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.

Ate here our first night in Montreal & it really set the bar high for the rest of the stay. The food was amazing, had the Short rib, hanger steak, green beans, Brussels, & a side of 3 scallops. The short rib came with a perfect slaw which tasted similar to Vietnamese dishes Ive had before. Only call out would be drop the green beans, they lacked seasoning, especially when compared to the Brussels (which were delicious). For dessert we had the bread pudding & it was the perfect non-fussy finish to a very rich meal.

The service was great, very attentive & would 100% go back if we had time.

The only downside was the table location, we were 10minutes late so maybe thats why, but seated in a spot that you couldn't see much of the rest of the restaurant, which sucks for people watching. Didn't dampen the actual meal through.

C'était vraiment bon! Belle ambiance à l'intérieur!

On était un gros groupe, donc certains d'entre nous avons pris le combo tomahawk en surf & turf à partager. Les petits à-côtés étaient délicieux : aligot, choux de Bruxelles, champignons.

Le service n'était pas des plus rapide; on commençait à avoir faim à un certain point lors de notre attente.

Expérience positive quand même.
