Great Wine List* Click here for rating key
 Sure, the setting still stuns, original oils dot the dining room, the service staff shines, and a courtyard fountain view enchants just as it did twenty years ago (and counting). Just don’t anticipate any great epiphanies coming from the kitchen. Classic preparations of rack of lamb, New York steak and grilled salmon are fine and dandy, but need to be taken to a next or new level. Cuisine is trapped in a time machine, its dial eternally on the 1960s. There’s classic Caesar salad for two (prepared tableside), rack of lamb for two (carved tableside, of course), and other dishes you can surmise without ever looking at a menu; if you guessed duck and crème brûlée, give yourself a pat on the back. Desserts come in two’s too, from the bananas Foster and cherries jubilee to the crêpes Suzette. The wine list wins, focusing in on Northern California and France’s Bordeaux region. For dog owners only: The professional waitstaff is pleased to escort your four-legged friend to a lovely patio table. |
