City Park Grill’s chefs, enlisting the aid of daily fresh shipments of seafood and a host of hand-crafted soups and sauces, assemble homey helpings of American comfort fare, served in an intimate dining room of exposed-brick walls and hardwood. The build-your-own Angus burgers democratize lunchtime with 17 beef-bolstering accoutrements, including a choice of bread, cheese, and toppings. Hamburger architects construct meaty edifices from toppings such as sautéed onions, bacon, teriyaki sauce, or barbecue sauce, all atop foundations of black bread, onion rolls, brioche, or multigrain bun. Each entree, like a birthday card from Julia Child, arrives with a side dish such as wild rice, garlic green beans, or sweet-potato shoestring fries.
Diners can oil rusty jaw hinges with starters of spinach-and-goat-cheese salad, or defer to the chef’s culinary muse with the soup of the day. Patrons can munch on hearty portions of pot roast situated atop garlic mashed potatoes or reel in the Lake Superior whitefish al forno, whose fresh fillet swims in a pool of parmesan cheese and garlic butter like an eccentric dairy baron. For dessert, the bread pudding pens epicurean epilogues across tongues with Kentucky-bourbon sauce and cinnamon ice cream as live lounge music wafts in the Friday-night background.

About City Park Grill
The concept of comfort food typically conjures up images of a family sitting at a kitchen table, passing around steaming casserole dishes filled with something cheesy, creamy, or meaty. But that's not the case at City Park Grill. Though chefs sling feel-good edibles such as meatloaf, roast chicken, and warm apple crisp, the food is plated on modern, rectangular wares and served in a dining room where black-and-white photographs stud an exposed brick wall. An old-fashioned ethos wins out in the kitchen, however, as chefs insist on preparing all soups, sauces, and desserts from scratch daily. Drinks from the full-service bar make the perfect complement to a day of game-watching on one of five big-screen TVs.
