The Bluffton Room Menu
The dinner menu changes with the seasons, so ask the restaurant about the current list. Reviewers point to the chargrilled oysters, the soups, carpaccio, grilled calamari and Caesar salad to start, then the New York strip, filet mignon, prime rib and elk for the main course. Key lime pie and coconut pie are the desserts people mention. There are separate bar and wine menus. The menu button above opens the current dinner menu.
