by chezp

This table-service eatery offers wholesome American fare. Menu items include calamari ($12), braised beef short rib ($13), and sea scallops ($13) for starters. Entrees include fettucine with shrimp ($20.99), prime rib ($32), New York strip ($35), lamb loin ($34), rigatoni fiesolana ($23), and grilled salmon ($27). Desserts are $4.49–$6.49.

Star chef Todd English presents upscale, inventively prepared seafood at this visually striking establishment. The teppan seared sea scallops ($18) were a savory adventure, but the "dancing fish" was disappointing. Other entrees include choices such as gulf grouper ($37) and "Cantonese" lobster ($60). Separate, lighter menu at the crowded cafe/bar. Not kid-friendly.

Grilled and rotisseried meats, pastas, cold salads, veggies, and lots of desserts, too! Lunch is available seasonally and is a la carte off a menu.
