The Caesar Salad is perhaps the most iconic salad in the world, yet it is rarely executed with the precision and quality it deserves. We believe that a great Caesar relies on the perfect harmony of salt, fat, acidity, and crunch. By going back to the traditional roots of this dish and utilizing artisanal ingredients, we have created a version that is both nostalgic and incredibly premium. This is the gold standard of salads, prepared fresh to order every single time.
The Foundation of Crisp Romaine
We never use bagged lettuce mixes. Our bar starts with whole heads of organic romaine lettuce. We use only the inner "hearts" where the leaves are the most succulent, sweet, and crisp. Each leaf is hand-washed in ice-cold water to maximize its structural snap. We then hand-tear the leaves into bite-sized pieces—a technique that prevents the bruising and oxidation that occurs with metal knives, ensuring your salad stays vibrant and fresh until the very last bite.
Artisanal Croutons and Aged Cheese
A salad is only as good as its textures. Our croutons are made in-house using leftover loaves of our artisanal sourdough. We toss the cubes in extra virgin olive oil, sea salt, and fresh garlic before slow-toasting them until they are shatteringly crisp. To provide the necessary savory depth, we use 24-month aged Parmigiano-Reggiano. We don't just sprinkle it on; we use large, hand-shaved curls of the cheese so you get a distinct, nutty bite of saltiness throughout the experience.
The Signature Dressing
Our dressing is the soul of this salad. We follow the traditional emulsion process, whisking together high-quality egg yolks, cold-pressed olive oil, fresh lemon juice, and a touch of Worcestershire sauce. We add a subtle hint of salt-cured Mediterranean anchovies and plenty of cracked black pepper to create a dressing that is thick, creamy, and undeniably bold. It perfectly coats every leaf without weighing it down, providing that classic, addictive flavor that has made the Caesar a global favorite for nearly a century.
