The Ordinary

An old bank on King street was repurposed into The Ordinary by the owners of FIG, creating an ocean-to-table restaurant that gives seafood an entirely new meaning. All oysters, fish, and crabs are sourced locally, as are vegetables and other ingredients on the menu. The Ordinary’s extensive drink menu is curated to enhance and complement their food’s many facets of flavor.
