Changes at Grill 164

New Website is Coming!

As we continue to make positive changes here at Grill 164, we want to be sure that we make our clients experience as great as it always has been.

One of the ways we decided to improve was to redo our website. We have hired a local marketing company, Paragon Marketing Group to build us a more modern, easy to navigate, and technology friendly site. Our new site will feature our entire menu, specials, history and more so people can get a true feeling about Grill 164. Our hope is that you will use our site and share it with your friends. Should you have any suggestions or would like to give us feedback, feel free to drop us a line or stop in to say hi! We’d love to see you!
