Editorial Review for Grand Concourse – by Sam Edelmann

The Scene
The old P&LE Railroad station provides a stunning backdrop for this seafood house in the popular Station Square area of the South Side. The Grand Concourse's main dining room, which can accomodate 500 people, is in the old concourse, sporting large stained-glass windows and ceilings in excess of 80 feet. The Old Station Baggage Room, an informal space with a wooden plank floor, has been transformed into a lively bar called the Gandy Dancer.

The Food
The menu leans heavily on fresh fish, shrimp and crab. For dinner, try the seafood platter with fried fish, coconut shrimp and fried soft shell crab. But the delicious fish chowder isn't the only dish to keep this restaurant busy at all times of the day. Inexpensive pasta, entrees, copious breakfasts, and a large selection of desserts are all well-prepared and elegantly served.

Have not eaten there in a while, but when I did the brunch was great. To TerryGy, wait staff at any restaurant get paid 2.83 an hour before tips( and taxes). Maybe the restaurant should double there price for brunch and pay their servers 8 dollars and hour. Just a thought and I am not trying to be mean but someone has to compensate a server It either has to be added into the price of the entree or buffet or it has to come from tips. Who do you think sets up a buffut cleans up afterward etc... etc... I am by the way not a former employee or server.

Had an unbelievable great easter buffet. Server explained in detail where all the delicious food was located and recommended the bananas foster station as well as the donuts (which where made fresh in a donut machine!) Loved it and would recommend it! Had heard great things about the sunday Brunch and was blown away by prompt seating, food and service. Went ahead and booked for Mom's day. Love this place, there is nothing like it.
