The Scene
Well-heeled suburban couples and extended families frequent this stately, pillared restaurant and banquet facility. A favorite for intimate dining, the namesake cave room boasts faux stalactites, dim lighting and a low ceiling, while the large formal dining room blends '80s Miami with French provincial style: Pink scalloped booths hug the perimeter, with palm trees acting as dividers. A marble fireplace commands the center of the room, and dishes are rolled out on carts and presented with silver domes.
The Food
The old-school French menu boasts traditional, decadent fare like garlicky, buttery escargots in the shell and cold smoked salmon served with dainty portions of traditional accompaniments. Perfectly done lamb is sliced tableside and bathed in jus, poured from roasting pan to plate. Sea bass is airy and delicious, plated with creamy Dijon and ground crab sauce. For dessert, triple-chocolate mousse cake is worth the calories.
