The bar and lounge, actually two different rooms, welcome you for an apéritif or a last drink. At the bar, sit next to shelves filled with herbs Emé uses in the kitchen; or linger in the intimate dark blue lounge on a sofa by the fireplace. The main dining room commands elegance with luxurious drapes and high-back leather booths and classic crystal chandeliers, a comfortable setting to experience the solid preparations of chef Emé. He hails from France, his French repertoire played out in a short and well-balanced menu. You'll find classic dishes like foie gras, roasted scallops and sweetbreads along with more innovative compositions like seared escargots and crayfish with rabbit meatballs. Be sure to visit in November and December when the white truffle menu makes its annual appearance. Emé makes a strong and modern statement in the presentations of his dishes, with colors, shapes and arrangements.
