    Amazing staff & fabulous food! Generous portions & excellent hospitality! Lemaire is a wonderful place for dinner! The short rib appetizer & Caesar salad was beyond our expectation. The shrimp cocktail is always perfect! I don’t think Lemaire does anything below the absolute best. The barnyard burger and the beef tenderloin are so delicious! I could go on and on! Lemaire is the place to go if you want the best of the best!

    We always eat here when we stay at the Hotel. We had local friends join us for this dinner. The staff is well trained and attentive but not overly so. All four of us had the salmon entree which was very good and mine cooked to medium was perfectly prepared. The desserts were just as good. We will keep coming. I have never been disappointed with the food, drink and service here.

    We had the most perfect meal with the fried oysters as our appetizer, I had the rockfish and my husband had scallops for entrees. Our waitress Candie was the best! She was attentive but not overbearing. This is our second time staying at the Jefferson and dining at Lemaire and an excellent experience both times. We’d definitely be back.
