When Sweet Laurette (formerly in this location) closed, local foodies despaired, but Finistere is a worthy replacement. With a staff whose experience includes Per Se, Canlis, Tilth and other swoon-inducing restaurant names, you expect (and get) a high level of food and service: think saffron risotto with seafood, rabbit lasagna, steak tartare, multiple cheese-plate options, and smoked-salmon tartine for brunch.
