Creative French small plates with a serious wine list in a cozy room; excellent food and hospitality, but portions run small and prices add up.
L'insolite delivers exceptional food quality with inventive contemporary French small plates—beef cheeks, gnocchi, and chocolate mousse earn consistent praise—paired with strong wine guidance and genuinely welcoming service. Tight quarters and occasional slow pacing during peak hours prevent grade A territory, though mostly reliable execution and a loyal following confirm solid neighborhood standing among the area's better dining destinations.
One caveat: Pricing climbs with multiple small plates; value feels tighter in large groups
