Enjoy the panoramic view of large oaks and a rolling stream from the many window-side tables, or the large, starlight deck. Or, savor the intimate atmosphere from a comfortable sofa, and in the winter, the warmth of a crackling fireplace.

Ryan's Chef creates a tantalizing selection of appetizers such as jumbo lump crabmeat, steamed mussels in garlic butter and white wine, and oysters Rockefeller. Entrees range from thick, juicy steaks and prime rib to the finest grilled fresh fish and live Maine lobster. Choose from the menu or a superb selection of specials offered nightly. Add a cappuccino and a freshly made dessert to seal the dining experience.

The restaurant has been locally owned and under the same management since 1981. Ryan's has been awarded the Wine Spectator's "Award of Excellence" and is often featured in national publications. Recently awarded the DiRoNa Award for Distinctive Fine Dining.

Please refer to our website for our dress code. It is enforced nightly.

    Everything is always perfect! The staff is always so friendly and accommodating even when I forget something until my meal comes! Thank you for always giving us a place to go and sit and forget we have four children at home for a couple hours!

    Wonderful martinis, wonderful fillet mignon and baked potato. It’s fun to go early and lounge on a couch in the bar. Our reservations were at 6:00 and glad we went early because it got very busy and noisy as we were leaving.

    We went to celebrate my dad’s birthday and what an experience! We went a few days after Christmas and the restaurant was still decorated. We all ordered steaks and they were cooked to perfection. Perry, our waiter, was on point and attentive the whole night, recommended a great wine to pair with dinner and the peanut butter pie to end the meal. Overall an amazing dinner experience, we’ll definitely be back!

    Service was fantastic. Food was very good, though kitchen was relatively slow. Again, service was attentive and appropriate.

    Ryan’s is always amazing, but last night was particularly good, and a great way to celebrate my parents’ retirement!
