Pure and Proper has redefined what an elevated dining experience can be. From the moment you walk in, you’re not just a guest—you’re part of something special. The cocktail program is masterful—creative, balanced, and delivered with both precision and flair. The Negroni was a standout, but every drink on the menu is crafted with the same elevated attention to detail.
The food? Impeccable. The arugula salad was crisp and bright, the mussels layered with flavor and served with gluten free bread or sourdough, and the pork chop and pork belly were pure comfort, elevated to fine dining. The Brussels sprouts are not to be missed. And the chocolate flourless cake? A decadent finish that sealed the evening with delight.
But what truly sets Pure and Proper apart is the spirit of the place. The owner’s infectious enthusiasm radiates through design and decor and the staff, whose camaraderie adds a heartfelt, human dimension to the experience. It’s rare to find a restaurant where excellence feels so personal.
We’ll be returning often—not just for the food, but for the feeling. This isn’t just a great restaurant. It’s a place you want to be part of.
