Lido Bottle Works

It sounds like a liquor store, but this handsome waterfront venue is a sleeper full-service restaurant hiding in swanky Lido Marina Village. Executive chef Joel Harrington applies the ace skills he picked up over decades in star kitchens under top toques such as Marcus Samuelsson. Hyperseasonal and prettily plated, his notable creations include Dory Fleet catches, opulent Iberico DINING GUIDE “secreto” pork, a solid burger, and glorious chocolate mousse.
