Hero — the room at full service
Open fire kitchen · Est. 2019
Everything here has met the flame
A single hearth, a room that smells of oak smoke, and a menu that changes when the market says so. Come hungry, stay late.

Our story
A room built around a fire
We started with one fire and a stubborn idea: that almost everything tastes better when it has been near smoke. No gas, no induction — just oak, ash and a grill that gets moved up and down all night.
The menu is short because the fire only has so much room. What lands on it depends on the boats, the growers two valleys over, and whatever the kitchen has been curing in the cellar.
Sit at the counter if you want to watch. Sit in the back if you want to disappear for three hours. Both are the right answer.
