George Martin

George Martin, which bills itself "a genuine American bistro" offers proof that there is some truth in advertising. The handsome place manages to be casual and yet special-occasion-appropriate, with a menu that covers both the classics as well as New American innovations.

Dinner might kick off with a lobster and sesame vegetable egg roll or a traditional Caesar salad. There is always a ravioli of the day, as well as several pastas, among them rigatoni with toasted broccoli, walnuts and Gorgonzola. Dinner specialties include wok seared salmon with hoisin glaze, grilled Saint Peter's fish, or a garlic-rubbed Black Angus shell steak.

Lunch could be anything from a sirloin burger on toasted brioche to a hearty veal Parmigiana. There's also a bargain-price "executive" lunch, at $7.95, which includes an option such as a BLT or cappellini "caprice" with a choice of soup or salad.

Dessert can be many things, but to those who have been coming to George Martin over the years, it usually comes down to the signature brownie sundae. Why deny oneself?
