DINNER AND A SHOW
Saturday, May 17
Three-Course Dinner and a Magic Show
featuring
Steve Friedberg
Dinner and a show—like you’ve never experienced before.
Join us at Financier on Saturday, May 17, for a magical evening featuring a 3-course dinner and an unforgettable performance by acclaimed sleight-of-hand magician Steve Friedberg.
Steve has headlined the Magic Castle in Hollywood and the Magic Circle in London—but one of his proudest titles? Doctor of Magic, awarded by Fechter’s Finger Flicking Frolic convention—a name that’s as fun to say as it is impressive, and reserved for only 250 of the world’s best close-up magicians. Steve blends world-class skill, wit, and charm into a performance that will leave you saying “how did he do that?” long after dessert is served.
Choose from a curated menu of elevated classics—start with Caesar salad or tortilla soup, enjoy entrées like steak frites, oven-roasted chicken, or pan-seared cilantro-lime shrimp, and finish with tres leches or key lime pie.
Limited seating—reservations highly recommended. Book a room for the night, and get 10% off dinner! This is one night you won’t want to miss.

OUR STORY
Welcome to the Robert Morris Inn, America's oldest full-service inn; with roots tracing back to its original construction as River View House in 1710, our unique structure has served as a welcoming Inn for weary travelers since 1800. Within these historic walls, where red brick fireplaces once set the stage for passionate discussions on independence from Britain and negotiations over sugar, tobacco, and fine French wine, history truly comes to life. The inn’s locally-sourced wood paneling and sturdy oak timbers remain as they were over three centuries ago, offering guests an authentic step back in time.
In the centuries since, the inn has become a gathering place for visionaries, including the celebrated author James Michener, who found inspiration here for his novel Chesapeake. Today, the Robert Morris Inn stands as one of the Eastern Shore’s most distinctive historic inns and restaurants, offering guests an inviting and timeless ambiance.
Our dedicated team welcomes you warmly, with friendly and professional service that makes every stay special. Savor our thoughtfully curated menu of local cuisine at Financier Restaurant, crafted with the freshest ingredients and a commitment to excellence. Join us for an unforgettable experience that celebrates the rich heritage and stories of our region.
