  • Great for fine wines
Brian Dunsmoor’s namesake restaurant, Dunsmoor, is the latest iteration of his ongoing exploration of American heritage cooking. It is, first and foremost, a restaurant for the community that surrounds it, and a loving expression of the relentless research that has informed his cooking for the last ten years.

We offer the full menu at tables in our dining room and at the chef's counter, as well as at our outdoor tables. Reservations are recommended but we make every effort to accommodate walk-ins when possible.

Dunsmoor's wine bar, accessible either through the restaurant or via its own door on Ave 35, does not accept reservations and serves a limited menu of our raw and larder items.

Why they're an Icon

From the OpenTable editors: Few chefs can work a hearth like Brian Dunsmoor, who cut his teeth at Southern star Hatchet Hall before opening his namesake restaurant in 2022. The long tables adorned with flickering candles make the restaurant an ideal place for a date, as do fiery dishes like wood-roasted oysters and mushroom-crusted pork chops. The cornbread, slathered in cultured butter, is the stuff of dreams.

                                        Awesome food. A few funky flavors (in a good way). One of the more unexpected restaurants I’ve loved recently.

                                        Amazing!! Service and ambience were SO good, and food was SO tasty! Felt slightly expensive for two people, but honestly what even is expensive in this economy? Either way, we can’t wait to return to try all the food and even more wine.

                                        I had a great experience at Dunsmoor for New Years eve dinner. The food, staff and restaurant were memorable and superb. I ate all my food with no leftovers to enjoy the next day. Thank you for your hospitality and hope to return soon.

                                        It was our first time experiencing dining in this style, everyone was really friendly and the food was heavenly. It's my husband and I's first date night in a long while and I wanted to treat us. Their cornbread was so yummy and the mushroom crusted pork chops made me want to cry happy tears. Thanks so much for a great experience!
