"We decided to go off season because it is usually packed during the summer months. We were seated in one of four? dining rooms alone. One of the dining rooms was very crowded but my wifie pointed out that she thought that that dining room was for the locals since everyone seemed to know each other. So much for snobbishness.
We enjoyed everything starting with the cocktails which were well prepared and very cold. The appetizer which the waiter recommended was excellent. It was local bay scallops simply prepared and not overcooked as they usually are. The same was true of the roasted cod and the Scottish salmon. The portions were generous. As for the service, the waiter was attentive but not pretentious."

"I read the reviews and there were many negative and almost cancelled my reservation, I am glad I did not. I don't know what all the reviews were talking about the staff being rude. They were far from rude. It was exceptional service, and the food top notch. A little pricey but well worth it from start to finish!!"

"It would be easy to be intimidated by The American Hotel: the maitre d' and at least one of the waiters are not the warm and fuzzy type, the wine list is very long, and menu items are expensive. Get over that and you can have a wonderful, romantic lunch in the winter. (Summer is an entirely different story. I don't go then.) Request the bar room, have a shrimp cocktail, a burger, wonderful tomato soup (if it's a special), excellent salads, fresh fish. There are reasonably priced wines like a $29 muscadet. Sierra Nevada's on tap."
