Our menu features upscale staples such as prime steaks and fresh seafood, as well as our iconic 12-layer Ultimate Coconut Cake – a nationally recognized dessert. Maintaining AAA Four Diamond and Forbes Four Star ratings for over two decades, Peninsula Grill remains a top choice for special occasions, romantic outings and unforgettable evenings in the Holy City.
