Hummingbird

Hummingbird folds New Orleans influence into a polished neighborhood restaurant at Dock 1053. Brunch and dinner move between oysters, rich sauces, seasonal vegetables, biscuits, and cocktails without turning the menu into a theme exercise. Chef Coleen Speaks brings a caterer's hospitality to the room, making celebratory plates feel equally suited to an ordinary weeknight.
