About Us

The Lobby Bar is a chic, modern, bistro-inspired eatery that celebrates the comforting flavors of Europe blended with American homestyle cooking. Designed to evoke the warmth of gathering around a family table, the restaurant draws inspiration from the elegance of French bistros, the heartiness of Italian trattorias, the conviviality of German beer halls, and the soulfulness of American Southern kitchens.

A spacious restaurant with a high ceiling, large windows, and elegant decor. There are round marble tables set with napkins and glasses, and pink upholstered chairs. Large potted plants decorate the area, and a few people are seated or walking around. A prominent chandelier hangs over the center table, and sunlight streams in through the windows.
