Review Summary

Restaurant Grinder is frequently praised for its exceptional food, particularly the high-quality steaks, surf and turf platters, and popular sides like the pudding chômeur. Many guests highlight the vibrant, moody atmosphere and the professional, attentive service provided by the staff, which often makes for a memorable dining experience. While the majority of visitors have a fantastic time and look forward to returning, some patrons note that the restaurant can be quite noisy and that table spacing may feel cramped during busy periods. Occasional inconsistencies in service speed and food preparation have been mentioned, but management is noted for being responsive to feedback and dedicated to ensuring guest satisfaction.

Bouffe très correcte, mais service très moyen. Assis au bar, directement devant ma serveuse/barmaid. J'ai passé la soirée à faire scuze moi, scuze moi pour demander pour un autre verre, commander mes plats etc. Elle avait ben du fun à boire des shots & du vin avec des amis au bar par contre. Je m'excuse de déranger, à 150$ pour mon souper... Typique griffintown. Hype 10/10, qualité du service, on repasse.... Faites vous plaisir, le foxy est juste à côté. Qualité assurée! ☺?

Restaurant sur évaluée , le filets mignon avais une belle cuisson mes aucun sauce à part , à part une genre de bouillon dans le fond du plat . Le service plutôt moyen & désorganisé , je peux dire que je retournerai pas à ce restaurant. Je vais à plusieurs restaurant & j'aurais pu me payer 2 souper pour le même prix. Le couronnement par dessus ça y te pousse à dégager tu sens la pression.

Très bonne nourriture, mais le service était désorganisé. Les plats sont arrivés avec un certain délai d'attente entre eux, nous avons dû attendre un bon moment pour avoir des couteaux à steak & une erreur a été faite sur notre commande. Je crois que le fait d'avoir divers serveurs qui s'occupent d'une même table apporte une confusion & une certaine désorganisation. Cela dit, ils se sont rattrapés & l'expérience demeure bien positive.

Service de voiturier bien apprécié vu la difficulté de s'y stationner.
