Since opening Tallgrass in 1981, Chef Robert Burcenski and Maitre d' Thomas Alves have maintained the highest standards for cuisine, wine and service. Located in Lockport's historic district, considered the best preserved 19th century canal town in the Midwest. Tallgrass is housed in a lovingly restored 110-year-old red stone and brick Victorian building. Rich fruitwood wainscot, warm original gas chandeliers, cut crystal and polished silver create a soft, glittering light and warms the diners' anticipation of the gustatory treats to come.

Highly acclaimed Chef Robert Burcenski prepares elegantly garnished contemporary cuisine reflecting a world of influences. He leaves no detail to chance, even making his own service plates and bowls. A changing trio of double-flavored soups, offers six harmonious flavors in one bowl. Opulent salads follow stellar entrees such as lobster comme chez soi, herbed rack of lamb tapenade or various seasonal birds and mushrooms.
