Our story
We cook over fire because it is honest about itself.
A hearth does not let you hide. There is no dial to turn down and no timer to trust. You learn where the heat sits, you learn which corner of the grate is gentle, and you stand there paying attention for four hours.
Everything else follows from that. The menu is short because a single fire can only do so much at once, and it changes because we buy whatever the boats out of Matlacha and Pine Island actually caught rather than ordering to a list. Vegetables come up from growers inland, and in February that means the tomatoes are extraordinary and in August it means there are none.
The raw bar exists as the counterweight — cold, sharp, and untouched by heat, so the room has somewhere to start. Sit at it if you are on your own. It is the best seat in the house and the only one we will not take a reservation for.
Cook one thing properly, then get out of its way.
