    Raspberry Lemondrop!
    Nancy H.

    Amazing food, drinks and service! So many items on the menu it was hard to choose! I ended up trying a pepper sausage flatbread that was outstanding. My cocktail of the day was a potent raspberry lemon drop.

    Thursday special 1lb of baby backs with sweet potato chips

    You gotta love a place that just does it right... Since moving to Beaver county 4 months ago I have been surrounded by pizza joints and bar & grilles serving pub grub, pizza and wings, and that's fine, but sometimes you just want good home cooked style meals and i finally found it here at the Grand Valley Inn. I have driven by a few dozen times now and have always noticed a very full parking lot whenever they were open. Now I know why. My family and I stopped for dinner and quickly settled into a booth among lots of locals filling up the dining room next to the bar. The place was busy and most all tables were full, even the side dining room that seemed to be hosting some sort of game night as well. after a few short minutes we ordered and then were blessed with a basket of the world's best and freshest dinner rolls. To say they were pillow soft would do them an injustice. I also ordered the spinach artichoke dip with fry bread chips as well as deep fried mozzarella sticks for my son. The dip was fantastic and the frybread was the perfect vehicle to get it from the bowl to my mouth. Mozzarella sticks were just o.k, nothing special but a solid appetizer. My wife ordered the chicken picatta which she loved and I went with the weekly special of Danish baby back bbq ribs with waffle cut sweet potato fries. The ribs were amazing, so tender and yes fall off the bone delicious. The fries were perfect as well. Overall the service was good even with a very busy dining room. The food was very good, everything was home cooked from scratch and the prices were very good for what you got, especially the daily special prices, Aloha

    Food was excellent. Atmosphere was a little crowed though. The food is good enough to deal with the lack of parking and very loud interior. Cons: Parking and so loud it's hard to talk to whomever your with. Pros: Food Food Food. Delicious

    A packed dining room on a Saturday evening
    Darren W.

    Note #1: Reservations are recommended. Note #2: The dress code is somewhere between casual and formal. Wear a nice pair of jeans and a good shirt or sweater, and you should fit in. Grand is an apt descriptor for this venerable steakhouse that boasts hotel rooms for weary travelers (no kidding!). There are worse places to be stranded than in humble Fallston, PA, and with quality restaurants such as GVI, Brady's Run Grille, and Cove Diner nearby, you may want to stay an extra day or two. I had received a Just Buy Half gift card as a birthday present from my mother which research revealed was accepted by GVI along with many other restaurants and businesses. Kay had always been standoffish about GVI due to its prices, but with a 50 buck head start, she caved in and took us out here this past Saturday evening, running errands and visiting her parents along the way. Grand Valley Inn resembles a suburban home, and the interiors themselves, ornamented with vintage farm tools like saws and foreboding scythes, might as well be a relative's dining room. Sunday dinner is recalled. I almost thought I heard someone ask me or someone else to "pass the salt" or what have you. The Waltons would feel at ease in what would surely be the finest dining to the fictional clan. *If a feeling of deja-vu takes hold of you while perusing this piece, you're not alone. Chase this review with the one I wrote of Downtown Pittsburgh's Grille On Seventh, the urban cousin GVI never knew it had. The pageant began with Almond Crusted Goat Cheese that came with pita chips and a small serving of sublime sweet/sour strawberry viniagrette-dressed greens. Fluffy, tart, nutty, and crunchy are words that are invoked when I think back to spreading this warm and warmly admirable stand-in for brie or whipped butter over the hard triangles of pita. As with many a great started, we wanted more. What may have been the zenith of steaks was brought to my table afterwards. The Filet Oscar features two petite cuts of filet mignon that are topped with lump crabmeat, asparagus, and a bear of a bearnaise sauce. The filets, cooked medium rare (the only way to order burgers or steak anymore), were erotically pink inside, oozed blood and juice profusely when lacerated, and offered no resistance to my canines whatsoever. Never before have I had the pleasure of indulging on such a tender steak. The chunks of sweet crustacean collied with the lightly bitter asparagus rods, the bearnaise sauce was as creamed and flavor-packed as its mother, the hallowed hollandaise. As supreme as this entree was, all that was missing was a poached egg, but that perhaps would have been overly decadent. Flanking my slabs of bloody, juicy protein was the perfect side to a perfect duo of steaks: a perfect baked potato. Leathery-skinned and feathery on the inside, I applied sour cream to the split, buttered, fuming spud generously, sliced it apart, and partook between bites of beef and crab with utmost pleasure. I was reminded of why french fries are simply too base a side for such an exquisite steak. No, a baked potato must do, but it must be as ideal as this. Also had in the middle of this feast as a cup of Stuffed Pepper Soup. A cross between chili and a tomato soup, tender grains of rice and ground beef played off of the gravy-thick, tangy, crimson broth. It may be cliche to state this, but cold, winter evenings were seemingly invented to make soups such as these as gratifying and comforting as they are. Nothing else would have satisfied my sweet, after-supper cravings like the unassumingly-named Flourless Fudge Cake did. A fiendish wedge of shaved nut-riddled chocolate, fresh whipped cream was thankfully piped about the plate to temper the pastry's richness. This was PURE fudge, a candy bar served like a pie, and it was not for those with heart conditions or diabetes. It would put both Wilford Brimley and Bret Michaels into shock with one taste. And if that reads like praise, it is. Our server Dan was joy to be waited on by and watch in action as he nimbly worked a busy, packed room with preternatural skill, professionalism, and personality. Grand Valley Inn is not one for the trend-chasers; it is for those who love tradition. Label me an old-fogie if you must for this meal will go down as one of the grandest of all my days. Venture to Fallston and brush up on the standards that built upscale American cuisine as we know it. "It's class that counts, and it's written all over me."-Buddy Rogers

    Service was great but the food only mediocre. I had the fish special, deep fried cod, and it tasted fishy and soggy. The drinks were weak.

    Came here with the family to enjoy a good meal and good company. We always like coming to Frank…read moreG's. Nice atmosphere, good food and service! We ordered the crab cakes from the regular menu and the chicken bruschetta Mac and cheese offered as one of their "specials". The crab cakes were delicious! The Mac and cheese wasn't quite what my husband expected based on how our server described the dish. It would be nice if they included an insert in the menu for the specials providing a better description of the dishes so you have a better idea of what to expect. My husband's dish did not have any bruschetta sprinkled on top, only one lonely piece of tomato. While it was good it was not as it was described by our server so it was a little disappointing. All in all it was a nice evening at Frank G's!

    **Update to previous review of Frank G's**…read more What was originally a review that called out details is now one that calls out the owner and/ or management. The meal that was originally reviewed was on the occasion of my daughter's graduation that evening. It is for that reason that I did not address my concerns with management at that time. Again, there were great things about the meal, but the details made it a less than enjoyable experience, especially at a place that presents as delivering an elevated dining experience. My call- out is this; there seem only two reasons why they would not respond in some fashion to a negative Yelp review and at least offer an explanation or apology. The first would be that they are oblivious to the impact that social media can have on a business and they just don't attend to it. The second would be that they are aware, but just don't care enough or feel that they are above addressing concerns. Either way, it doesn't bode well for a business operating in the age of social. Let me be clear, it's not about getting a comped meal or a free dessert...I would not return anyway.
