Grant Avenue Bar and Grill at the Golden Egg

The Grant Ave. Bar & Grill is the evening face of the much-​beloved Golden Egg on Grant Avenue at Reichart in Novato.
The food is good, but I can make better at home. Food is generously portioned and the menu consists of typical American favorites (pork chops, chicken, steak, pasta, salads). All the selections are ably prepared and presented in a clean, understated fashion.
This is a place to go for a «good neighborhood meal,» and it really can’t compete with Kitchen or even Finnegan’s in terms of quality. The kitchen staff is accommodating, however, and will graciously accept special requests («please put two onion rings on my hamburger»).
There’s a small patio in the back and a nice atrium-​style area inside. The staff is usually professional and attentive, but I’ve been left alone for a distressing length of time on Farmers Market nights (Tuesdays in the summer).
Just as with its daytime alter-​ego, the Golden Egg, the facilities and accommodating staff make this a good choice for families.
