Seasonal New American

I visited Custom House Tavern about a year ago on a business trip and have wanted to return ever since. I just can't get it off my mind! Everything I had was amazing. Because this restaurant has a seasonal menu, it's pointless for me to go into what I had, however, I will say that their homemade limoncello was a revalation. The "revalation" I had was that drinking limoncello did not have to be an experience akin to drinking Pledge. This was special - sweet, lemony, a just the faintest hint of fresh rosemary and thyme. If you go to this restaurant and they happen to have a batch, I highly recommend it.

And lastly, this is an a la carte, small plates, restaurant. Go with friends, order a bunch of things and share. And get some limoncello.
