We did however, save a little room for dessert.

We ran out of room to have an entrée as we ate our way through the rest of the menu. Depending on what your mood is, you could sit at the expansive bar and catch a featured sports game, or belly up to the open kitchen and gets a bird’s eye view of the culinary magic going on. The attention to detail from the menu items down to the artisan- made specialty dishware, serving vessels, and the focus to bring the outside-in did not go unnoticed. Seating is a mixture of tables of all sizes, heights and elevated perimeter booths. The food embraced the farm-to-table concept and so did the understated rustic country, meets industrial, meets steam punk attitude of the restaurant.

On this particular night, the patio was being utilized in full force. We loved it so much it made the trip back home! Chickpeas, thinly sliced apple, shredded Gouda and roasted pumpkin seeds were lightly dressed with an apple cider vinaigrette. We enjoyed the Carbonara with its translucent pork belly, crispy pancetta cubes, hidden sautéed onion and poached egg which is, after it’s served in front of you, pierced by the server and spread around so all points of the flatbread are nicely “eggefied.” The other flatbread we devoured was the D.O.C., which stands for “Denominazione di Origine Controllata.” In simple terms for us to understand, it is not a deep dish, cheesy bread, stuffed crust or any other else that would take away from this ultra-thin crust of gourmand flawlessness of buffalo mozzarella, basil and red chili!Īn endorsement by the restaurant staff is the Harvest Quinoa Salad and it was not to be missed. Hearthstone features four kitchens and among these is a wood oven for cooking an eclectic selection of flatbreads. What a treat it was when the server presented us with a stand-alone charcuterie menu with “meats, cheeses, breads & spreads.” The presentation of these will tickle you too, when the cured meats are laid out on pig shape platter. It’s a known fact that one of us could eat charcuterie every day and frequently has it at home for endless dinner snacking. The foie gras encompassed a rich earthiness that was complemented by the texture of the peanuts and the sweetness of the jelly. It was that delightful.Īnother first time experience for us was the FG&J foie gras mousse, Virginia peanuts and house-made jelly. One of us would order it again as a dessert. This, along with a bottle from Hearthstone’s extensive wine collection, might just be the perfect beginning to a romantic night. Guess what? It tasted great, maybe even better the next day, and the next for leftovers too. This star of the night, served in a mini spring-form pan, is one you smear on rustic bread and then drizzle with truffle honey. Our favorite was the baked ricotta with black pepper and Gouda.

We snacked on it through the entire meal. The pecorino added just the right amount of saltiness. We started with a fun appetizer of truffle popcorn with pecorino and chives. You know those times when you have a particular craving for something different? Welcome to Hearthstone, the place to satisfy your cravings! This particular evening, one of us was in the mood for something “trufflerific.” And she found it. Save room for the dark chocolate birthday cake with sweet and salty frosting - it arrives with four lit candles and is large enough to feed as many people.By Lisa Lynn Backus, CPCE, CMP & Michele Polci, CPCE, CMP Twenty-five wines are offered by the glass from a list of nearly 100 selections, spanning from Napa, France, Italy, New Zealand, Oregon and Australia. Complementing the fare is a list of craft beers ranging from Ballast Point Sculpin IPA to locally brewed Big Dog’s Red Hydrant Brown Ale. The pizza oven fired at 950 degrees bakes flatbreads in 90 seconds, resulting in Neapolitan-style pies with a crust that’s charred and covered with more sauce than cheese. Poached king salmon is an entrée especially worth ordering for the pea purée that accompanies it. Try the tender charred octopus that is blanched, braised, wood-roasted and served with smoked potatoes and chorizo aïoli. The expansive space includes a house-made-charcuterie station, an oyster bar, a pizza station, a long mixology bar and comfortable touches like couches and shuffleboard tables.

Classy décor is comprised of reclaimed wood and brick the bright ambience is enhanced by a high ceiling, open kitchen and large windows looking out on the patio. Two large ovens burn pecan wood, with one fired for the appetizers and the other for flatbreads. The restaurant’s name represents a hearth being the center of a home and a focus on flame.
