Oyster Tuesdays are the best nights to go! Oysters from the east coast are the absolute best in town (and I’ve tried many!) I always have to get the popovers & gnocchi to go with for a very satisfying happy hour. Love this place.

Great service and ambiance. Some nice unique menu options. I found the food to be good, but not stellar, especially for the price.

It was wonderful to get a table outside because inside was quite loud, and it was beautiful outside. We thought our server was not going to be nice when we first sat down, but she ended up being sweet and professional. The food was delicious!
Unpretentious but well designed, and complete with servers in heavy-metal T-shirts (or whatever the slacker du jour attire may be), Foreign & Domestic presents itself as a neighborhood café --- one that just happened to be opened by ex-NYC chefs, vets of Per Se, Gramercy Tavern and Bouley. An interesting starter is the fried pig ears and Brussels sprouts with pickles and hot sauce. Pig ears provide a complex texture: crunchy, fatty, crispy all at the same time. For an entrée, the braised boar shoulder with persimmon chutney, leeks and green tomato jam is among the boldest in terms of flavor. But too many items on too many visits could be categorized as bland, a seemingly impossible feat for a spot so focused on freshness and innovation. The brightest spot may be desserts, including a chocolate layer cake with candied hazelnuts and coffee ice cream. Service is hit or miss.
