Went to GrillSmith for the first time on Veteran's Day. I was amazed by it. Most places are a simple sandwich or burger or dessert. Theirs were full menu and what a menu! Because of the crowds, they suggested we come around 7:30 PM or later. We arrived about 7:45 and only had about a 10-minute wait. They were very considerate and thoughtful to offer a dinner on Veteran's Day for those that have protected our country, often with their lives. I served 24 years with the Navy & Marine Corps and was proud of my service, including a tour in Vietnam. Thank you for all of our Veterans. And thanks for the Fallen Soldier table tribute. My wife ordered the Filet, Medium, with Green Beans and Mashed Potatoes. I chose the Filet, Medium Rare, with Green Beans and Mac & Cheese. After a short wait our food came. Our steaks were perfectly done and absolutely melt in the mouth tenderness. Sides were also delicious. A wonder meal and experience. This was our first visit to GrillSmith, but it most assuredly will not be our last. read more

I love this place. The food is awesome. The servers are sweet. The hostesses are welcoming. Unfortunately, there is a manager...a taller gentleman who is sort of rude. But I wouldn't let him ruin my long distance relationship with Grillsmith. Especially because the other manager who is just slightly shorter than him (he wore a dark floral shirt on Mother's Day) is very kind and caring. read more

Visited Grillsmith for happy hour and let me tell you this happy hour is Amazing! It also goes pretty late (til 7pm and all night Wednesday) so it's a great deal that's not gonna break the bank! Service was quick and good came out super fast also which I enjoyed! I loved the Thai shrimp and the eggrolls featured on the happy hour menu. It's a lite portion so if you are hungry def order more than 1 appetizer. The sangria was $7 and they filled the glass! I was so happy I was able to try the featured soup on the fall menu - Autumn Squash and Sausage! This soup was creamy and perfect for fall! I wish they weren't taking it off the menu so soon because this is one of my favorite fall soups I've tried! Going back today just to get that Autumn squash soup one last time before it's gone til next year. read more

We were celebrating a belated Valentine's Day dinner and chose Grillsmith since it was dog friendly on their outdoor dining area. Since it was Monday all three of us decided to order from the Mondays @ The Smith menu which included a starter, entree and dessert for each of us. It was hard to decide what to order since everything sounded delicious. For drinks we got a beer, Smith's Sangria and Strawberry Hibiscus Margarita. For starters we got the MONDAY PUB PRETZEL, MONDAY FILET TIP EGG ROLL and The Soup of the Day which was Baked Potato. The entrees we ordered were Center Cut Sirloin with Au Gratin potatoes and mixed vegetables, Chicken Milanese with Au Gratin potatoes, and Cajun Shrimp & Chicken Pasta. We also asked for a breadstick basket. For dessert we chose two CHOCOLATE DECADENCE Cakes and one KEY LIME PIE. Everything was delicious. I really loved the Chicken Milanese as it is so delicious, unique and full of flavor. The Potatoes Au Gratin are the best I have ever had. The Chicken Milanese is a large portion so I asked for a doggy bag. Speaking of Doggy bags...they do have a Doggy Menu too. Grilled Chicken and Rice, Diced Salmon and Rice, and Chopped Hamburger and Rice are the Doggy Menu Choices. Our Doggy had already eaten so we will have to plan to order her something when we come back next time. Dining in the outdoor dining area with our dog was very pleasant with the beautiful landscaping and heaters since it was a bit of a chilly night. read more

We went with a group of 6 on a Tuesday night. We all had something different and even asked for a couple of substitutions. Everything came out hot and as ordered, and at the same time. The food was delicious, and nicely presented. This is a reliable and fairly priced restaurant. The happy hour is good. Half price bottles in wine on Tuesday. I've been for lunch and dinner and it does not disappoint. It does get noisy at peak times, especially in the back room where the kitchen is located. So if you need a quiet chat, try for the front part of the place. read more

The food was delicious. Service is great. Monday day is the best. Be there for like 4:00 for the best service. He won't be disappointed right? read more

Solid choice, good service, good food. Tuna appetizer is plated very pretty but I'm not sure I'd consider it a shareable portion. Grillsmith burger was extremely good and I was happy they offered Muenster cheese. read more

While they messed up our reservation, they made up with with the delivery and taste of the food. Split a couple different entrees with family and none of it let down the hype of the place. All day happy hour on Wednesdays is an even better perk. Loved there dirty martinis as well. read more

Came here for book club. Great space! Service was awesome. We came for the brunch options. I ordered the Biscuits and Gravy. It comes with a buttermilk biscuit topped with sausage gravy. It comes with Parmesan herb tater tots, and a brunch side. The options for a brunch side were smoked Gouda grits, breakfast sausage, applewood smoked bacon, and Parmesan herb tater tots. I picked the applewood smoked bacon. Everything was delicious, hot, and fresh. I do wish they had a better variety of brunch sides especially since mine already came with the tater tots and the sausage gravy. Fruit would be an excellent option. Suggestion for the future. Also, the day we went the fountain machine was down. Getting a fountain drink was unfortunately not an option. read more

Another top-notch experience from start to finish.. Great staff, great food, and reasonably priced. Tough to beat! Thank you!

For being a grillhouse, highly disappointed that the steak with the wedge salad was so underseasoned! Super tough sirloin too. Our drinks were good. My friend said she would not order the tacos again. read more

Absolutely the most hospitable place I've ever been to. From the moment we were seated, the experience stood out. The host greeted us with a "happy anniversary," and there was even a handwritten card on the table signed by the staff--an incredibly thoughtful touch. The food came out quickly and was perfectly prepared. My wife and I mentioned we would split a single entrée, and without us asking, they plated it separately before it even reached the table. Dessert was just as impressive--delicious and beautifully done. What truly set this place apart, though, was the way the staff and management interacted with the guests around us, especially a couple of elderly couples nearby. The level of care, attention, and genuine hospitality was unmatched. This is, by far, the best-run restaurant I've ever experienced. read more

I had the chicken Milanese which was a great combo of flavors and that sauce so yummy!!! Our waiter was super nice and funny. The place has a pleasant atmosphere- dining with family or meeting friends - very versatile. read more

Dignity. On our annual dinner for Veterans Day, we love going to Grillsmith Countryside because they understand the mission. The staff are kind and professional and treats each patron with dignity -- especially us veterans who take over the restaurant on this special day. And the food is amazing and served hot. So I salute you Cory and your staff for honoring us. God bless you. And God bless our United States of America! read more

Had an absolutely delicious meal-- the salmon bruschetta is to die for. Probably the best bruschetta I've ever had. The steaks we ordered were cooked perfectly. The augratin potatoes are 100% worth upgrading to a premium side. The pineapple upside down cake we ordered to complete the meal had these insane candied peanuts that tasted like popcorn. Cannot wait to come back and probably order the exact same thing again. The service was great, atmosphere was great. The food all came out quickly, as well. read more

Been here a couple of times ... came here for lunch today and it was outstanding. Took my 90 year old uncle out for lunch ... he's very particular. He wanted light dressing so they ask 'want it on the side' , he said no, I like it tossed but just light dressing. Then he asked if they would chop the salad 'but not too much just lightly chopped'.... And also that the salmon not be over cooked. Our server was patient and friendly with the requests and it also came out perfect. I had the chicken Milanese and loved it. Someone else had the potato soup and loved it. Great atmosphere, upscale feel, clean, friendly service , reasonable prices. This place is really great ! read more

I like the ambiance and vibe but it is an older crowd. I ordered the port wine filet and au gratin potatoes. The potatoes 10/10 - so good. The steak was cooked really well and the wine sauce is delicious. I wish they had some more cocktails, I settled on wine. Really good place overall. read more

Our server was pleasant and accommodating. Drinks were great and the Chicken Feta entree yummy.

This is the second time we have been to this restaurant. First time was over 6 years ago and didn't like it but heard it on the radio and thought we would give it a second chance. Restaurant was ok. Dining room was clean. We sat outside not to deal with the 30 minute wait. We got a few apps that were good (not great but not bad) filet and blue cheese egg rolls, shrimp and crab cake (these were excellent) and chicken croquettes. Like I said apps were good. Entrees that may be another story. My wife got their special lamb chops and they couldn't be cooked right. First ordered them med rare, they came out med well. Asked for mash and they were out of them at 730 at night. When the first lamb came out they magically had mashed potatoes and the server didn't even notice that the side was different. Sent the lamb back and the next one came out RAW. it's like the grill cook was mad and just put marks on the chops. I got the cocoa cola ribs and they were decent. Tasted like they reduced some soda and added it to kc master piece bbq sauce. Got a side of jalapeño Mac n cheese. It had seasoning but I could tell they didn't cook out their roux could still taste the raw flour and they used a pre shredded cheese that I could feel the grittiness. After the second lamb came back raw we were basically done. They comped the lamb but still had to go somewhere else for the wife so the night was ruined. Might go back for lunch and get a salad or a burger but what's the point of going to a grill restaurant for a salad. read more

We had issues the last time we were there and I did provide feedback. However, this time it was fabulous. We had the crab cake appetizer and it was very very delicious. The Mediterranean Salmon was perfect. Everything was nice and hot when it got to the table including the artichokes and shrimp. We also had the oak barrel salmon and it was also very hot and cooked perfect. Thanks for making my birthday dinner perfect! The waiter did a great job too!! She was very good and friendly! read more

Love this place. Go every Friday for the crunchy ahi tuna. They always have the best seasonal drinks also. Highly recommend this restaurant.

This is a really pretty nice restaurant with a lot of business people having lunch there. It might be because the prices are fairly hefty, but the quality of the food is good. The seafood items were particularly delicious. There was a tendency for the server to keep on asking if we wanted more food and drinks when we were already quite full. The booths were very nice and comfortable and conducive to private conversation while eating. All in all it was a good experience. Parking was easy. read more

Good food choices. Could offer more vegetarian options. The service and ambiance are great

Ribs were crusty, vegetable medley soggy and greasy, mashed potatoes seemed boxed. The bread sticks were good. Under staffed. I won't know if they will improve, I'm not going back. read more

Fast, friendly service and delicious food at a great price! Check out the Monday 3 course specials..$23-$29, they can't be beat! Tip: Make a reservation, your wait will be less than walk-in customers. It's a small chain but has top notch servers and comfortable (although sometimes loud) seating. Tip #2: Ask to be seated in the 'closer's section. read more
