“ I came here awhile back for a lovely dinner. The service was terrific, and our server had many good recommendations. I love the backstory behind this restaurant; the inside is so cute! The food we got was exceptional, and it was priced very well. I will be returning here for sure. ”
“ Have been to the Gandy Dancer several times when in Ann Arbor. Will return again end of January - mostly because of two things. 1. Wonderful place (old station). 2. Wonderful food, diversity of options, wine list and very good service. Highly recommend. ”
“ Went for an early birthday dinner with my big sister. Pure nostalgia as we have had numerous significant events here over the years. She has lived in St. Louis for 30 years so it's been a minute for her. My last visit was for Sunday brunch pre pandemic. Still gorgeous here. Great service. Traditional fancy pants to the max. In all the best ways. Sadly no train during our visit. That would have made the visit perfection! We started with lobster bisque which was evilly rich and deeply satisfying. Complimentary bread and crackers with butter and salmon pate was appreciated too. Yum. As good as I remembered. For mains, I went for the Trio as I could not pick just one thing. The crab cake was a winner, the salmon is fantastic and the coconut shrimp was pretty good. The broccolini was oh so good but the rice was meh. My sister's scallop risotto was over the top droolicious. Perfect hit of sage and scallop perfection. My husband was in crab cake bliss. He liked the rice so take my opinion with a grain of salt. Overall it was amazing and I will be back. I love that I like it here as much as ai did in the 80s. Aging myself but not too many places you can say that about! ”
“ Amazing experience! We absolutely loved our dinner here the other night. Such a beautiful and historic building right on the train tracks. Service was exceptional and so was our food. I ordered salmon and it was probably one of the best I've ever had. The Martha's Vineyard salad, calamari and even the bread were all so delicious. I wish there were more restaurants like this. Can't wait to go back. ”
“ Thank you ROY for an EXCELLENT dining experience. I personally invite you to try their SMOKING DRaGON! Which has tequila and Mezcal along with dragon fruit. You'll thank me later. The ambiance is romantic old world with class and nostalgic touches. The outdoor front patio is lovely with plenty of seating and a small water fountain for Charm. The food was good and we will definitely comeback! Next time I will bring cash for valet, as it is complementary but you should tip, I swear we had no cash. The valet guys were very professional and polite! ”
“ Roy is an excellent waiter! He suggested his favorite, the DiNAMiTE Scallops and not they were dynamite! You must try for yourself! But you can thank me later wink We also tried the Martha's Vineyard salad and the Caesar salad. Wouldt recommend the MV salad it was not as I was expecting and my wife did not like either. The Caesar was good but too life lived the thick cut cheese but wouldn't get either again. The King Crab legs were really good thick soft and buttery! They bring out the butter on a bowl and they have a cake on the bottom to keep it hot. My wife had the iron skillet flank with blistered tomatoes (they should change the name to Fire Roasted) and the potatoes. It was nice. Something different for a change. My wife had a Smoking Dragon cocktail wi h was exquisite and she had 3. Highly recommended this place. ”
“ What a great experience we had! We had reservations for 8:00 pm which we achieved through Resy. Gandy Dancer hostess found our reservation just fine. We were a few minutes early so we got to visit the bar and encounter the gracious and expert bartenders. I did notice that one bartender- a lady - disposed of the wine bottles by breaking them in the bin. Not sure why that was but wow, a surprising noise each time. We also noticed that patrons clap when the train passes through. It's a thing at Gandy Dancer. Our table was ready right on time except it had a leaf folded up that kept landing in my husband's lap. The table was situated right in the entry traffic flow so we asked to be seated in a quieter area and, amazingly, they had a table in a lovely alcove that was perfect for our party of four. We had incredible escargot. I had scallops with asparagus. All around we stuck closer to surf more than turf and all had great entrees. We shared a dessert of carrot cake. The server was very attentive, the coursing of the food was timely. We had a wonderful evening. Next time I would use valet parking. :) ”
