Crown Shy

Whipped Ricotta

A silky, cloud-like ricotta spread served with accompaniments that make it one of the most talked-about starters on the menu — deceptively simple and hard to stop eating.

Gruyère Fritters

Golden, crispy cheese fritters with a molten, savory center — the table's unanimous favorite starter

Beef Carpaccio

Thinly sliced raw beef with bright, acidic garnishes — a clean and elegant starter

Scallop Crudo

Raw scallop with citrus and radish — delicate, bright, and perfectly seasonal

Beef Tartare

A precisely seasoned raw beef preparation that balances richness and acidity — a reliable benchmark dish that the kitchen executes with confidence.

Seasonal pasta preparations that rotate but consistently draw praise for their texture and restrained, well-balanced saucing — a strong suit of the kitchen.

40-Day Dry-Aged Ribeye

Deeply flavored, expertly aged steak — the centerpiece entree for carnivores

Vegetable Dishes

Crown Shy's vegetable-forward plates punch well above their weight — roasted, charred, and composed with the same care as the protein mains, making them genuinely exciting rather than afterthoughts.

Roasted Lamb

Perfectly cooked lamb with seasonal accompaniments — rich and satisfying

Black Bass

Seasonal fish preparation with delicate, balanced flavors

Signature Cocktails

The bar program is a genuine draw — well-crafted, seasonally inflected cocktails that hold their own in a city with fierce competition at this tier.

Chickpea Tagine

Winter squash, olives and preserved lemon — a standout vegetarian option with North African flair

Desserts

Pastry finishes are polished and satisfying without being overwrought — a fitting close to a meal that values restraint throughout.

Sticky Toffee Pudding

Warm, dense toffee cake with apple sorbet — an indulgent British-inspired closer

Chocolate Tart with Ice Cream

Specialty Bread with Flavored Butter
