About McNinch House

Chandeliers, purple walls, gilt mirrors and linen-draped tables fill a series of small parlours, and drinks can be taken on the front porch before or instead of dinner. The kitchen serves set and tasting menus of Continental cooking, with a five-course chef's tasting the usual choice, and dishes such as sweet corn bisque, scallops, filet and house rolls that guests wish came in larger numbers. A sommelier builds the wine pairings, which reviewers repeatedly describe as spot on. Service is formal but warm, and servers are thanked by name. Recent reviewers were almost all marking anniversaries and birthdays, several calling it super expensive but worth it; one noted the old house ran warm during a heatwave. Google rates it 4.6 from 284 reviews. Dinner is served Tuesday to Saturday from 5:30pm, and reservations are required. Dress smartly to match the setting.
