    Great service and buffet was good except the prime rib and potatoes rib were cold and had an ice cream scooper the potatoes where they were too cold to scoop out. We were all looking forward to the prime rib. Brought out of town guests and that was a bit of a disappointment. Plus we didn’t know you had to order brunch… had an elderly family member that barely eats and egg and bacon and seemed like a bit of a waste fore her to pay for a full buffet. But our server was awesome and the rest of the meal was very good. Also appreciated the table being set for 12 as I had left a message. Much appreciated.

    Buffet area was not as clean as I would prefer to see. Food laying on the table cloth. Most food was only a little on the warm side could have been hotter

    Met expectations very well! Only negative was that we were seated directly beneath a vent and it was freezing! A support group I participate in dines at the Granite City frequently, and it is a common complaint that the air handlers put out so much cold air. We’ve all gotten used to the fact that we need to carry a jacket because it’s so cold.
