Gushing Over Greystone
Greystone has stolen my heart and become the best steakhouse I’ve ever had the pleasure of dining at. Yes, that is quite a bold statement I know, but the high touch service, menu selection, ambiance, and damn good food allow for me to say so. As a man who enjoys his whiskey I opted for an Old Fashionioned to start the evening off. Out comes this beautiful closed crystal glass with Maker’s 46 smoked inside and glass with the most perfectly cubed ice. As the Maker’s hit the ice you can begin to smell it really open up and the first sip was magnificent.
