I just had a delightful meal at grand cru! the cream of mushroom soup with truffle oil for a starter and the pulled pork and rice (with fresh cilantro, tomatoes, red onion) were both absolutely delicious.
i am a bit of a food snob as i just moved here from new york city a few months ago, and admittedly we’re all a bit pretentious when it comes to food. but dinner was honestly delicious.

the ambience is lovely, the service professional, attentive, and courteou;, and the wine selection is varied and just terrific.
i’m so glad i brought my friends tonight as we all had a great time!

thank you, grand cru! see you for champagne night this friday! and i can’t wait for the mega tasting on nov 1st!!

We have been meaning to try your wine bar for several months. Going to ignore the comments and give it a try next Wednesday night for my birthday. Looking forward to it! Thanks for running such a great promotion. We hope to love it and return again…

what kind of food is it?

For those who attended our first “Dinner on Us” event, I would like to thank you for all of your comments. Yes, the first night was a challenge. We were caught off guard by the initial positive response to participate in our “Dinner on Us” promotion. In our attempt to accommodate everyone’s reservation request, we made the mistake of allowing too many guests to arrive at the same time. This unfortunately led to slower service and in some cases the food quality was less than our usual standard. I would like to personally apologize to the guests who had an experience less than what we had set out to offer. Thank you again for your comments–they have been very helpful, and we have taken those comments and made changes and corrections to make the remaining two Wednesdays the experience we had hoped to create.
However the misunderstanding transpired, there is no requirement for any additional purchase with the “Dinner on Us” promotion unless the guest wishes to do so. We did state in all of our material that an 18% gratuity would be added to the entire bill including the value of the “Dinner on Us” portion. We hope that you will visit us in the future, and please feel free to call or e-mail me so I may personally handle your reservation.

Natasha, was the desert required as part of the ‘free’ meal?

This backfired, bigtime….. A family behind us left without paying and the only tables I saw were complaining both about service, the food, and final cost. I must admit, I left with a bad taste in my mouth as well. If I didn’t want to support this business, this would have been my last visit.
