"The building in the gritty Warehouse District that once housed Justin Yu’s lauded restaurant Oxheart is now home to Theodore Rex, a casual but sophisticated restaurant where the chef’s capabilities remain on display. Expect to be wowed — first, by the look of dishes like the soured pork sausage with cucumber, tomato toast, and sweet melted onions in buttermilk — then, by the flavor. The restaurant updated its menu last year replacing half of it with vegan and vegetarian dishes where produce shines, like its agnolotti with cream and Muscadine grapes, and smoked and braised greens served in a rich “likker” with beans." - Brittany Britto Garley
