We are temporarily closed. The COVID-19 pandemic is a threat to our community, and this is the best way to protect our staff and guests and help stop the spread of this virus. By confronting this today, we hope to return to serving you and our community sooner rather than later.Our daily-changing menu, rooted in classic French technique, features the best from each harvest. We anticipate the cooler weather game of venison and quail, root vegetables and greens; the first springtime shad roe and the blue-green, live and kickin' soft shell crabs arriving a few weeks later, followed by summer's shell beans, tomatoes and okra. Regional, heritage ingredients and gracious serve have been celebrated here since our opening in 1982.

From the award winning 12,000 bottle wine cellar, which includes the finest offerings from Bordeaux, Burgundy, California and Virginia, the Sommelier plays matchmaker between you, your dinner and the wine.The late Craig Claiborne of The New York Times called it “the most magnificent inn I’ve ever seen, in this country or Europe, where I had the most fantastic meal of my life”. Patrick’s approach to cooking, while paying homage to the lawmakers of Classical French Cuisine, reflects a belief in “the cuisine of today”, healthy, eclectic, imaginative, unrestricted by ethnic boundaries and always growing.
