Mesa & Manifesto Review

This modern minimalist restaurant with stark walls, floor-to-ceiling windows, and an open kitchen serves up the comfort foods of home while making good use of fresh local ingredients. The menu changes frequently, but established favorites include the beetroot Carpaccio with goat cheese, soy and ginger salmon with green tea soba, T-bone steak, and beef pie. Wines, chosen from an impressive list, are served in specially imported glasses. Save room for the homemade desserts. There is alfresco dining on the second-floor patio during the warmer months. This is as comfortable and as unpretentious as fine dining gets. On weekends, Mesa also serves one of the best home-style brunches in town.

About Our System

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.

Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.

The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
