Why they're an Icon

Executive chef: Stephen Jones

From the OpenTable editors: The larder & the delta has been a comfort for nearly a decade, and it moved into a cozy home with a new menu in 2024. James Beard semifinalist Stephen Jones folds local and seasonal produce into Southern cooking with unexpected dishes like chicken-fried mushrooms and country ham–style swordfish. Start with the multi-course tasting menu, that has one seating on weekdays and two on weekends, and then look on the restaurant's Instagram for specials like brunch and chef collaboration dinners.

Last Sunday we were fortunate to be able to have great Sunday brunch with Chef Stephen Jones at The larder and the Delta. His tasting experiences have always been first rate and he has expanded his offerings to family get-togethers on Wednesdays and brunches. Regardless of the format, the service is always attentive and professional and the food is innovative and delicious! Definitely recommend reservations! Check out the menu and pics!

I booked reservations after having this restaurant on my try list for some time. Upon arriving the front reminded me of an old house. After parking finding the front entrance is somewhat confusing as there isn’t a name on the front door, signage or a way to designate the front doors. After entering I was greeted by a bartender with a welcome cocktail. While the cocktail tasted good there wasn’t Name or description provided for the drink and it seemed incomplete without a garnish. The bartenders attire, a Hawaiian blouse, reminded me of a dive bar and not a fine dining restaurant. Upon seating in the dining room, which was intimate with an open kitchen concept, the ambiance was nice. The server never introduced themselves, provide beverage recommendations or upsell on any of the accompaniments that were on the booking form of open table. There wasn’t a menu on the table as well. The first two courses were described as snacks and they both tasted good, however the asparagus course was difficult to eat with a tablespoon. The radish and butter dish presentation could have been presented in a way to exemplify fine dining, it lacked salt and acid to cut through the fatty elements of the butter which coated your palette. The pork cheek and the rice were the highlights of the evening, both exemplifying bold flavors. For a five courses dinner with two beverages I would anticipate to pay a minimum of $250 per person without beverages. Overall the food was good, the service and consistency of a fine dining experience are a work in progress.

James Beard nominated Chef Jones presented a lamb cookout last Sunday and it was incredible!! The day was beautiful and as always the creativity was amazing. Lamb was represented in virtually every course from lamb fat biscuits through skin, neck and whole roasted pieces. Even if you haven't had some of these things...treat yourself! It was soo good! Service as always was spot on and professional. This experience is another example of how Chef Jones brings community together with food that is not ordinary but spectacular!

If you’re in the neighborhood, you can’t go wrong with a family-style meal at The larder + the delta! Today’s Niman Ranch Lamb supper was an absolutely exceptional team effort! Every homemade dish was amazing and the lamb was hands-down the best we’ve had! Thank you, Chef Stephen Jones and crew!
