    There really wasn’t anything on the menu that we really wanted to eat When we asked to substitute an included side for something we liked better, we received the lecture on all the work the chef put into designing the meal combinations. We were overall disappointed in a modern looking dining room in such a historic building.

    Dinner last night was amazing in the beautifully renovated Dearborn Inn! Had cocktails in the bar (Vagabond) before dinner. Will definitely go back there … nice quiet little spot to have a drink and appetizer. Clara’s was great! Our server, Natalie, was a delight and very informative. We never felt rushed even though we asked numerous questions … this was our first time back since the reopening. We had the pork belly shareable (yum!), the short ribs and red snapper. Perfect size portions and so delicious. Can’t wait to try their breakfast. We will be back!

    We went to breakfast at Clara’s Place and the food was really delicious! My husband said his French toast may have been the best he’s ever had and my omelet was also really good. The service was great and we really enjoyed the overall experience and hope to go back for dinner someday soon!

    Had a wonderful meal, first time back since the renovations. Design is much improved over the stuffy Edison’s. The menu changes were good too, tired a number of starters/sharables and all of them were good, the pork belly was especially nice. The short ribs were almost melt in the mouth and the strip steak was tender and flavorful. Our server was gracious and accommodating and made the meal better from start to finish.

    Thank you so much for joining us and for your wonderful feedback, Michael!

It’s fantastic to know the updated menu hit the mark for you, especially the pork belly, short ribs, and strip steak! We'll be sure to pass along your kind words to your server as well. We can’t wait to welcome you back for another delicious experience soon! Thank you, Troy Shoemaker, Senior Marketing Manager
