Reviews for Restaurant Grinder in Montréal, QC
The decor and general ambiance of Grinder is really nice. Good music, vibrant crowd as expected. Our waiters were great too.... I’ll preface this with, I have gotten meat from Grinder’s butcher next door before and it’s always great and I highlyrecommend it. We ordered some appetizers and drinks which were good and then ordered the tomahawk and lobster combos. The meattasted a bit off, to the eye it looked like it was cooked well but it just didn’t taste good. As the different bussers andwaiters came back for quality check, we brought it up to their attention and nothing was done about it. We ate most of the otherfood but didn’t finish the steak. Long story short, more than $700 spent that night and our whole party got food poisoningafter that night. I called back a few days later to bring this up as a point of concern to the restaurant and a manager on thephone told me he’s never heard of this before and he would call me back…still waiting on that call. I live in the area anddecided to stop in a few days after that to talk to someone and spoke to a manager who basically told me someone on the night ofshould have done something…even after I told him no one did anything…and that was it. I would assume if a customer spent alot of money on dinner and didn’t have a good experience that they would at the very least get a call back when promised so.Disappointing. Read more
Really great steakhouse. We ordered the 40 oz tomahawk and 40 oz porterhouse steak. It’s more than enough between 6 dudes.... There is also a good selection of wine, but I’m no sommelier. It’s definitely a place to go if you’re visiting Montreal! Read more
Service very good, friendly staff. Price is very high for the portion, I had the filet. The potato’s were very good actually... but for $61+ a bit of a larger cut would be nice ???? Still of course funky place. Read more
I went to grinder on a Sunday evening. The vibe and environment was immaculate. The food was delicious and service was... excellent. It did take some time for the kitchen to bring out the food, I would say it did take an hour or more but we werehaving fun and drinking so it worked out. They have valet parking and lots of seating . I do recommend you make a reservation.The music is really loud but I loved it I think it made the atmosphere. It kind of had a supper club atmosphere which was great. Read more
Hanger steak and filet mignon were delicious. Lots of busy staff running around to keep your table cleared and glasses full.... Very cool ambiance. Love the outdoor/indoor vibes. Giant green wall full of plants makes you feel like you are eating outdoors. Read more
Grinder was one of the best experiences I’ve had at a steakhouse in a while. The atmosphere was fantastic, and the service was... incredibly quick and helpful. The waitress was very friendly and had great suggestions, as well as very accommodating. Wecelebrated a birthday and they provided us with our dessert on the house, which was super nice. Overall, I’d give Grinder avery very strong 5/5 and would highly recommend to visit. Read more
The service here is incredible; busboys ready to fill your glasses, take your dirty plates and clean up the table. They are very... fun and polite too. We had the tomahawk steak for 2. It doesn't look like much, but one slice is about 10 mouthfuls, and there'sabout 6 slices on that piece of meat. Plus you get to gnaw on the bone! And you get 2 sides, so come hungry if you choose thisdish! Read more
Food is delicious! Scallops were cooked to absolute perfection. Ramsey would have nothing bad to say about them lol Server was... polite and kind. Only annoying thing is the 15 min warning they give you to leave. You’re allowed 2 hours for the table. Atthe prices they’re charging, I just feel it’s tacky to be so stern on the time limit. Maybe give 2.5-3 hours if you musthave a timeline. Read more
