   We really enjoyed our dinner. Only complaints would be that I reserved a table in the main dining room and we were seated in the bar area which was very busy and very loud. There were no open tables in the dining room at that time. Then why would you take a reservation for the dining room at that time. Also the chicken dish said on the menu that it came with a petite salad but it no longer does. So update the menu. But the good and service were very good. So overall a great meal!

   This is my second time at a Grand Brasserie restaurant after a disappointing first and I'm still disappointed. This hospitality group keeps thinking that you can fool people because of the aesthetics. While the restaurants are lovely, the food continues to be mediocre at best and the service even worse. I had been at the midtown location and it was terrible. I gave it a second chance at the Grand Central location and it wasn't that much better. The menu is basic and that would be ok even if overpriced but they missed completely on the basics of good service: We had 3 waiters because they kept on not returning and we had to call them, we bought fizzy water and that was quick but when asked for tap water, it took them forever to provide it, we had to ask for salt and pepper for the table, we had to ask them to change our flatware for the main course, the coffee was ice cold, and the drinks were below average. And we are paying full NYC prices!!! Will not be returning to any of their locations.

   What a gem in Grand Central! The stunning architecture of the station is blended with amazing food and the ambiance of a classic French bistro. Highly recommend.

   The ambience was lovely and the food very good, had steak frites. The service was mediocre - wrong bottle of at fist so we had the food delivered before the right bottle of wine. Had to ask for proper cutlery for the steak and nobody checked on us throughout the meal. Next time it will be only a drink at the beautiful bar.

   Excellent dining choice in Grand Central. For a quieter atmosphere book the Green Room in the back. Amazing liquor selection. Be prepared for a larger than average bill (even with the prixe fixe menu).

   Well to begin, the restaurant is located in Grand Central Terminal. Literally on top of the tracks. The rumbling from all the trains was ALOT! The place was lovely. Very Parisian. The food..fine. Just fine. The cost......very very expensive. We were 3, 2 apps, 3 entrees, 1 dessert...over $200! And 2 of the entrees were on the lower cost level. The bar in the inner room...well that needs to be seen...gorgeous. Will I go back? I dont know. Maybe for a solo lunch before catching a train.

   Always good I love it more each time I go The onion soup is so good omelettes excellent although I might suggest a tiny bit more lettice With the Norwegian eggs Benedict and a few potatoes seriously it’s very little to ask for don’t be cheap!!! It’s unbecoming instead have patrons really really happy

    Outstanding food and very attentive service. The space is in the entry of Grand Central Station so seating up front is not ideal as there is a lot of noise and foot traffic. The main dining area is well appointed and comfortable.
