"My son and I stopped in to grab a bite to eat. We both ordered different corned beef sandwiches. My son had ordered the larger sandwich, which was priced the same as what I had ordered. When they arrived, I was actually a bit shocked to see the size difference between the two. My sandwich only had a few slices of meat versus the absolutely mound on his. I wouldn't have cared much, except were the exact same price with no additional items for the smaller one to compensate. Had we not ordered the same thing I would likely had not noticed or even said anything, but the side by side comparison was hard to notice. The only other issue was the sheer amount of oil(butter? that was in the sandwich was so overwhelming it was hard to eat. After it started getting a little cold, it was unappealing. I spoke to the waitress, who asked the manager to come over regarding the issue. I wasn't upset, but genuinely curious as to how the restaurant could charge the same for these two hugely disproportionate items. I wanted them to be able to see the sandwich size difference, since a visual reference helped. From our seat, I could see the manager's reaction to the waitresses comments. The manager went back to the bar and finished her conversation with the people at the bar, cleaned up and after about 10 minutes came over to resolve the issue. The manager explained that while his order should have had double the size, it shouldn't have been this big of a difference. She removed one sandwich from the bill and did provide a gift certificate for future use, but this wasn't really what I was looking for. She didn't address the question, which is how the restaurant justifies charging the same amount for two different amounts of food? This was just sort of shrugged off. Whether it's double or triple the size, that's a huge difference that someone setting the two meals side by side will question. Maybe it wasn't originally supposed to be that way, and someone who doesn't know the food served or the restaurant created this menu and price. I will use the gift card provided to visit them in the future and see if they have resolved these small issues."

"This is a tough review to do but its an Honest one.Grand Lux Cafe is all glitz and glamour but is it really? And does the food stack up?Sadly its not and the cooks are not very great. (I explain why)So we started off with the Grand Calimari which unfortunately had barely any Calimari or Zuchinni as mentioned and mostly had shrimp and fried onions. It ended up just being a bowl of crispie flour pieces at the end. The dipping sauces were great and portion size was good but its disappointing to not have many Calimari in a dish thats named Grand Calimari. Still not terrible as it tasted great..The service was also good. I forgot the young mans name but he had dreads and was on the slim side. He was great.But now the bad:I ordered the Beef Wellington which is a pretty big platter but is in no way an authentic Beef Wellington. More like a tiny puff pastry placed on a piece of filet mignon that looked like a kabob. Massive disappointment. Whats worse, I asked for my filet mignon to be Medium. It came charred on the outside and raw on the inside. Horrible. All the pieces were inconsistent too.I returned this and opted for a grilled chicken avocado salad. Huge salad full of lettuce and some sweet vinegrette but barely any chicken. Barely! And it was not grilled chicken. Was cold plain chicken. Horrible and for $16.My brother got a garlic shrimp scampi type pasta. It was a huge serving but... not enough Shrimp! How disappointing. Just a ton of angel hair pasta with cheese and garlic sauce. It was really tasty but cmon .. needs more shrimp!My mom got the Salmon Picatta which was nice despite being very bland. She had to ask for hot sauce..The molten chocolate cake aka lava cake was the best part of the meal.I left Grand Lux disappointed. Its a beautiful place for sure. Def the ambiance in alot of the dining areas fits the name.. but the food is not great and they are stingy with some of the protein.I initially told myself I wouldnt go back but I might give them another chance for redemption.P.s. If they seat you in a booth with a sofa back, that sofa back is dirty and full of stains. I shoulda took a pic!"
