 In its third generation of family ownership since opening in 1913, this stalwart is the oldest dining spot in the city. There's a separate bar area called Bar 42 where you can get a cocktail and a bite, including something from the raw bar. The main room is awash with classic ambience from historic local photos, tux-clad waitstaff, banquettes and bustle. Chef Luc Pasquier presides over a heavily meat-and-seafood menu but shows his French roots in an ever-changing seven-course chef's tasting menu. The daily offerings include classics such as liver with bacon and onions, rack of lamb with mint-pea couscous, steak Diane, porterhouse and filet mignon steaks, Maine lobster and a fresh seafood trio. The wine list is well designed for the majority of the fare. Desserts range from Jack's original pies to tarte Tatin à la mode and house-made strawberry cotton candy.
