Albie's Beef Inn Description:
Okay, so it's part of a Travelodge, but Albie's has a steady following who like this old-school spot---located in the same space as Adam's Steak & Eggs (the names change according to the hour). In business since 1962, Albie's was retro before the term existed. Dark booths with diamond tufting, wood paneling circa 1960 and Sinatra on the soundtrack strike a chord. The most expensive steak on the menu comes in at $24 with all the fixings, like a single sugar-sweet carrot and twice-stuffed baked potato. The halibut is fresh, lightly breaded and cooked in garlic butter and the boneless non-traditional chicken Parmesan skips the marinara, rather it's padded in breadcrumbs and cheese, then grilled in good old butter. Raspberry cheesecake brûlée or homemade bread pudding champion the dessert menu. Albie's is packed on Fridays with an energetic bar crowd. Musicians often drop in sporting saxophones and trombones to jam with the in-house piano man.
