Review Summary

Grille Nature is widely described as a west island standout that brings downtown quality dining to the neighborhood with a warm, welcoming space, attentive service, and a creative menu that combines bold, adventurous dishes with true classics. The food is repeatedly praised for freshness, ingenuity, and generous portions, and the drinks program and wine list get many compliments, while prices are noted as high for the area. Some reviewers note drawbacks such as occasional noise, pacing delays during busy evenings, and a few dishes that fall short or feel pricey for what is delivered, along with a couple of service or cleanliness hiccups. Overall this restaurant is felt to be a welcome, family-friendly yet refined destination with easy parking and a consistently strong dining experience, inspiring many to return to try more dishes.

Amazing dinner at Grillé Nature. Great restaurant with a fun vibe, delicious food & excellent service. We were a group of five & enjoyed sharing several dishes.

The fresh bread & butter to start was amazing. The Caesar salad was delicious. We loved the Lumache rose pasta . The honey butter rotisserie chicken with fries & salad was a standout, & the NY strip steak was perfectly cooked.

The fries were so good we ordered a second serving.

We finished with a chocolate sundae & sticky toffee pudding for dessert, both fantastic.

The only small note is that the seating could be a bit more comfortable, but it didn't take away from the experience.

Will definitely be back.

Local high quality ingredients with simple delicious recipes expertly prepared & didn't break the bank!
From the moment you walk in you're greeted with a warm smile & friendly banter. The service was EXCELLENT, she knew the menu inside out & we didn't feel pressured.. only supported.
It's a very chill local vibe inside & I can't wait to try the terrace in the summer!
You HAVE to get the Furley bread with churned butter, Hudson's finest really delivers.
The shrimp were the perfect starter & weren't overpowering.
The spicy margarita was strong & so yummy!
The scallops & bar steak were the perfect combo, & the value on the streak is crazy imo. There are some elevated options, but you can enjoy this restaurant without breaking the bank easily. Incredible addition to the West Island!

We had such a great experience here. The space is beautiful & the vibe is spot on. As soon as we gave our name, we were immediately wished a happy birthday - such a thoughtful touch that really set the tone for the night.

We started with cocktails (delicious) & shared a bunch of appetizers. The bread service was excellent, the hot avocado was a favourite, plus calamari & shrimp. We were also gifted a salad the kitchen is trying out that's not on the menu yet, & it was amazing. Some people at the table had the foie gras toast & it was unreal. We ordered a bit of everything & shared, & honestly, every dish was a hit.

The owner came over & helped us choose a bottle of wine, which was a great recommendation, & took the time to chat with us. The service felt very down to earth & natural - everyone was friendly, checked in on us, & it didn't matter who noticed if a plate was cleared or a wine glass needed topping up, it was just handled. We also loved how the food comes out on carts.

It was a birthday celebration, complete with lots of birthday wishes & a massive sundae for the kiddo at the table. The whole place felt warm, family-friendly, & like a true community spot.

The menu is also very reasonably priced, with great range - from burgers to Wagyu beef cheek. We'll definitely be back.

My only feedback: I strongly recommend they consider doing a wine club. It would be so well received, & I know I would sign up.

Really enjoyed our meal & the vibes at this new WI restaurant.
Staff were lovely & you can see all runs very well as the owners walk around. A nice atmosphere & the food was delicious.
I definitely would ask for another table next time however; did not enjoy the flashing neon ( Xmas ?) lights coming from the meat locker.
