Main Dining Room

The former Formal Dining Room has been revamped under the Four Seasons management and has a new menu. However, the relaxing setting remains, with a roaring fire, bountiful sprays of orchids, sienna-colored walls, and a waitstaff serving in hushed voices. The menu highlights American favorites. The appetizers are so tempting, you could make a meal from the variety of choices: seared diver scallops with sweet spring pea blini, foie gras and black truffle parfait, and lava rock-seared Lanai venison. The entrees vary according to the season; when I dined here, the menu included Maui lavender honey-roasted duck breast, mustard-and-herb-roasted rack of lamb, and a buttered poached lobster from the Big Island. The service is impeccable, the atmosphere relaxing. But don't forget your platinum credit card -- you'll need it.
