Jekyll’s Baked Oysters with Leeks and Pancetta – Baked Gulf Coast Oysters, served on the half-shell and topped with an exquisite Leek and Pancetta, a Cream Sauce that’s so good you almost want to eat the shell.
Chef Jekyll’s Shrimp and Grits — Rich Stone-Ground Grits topped with Sautéed Gulf Shrimp, Andouille, and Mousseline Sauce
Herb-Crusted Beef Tenderloin Stuffed with Wild Mushrooms – The only thing that tops this stunning presentation is the incredible melt-in-your-mouth experience
Southern Fried Chicken Dinner – Double-Breaded, deep-fried Chicken, Mashed Potatoes with a hint of Garlic, Gravy, and Green Beans
Al Burro e Panna (Alfredo Italiana) – Traditional Italian sauce similar to, but much lighter than, “Americanized” Alfredo. Served with your choice of Penne, Fettuccine, or Spaghetti.
