Vernona Description:
Our AAA Four Diamond, Mobil Four-Star signature restaurant serves breakfast, lunch, dinner and a famous Sunday brunch.
Vernona continues to win awards annually with its Regional Organic Cuisine and was recently named "Best Overall" Restaurant in Florida by Florida International magazine. A private dining room is available as an exclusive setting for special events.
Vernona has done something that few other hotel restaurants have managed. Indeed, most cutting-edge independent restaurants would be humbled by its commitment to locally farmed, organic produce, meats and cheeses. The vibrant and seasonally changing menu emphasizes health and the therapeutic properties of organic foods. Sounds pious, no? Never fear. The dining room, with its graceful arched windows, floral murals and Italian-villa vibe, plays dramatic host to dishes like pan-roasted lamb loin with orange-scented eggplant purée, green lentils and red wine-kalamata olive sauce; or a wintery Barolo-braised beef short ribs with Yukon Gold mashed potatoes, local organic romano beans and bordelaise sauce. To accompany the menu's healthy focus, the wine list has a broad array of organic wines and a laudable collection of half bottles. For a luxury hotel restaurant, the 175 wine offerings also span a commendable range of price points, from a very sensible $38 to more than $1,000. It's luxurious, topnotch dining with attentive and sophisticated service---the hefty price tag made sweeter by a selection of house-made truffles and chocolate fripperies.
