The East Bank Club’s comfortable dining room—now open to the general public—is a hidden gem. Meals start with a generous breadbasket and a relish plate; segue into black lentil–tomato soup or dates stuffed with Gorgonzola and pancetta. Good entrées include wood-roasted white Alaskan salmon with roasted Broccolini florets and lemon-caper butter sauce. Skip dessert.
