Filled Star - Denotes One PointFilled Star - Denotes One PointFilled Star - Denotes One PointFilled Star - Denotes One PointFilled Star - Denotes One Point by tom on 20 Nov 2006

Eat delicious, organic, and locally-sourced food in a warm, airy, contemporary space. That's what you'll do if you go to Farm 255. It's wonderfully refreshing to visit somewhere that takes such pride in serving well grown, local, seasonal food, and that doesn't seem to simply be paying lip-service to the idea. I started with clams served in a tomato and herb broth, with a black olive tapenade on the side, which was excellent. Main course was shrimp and grits, which seemed like a nice way to ease into real southern cuisine. I couldn't manage all the grits, but to be fair it was a huge serving, and very tasty. Pudding was a molten chocolate cake (kinda like a souffle), which totally finished me off in the best possible way. Service was impeccable, with fresh water provided without us even asking - very attentive but not overbearing. We sat inside (really nicely lit), but there is also an outside seating area with live music every night (even in November). Highly recommended.
