Albion River Inn

We hadn't been to Albion River Inn in nearly a year. It's located at 3790 N. Highway 1 in Albion.

They used to have a $25 2-course chef's dinner served with a glass of white or red wine. Earlier this month, they changed it to a $32.50 3-course dinner. Wine is no longer included so it's not as good a deal.


First course--beet, walnut & Feta cheese salad. This was flavorful and the beets were delicious.

 
Main course--Grilled Beef Short Ribs. Tender beef, lightly grilled and braised in the oven, glazed with a chipotle-orange barbecue sauce, served with garlic mashed Yukon Gold potatoes, grilled corn on the cob & sautéed green beans. The sauce was flavorful and the ribs were tender but they were greasy. The frozen corn and the overcooked beans did not add to the dish.
 
 
There was a choice of Chocolate Mousse or House-Made Sorbet for dessert.

 
Pan-Roasted Alaskan Halibut served Golden with a local Shiitake & Trumpet Royale Mushroom & Madeira Wine Cream Sauce with Toasted Orzo Pasta-Wild Rice Blend & Prosciutto Ham & Smoked Salmon Stuffed Mushrooms--$29.50.  The halibut was well cooked and the sauce was delicious without being overpowering. The mushrooms were unique and tasty.
