Garden At The Cellar Description:
A gastropub inside The Cellar bar, offering a menu that features local and organic ingredients, prepared in contemporary European and American styles.
The last thing you'd expect to find sprouting in an eatery adjoining a student-filled pub is fresh herbs---of the savory sort, anyway---but sprout they do at this sweet, simple little New American dinner joint. After all, chef Will Gilson himself sprouts from the family who runs Groton's Herb Lyceum; naturally, his truly interesting menu---part American comfort, part Mediterranean warmth---is redolent with aromatics as well. Thyme, marjoram, tarragon and many other herbs suffuse without overpowering the entire repertoire---adding nuance to full-flavored nibbles like warm, citrus-tinged olives, nicely done chicken croquettes and juicy meatballs in fresh tomato sauce. Evocative spices do likewise for a lovely dish of warm almonds and even for one of the most intriguingly dressed Caesar salads we've had. The same goes for entrées, but we often make a meal of sides alone---or for that matter, a dessert; puréed parsnips are pudding-sweet. Downstairs, there's a cavernous bar.
