Circo Combines Circus Whimsy With Fine Cuisine

What kind of place is Circo? It's a place to get a great meal, as I've already mentioned. But the restaurant has more depth than that. On a LivingSocial deal that felt like a hand-picked, secret discount just for us, we went back just a few nights ago to try it again. It didn't disappoint.


Circo is the kind of place where you can enjoy a beautiful meal outside watching passersby.


Circo is the kind of place that replaces your bread and water, rather than bringing in the "old" setting, when you move indoors due to the rain.


Circo is the kind of place where the Captain comes by to apologize for the rain--as if it were his fault.


Circo is the kind of place where a waiter comes by to fold your napkin in a point when you get up from your seat.


Circo is the kind of place that surprises you with a free sampling of red wine soaked cipollini onions when you show particular interest in the preparation. We are very happy when people really enjoy our food, they say.


Circo is the kind of place that gives you a free taste of Cointreau when you ask what type of liqueur you detect in the panna cotta.


Circo is the kind of place where the whimsy of the circus meets the gravitas of fine cuisine.
