Haerfest

This Fremont addition to the General Harvest universe (joining Raccolto , Vendemmia , and others) is quite indistinguishable from the rest. There’s a ball of burrata here, a crudo there, and a handful of fresh pasta dishes in a new-construction space that doesn’t have much character. While the menu has a couple of hits—thanks to the bread service and tender agnolotti with escarole that soaks up silky pork sugo—nothing is groundbreaking. If you need a quiet first date spot in the neighborhood to chat over a cocktail and a light dinner, have at it. But don’t go out of your way to snag a table.
