wonderful place to spend a few hours enjoying good food, good wine and good conversation. We will definitely be back and bring friends with us.

Our dinner was amazing with the most balanced and colorful flavors. Additional salt and pepper are not needed in any way. It's gourmet comfort cuisine without it being pretentious. It is wonderful to see how systematic everyone works together, and our server was especially attentive. We'll be back!

We had a friend coming in from out of town and wanted to eat somewhere that was not a chain that he could get at home. The service was exceptional and the food was fresh and unique. Annette is a splurge for us, but certainly delicious and worth going back to for special occasions or company. I hope to return.

This was one of the best dinners I have had in a very long time. The food was fresh, flavorful, generous in serving size, and the extra touches of unique sauces and pairings (rhubarb with pork, grilled asparagus with turnips and cheese, and grilled sourdough croutons in the fresh salad and the double fried frites!) I am only disappointed that I hadn’t been to Annette sooner.
