Best Fine Dining Restaurants in Grantville

My wife and I celebrated our 41st Wedding Anniversary in style last night. We were also celebrating my 70th birthday. The Circular has been our 'go to' spot for these auspicious occasions for many years. In early January, the place is empty. We always get great seats. Though the meal costs are somewhat high, the food is always good. This go-round, we had a FREE ENTREE certificate (Birthday) and a $125 gift card. Both made the financial 'hit' more bearable. We'll be back again later on this year.

Service by Brett was impeccable and first class. Noise level was delightfully quiet but we had an 8:00 reservation, and it was pretty empty. Steak had to go back once but second time was a charm… perfect and tender. Mushrooms to die for!

Harvest is one of my favorite restaurants and I am nervous about the proposed changes. The meals were excellent. I started with the Salmon Gravlax, which was prepared in a buttermilk-dill vinaigrette; the pumpernickel crisps were a delightful touch. I then had the prime rib which was one of the best I have ever eaten. Whatever the chef marinated it in was phenomenal. The smoked horseradish whipped potatoes and roasted brussels sprouts nicely balanced it. My brother enjoyed his smoked trout salad and cocoa barbecue ribs. Taylor was our server and she was another highlight as she knew the menu, was professional, courteous, and friendly. She had us laughing and enjoying ourselves. I am hoping that the proposed changes do not diminish Harvest's fine dining experience.
