Elegant and innovate dishes are the crux of Chef Clinton Jones’ revitalization of The Palace restaurant, located within the historical Cincinnatian, a Mobil Four-Star award-winning hotel. Jones comes to the restaurant with over thirty years experience, working in such diverse locations as Hawaii, Santa Fe and New York. All of these locations influence his menu, culminating in tastes that impress without being pretentious. Signature dishes include such favorites as Coffee-Rubbed Elk Carpaccio, Tea-Cured Duck Breast, Grilled Hanger Steak as well as Peanut Butter and Chocolate Mousse Cake. The ambiance is sophisticated without being overt; neutral colors and warm, leather upholstery create the perfect venue for The Palace’s collection of twelve Pissaro paintings. The Palace is the perfect place for a romantic dinner or all-important business lunch. (The Palace promotes a forty-five minute business lunch menu.)
