The Left Bank
For the best of French-inspired fine dining, look no further than the Left Bank, the signature restaurant of the luxury boutique hotel The Weston. The cozy wooden interiors give off major English countryside pub vibes, but the menu, which changes seasonally, is all French bistro; you might start with the exquisite onion soup gratineé, followed by the fantastically tender beef cheeks braised in red wine and served in creamy polenta. While seafood, chicken, and vegetables all make appearances on the menu and don’t ever miss (the Brussels sprout chips are a particular highlight), beef is really where the kitchen shines, with other stand-outs being the steak au poivre and a simple but pitch-perfect burger. And of course, don’t skip dessert—if it’s on the menu, go for the espresso crème brûlée.
