This small west side bistro is both dark and romantic...nearly dark enough to dine in the buff. But better to dine fully dressed and let executive chef Vicki Swartz knock your socks off with her flawless execution of intimate, casual cuisine. The seasonal menu pairs with a vibrant mix of clientele, from "ladies who lunch" to younger couples. Brunettes has gained a reputation as a "family friendly" hot spot for the discriminating palate.
