    Another memorable meal at Cure. This time we tried the Grilled Pork Chop (moist and flavorful) and the Stuffed Delicata Squash (surprising complexity and depth of flavors). Both were delicious! Service was great--attentive, responsive, but without hovering. We're looking forward to our next visit . .

    First time visiting Cure and I loved it!! My server was great and recommended the duck breast and although I’ve never had duck before I ended up really enjoying it! Especially the mushroom risotto 🥰 also the harvest salad and corn bread were delicious as well!
