What People Are Saying About Canyon Grille

In Short – Once you enter this towering, Southwestern-style building, you'll forget you're in the suburbs. Pale stone walls and vaulted cedar ceilings create an airy, open space. A favorite in winter for the large fireplaces and lodge-like feel, Canyon Grille also has a great patio for the summertime. The menu offers pastas and a few chicken dishes, but red meat and fish--smoke-infused and hot off the flames--are the reason to eat here. Desserts include enormous homemade brownies.

DOWNHILL FAST

I HAVE ATE AT CANYON GRILL 4-5 TIMES IN THE LAST FEW YEARS, MADE RESERVATIONS ON VALENTINES DAY, SERVICE WAS NON EXISTANT, WE WERE AT THE FIRST SEATING AT 4PM TOOK 20 MINUTES TO PUT IN A DRINK ORDER 30 MINUTTES TO BE ABLE TO ORDER APPETIZERS. THE FOOD WAS NOT GOOD THE QUAILITY OF THE CUTS OF MEAT ARE NOT TO THE STANDARDS THEY USED TO BE, MY WIFES FOOD WAS OVERCOOKED, AND THE SUPPOSED RED VELVET CAKE WHICH WAS REALLY A VERY DRY AND HARD CHOCOLATE CAKE WAS INEDIBLE. WROTE AN EMAIL TO THE MANAGER WITH HOW DISSAPOINTED WE WERE NO RESPONSE AT ALL. MUST BE CLOSE TO CLOSING THEIR DOORS SAVE YOUR MONEY, AND GO SOMEWHERE ELSE
- Pros: AMPLE PARKING
- Cons: BECAUSE NOBODY IS THERE

There are no crowds here!

If you like being treated like you're in line at the Department of Motor Vehicles, this is the restaurant for you. I have never left a restaurant without leaving a tip until tonight. Not only was the waitress rude, but when I mentioned it to the manager, he walked away without comment. It's too bad because the food was pretty good (if you like raw beef.) There are not many experiences that would inspire me to take the time to write a review, but this is the worst treatment I've ever received in any dining establishment.
- Pros: Quiet, not many customers
- Cons: undercooked prime rib, rude waitress, rude manager, overpriced

Fine Dining in Coon Rapids? Yes!!!
by stevekathg at Citysearch
One of our favorite places to go, and the only place in the northern suburbs where you can get incredibly creative dishes without paying through the nose. Service is always professional. Pace yourself because you want to leave room for dessert. The wine dinner events are not to be missed! A place where you can get to know the owners and chefs.
- Pros: Creative Menu, Great Staff, Great Wine List
The Details on Canyon Grille
When to Go:
Even though they seat until 10pm, the prime rib and better vegetables go fast. Get a table before 8pm or you may end up with a poor cut of meat with cooked carrots instead of green beans or asparagus.
