3. Granite City Food & Brewery

While it advertising itself as a brewpub, it is actually a corporate restaurant a step above Applebee's. It doesn't actually brew beer on the premise but rather "finishes" it. It has pretentions of being an upscale restaurant, but the turn over in staff, stock menu, and general lack of food knowledge of wait staff does not allow me to rate higher than 3 star. Having said that I enjoy the bar and the food for a casual meal.
