| - I have been to Hyde park likely more than 20 times. It must be the only restaurant that is consistent in excellence. Out of all the times I have been there, there was only one time that my food was not excellent. Still very good.
The pretzel bread is awesome. I had to stop eating it because I would eat so much, it would ruin my appetite. Appetizer favorite is the lump crab, accompanied with with beer, or sometimes a cocktail. Main course I usually stick with steak, filet for that matter, which is one of the best in town. Always cooked perfect. I've had some of the bone-in selections and they where excellent as well.
Last time I had the cheeseburger with blue cheese and it was very yummy also.
The side dishes are very large, and filling so usually my wife and I will share one. All of the potato dishes are great, and the asparagus is fantastic.
At this point I'm really full and then I remember; crème brûlée. Hyde park simply put has the best I have had, and I have had a lot.
The place is expensive. A three course meal with a drink or two could run about $100 per person, give or take. Cheeseburger night was an exception!
The staff is excellent. Very professional, and classy, but at the same time not snobby. Try to avoid going on holidays (valentine's, mothers, Father's Day etc). As the service suffers a bit due to the mass amounts of customers. All other times you think you are the king.
Overall, Hyde park is excellent. It is on my top five of favorite restaurants.
