 Gary's is the latest occupant of a vintage two-story, red-brick building overlooking Beargrass Creek in the historic Butchertown neighborhood. The downstairs dining room lined with banquettes and populated by a dozen or so tables runs the length of the narrow building. Upstairs a cozy wood-accented bar with soft leather sofas and armchairs provides a casually luxurious setting. Traditional and contemporary classics are featured on chef Harold Baker's menu. Steaming spinach-topped oysters Rockefeller arrive with still-warm hollandaise sauce. Dressing is made-to-order for each Caesar salad. The USDA Prime filet is worthy of any upscale steakhouse and comes with green peppercorn brandy sauce and duchess potatoes. If you like your entrées encased, try either the potato-encrusted grouper or the lamb en croûte wrapped in phyllo. Desserts run the standard gamut, and if appetite warrants, you can get a tasting portion of all five for just $10. The reasonably priced wine list has many by-the-glass selections and the mostly youthful staff is cheerful and willing to please.
