Therapy.

Formerly a kitschy tourist store, Therapy is a spacious, comfortable venue with décor that outdoes most anything Downtown. The openness is highlighted by the vaulted ceiling, providing an ample backdrop for the showcase kitchen where Ontiveros and his team toil. Still very new, Therapy is at its best when it challenges its diners. It’s already drawing hungry crowds, and I simply cannot wait until it’s running on all cylinders and Ontiveros is running the show unbridled. Rumor has it a specials chalkboard is in the works, a happy place where one might be able to find even more of the “nasty bits” the chef became known for in his former position. Until then, I’ll be content with another round of pig ears.
