    Poor service, waited over 10 minutes for a drink. The side to my dinner was brought out with salads, well before the main dish was brought out. Two main dishes were brought out long before the other two. Overall not impressed with the experience.

    The patio is one of our favorite spots on the Plaza on a sunny day! Andrea is such a sweetheart - always taking care of us! Food, drinks and service are great.

    We studied the website and menu carefully and made reservations for lunch. We arrived at our booked time of 3 pm and after we were seated we were told lunch was over and only the bar/happy hour menu was available. Their website is misleading and ruined our celebration.

    Another excellent experience at Gram & Dun. Andrea was our server (again) and she does such an amazing job. Energetic, polite and not overbearing. We were celebrating my daughter's 21st birthday and once the owner, Stephen found out, he stopped by many times to see how the meal was. For dessert they brought over a bottle of champagne and a "shot" for her to celebrate her big day. The food was fantastic, and it was an all-around great evening! We will be back.

    Always clutch! My favorite spot on The Plaza. Whoever was working the bar and made my extra dirty martini last Friday night…best I’ve ever had. And I’ve had many. Absolute perfection.

    There wasn’t as much food on the octopus dish as there has been in the past. It seemed to be lacking some of the ingredients..

    We’ve been to Gram and Dun several times but this was not the Gram and Dun we remember. We went in on Sunday night to celebrate my husband’s 50th. It was not busy. Two girls were at the hostess stand when we walked in. They were talking to one another when we entered and we had to stand there for a minute before they would even look up and acknowledge us which is super annoying when your job is to greet guests. They did not make us feel welcome. Once we were seated, we waited another five minutes or so before anyone acknowledged us at our table. No one brought water or said someone would be with us in a minute. It was very bizarre. Finally our waiter came over. I do think he had the whole glass room by himself but it still didn’t seem right. He was nice enough but certainly wasn’t exceptional. As for the food, it wasn’t even as we remembered. I had the burnt end Mac n cheese and it lacked flavor. One of our daughters ordered a side of Mac n cheese to go with her steak and she thought it was grainy and weird. On a positive note, the Brussels sprouts were delicious. All in all though, I would say it was super disappointing especially given it was my husband’s 50th birthday and we spent over $300. We just left wishing we had gone somewhere else.
    Gram & DunResponded on February 21, 2025
    We're sorry to hear that your recent visit didn't meet expectations, especially for such a special occasion. This is not the experience we want for our guests. We appreciate your feedback and will address these concerns with our team. We hope to have the opportunity to provide the exceptional experience you remember in the future.
