We go for the big cheese, and charcuterie too, at Harvey's You can choose charcuterie plates with varieties of meat and cheese, but we kept it simple with a rose-like round of thin-sliced fennel-scented finnochiona salami and a happy contingent of accompaniments.Charcuterie.

Accessibility: A step bars independent wheelchair access to the front door, but a side door, the dining area and the restrooms all appear accessible to wheelchair users.
