Elevated New American tavern with standout seafood, steaks, and a deep whiskey list; creative Asian-accented flavors, polished service, and a moody speakeasy vibe, but portions run small and pricing is high.
The Franklin Room delivers exceptional food quality and outstanding service attentiveness with skilled whiskey guidance, earning solid A-grade performance. Tight seating and modest portions relative to pricing prevent higher standing, though steady execution over years and moody speakeasy charm make it competitive with the area's better neighborhood restaurants. Strong repeat loyalty and contemporary seafood execution position it as a worthwhile destination for whiskey and refined New American dining.
One caveat: Pricing is premium (mains often $30+; steak $69), and portions can feel small
