Agnes Restaurant & Cheesery
•••
Neighborhood vibes with good cocktails and wine, and the memorable (and gf!) cornbread eclair. Any meat on the open grill, and any of the twists on American classics, like the loaded baked potato dumplings, are worth an order. At brunch, order the sticky toffee pancakes for the table (also gf!).
