Restaurants near Charleroi Locks & Dam

It was chaotic and the servers/valet/chefs/reception personnel were handling it with Grace and patience. The food was awesome and the buffets were kept filled. It was a very special outing with a special group of friends celebrating a wonderful holiday season. I would highly recommend the grand concourse for any special occasion.

We were in the new room upstairs and all the way in the back. It was a little noisy because of party near us and the acoustics of the room. Felt a little out of the vibe of the restaurant which was why we were there for my daughter’s birthday- her pick. We had burrata and bread board which was yummy. I had the short ribs which were amazing. My husband had the beef special and my daughter had pasta with grilled chicken. They weren’t thrilled with their picks - I think because mine was so good. Our dessert was amazing and so good. It was a chocolate bomb of goodness. Our waiter was a bald friendly guy who was wonderful and is a really great asset and cheerleader for your restaurant. Sorry I’m horrible with names but he deserves a raise. I would definitely recommend and can’t wait to see what amazing things this group has for 2025!

Hostess was friendly and kind enough to offer to hang our coats when we got seated. That was a First and much appreciated, although not necessary. Sat in the bar for holiday cocktails and quick afternoon appetizer during a busy day of shopping. The Brisket quesadilla were delicious and always on point. Unfortunately, the spiced sangria was lacking the cinnamon and clove. I had the sangria three weeks ago and it was superb; today, not enough spice and tart. The prickly pear margarita was off. The Bartender mentioned how they changed the recipe, but I think she used too much mix. Our waitress/ bartender was refilling what I believe was the cranberry simple syrup into pour bottles with a measuring cup scooping into a 5 gallon bucket at the bar. It was not very pleasing to watch while sitting in the restaurant. Definitely something that should have been done out of sight. 

It was my husband and mine first dining experience at this restaurant. Staff was extremely kind and on point, especially our server Brian! The food was off the charts delicious; fresh ingredients, balanced and unique flavors that was surprisingly familiar to me from an amazing restaurant in Bellevue that we previously frequented (closed years ago)…to my delight, we learned from the extremely personable General Manager Angie, that the owner of this restaurant had previously worked at that Bellevue location and had a business dealing with that owner as well. We also thoroughly enjoyed the gigantic meatball appetizer, the perfect bread (crispy on the outside and soft in the middle) served with a tasty infused dipping oil, the house salad (one of the best that I have ever had and the dressing was extremely reminiscent of that restaurant in Bellevue), and the Canestri bolognese entree was just incredible (a very generous portion)!! In addition, this restaurant (been at the previous restaurant a few times called The Classroom) is beautifully charming!! My husband and I look forward to returning soon to enjoy another delicious meal…my goal over the coming year, will be to have tried everything on the menu!!

We decided to try the resteraunt for a family celebration for a college graduation. I mentioned it would be a graduation when I made the reservation but didn’t request anything special. We were pleasantly surprised to be greeted with a private room decorated beautifully for the holidays and the occasion. We had first class service from multiple staff doting on us including the manager. Our server was top tier! Fabulous wine list, table side cace de oepe and veal chops were delicious with superb presentation. They quickly made accommodations for an allergy and an offered a vegetarian menu option. We are an Italian family who love to cook and eat and it’s hard to impress us but we were all over the moon with our experience and meals. They even treated the graduate to a special dessert! Definitely felt like an elevated family Italian celebration!. Truly impressed and we will be back!! Highly recommend!
