" I came to Grand Cru with my partner for a night out. The vibe was lovely, and the outdoor seating really added to it. The only downside was the confusion with our order; it took longer than expected for our food to come out. Fortunately, the duck dish was great when it finally arrived, rich and flavorful. Overall, nice place for a relaxed evening but they need to work on the timing of the food service! " (*Curated Review*)

" The experience at Grand Cru was a great mix of flavors and service. I started with a selection of cheeses that was delightful, then moved to the seared scallops which were simply divine! However, I found the portion sizes a bit small for the price point. Our server was friendly but seemed a little overwhelmed by the busy night. I still enjoyed my meal, but an improvement in pacing would enhance the overall experience. Definitely a place I would recommend to friends despite the minor hiccups. " (*Curated Review*)

" We enjoyed dinner at Grand Cru for a special occasion, and overall it was a wonderful experience! The menu was extensive with a range of French dishes to choose from. I opted for the duck confit, which was rich in flavor, but I found the portion to be smaller than expected. The atmosphere was lovely, and our server did an excellent job making sure we had everything we needed. A few minor tweaks would make it perfect, but we had a fantastic evening. " (*Curated Review*)

" I recently had lunch at Grand Cru and was pleasantly surprised. The place was bright and welcoming, making it an ideal spot for lunch. I had a mixed salad and the daily soup special, which was creamy and satisfying. However, my friend ordered the duck confit and was slightly disappointed; she said it was a bit too salty for her taste. Regardless of that, we enjoyed our time and will be back to try their wine flights, which seemed popular! " (*Curated Review*)

" Grand Cru is a lovely bistro featuring a fantastic outdoor space! I visited during the summer and enjoyed every moment. The bruschetta was fresh and tangy, the perfect way to start. I did find my seafood main a bit lackluster, and the garlic flavor was overpowered by something sweet. Even so, the service was friendly and attentive, which kept the experience pleasant. I look forward to visiting again and trying other menu items! " (*Curated Review*)

" I had the pleasure of celebrating my anniversary at Grand Cru and couldn't have asked for a better experience. The staff made us feel special, accommodating our every need. For the appetizer, we chose the escargot, which was beautifully cooked and flavorful. The lamb shanks were a highlight; they were tender and well-seasoned. The dessert we shared to finish was nothing short of spectacular. Over the course of the night, service was attentive, yet allowed us intimate time to celebrate. I cannot recommend this place enough! " (*Curated Review*)

" The best part about Grand Cru is how welcoming the staff is. However, my food experience this time left something to be desired. I ordered the risotto, and it came out way too salty. The atmosphere can be fabulous, especially sitting outside, but a mix of pitchy food can spoil it. I could see myself returning, but it'll need to be on a good day. " (*Curated Review*)
