The partner's word
The Lobbyist is a small, hospitality-driven restaurant whose mission is creating joyful moments through a passion for craft. Its values reflect a humble history of sharing food, art and friendship; the kitchen explores America’s cultural tapestry by blending global influences with freshest ingredients from nearby farms. Leadership includes Jessica Lambert (Chef de Cuisine); restaurant holds MICHELIN Selected distinction, multiple local and national mentions, nominations, and offers private-dining and special-events programming supported by downloadable Food & Beverage PDF and complimentary valet.
The dining room is a stylish time capsule marrying vintage hotel charm with modern touches. Plush furnishings, golden details and classic accents create an elegant, timeless vibe with bar and patio seating in the historic Hotel Chisca (opened 1913). The revival honors Elvis’s early performances and radio history while presenting a polished, welcoming environment for dining and cocktails.
The menu is fusion-driven New American that harmonizes global influences with locally sourced ingredients and evolves seasonally. Plates showcase locally raised meats and vibrant produce; the cocktail program reimagines classics with contemporary techniques and high-quality ingredients.
