In the summer, I took a dear friend to Willful Wine for lunch. A few months later, she said, I want to go back to the Grant House for lunch. I had the best grilled cheese sandwich of my life. So, we took her back for her 90th birthday in November. The food and service are excellent.

One of my very favorite places to eat. Beautiful, clean, great food and service. Outdoor patio for warm weather. Room for 10 for a special private gathering. Have nothing but positive things to say.

A great historical location. Sitting outside is the best. Limited menu is good but the food was average at best and the service was slow. It took an hour to get our entrees. Disappointing based on our previous experience with a different restaurant owner before the pandemic.

I'm sorry you had a negative experience John. I passed on your comments to our front of house manager and chef. We don't a large staff in the kitchen but we don't usually have that kind of wait time for food, and that is absolutely unacceptable. We try to learn whatever we can from any less than stellar reviews to try to constantly improve what we offer. Feel free to reach out to me through our web site if you have any other thoughts at all.

What a beautiful area (historic Fort Vancouver park) and the amazing Grant House on Officer's Row. Our waitstaff was very nice and filled us in on some of the history, as well as, all the wines they had on hand. Our group of six ordered many of the different menu items ,but I had the homemade gnocchi with bolognese sauce which was incredible. Definitely going back!!!
