Tableside Theatre

Notorious for romantic scandal and famed for risqué stage performances, Lillie Langtry didn’t shy away from drama. Bringing dramatics back into the dining room, The LaLee offers a selection of signature dishes that are artfully prepared at the table.

Lighter options include the iconic dish beef tartare or Caesar salad—each served with a touch of tableside theatre.
