I recently had an opportunity to dine twice at GMG. The staff and my barman were outstanding. TonyG was fabulous. The food: meh to sad. I ordered fish & chips the first night. The fish was under seasoned, undercooked, tough and bland & the accompanying salad was soggy...twice. I did get two, sliced lengthwise in half fancy carrots that were tasty on the do-over dish. The bartender had insisted on a do-over. Bless his heart. Then he insisted on comping the dish. We bartered for another glass of wine and then insisted on a taste of a very nice sorbet.
But let s talk about the $29 breakfast buffet. It s embarrassing. The eggs were tasteless, too-long-in-the-chafer and clearly from a large food service plastic bag; the French toast was inedible; the hash browns were ok; the bacon was perfect; the oatmeal was nice but gummy and the fruit was fresh. $29? I think not. The hotel front desk staff at The Pines was completely uninterested.
This is not the Grouse Mountain Grille of years past. Sad. Disappointing.
