One of Tangletown's gems. If you want a really amazing dinner and have a few extra $$ to shell out, I HIGHLY recommend mkt. I've been here a handful of times for special occasions and NEVER disappoints. Spendy but if you know going in, it will be worth it. It's small so make a reservation and if warmer out ask to sit outside. The have one table that is partially outside.
