Description

With a relaxing ambiance, fancy cocktails and an impressive wine list, State & Allen straddles the casual and upscale line. The big hit on the menu is the Silver Bowl - "The Original" salad, with romaine lettuce, chunks of bacon, red grape halves, mandarin oranges, diced red bell peppers, marinated chicken and two dressings (a balsamic vinaigrette and a Caesar, drizzled separately to pack a one-two punch). The to-go version of salad, served in a corn-derivative biodegradable container, is one of the reasons that State & Allen is certified as an earth-friendly eatery by the Green Restaurant Association. For those who can't bear to part with their pooches during a brunch outing, you're in luck. The restaurant's patio welcomes four-legged friends.

    You know what our problem is We can't make a decision when it comes to ordering food. We'd like some of this, some of that and a bite of what you're having, thanks. We want that salad, but could we please have a couple of dressings Indecision is the bane of our servers' existence. And yet, at State & Allen Lounge, they feel us. Like, they really feel us. The Silver Bowl, or "The Original" as it's noted on the menu, is a hearty salad that looks rather modest at first glance. But its... More »

    Great place to bring your dog and sit in a covered patio. The food is very good, good drink specials and more of a restaurant inside then a bar.

    Go for the silver bowl salad, chicken sandwich, or the pizzas (1/2 priced on Mondays). avg price is prob $12-16. Brunch is good too, the purple potato hash is my favorite thing on Sunday dishes.
