Gage & Tollner

This historic restaurant, which first opened its doors in 1892, is decorated with antique mirrors, cherry wood, and brass chandeliers, creating an atmosphere that exudes nostalgia. The warm, amber glow and lively crowd in the room immediately captivate, but it’s not just the history and ambiance that define this place—it’s also the culinary excellence. Under the direction of Executive Chef Adam Shepard, the team delivers a dining experience that exceeds expectations. From seafood towers to juicy fillets, crab cakes, and a spectacular fried chicken platter with cornmeal fritters, each dish honors the legacy of the legendary Edna Lewis, who led the kitchen in the late 1980s and whose Southern cuisine has inspired countless followers. Dessert is not to be missed, and options such as coconut cake or baked Alaska will provide the perfect sweet ending to the evening.
