The Scene
The interior is pleasant, with lots of brass and comfy booths, but the outdoor patio is the choice spot during the warmer months. The restaurant seems to swarm with convention goers and visitors to the nearby Tech Museum and Children's Discovery Museum. It offers that dignified, rarefied steaks-and-chops ambiance of a bygone era with mid-priced American staples and extra-solicitous service.
The Food
This is comfort food for weary travelers and locals who have discovered this hotel eatery. The Cobb salad has a huge following as well as other salads that amply serve as a main course. Meatloaf comes with a mound of mashed potatoes and a chicken potpie arrives steaming hot topped by a crisp crust. Liver and onions, steaks and pastas all make appearances. For dessert try the fruit cobbler of the day.
