I love Granite City and eat here regularly. The staff are great, the food is awesome, and it has a great menu. It is, however, very loud which makes conversation difficult. Lowering the music level would make for a more enjoyable experience.

The FireLake Grill House offers a varied menu and I appreciate that the ingredients locally sourced. We enjoyed the short ribs, walleye and duck which were all fantastic! The only disappointment was that the popovers were overdone. The specialty cocktails and desserts were excellent! We enjoyed a lovely dinner in an elegant yet relaxed venue.

This is a very underrated breakfast experience in the Twin Cities. You can park for free with a validation and have a very quiet, mellow brunch with a breakfast cocktail and not get the side-eye on a weekday morning. I work overnights and 72 hour shifts. It’s really a treat to go here to decompress in a benign space after an extended shift. The food is superlative, French inspired; indulgent, but not gutbusting. The waitstaff are outstanding and top-notch. Kind of hate to share this review because it’s my secret!
