Seasonally-inspired and chef-owned, Sycamore is a neighborhood restaurant in the most honest sense. The Newton Center eatery emphasizes locally-sourced produce, fish and meat, drawing on the classic cuisines of the Spanish, French and Italian countryside for a menu that’s rustic and wholesome. Brick lined walls enhance the neighborhood bistro vibe in the petit dining room while the open kitchen adds an element of energetic bustle.

Designed to complement the cuisine, the beverage program includes a wine list that’s focused on passionate small producers, a selection of beers that leans mostly towards domestic craft selections and cocktail offerings that include classic drinks and sipping spirits.
