Lento’s Mission Lento is a fine dining restaurant committed to providing unique and delicious dishes using food procured as much as possible from local, sustainable and organic purveyors. The word “Lento” is Italian for slow, and we have embraced the slow food movement. This means making everything from scratch, from food that was raised by sustainable and ecologically friendly practices. This means no artificial growth hormones, unnecessary antibiotics, or rendered animal by-products, and a sparing use of pesticides. There are no microwaves or steam tables in our kitchen and everything is cooked fresh to order. Below are just a few of our major local providers, whom we are happy to promote on the menu so you know exactly where your food is coming from. The high quality of this food and the labor to prepare it are expensive and that is the reason for our prices. We hope you enjoy your dining experience and are happy your dollars are staying in the local economy from farm to plate. |
