Granite City Food & Brewery

Went there for the buffet style brunch. The food was delicious & a good variety to choose. However there were flies on the fruits and cocktail shrimps. Service was good, however spoons or stirs were not available to mix sugar/cream in our coffee.

We went for the Thanksgiving buffet. This is one of the more “reasonable” options in the area at $35/person. The food was okay. The turkey in the buffet was served already covered in gravy, no option if you aren’t a fan. Other than a green salad and cranberry sauce, all of the side dishes were starches or high in fat (looking at you green bean casserole). Serving trays were frequently empty without staff to refill. The plates were appetizer size, not meal size, this was frustrating when hoping to sample multiple things. Staff were on hand for drink orders, but glasses were not refilled - made that $3 soda feel like a rip off. Our semi large group was seated at a long table making it hard to chat. With tax and tip, (and soda). This ended up being closer to $50/person. Not sure it was worth it.

Pretty generic bar and grill atmosphere. Free beer tasting. The ones I tried were okay. Service was good. Prompt but chill. Mostly chicken and fish. Specials seem interesting. Margarita was strong.

Pretty solid brewery with a good menu. Pretty standard pub fair with some of the salad and seafood selection that I'd expect of a good chain place. Beers were good, and there was a nice selection of different types and flavor profiles available. Service was great as well, very nice and quick as well. Out of the nearby larger restaurants I'd go to this one first.

After Orland Park closed it had been a few years since we decided to go back to Granite City. Three of us had the Prime Sandwich which was good, but the fries were WAY over salted. After I had my last fry I had a 22 oz beer and 1 hour later I was still tasting salt and I had only eaten 1/3 of my fries. The jambalaya was also over salted unfortunately. Also the side of Sweet Potato fries was very small and for 4.50 that they charge I would recommend skipping that item. The picture in this review is before 1 fry was removed. Our server was very attentive and on point with refills and asking if we needed anything else. I may try it again in the future, but for now the salt left a bad taste in all of our mouths.

Top Notch Service. Best restaurant we've been to in awhile! Cameron was a great waiter. The beer is delicious, get a Northern. Flying monkey is great if cocktails are more your speed. Meatloaf was out of this world, the kid loved his pasta, and the flatbread left me wondering why I dont order that more often. Will come back when near Naperville. Also, green beans were the bomb dot com.

Calling all Australians! (or anyone that just likes a great Bar/Resturant experience.) Granite City was in the parking lot of my hotel that I stayed in for two weeks whilst in Naperville for work. The food there is great. The ‘Daily Deals’ are real value for money without skimping on quality or quantity. Great drink selection and, most importantly, fantastic staff. Special shout out to Amy, Andrea, Ashley, Marco, Arnoldo, Scott and especially Gianna. Their willingness to talk with me, educate me on American sports and have a laugh without compromising their duties was much appreciated. Huge similarities with my local pub in a small country town in Australia. A big Thank You to you all for looking after me (or maybe putting up with me?) for two whole weeks. Scott, you’ve got a great crew there!

Yum, yum yum yum yum!! Had the salmon 🍣 plate & it was delicious!! 😋 My friend had the impossible burger and devoured it! Lovely atmosphere adorable brewery, and fantastic staff!
