This historic restaurant, frequented by the local gentry, has a private club-like atmosphere. The menu is equally classic, offering traditional favorites like steaks, prime rib and filet of sole. The food is consistently top-notch, with exemplary service to match. Most of the waiters have been there so long that they are practically local institutions. Outdoor dining is available in comfortable "cabins," weather permitting. The bar is a popular hangout for regular patrons, who may be dressed in anything from jeans to long formals. The entire restaurant recently underwent a $13 million renovation, which preserved the dignified charm the restaurant has built over its 100+ years, but added some modern sparkle.
