Grossman’s Noshery & Bar -Food CA (Near Santa Rosa)

5 /5 Larry Canonica: I had a fantastic lunch here. I had the patty melt with pastrami and recommend it highly. It was very rich and greasy but I loved every bite. I also grabbed a couple of black and white cookies which I saved for later. These are a little different than others Ive had in the past but still excellent.

4 /5 Mandy Liao: Maybe it was because I got a chopped liver sandwich, but I couldn’t finish it lol my partner also got the pastrami sandwich but the bread wasn’t toasted and it was just your typical pastrami sandwich. Pretty pricey for sandwiches and no sides. The fries were really good though - thin and good crisp and seasoned. My cocktail was also yummy! They infuse their own vodka. Overall, I’d go for the drinks but not just for a casual lunch - was expensive for food that was nothing extraordinary.

4 /5 Steve: I visited at the tail end of what would be a mid-week lunch rush. Outside patio seating was pretty full but inside was nice, clean and calm. The waitstaff was on it and attentive, and the place had just a nice vibe. It helps that the location is pretty awesome as far as Santa Rosa’s “old” and/or “historical area” goes too. I thought I ordered the Reuben but ended up getting a plain pastrami sando (totally my error), but it was a happy accident as the pastrami has to be one of the top pastrami (for me) as far as flavor. Just something about the light smokiness of the meat that made it. I’ll have to try a Reuben next time. And as a sucker for coffee, I had the regular drip coffee they offered. Tasty stuff! Parking was plenty, location is solid, SMART station is within spitting distance….

3 /5 Lezlee Powers: I have been going to Grossmans since they opened, especially right before the winter Holidays. Yesterday I went to have lunch and unfortunately this was the second time the food was very mediocre And the Hostess was unfriendly unwelcoming since there was barely anyone in the restaurant. Thankfully the Bartender acknowledged us after standing in front for around 10 minutes while her and our eventual server stood around looking at us, I have to say All the other times there were very nice young people who treated us in a welcoming manner. The food has gone downhill unfortunately, but the children really love the chicken n fries on the children’s menu, the cocktails are delicious as well. I really hope that the last two times I’ve eaten here was just a fluke and they try harder to be better because the prices are not inexpensive and so you expect to have a good meal.
