| - My wife and I had been to Grove Hill once before, several months ago. It has gone down hill fast. The restaurant was packed the first time we were here, and it was half empty the second time around. People
Must be catching on. We had a double date last night, and were very disappointed. First off, our waiter was not friendly or accommodating at all. It seemed like the bigger tables were more worthy of his attention. Either way, I can't remember a less personable server. He barely acknowledged us all evening.
Perhaps more importantly, the food was not good. We started with a steamed artichoke, with was fine but definitely not worth $12. It came with a mayo sauce in the side that was underwhelming. Dinner was Grove Hill's chance to redeem itself - it fell flat. I had seared salmon with rice and beets, and a horseradish sauce on the side.
The salmon ($23) was fine, but the beets and rice were literally served below room temperature, and the flavors were just boring. I love horseradish, yet I found this oniony, watery version inedible.
My wife ordered the special, seared swordfish ($24) over a corn medley and a fruity sauce on the side. Again, the fish was fine, but she also considered the corn inedible. The sauce was very ordinary as well. After tip, dinner cost us $80, and the entire experience was negative. We will not be back - there are too many options in Chagrin Falls to give this place another chance.
