With chic décor as bright and cheerful as its playful Mediterranean cuisine, Tusk redefines farm-to-table and locavore dining by working directly with farms to grow new produce specifically for its dishes. This helps make it a worthy destination for a unique brunch, vegetable-heavy dinner or just a quick plate of hummus and yogurt cocktail. $$$.
