Our Comments

Naomi Pomeroy (Ripe, clarklewis) opened this kitschy, meat-focused French bistrot in 2007. Menus are fixed-price and leisurely (think slow food, slow dining), with no choices or substitutions. The place is tiny, with two communal tables framing a generous wooden prep table where you can watch your meal take shape. Nice.

Call ahead for either the 18:30 (6:30pm) or 20:00 (8pm) seating. Weekend brunch is from 11 to 14 (2pm).

What is BEAST??? An adventurous eaters paradise. A Restaurant with a European edge- with a nod to the French, and roots in the Local farm Scene. Each Day Chef Naomi Pomeroy along with her Sous Chef Mika Paredes, develop menus based on what sounds great, right and true for One Day in time.
