Diners looking for an upscale restaurant with a little more to offer than the traditional American prime-rib establishment should head downtown to the Tarragon at the Atherton Hotel. Tarragon has earned praise for its elegant atmosphere and eclectic menu of creative cuisine alongside classic offerings. Entrees like the roasted breast of duck served in a mandarin orange sauce, and seafood dishes such as the Island Tropics Tuna Steak, grilled mako shark and the popular Savory Seafood Trio are welcome sights for those who have tired of steak. But have no fear, ye unflagging devotees of the fillet: Tarragon also offers its "Meat Lovers Selections," featuring perfectly done favorites like the grilled New York strip steak, T-bone, and fillet, as well as a grilled New Zealand rack of lamb. The Swan Song and other sculpted chocolate desserts add the elegant finishing touch.
