As ALWAYS an enjoyable dining experience... Love this place!!!
Fine pre-theater dining. Mussel bisque encroute is the hands-down absolute best soup anywhere! Decadent! Excellent sour dough bread to begin added to our enjoyment. Salmon risotto and tasty scampi - with shells removed no less - made nice entrees. But the bisque is the Thing!

Dobson's is a power central at lunchtime - downtown lawyers, politicos and other Eminent Type Personages have done business here since the early '80s while breaking through the pastry crust on the famously delicious Mussel Bisque. If you think you have no place here, polish your shoes, show up and be proven wrong: Dobson's is renowned for being an exceptionally comfortable place to hang out....
The Extras: Owner Paul Dobson is known to work the room, so be sure to say hello.
Where to Sit: Seating in the bar at lunch is like being in the pit on Wall Street. Tables upstairs are a bit more low key.
