10Best Says

Gorgeous views, a creekside location, and a spare, art-adorned interior set the scene for meals at this popular restaurant. Of course, they're only the frosting on the restaurant's culinary cake. The menu is a delight of flavor and texture, characterized by charbroiled, chile-rubbed steak, New Zealand rack of lamb, lobster risotto, horseradish-crusted salmon, and sweet potato-pecan ravioli. You'll also want to sample their famous peach cobbler, chock full of various fruits and served with ice cream. On weekend evenings, musicians play for guests.
