8. Elaine's on Franklin

Textured medium blue walls and a mustard yellow vaulted ceiling with skylights accent this whimsical dining room. The seasonally inspired menu features dishes such as grilled Broken Arrow Ranch venison with Sunset Farm's corn pudding, sautéed spinach and blackberry sauce. Delightfully-conceived desserts – for example, orange-buttermilk panna cotta with chilled eastern peach-Moscato d'Asti sauce – add to this pleasurable dining experience. Award-winning wine list.   (© 10Best)

Amid dramatic, dim lighting and bold, contemporary, food-themed paintings, you'll enjoy earnest service, an intriguing wine list, and creative yet unpretentious dishes. Dessert is worth the calories here. Try the strawberry shortcake, chocolate-walnut bread pudding, or the warm chocolate cake, served with roasted banana ice cream and peanuts. (from Southern Living)

EXCELLENT I celebrated my 76th birthday with my companion and a friend. The food was excellent--trendy and imaginative in a nice way--and so was the wine. Service was efficient and unobtrusive. I had the cream of asparagus soup, the duck confit, and a very nice dessert; the other two diners ordered two appetizers and dessert. We were all very pleased with the taste, the quality, and the presentation of our dishes. The wine was excellent and reasonably priced. We have dined at Elaine's four or five times in the past year--especially for special occasions --and never been disappointed.
