    We always stop here when we are in town! Their drinks are our favorite and the food is also good. I think The Lavendar Brown is my favorite cocktail that I’ve ever had

    The food at Gram and Dun is very good consistently, as is the service. The enjoyment of one’s dinner is often assaulted by the noise of a full house, with everyone talking at the top of their voice. When one table near us arose and departed, we immediately noticed an easing of the noise level. This has for as long as we’ve been going to Gram and Dun, noise has been a problem. The architecture of the room makes it happen. We found the hostess reception extremely thoughtful and accommodating. Our waiter was good, but seemed run ragged by his tables. It was eight o’clock, and my wife and I wanted to share one entree and a side. The waiter was kind, telling us the kitchen would prepare our shared plates. Nothing was said by the waiter or the menu, that that courtesy would cost us ten dollars. Had I known that, I would have simply ordered my own entree. Restaurant dining is getting very expensive, and such unadvised charges do not help me to feel understanding of it.

    It was too loud for our sensibilities - but the experience was wonderful. Megan, our bartender/server, was fabulous!

    Very crowded and very loud! Seems to be a happening place. Holidays always are a busy time for the restaurant industry. Hats off to the servers trying to allow us to create memories and enjoy each others company. Unfortunately the food is lackluster and extremely bland. We ordered a little bit of everything just to make sure to try it all. There is not one thing we would go back for. We didn’t bother with dessert as the whole meal was disappointing. Drinks and servers were spot on. I’d possibly go back for a happy hour in the summer when it’s spaced out onto the patio.

    We've eaten at G&D many times. This was our first time that we did not enjoy the experience. It was our anniversary and when we booked with open table we shared this fact on our reservation. Nothing was mentioned when we arrived, our table was a flat top in a very noisy area full of screaming children. We asked to be moved to a booth. Service was great and what we expected. Menu has changed and not for the better. We miss the homemade chips with the vanilla bean ketchup, the current ketchups were something you can get at a fast food restaurant. Our steaks had no seasoning (salt or pepper), potatoes were under cooked/raw and flavorless. We've eaten at fine restaurants all over the World and know the difference between mediocre and excellent. Our food was mediocre and not what we've enjoyed from G&M. Hopefully this was an event not a trend and G&B isn't trying to improve their P&L by cutting corners.

    Thank you, Kevin for the feedback. Our chips & dipped have remained the same. Our fall/winter menu is new. Were you able to speak to the manager and get a different entree to your liking?
