| - I've been here twice for dinner, but that was at least eight years ago. I'm happy to say that during my most recent visit last month, I was still wow-ed by the food!
We came with family for a weekend lunch and I was pleased with the lunch and brunch selections. Also, the full menu was available all day!
Their bread basket was delicious and we loved the flavored butters, especially the herb one.
Short Rib Benedict ($28): Poached eggs, short rib, crab, hollandaise, potato cake, and seasonal vegetables. Everything about this benedict was amazing! The potato cakes were creamy and delicious, the short rib was insanely tender, great crab, tasty hollandaise with the right consistency, and the soft poached eggs were absolute perfection. The roasted vegetables were pretty great, too.
East Coast Lobster Tail BLT ($30): Lobster, applewood smoked bacon, yellow tomato, lemon aioli, avocado, and arugula on multigrain toast. An awesome sandwich with a generous serving of lobster tail. I loved the additional twist of yellow tomato and arugula, plus, avocado is great everywhere. The BLT was accompanied by a delicious simply-dressed salad and lattice potato chips.
Seafood Platter ($56): Prawns with Top of the World cocktail sauce, ahi poke cones, yellowtail crudo, lobster cocktail, and crab salad. This platter is insane and so awesome!! It is loaded with seafood goodies. As is no surprise, EVERYTHING was delicious. It doesn't matter what else you order, but you need this platter in your life.
Bananas Foster in a Florentine Box ($10): Artisanal vanilla ice cream, foster sauce with Myers' rum and fresh banana, served in a caramel almond box. Um, yes. I love Bananas Foster and this is a great version of it. The box makes it even better. The box is delicious.
Great food, great service, and amazing views of the whole valley (if you didn't already know, the restaurant rotates 360 degrees in 80 minutes). What else do you need?
