More about Paul Martin's American Grill :

Fans of Fleming's Prime Steakhouse & Wine Bar can now add a new resto to their rotation. At Paul Fleming's newest concept, Paul Martin's American Grill, you can expect the same quality you'd expect at Fleming's but with a more laid-back attitude and a menu that's fresh and local -- the sort of restaurant that Fleming and partner Brian Bennett always wanted in their own neighborhood.

What else to expect? Deep wood and burnished metal for starters. The bright and airy restaurant (check out the al fresco option) has bar seating, as well as huge dining booths. Try the sig cocktails which are made with the restaurant's own infused vodkas, and for a special occasion, snag a res in the wine room where you'll get Fleming's fave wines as a backdrop to your meal. The menu's got local and organic ingreds (you can see where they were sourced) and with light fare like cedar plank salmon or lamb meatballs, alongside heartier choices (braised shortribs and brick chicken), everyone will find something to love. Coming soon? Sunday dinners that you won't want to miss with old fashioned fried chicken and then some. -Christopher Luu
