Owners Sarah and Tim have put in time at other restaurants around town and now have their own place in upper Fremont. (The restaurant is a block or so above Brad's Swingside and 1/2 block above Paseo.) The small but cozy place features a lunch counter that is cool to sit at if you are dining alone and shared tables elsewhere in the restaurant. What stands out with Persimmon is the thought that goes into getting just the right flavor even in something as seemingly simple as a turkey sandwich. Brunches on weekends can get hectic as more people are discovering this place – but even if you have to wait a few minutes it's worth it. They started serving dinner in June.
