Eden
Set in the historic Hale Bathhouse, now a boutique hotel, this atrium restaurant is both casual and refined, with exposed brick, a marble bar, and a living wall of plants flourishing beneath large skylights. During the day, the upscale menu features salads and other light fare; there's a curated selection of entrées in the evening.
McClard's Bar-B-Q
Established in 1928 and owned by four generations of the same family until 2020, the legacy lives on at this award-winning barbecue joint. McClard's is still the place to use up a wad of napkins while eating a plate of ribs dripping in the family's famous barbecue sauce. The restaurant is on the west side of town, in a squat, white-washed, stucco building with neon signs outside and interior walls plastered with accolades.

Steinhaus Keller
Located in the “grotto” of Spencer’s Corner, this authentic German restaurant has an old-world vibe with exposed rock and barreled ceilings. The menu features wursts, schnitzels, and other chef-made Bavarian and European delights, like roulade (rolled beef) and schweinshaxe (braised pork knuckle). Wash it all down with a stein of beer.
