Buffalo

Nestled in the beautifully restored Roycroft Inn in sleepy Aurora, the restaurant highlights regional and seasonal foods prepared in simple and well-crafted dishes. Favorites menu items include a pan-seared salmon with mango-jicama slaw and grilled rack of lamb with tomato and chili butter. Top it all off with chocolate truffle cake or the tart and sweet cherry lattice pie. One of the best parts of dining at the Roycroft is the ambiance. In the fall or spring, ask for a seat in the Larkin Room, which overlooks the serene courtyard garden. During the chilly winter, grab a cozy fireside table in The Library. And if you visit in the summer, dining doesn’t get much better than in the lovely outdoors Parisian style.
