I eat out quite a bit here in the quad cities area, and this is probably all around one of my favorite places. There is a wide variety of food to please pretty much anyone and everything is pretty dang good. I highly recommend the big show burger, it's probably my favorite thing and it will not disappoint. I've also had the salmon, the flatbreads, and it's all pretty dang good.

Good food, but on the expensive side for the type of joint. At the bar, if you're ordering mixed drinks, order double tall, long pours. Then, call a cab.
(3)Karen S.
The food was overall delicious and perfectly made. The only problem I had was that our wait staff was a little slow coming around. But otherwise this place is amazing.

Finding good brunch spots in the Quad Cities when you are used to brunch spots in Chicago can be tricky. Thank God a Granite City exists here. The food is in a buffet style, but almost everything they have out is pretty good. They also had an omelet station and what appeared to be a prime rib station but I couldn't see that one well because it was a bit crowded. The restaurant isn't actually set up for buffet style service so it can get a little crowded. Overall though they do a great job. Will be going back for brunch soon.

Granite city is my favorite franchise, I am not usually not that excited about chains, but GC has amazing food and great service. Every entree I have had was great, good beer too!!

Two of us had lunch here on a Friday. I was seated immediately and waited. They don't take reservations. We decided to split the flatbread our waiter recommended. It had bacon and was very tasty. I suspect it had many more calories than I would want to consume. Our waiter was very attentive. He also knew his beers. I asked for a beet that wasn't too hoppy and his choice was on target. Bathroom clean.
(3)Claudia J.
Very attentive staff, great food and excellent soups and tortilla chips (and I am Mexican so I've tried heaps of them). Slightly salty for me. Overall, very recommendable.
(4)Benji S.
This is a staple when i'm in the QC. Upscale relaxed atmosphere with good beer and food. Recommend: the overlake or a burger.
(4)Barry T.
Great beer selection. Sat at the bar and had the Trio fish tacos - really good. Tried the beer flight and every beer was unique and above average. Great spot - everything you'd expect from a brewery/food joint. Prices are decent.
(4)Ben R.
Owning a restaurant, I enjoy spending my free time exploring other restaurants. I had a friend in town, so the wife and I decided to take him here since we were the area, place to grab a bite, a drink and watch some early football. As a fish taco fanatic, I enjoyed the presentation with the taco holders. However, I am not a fan of flour tortillas. These tacos would have been ideal with two corn tortillas but what to expect in Iowa. Service was pleasant and drinks were good. Enjoyable chain restaurant experience.
(3)Ray B.
Ate at the bar- great service and friendly wait staff. Being a club member helped the value factor.
(4)Trish G.
Ate there yesterday for my sons college graduation and really they must of had an off day. Very blah
(2)Anne F.
This Granite City has friendly wait staff. The food was all very good. Ate there twice for lunch this week and service was very prompt.

On a quick TDY trip to Rock Island Arsenal (awesome gun collection at their museum!) so our comrades took us out to dinner to Granite City. Normally when I'm TDY, I like to eat/drink at places that are local; Granite City isn't local (not sure how big a chain it is) but I've also never been to one so I guess that doesn't really violate the "local" rule too much! First off, place is very nice and large; big bar area, outdoor space and large dining area. One side of the restaurant is windowed off to display the large beer vats of the beers they brew onsite. They offered up about 5-6 different types of beer; I went with the Batch 1000 (Double IPA) and was rewarded for my selection; hoppy, crisp and strong! Had to stop at one but I really enjoyed that one. For dinner I went with the "Adult Bock Mac & Cheese"; more of an alfredo than I would say Mac and Cheese but the cheese sauce was complex with the Bock beer, bacon, red pepper flakes, three types of cheese and then breadcrumbs and chicken thrown in for good measure. The penne was a good mix with the alfredo and more than hit the spot on that wintry night! It wasn't too big a portion either so I didn't feel completely stuffed after eating. Other dishes run the gamut from flatbread pizza to steaks and chops so there is a little bit for everyone there. All in all a solid place made better with the company I kept. Definitely worth a try if you are in the Quad Cities area...

I visit this location often. The food never disappoints however the service at times does. The food and beer is well worth the wait on the times the service is awful.
(4)Simon R.
I was seated for 5 minutes, I timed it, 3 servers walked past me but none even said hello. I didn't have my drink order in within 5 minutes and no acceptance of my existence so I left.
(1)Francesca S.
Tonight I went here at about 5:45 for my birthday dinner. The line seemed long at first, but once we got into the restaurant we got seated right away. The waitress was very friendly and polite, and the food was great. I had a lemonade and buffalo chicken wings! They were the best wings I have ever had. can't wait to come back!
(5)Denny L.
American-style regional chain restaurant. We used to come here on almost a weekly basis, but the food/service have really gone downhill over the last few years. The menu switched up and they removed my absolute favorite (BBQ pork chops), and they also adjusted their beer menu to move some standard beers to seasonal status (seriously, their stout is now seasonal). They also began charging for the table bread, which is just absurd for a restaurant like this. The flat-bread pizzas are pretty decent, and are 1/2 price from 3-6 and 9-close. Join the mug club (basically for free) and get larger draft beers for cheaper than you'd normally pay for the smaller pour. Not a bad place for the Quad Cities, but headed in the wrong direction.

We hadn't been to this restaurant since last visiting it over a decade ago when we lived in Denver. We hadn't been particularly attached when we had been in Denver. I remember thinking it was awfully crowded and not all that gratifying. However, on a whim, we decided to try the one here in town. Surprising, this has become one our favorite options when we are dining out without the kids. This isn't to say that the kids do badly here, but the prices are high enough that I don't enjoy paying for a family of five. They do have a kids' menu though. I joined the beer club. Therefore, I get upgrades on my beers and I get a modest discount. There's no military discount, but it's still all good! There's supposedly some other perks related to the beer club, but I doubt I'd ever use them. You can see the large beer vats through a window in the restaurant. I've never seen them tend to the vats though... I wonder when they do that. The food is good. The beer is good. Seating can be a wait on a busy weekend night, but we usually just try to show up before it's gotten too late, as is the method of choice at any of the other nearby restaurants. I've always been happy with the flavor of my meal, and the service has always been friendly. FYI: They do NOT accept reservations, even though they are listed here as a place that does. They have everything from really elaborate looking burgers to flatbreads to seafood to pasta to steaks. I've never had anything that didn't taste good to me. Nice ambiance overall, sometimes it's a bit loud. I'd like to try their brunch at some point. The menu looks very inviting.
(4)Jessica C.
I went here for the first time a few days ago and wasn't as impressed as I thought I'd be, after hearing great reviews about the place from friends and family in the past. I don't know if it was because we were in a hurry to eat so we could see a movie or what, but the service seemed snail-paced. The waitresses were alright but really impersonal, as if they didn't want to spend too much time actually interacting with customers (and I've worked in retail so I understand that, but I wasn't working for tips...). The food itself wasn't bad, I got the Bock Macaroni and Cheese and my only complaint is that it was pretty runny, otherwise the flavor was good and it was a sizeable portion for lunch. My mum got the Asian Chicken Salad, which I kind of wish I had gotten because it was fantastic when I tried it. The presentation, however, looked worse than when I make a salad at home and slap it on a paper plate. Might want to work on that. Overall, I'd go back again if someone I was with wanted to go, but otherwise I'll probably pass.
(3)Stephenie L.
I just came back here for the first time in a long time the other night. We were coming for a late dinner, thinking we'd be okay since they didn't close for another 2 hours. We got here at 10 and the bartender told us that we could only order appetizers or their flat bread. Kind of disappointing but we went w/ a flat bread and it wasn't horrible. Nothing too exciting or memorable but good nonetheless. The bartender and server were both really nice, especially our server. We kind of lingered a little longer than we should've and she was extremely patient with us. I'd come back but I'll definitely keep an eye on the time.
(4)Joe S.
Terrible service for some reason this is common here. Food ok but if the service sucks defeats the purpose of the meal..
(1)Chelsea L.
Stopped-in for a late night dinner (~10PM) Place was still busy, but not too loud or crazy, especially in the dining room, which was actually quite pleasant. Our server was friendly and attentive, even when she had to admit that they were out of an ingredient for the drink I ordered and did I mind picking another? We split an order of boneless wings as an appitiser, which were pretty good - not too heavy on the breading, but were a bit too perfect; they probably came out of a box. For entreés I had the "adult" mac and cheese and it was great. REALLY rich; when they sat the bowl down at first I thought the serving would be too small, but it was so heavy I could barely finish it. My husband described his burger as "nothing to write home about" but it was gone in hardly any time at all and I heard no complaints. Sadly, neither of us are beer drinkers, so we didn't sample any of the house brews, but they seemed to at least know what they're doing.
(4)Mark S.
Visiting from LA. We really enjoyed this place. Good atmosphere and good service. We had the shrimp tacos and the margherita flatbread which were excellent. Enjoyed the beer selection as well. We'll be back next time we are in town.
(4)Kylie G.
Always delicious! Great for any celebration or a tantalizing meal out "just because." The service is professional while still remaining welcoming and friendly. And the servers are always very knowledgeable about the menu. However, I wish their food menu was as extensive as their drinks menu.....
(5)Rebecca M.
I stay at the hotel next door quite often and regularly go to Granite City for dinner. I have tried the shrimp tacos, the BBQ chicken pizza, as well as a few of the soups, and I have thoroughly enjoyed everything I have tried. I love their craft beer selection, and the service is fantastic. Plus, they have great late-night food specials, so it is a great option after working late when everything else is closed. I will definitely keep frequenting GC until I leave the Quad Cities!
(4)Sanford B.
Traveling from Michigan to Texas and stopped in Hotel adjacent to this restaurant. Front desk recommended it. Wife and I were seated promptly but in a crowded table tight area. Great looking menu, a little pricy. Wife ordered a glass of wine. Wine arrived in dirty glass. Waitress advised, and she said she would replace the wine but left the dirty glass on table. I took wine to the bar area and a manager brought a fresh glass in a little while and advised there would be no charge for the wine. Wife ordered salad that was ok. I ordered Pecan Encrusted Pork Chops. My entrée arrived with the pork chops warm and the side dishes cold. When asked if everything was ok we informed management, and they brought new heated side dishes. THESE WERE THE BEST TASTING PORK CHOPS I EVER ATE. So tender you could cut them with a fork. After dinner the manager came to our table to apologize for the experience we had and took an additional $ 25.00 off our bill. Overall impression, was that this is a very busy, loud brewpub with the ability to become excellent with a little more attention to the items being served. Great management efforts to make things right even though we don't live in the area and are unlikely repeat visitors.

Granite City Food & Brewery is my all-around favorite restaurant in the Quad Cities. We joke GCFB is "our McDonalds" because we often end up eating dinner here on a random Tuesday night when we just don't feel like cooking. No matter what I'm in the mood for Granite City has it, from fish tacos, burgers, pasta, or delicious salads. My favorite entrees are the fish tacos (tilapia), simply grilled salmon (or the more expensive salmon Oscar when somebody else is paying) and the Asian chicken salad. Brother Benny is a flavorful beer you should check out. Save room for dessert because the warm giant cookie and the double chocolate cake are decadent. Service is almost always excellent and the managers are usually visible on the floor to check how your meal is going. I love this restaurant so much I have my birthday party/dinner here every year. They do a great job handling a party of 25 people with special requests and multiple checks with grace and efficiency. Granite City is an excellent choice for casual dining.

I came for the Sunday brunch. The cinnamon roll was the best ever, the cheesy-spicy chicken soup was delish, and the eggs benedict was amazing. Not sure it lived up to the hype though. I had prime rib with au jus and it was very salty. I choked it down because it's a crime to waste prime rib. Tried the mashed potatoes with gravy as well, and that was also way too salty for my taste. I probably will not come and spend so much money on this brunch buffet again unless someone else was paying. Oh, I was impressed with the wait list even though I was on it for a half an hour. There was a big screen behind the hostess stand with the list displayed so you could see where you were on it. Very nice staff.
(3)Joshua W.
Just made a flatbread pizza for us that's been off the menu for 6 months. Yep that's awesome service. Also great food and awesome beers that they brew.
(5)Chels I.
Came here Sunday morning for brunch. They have a make your own omelet station. My bf got the everything omelet which he enjoyed. I personally stuck with the buffet, cinnamon rolls were fantastic! Wasn't a huge fan of the cinnamon flavored waffles or the French toast. I didn't personally see any desserts-- they had am cheesy hashbrowns that I also wasn't a fan. While I normally loveeeee their dinner menu, I wouldn't come back for their brunch!
(4)Jake G.
Not 6 star caliber food but for the money it's fantastic! You won't be disappointed with this place ! Had dinner here pasta was really good! Love the micro brew .
(4)Andrea A.
I am not from the area but travel here often. I stay at the Hampton next door. I almost always stop in for dinner at Granite City Brewery. I have always had pleasant experiences until now. I was dining with 2 co-workers and we arrived at 7:30 on a Monday night. Rory was our waiter and he was awful. He never cleared any dishes and we had to ask for refills. Half way through our main course when he finally came around to check on us I had to ask for my salad. Then he didn't even offer to take it off my bill. I left a small tip, 3 glasses, my main course plate an appetizer plate and my salad plate in front of me at the end of the night. Good food......poor service!
(2)K. M.
I had 2 good meals here and I was lured back by the open atmosphere but the service is consistently slow and when the server is at your table chances are they're not paying attention. I tried the flatbread pizza appetizer, it had toppings that sounded delicious but it was so salty that it was impossible to distinguish all the different flavors. The last time we went I was meeting my husband there. He was seated but no one took his name and when I came in I was left to wander around the crowded dining area by myself because the hostess was busy flirting. When I finally found my husband we waited 10 minutes for the server before we walked out. I won't be going back.
(1)A S.
Been here many times before. Always a good experience. Tonight food was good, but service was awful. I tip good, tonight Rory got less than a 10 percent tip. Never cleared our plates, when i asked for refills the empty glasses never left the table, after our food came out our waiter never checked on us. And when he finally did we were half way done with our main course I had to ask for my salad. He handed me the bill with the salad still on it. I used to love this place.
(2)Debi D.
Used to enjoy the food, but in the past year the quality of ingredients has gone way down.
(3)Frank K.
Everything that could go wrong with servive went very bad. 0. The pager did not work. The hostess later told us that she'd been tryin to page us for 20 minutes- we pointed at pager on bar table which was not sounding. Hostess showed frustration - as if we were ignoring the page. They made us sit at a table in the bar. 1. Our salads and appetizer served at same time without eating utensils. They were not given to us promptly. Shouldn't the appetizer be served before the salad?? 2. When utensils eventually arrived, found one fork was dirty with food particles on it. Waitress abruptly grabbed the fork without comment when we pointed it out. 3. Our food entree (including a steak) was served to our table before we had a chance to even start eating salads and appetizers- I told them to send steak back to kitchen (which they did). I will say the steak tasted good after they brought it back to me after we finished our salads. 4. I requested a refill on my beer but did not get it within 15 minutes. I had to yell to another waitress to get it. 5. Manager never introduced himself to us after all the above happened - although we saw him talking to server about us. We saw him stare at us but he never introduced himself. This was first time coming to this restaurant and I doubt I will ever come back.
(1)Emily R.
The adult Mac and cheese and the fish tacos are my go to items on the menu. Although, I am sure everything is just as delicious. And being able to pair your dinner with a speciality brew is a great touch! And GREAT service.
(5)Shengte Y.
First meal in Quad Cities and was pleasantly surprised. The place was packed at 5pm on a Friday night and the hostess estimated a 45 minute wait which was fine by us because it was too early for dinner so we had a drink at the bar but the wait ended up being only 20 minutes. Since this is a craft brewery house of course they have to have some sort of beer sampler on the menu so I gave it a shot and was surprised to get 7 different beers at pretty large pours for $4.95. Definitely a great deal! The food here was average in price and quality as most chain restaurants in Los Angeles, nothing great but not bad either. However, we ordered two steak salads and they were terrible. Both were drenched in dressing to the point of being inedible. One of the salads had more olives than greens. Luckily we had a great waitress who was very attentive and cracked jokes with us every time she came by and when she saw the salad situation, she brought it to the managers attention and had it taken off the bill. Great service.
(4)Jodie S.
Eight of us celebrated my nieces college graduation on a Saturday and our experience was great! We ordered various dishes and all the food was great but we were most impressed with the service we received from our server, Troy. Best service I've ever had in a restaurant, hands down. He went out of his way to answer our questions, was quick to refill our drinks and did little things we didn't expect! I'll definitely go back
(5)Tim L.
I went here with my family twice and we all have sampled the menu pretty well. As said on a previous review the servers know the items very well and are honest about things such as if the raspberry iced tea is brewed or powdered or if the meat on the hamburgers is fresh or frozen and what the type of meat is. I have just had the adult mac and cheese and a sort of alfredo which were both great pasta dishes. My uncle from California also stated that the blue cheese burger was the best he had ever had.
(4)Kris S.
very disappointing. First, out of fish tacos (a chef's feature) so ordered sliders (also chef's feature) because they were advertised on Big Pretzel Buns. They arrived on nasty plain buns. Should have been told this when ordered. Won't go back
(2)Pablo S.
This place after 6pm, no matter the day, is always packed. The wait is generally less than 30 minutes. I enjoy coming here with people who are from out of town. The beers are decent for a microbrew. The food, however, is pretty good and I haven't eaten a bad dish yet. There is a lot of room and it is pleasant to sit outside if you ever get the chance.
(4)Chris B.
Granite City redeemed themselves with the prime rib today (as if they'd ever lost points with me to begin with). I had a short wait before being seated and then enjoyed fast service. The food was absolutely delicious.
(5)Kyle W.
Appalling levels of service. We ordered soft pretzel sticks with cheese as an appetizer and they came out nearly blackened. They were hard, and had clearly been cooked for too long given the bubbles that had appeared on the outside. Anyone in their right mind would have prevented that food from being served, but no one ever thought of it. Our waitress never checked in with us, so we had to find a manager to be able to complain about this awfully prepared dish. The rest of the meal was just okay. The food is nothing special and tends to be overpriced. But the service was awful. Even after complaining to the manager about the inattentive and rude server, nothing got better. And while they took the inedible pretzels off the bill, nothing else was done to remedy the situation. Though I've enjoyed Granite City in the past, this service makes me never want to go again.
(1)Tia S.
First time visiting this establishment! The staff was nice and I liked the fact at how attentive my waitress was. I absolutely LOVE.. Did I say LOVE the Truffle fries! OMG. I love them... I went there to order the steam mussles (got hooked on those lately from another restaurant) so I wanted to try Granite City but I ordered the meat loaf instead because mussels weren't what I expected when the waitress explained them.Nonetheless, I'm glad I choose the meat loaf. You know the days when it's gloomy, snowing, etc outside you want something nice and hearty. Well the meatloaf served me well. I was a bit skeptical at first cause I normally don't eat meatloaf out but the waitress said it was good and she was right. Large portion which made my eyes widen when I seen it. Whew.. It was topped with cripsy onion strings and this onion tamoto sauce (awesome by the way) and instead of having the mashed potatoes it came with, I choose the truffle fries and I'm so happy I did! Man this dinner was good!!! I would reccommend this place to someone!! I will definitely go back to try something different in the future as well as grab a glass of wine!
(4)Danielle S.
I've been here numerous times for drinks, dessert, brunch, lunch, and dinner. Food is always good, drinks are great, and never had problems with the service. It can be a casual outing or a nicer dinner. The brunch is pretty good - not the best I've ever had but decent. They have a mimosa/bloody mary bar that is something different during brunch. Overall it is my favorite for a drink and dessert. Something casual, not too fancy, and simple.
(4)Mike And Tina M.
Good place to eat, but the best way I can describe some of the food and especially the beer is uninspired and one dimensional. The atmosphere was great and looks like an upscale brewery. The beer is very one dimensional and reminded me of Budweiser. It was good however not complex and not something that I would have an urge to go back for. The appetizer was great and very tasty however their main course could have been better. The steak was overcooked however had good flavor and the pasta had a very strong taste of fennel. Overall I would say Granite City is Ok, it reminded me of a typical hotel restaurant. It wasn't something I would eagerly look forward to, however I would not avoid it.
(3)Mit N.
Misleading name. With the word "brewing" in the name I expected good beers. They only had a few of their own drafts, and they were out if the IPA for at least a week. I asked what IPA was filling in while theirs was out, and the waiter seemed surprised I would ask such a thing. I had the shrimp tacos and my associate had a burger. Both were decent, but not unique. Better than Applebee's, but clearly not a true brew pub.
(3)jennifer s.
Never disappoints, excellent food all around and good service.
(4)gummy j.
The food is pretty good here, I liked the grill meatloaf. It's a little spin on the classic. It's probably a notch better than your standard pizza/brewery place.
(4)Amanda H.
My friend and I stopped in for a late lunch appetizer and beer before heading to the stores. I had the shandy and she had the two pull. Both tasted great with the crinkle fry nachos. Our waitress was very entertaining and we will definitely be stopping by again on shopping trips.
(4)Mike And Nita B.
Food was decent, service not very attentive.
(3)Marty W.
Great food and service great beer awesome atmosphere
(5)Stephanie Y.
Not good - the Reuben was greasy and the 1,000 Island dressing was white. WTF is that about? Also my fries were ice cold and loaded with salt. Our waiter was great. We had a party of 6 and he didn't right a single thing down, but our orders were all correct. Even the special requests.
(2)Joshua B.
Zack was a solid bartender. You can tell he is either well trained, has experience, or both. Cajun Pasta was good. I was offered a double for an extra dollar which seemed odd - kind of like an airport sales pitch. I've been to a few GC's and this was one of my better experiences.
(4)Shayra A.
Let's have beer!! Well... noooo... I was here for lunch, so unfortunately I couldn't have anything to drink since I was going back to work, but I found it to be very similar to like BJs back in my home town. Very attentive service and plenty of choices on the menu. Everything we had was good. I even liked the mussels which I didn't think were going to be the best.
(4)Jason M.
Granite City is a microbrew chain based in the Midwest. As this was my first time at any location I was both impressed and unimpressed with the Davenport location. The positives are that the location is new. The facility is gorgeous and there are huge microbrew tanks inviting you to imbibe on Granite's 4 types of beer. Although disappointed to find no Belgian Style Wheat Beer they did have a gamut of selections. I had a 25oz double pull (their version of the half and half) which was quite scrumptious. Let me also note that service was exquisite. What I didn't enjoy was the food quality. Both my guest and I ordered salads. We both were disappointed to find sopping plates of lettuce overly garnished in portion sizes that were too large. The Bruschetta salad came with slices of Bruschetta more akin to having a loaf of bread on your salad. The Asian Salad came inundated with a pile of crispy wontons that could be used to dam up the Mississippi. I cannot speak to the other portions of the menu, but would not recommend either salad. All in all I would say Grantie City is worth a try. At worst you can enjoy a beer and then escape to dine at another location.
(3)Mary B.
Ate here for lunch with my young family and some friends of mine. The food was excellent, the service was great, the restaurant was clean (including the restrooms). We really enjoyed our lunch and catching up with our friends! I ordered the bruschetta salad and shared it with my 4 & 5 year old girls and we still couldn't eat it all! It was so yummy - I'm just itching to go back and order it again!
(4)Justin J.
We have been to this establishment on several occasions. Sometimes the food is good, sometimes its cold and tasteless. Sometimes the service is good, other times its terrible. I love a nice casual restraunt but for the price you pay here, they really need some consistency. I would highly recommend finding somewhere else to eat !!!
(3)Chris E.
We eat here all the time, so I feel like I should review it. GC has a pretty large menu, and everything I've had here is pretty solid and consistent. For some reason, it just really doesn't do much for me. I've never had a bad meal here, and the service is always great, but this is typically not at the top of my list for places to go eat. The all-you-care-to-eat brunch on Sundays is always pretty good, though pricey (I think in the neighborhood of $14?). It has fresh fruit, biscuits and gravy, sausage, salads, delicious, delicious bacon, eggs, usually a pasta dish, carved roast beef, and sometimes an omelet station. I'm not a big breakfast food person, so I have trouble feeling like I'm getting my money's worth, but breakfast lovers may not have this problem. Other notable items: - Their in-house beers are good. You can also buy it by the growler (1 1/2 liters, I think) and take some home with you. There are a couple days of the week where you can get your growler refilled for $10 (as of this writing, anyway). - They have a "Mug Club" card that gets you discounts on meals and drinks (and if you use it enough, lets you cash in "points" for items, but you'd have to eat / drink there a LOT to get anything of decent value). I think you usually have to pay a fee to get the card, but they occasionally run promotions where you can get a card for free, so check with your server or something.
(3)Tom N.
To me this place is just mediocre. It's reminds me of places like CPK, Islands, or some micro brewery I see all the time on the west coast. I had the lunch special and it was just mediocre, exactly what I expected. I wish I had more time to find a small family run hole in the wall. There should be tons of them in a town like Davenport.
(3)Nils S.
First time here, and quite impressed. Large seating area, including outside, so doesn't feel crowded. Good selections on the menu (seafood, salads, meat), plus weekly specials. Tried the Korean Tacos (thin spiced beef with toppings in soft-taco shell). Just the right taste. Appetizers are quite large. Ambience is trendy, not like other generic places. Very friendly service.

My husband and I eat at Granite City a lot, both for business and pleasure. The food is good; the wait, if there is one is usually not too bad; and the staff are very attentive. The Sunday prime rib brunch is very good although expensive (more than dinner we usually order). I often crave the truffle fries. Only bad thing is sometimes the noise level is a bit aggressive.

Good locally brewed beers. View on the beer tanks adds a richness to the already warm dinning environment. They recently freshened up the decor. Busy location any evening of the week. Prices are above average but portions are HUGE. Everything looks good on the menu, but the ruben would be much better with fresh cut meat.

I am surprised to see all the negative comments here. I find this to be a very good place to eat. The two pull beer is one of my all time favorites. I think everyone should try it and make up your up your own mind. I continue to eat there and like it very much.

Thanks to Jason M's recommendation and the convenient stumbling distance from my hotel I gave Granite City a try. I did get my wheat beer but it wasn't listed so I assume was a rotation. I got a spinach artichoke chicken sandwich was that I enjoyed; a bit different than the normal bar fare. The chips, however, were clearly the grunyans at the bottom of the batch crushed in to oblivion. Happy hour yielded quite the deal on these 20 oz'er beers. Yelp: we need half stars. I give this 3.5 so I'm going to give 4 to average Jason M.'s

It's good for a decent size chain. Pretty good food for a reasonable price. My wife loves their raspberry mojitos and I do enjoy their brews. The couple times we have eaten there we had a pretty good experience. I would say it's pretty much in line with most brewery chains.

I'll always remember the eggs benedict with their bernaise sauce. This place is good for brunch.

Service at times can be on the slow side due to customer volume. Their french onion soup is very good. I stick to the lunch menu but have had Sunday brunch, which was better than average.
