Sustain Restaurant + Bar takes its name literally says Lee Klein, who says that, despite other restaurants’ futile attempts at the whole local ingredient thing, “one bite into Sustain’s 50-mile salad and any thoughts of gimmickry evaporate like morning dew.” (“Eater”, Wednesday, February 9, 2011, by Lesley Abravanel)
A “fine restaurant,” says Klein, Sustain also “looks good,” where “music is appropriate (not too loud in style or volume), the thermostat is set in sane fashion, and guests are attended to in a welcoming and competent manner at the front door.” Staff is “trained well,” and words and phrases served up by Klein to describe the food include “flawless,” “hefty and heartwarming,” “a gratifying mosaic of tastes,” and “captivating caravan of flavors.” Bottom line? “Yup, Sustain is real. And it is real good.” [MNT]
