Review by Kailey Keebler

Dining at The Grill on the Alley was an experience to remember! 🌟

We kicked off our meal with warm, freshly baked bread and crispy calamari, which set the tone perfectly. For mains, I opted for the tender Flat Iron Steak cooked to a perfect medium rare, while my partner enjoyed the Australian Lamb Chops paired with decadent Lobster Mac-n-Cheese.

The atmosphere was cozy, ideal for a romantic evening. Paul, our server, was a gem; his humor and knowledge truly elevated our experience. Don’t skip dessert - the Japanese Cheesecake was light and heavenly! Can't wait to return! 🍰✨
