We are locals from Rockport and decided to dine at the Emerson's Grand Cafe since we haven't been there for a couple of years. I have to admit this was the best experience we had there and I credit this to their new Chef Daniel Martin. I'm rating this as one of the top fine dining restaurants on Cape Ann!... more

We ordered Chicken stuffed with blue cheese (can't remember the fancy name they gave it) .

There is a new menu and new food at The Grand Cafe. All I have to say is that everyone should try it. If you are looking for fine dining this is the place to good.

Great Food Hopeless Service The cuisine at the Grand Café located at the Emerson Inn in Rockport, MA is excellent. Last evening a party of 5 had excellent swordfish and haddock served on a bed of vegetables that were a perfect complement to the delicate fish. The fish tasted as it came from the sea. What a shame for such... more
