I had not been to the Glenwillow Grille for about 2 years. My how things have changed. Five co-workers and myself, upon my recommendation, went to dinner there this evening. The waiter was over enthusiastic and tried to go out of his way to please us. This would have been a nice touch had the food lived up to the his hype. Unfortunately, the meals for half of us fell short.
When we ordered, some of us had salads, some had soup. There was no bread or crackers offered. When I questioned the waiter about this, his initial response was that no cracker really goes with bisque. I said it would have been nice had they at least offered either crackers or bread. His second response was that bread was usually only offered on weekends. Duh! This was a Wednesday. Sorry we didn't wait until the weekend. Not the best response to a diner.
Two of us had the Walleye. Not well seasoned. Totally flavorless. And the batter was so thick it could have made a meal by itself. It was very disappointing. One of the diners had the filet. He said it was way over seasoned. His suggestion was to cut the seasoning in half. I said they should have use some of the seasoning on the Walleye.
The other three diners were pleased with their meals, though they acknowledged it was just average. Overall, it was a disappointing evening. I felt as though the restaurant had let me down. After all, I recommended the place based upon my experience two years ago.
I would certainly not recommend this restaurant based upon this experience. There are better choices available in the area.
