    The Valentine Dinner was remarkable. It was a four course meal and we had the tomato bisque soup with balsamic drizzle, which sounds wearied but it added a complementing flavor; bacon wrap shrimp, which has a great smoky flavor and the shrimp was cooked perfectly; the Halibut dinner which had a sauce that complemented the halibut and potatoes and the halibut was cooked to perfection and melted in your mouth; and for desert we has a light a fluffy tiramisu, which was also delicious. In addition the service was excellent and attentive.

    Fantastic experience at Grandview for my husband's birthday celebration. Very attentive service and the food was outstanding. It was a chilly windy evening so we sat inside but we were still able to enjoy the view. We started off with the calamari- cooked perfectly, we then each had a salad- the Caesar Salad and the GV Tres Colori- both were beautiful and tasty. My husband ordered the Lobster Carbonaro and I had the wild Salmone Grandview, we were both very happy with our entrées. Highly recommend!
