    The food was mediocre, and definitely not worth the price. Utensils were also not completely cleaned, and there were long waits at times for service however our server was very nice. I would recommend to instead just bring your own food and eat it in you car while watching the view from the hills. It would be a much better experience. The view is pretty great though.

    We had a exceptional birthday dinner for my daughter’s 8th bday. The view, food, ambiance, service… all remarkable and unforgettable. Our server is very knowledgeable about the history of the restaurant. He even sang a Happy Birthday song twice (French and English). Definitely a place to be for intimate and private dinner. Highly recommended

    Once we were properly seated, The service was outstanding and the atmosphere nice. The business casual Dress code was not enforced as there were multiple people with hoodies, sweatshirts and very subpar attire, it cheapened the experience to the level of a Denny's. While the Halibut and Prime rib was very good for my companions, I have to say that the pistachio rack of lamb was the WORST meal I have ever had in my may years of dining out. It was cold from the kitchen, tasteless, and hard to swallow. I tried to eat one piece but could not stomach it. I was with an important customer or I would have been extremely verbal about my experience. They need to improve their perception and up their game.

    Went for an anniversary, second time there, second time ordering the tomahawk. This time was disappointed seeing how HALF the steak was nothing but fat cap & wasn’t to the desired temperature. I asked for a rare steak but instead got pieces that was well done & medium and out of all that I had $50 taken off. This experience did ruin my dinner with my wife as I did leave upset & hungry.

    The Grand View does not disappoint. The server was engaging and very knowledgeable, fun. He was attentive and helped us with our family style serving choices. The food was fabulous—tempura calamari was the best anyone had ever eaten, the tri-color salad was fresh and flavorful, the Agnolotti della Montagna was so delicious, and the tomahawk steak was cooked to perfection, sliced, and served as the centerpiece. The perfect destination for a celebratory event at sunset.
