Standing sentry on a busy corner, Stubborn Seed is sexy and sleek with an industrial chic décor and glass-fronted display kitchen. Chef Jeremy Ford brings the heat, and his ambitious and brashly creative cooking is best enjoyed by way of the tasting menu.
The aged cheddar and jalapeno biscuit, brushed with honey and served with bread and butter pickles, is proof that nothing is standard here. Yellowfin crudo sided by tangy Asian pear slices is topped with a creamy buttermilk sauce, while black grouper tartare is hit with just the right amount of spice. Ricotta gnudi looks as gorgeous as it tastes, but don’t overlook the truffle chicken—it’s a well-deserved signature. The wins keep on coming through dessert, with stunning and edgy selections.
