This elegant European-style restaurant is accented with cherry wood furnishings, cream-colored walls, a marble fireplace and white linen tables topped with fine crystal and floral-print china. Perfecting the atmosphere of Southern charm, the Dining Room offers menus that change daily and feature flavorful, regional American dishes. Chef Tarver King and his staff showcase ingredients from the region, often mentioning local farmers by name. Standouts include hay-smoked duckling with crispy pomme darphin, or Maine lobster with morels and English pea-acquerello risotto. With wine pairings by sommelier Stephane Peltier and desserts like chocolate napoleon with fleur de sel caramel, the end of a meal is as memorable as the beginning.
