 Versailles-inspired décor lends Chez Philippe a romantic ambience mixed with a genteel Old South feel. Chef Reinaldo Alfonso offers three-, five- and seven-course tasting menus of Southern cuisine. Choices vary by season, and the chef relies heavily on locally sourced produce and meats. Dishes have included papas rellenas (crawfish-stuffed potatoes) and the Neola Farms beef duo comprised of strip loin and Cuban-style braised beef. Alfonso is also known for his charcuterie platter. Many dishes are rich, but the kitchen knows how to respond to dietary requirements. French selections dominate the wine list, but other wine-growing regions are represented as well, including American, Italian, some Spanish, and German. Wines by the glass include sparkling and Champagne. The dining room provides a fine setting for The Peabody’s high tea, which requires reservations made 24 hours in advance and begins at 2 p.m.
