About Valley Inn Restaurant and Martini Bar

Valley Inn Restaurant and Martini Bar is a nostalgic eatery with a limited menu that excels in its red meat offerings. The throwback steakhouse vibe stays close to its roots, providing a really nice atmosphere. The main room has a retro feel, and the service is excellent—friendly, efficient, and attentive. While the menu may not cater to all tastes, the dishes are well-prepared, with standouts like roast duck, prime rib, filet mignon, and the phenomenal Wagyu burger. The fried chicken and chicken Romano are also praised for their flavor and generous portions. The martini selection is a highlight, especially the lemon-blueberry martini, and desserts are a sweet treat. The ambiance is cozy and welcoming, making it a great spot for special occasions, especially with live piano music adding to the nostalgic feel. Reservations are recommended as the restaurant fills up quickly after 6:30 on busy nights. The restaurant has been a neighborhood staple since 1947, known for its good food, friendly service, and a great bartender. Parking can be a bit challenging, but the cozy atmosphere and tasty food make it worth the visit. If nearby, it’s a must-visit for anyone seeking a nostalgic dining experience.
