The long lasting established “Corner House” on Lincoln avenue keeps moderate “American and Irish” atmosphere feel and moderate food to this Restaurant and Bar in Grant City.
We have went out for a friend’s graduation, looking somewhere simple and quite serving home made meals and decided to try The Corner House. The overall feel of the restaurant is that it is a neighborhood bar and dining room (Grill). Many locals would chose this place for a place to hang out and enjoy a couple of drinks with there buddies while watching the game. It also a place for a quite dinner on a weekday and friend get-together on a weekend.
The Corner house does not live up to expectations as a “Great Food” experience. The service was not anything special at the same time. The food (My Seafood was flavourless) a couple of friends who had ribz, burger and fried fish all said it was great. So it is possible that only the seafood wasn’t that great (But, I am the one writing the review so we must focus on my meal)
Let’s get to the review:
- Service: Noticeable Slow, I had to get up and ask for gravy, sauces and even to get a refill of our beer.
- The Food: The Ribz seemed decent, something I may want to try next time. But the seafood platter would something I would not order again as the full meal tasted flavourless. I do understand that much seafood (Shrimps, Calamari and flounder) naturally does not have much flavour, but it is the way they are cooked that can add a certain feel of taste which Corner House forgot to do.
-> Seafood included: Crab Cake, Scallops, Shrimp and Flounder with side of Mashed Potatoes and Vegetables.
-> The Portion was moderate size for 20$.
That pretty much sums up the Corner House, and yes even though I was not satisfied with my Seafood, I still will be back to this establishment for the general feel and atmosphere which is very comfortable environment. I may chose to enjoy a burger in the future or even come back for there for Corn Beef and Cabbage during Saint Patties.
