C Jacoby's Restaurant & Mercantile

Southern/Down-Home, Steak House • Lower East • $25-$40 •  First Plates 

This latest Eastside foodery has freshened up an old concept – the ranch restaurant. Cocktails are served at the glam ranch bar. The chicken-fried steak is tender and well-flavored, the breading is light and crisp, and most importantly, the cream gravy is made from real pan drippings and not from a mix.
