Bon Ton L’Roy’s is another breed of cat, featuring Southern-style barbecue, American staples/standards, and even a few Russian classics. If you want to taste their best, then hit up their pulled pork and brisket. If your date doesn’t care for smoked meats, you’re in luck, they offer vegetarian-friendly fare, sweet treats, and thirsty cats can enjoy the full bar.
