A friend and I went to Granite City, located near the mall and shops in Rosedale Center. They were unveiling brand new menus tonight (new items such as asian glazed shrimp and extending their crafted cocktail menu while keeping classics like the GC meatloaf and their solid array of steaks)
I ordered a Boardwalk Empire, a wonderful drink mixed with Woodford Reserve bourbon, raspberry puree, simple syrup and lemonade. Definitely a drink I would mix at home, while my friend ordered a Jack Smash, with some J.D, chambord, sweet & sour and Smashed Raspberries
For an appetizer, we ordered soft pretzel sticks with a cheese dip made with one of their in-house crafted beers. These buttery wonders were perfectly baked and lightly salted to perfection.
I had their famous meatloaf. A perfect portion of well seasoned beef, coated in a delectable tomato sauce, piled high with onion strings all upon 2 buttered pieces of warm french bread. A delightful and filling meal indeed. My friend had a 4-Cheese pasta with chicken in alfredo sauce. She said that it was very tasty and filling. The portions at GC aren't large enough to share, but big enough to bring some home.
Overall I give Granite City 4 out of 5 Flames
