With so few people being served at one time, the preparation of each dish receives the attention it deserves, and the results of such deliberation are palatable.

They've assembled an eclectic menu catering to meat lovers, lean protein seekers, and oft-forgotten vegetarians alike with plates like grilled filet mignon, artichoke crusted salmon, and butternut squash ravioli. • 9 Elm Street, Danvers, 01923, (978) 774-9436, 9elm.com $$$ Robbat and Ben Maganzinni have added a new venue to their credit.
