What’s the best table at Lemaire?

  1. There are plenty of great tables at Lemaire, so the best table at the restaurant just depends on your preferences. In the main dining area (the Valentine Room), we’d suggest a corner table by the window, where you have a good view of the entire restaurant at the Forbes Travel Guide Five-Star Jefferson Hotel. If you’re looking for something more secluded, reserve the private Gibson Room. This room can be accessed from either the lounge or the Valentine Room. The original pocket doors, often found in historic Richmond homes, were preserved and provide privacy for groups. The Gibson Room can accommodate up to 18 at one table or 24 at separate round tables — so you can create the type of dinner party you want.

  2. Opinions will vary on the best table in Lemaire but the Valentine Room offers the most traditional Lemaire dining experience and the two tops at the windows overlooking historic Franklin Street are certainly romantic. The Gibson Room and the Astor Room also offers a charming view overlooking Franklin Street and are smaller in size for a more intimate feeling. The Library Room is such a magnificent room that all the tables are created equal.

    All of the dining rooms in Lemaire have been designed for the ultimate comfort of the guests. The kitchen is removed from the dining room entryways and server traffic is limited in the paths near to guest tables for very unobtrusive service by the staff.
