Just off the Quirk Hotel lobby in Charlottesville is the restaurant, The Pink Grouse. An open kitchen design and a translucent private dining room doubling as wine storage and display serve as the restaurant’s bookends, complementing the lofty and transparent layering consistent throughout the building. Open to hotel guests and the community alike, the public entry peels off the main street, and the dining room’s private terrace feels like a pocket park in the city, bracketed between the new building and the two existing historic houses on West Main Street.
