Description:

  • Vanessie is as much a piano bar as it is a restaurant. The talented musicians Doug Montgomery and Charles Tichenor hold forth at the keyboard, caressing the ivories with a repertoire that ranges from Bach to Barry Manilow. A brief menu, served at large, round, wooden tables beneath hanging plants in the main dining room or on a covered patio, varies little: rotisserie chicken, fresh fish, New York sirloin, filet mignon, Australian rock lobster, grilled shrimp, and rack of lamb. Portions are large; however, most are served a la carte, which bumps this restaurant up into the expensive category. For sides, you can order fresh vegetables, sautéed mushrooms, a baked potato, or an onion loaf (my mom raves about this). The "specialty dinners" come with starch and vegetable sides; I especially like the rotisserie chicken. For dessert, the slice of cheesecake served is large enough for three diners. There's a short wine list.

    Vanessie

  • A great bar/ restaurant with good live music (piano) with show tunes, decent food. A trip down memory lane, or appealing to an older crowd.
