Description: Situated inside a building (circa 1937) that once housed a country market, Annie Gunn’s is one of the most popular places to eat in the county. The menu features soups, salads, steaks, burgers, and sandwiches for lunch and dinner. Lunch entrees include chicken-fried steak, braised pork shank, fettuccine with house-made chicken meatballs, and grilled meat loaf and gravy. The dinner menu expands to include entrees like grilled tenderloin, crispy duck confit, jumbo shrimp, braised veal cheeks, grilled scallops, and roasted chicken. Appetizers range from foie gras and grilled Muscovy duck on pumpernickel to Kobe beef carpaccio and soft pretzels with house-made sausage, cremini mushrooms, and horseradish mustard. The kids’ menu is just as extensive, with burgers, chicken tenders, sandwiches like Liam’s Smoosh (peanut butter and marshmallow cream on white bread), and buttered noodles with Parmesan cheese. The restaurant is regularly awarded the Award of Excellence by Wine Spectator magazine, thanks to its wine list that features more than 700 varieties. Closed Monday.
