Restaurants

The Promontory is a restaurant and music venue that pays homage to the city’s cultural past.

Inspired by the fire pit council rings at Promontory Point, this neighborhood destination?s restaurant & bar are designed around a brick hearth. Chef Jared Wentworth, whose work at Dusek?s and Longman & Eagle garnered a Bib Gourmand & Michelin Star respectively, helms the kitchen. The menu reflects the simple tradition hearths represent in a modern context.
