Brunch review. I've been to Granite City a few times over the last year or two, but I was really impressed today with their brunch!
We started with the beverages and my husband had the Carnivore Bloody Mary which came with a beef stock, bacon, and a chicken wing on it and a beer chaser. You get to choose your vodka, spice level, beer chaser, and type of Bloody Mary. I had the a Infinite Mimosa which I loved and I was equally impressed with the great price ($7.99). You can choose one juice or all of them which is what I did. They bring you a little pitcher of each juice along with a pitcher of sparkling wine and you can build your own. It was fun and tasty. I also had coffee (because I apparently can't get enough beverages) and their coffee is fantastic!
They start you put with a Caramel roll each which was nice. They were a little dark, but still pretty tasty and it was a nice gesture.
The buffet itself was very good. They had a nice mix of breakfast and lunch type options as well as really good mini croissants, scones and muffins. They offered salad, French toast, great bacon and sausage, and eggs mixed with some breakfast potatoes, cheese and peppers, and a creole type rice dish with Andouille sausage and chicken. One of my favorite items was the biscuits and gravy which was flavorful with beautiful biscuits. The cheesy potatoes were also incredible!
They also offer a Build Your Own breakfast sandwich station which was my husband's favorite. Prime rib carving station and a Build Your Own donuts station rounded out the options. The donuts are fresh and warm and there are decorative frosting stations and toppings. I put chocolate frosting, chopped bacon, and chopped Heath bar on mine.
The service was extremely good...attentive and friendly which isn't always the case with buffets, and even the manager came and check to see how things were going.
We were very happy with our experience and will definitely be going back!
