This is a beautiful restaurant and you will find amazing food in a charming setting. I love starting the meal off with lolli-pop lamb chops or crab bisque. These are both great choices. For the entree, you almost have to get one of the spectacular steaks. The ribeye is my favorite. But I also like the slow roasted prime rib. It's mouth watering.
