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 were having 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.

really nice place but the busboy really ruined the night!! we ordered a whole tomahawk but had a lot of drinks before and just wanted to take it to go only a piece of the steak was eaten . the whole thing barley untouched and he packaged it all into one small container ! threw the whole bone marrow away without asking agyer we paid the bill. the main thing we were excited to eat after at home …. he threw the salad on top of the steak and mashed potatoes and really just had a rude attitude! i really liked the waitress and the drinks and food i had eaten but after spending 300$ for a hour and a half service that was pretty slow with drinks ( no complaints still happy) and getting my whole meal given back like this!! i was really upset … please educate your busboys how to package leftovers or else just bring packaging to customers so we can do ourselves !!!

Nourriture excellente! Avec une serveuse super sympathique *Emma*

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's about 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 this dish!

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. We celebrated a birthday and they provided us with our dessert on the house, which was super nice.Overall, I’d give Grinder a very very strong 5/5 and would highly recommend to visit.

Super service! ? Le gérant est vraiment sympathique, l'ambiance est écoeurante et la bouffe est décadente ! Superbe découverte ! ?

Service impeccable! Serveuse et gérant accueillant et souriant, un détour à faire c clair ❤️

Meat is very goodHalf chicken is great tooThe pudding is amazing must try

We heard good things about this place. So we arrived with high expectations and they didn't disappoint. Everything from the appetizers to the dessert were delicious.The ambiance was very nice. There were music and it wasn't too loud. We were seated in the indoor terrace and I loved the decor.For the appetizers we got the beef tartare, the foie gras and French onion soup. Wow, such a good way to start the evening. The beef tartare is one of the best I ever ate. It was so fresh and had the right amount of pickles and herbs. The foie gras, was also delicious and they gave a generous portion too! It's like a 2 portions. The French onion soup was what grabbed everyone's attention when it arrived. The fragrance was to die for and so was the taste.For the main, we had the porterhouse and tomohawk. We also got four sides. We had the mash potatoes, the sweet potato fries, mushrooms and broccolini. We were four and after the appetizers, we could barely finish it. The meat was cooked to perfection and very well seasoned. It was so tender too. The four different sauces offered gave a variety to the taste. All the sides were to die for especially the sweet potato fries and mushrooms.Finally, we could only have one dessert to share. We had the lemon tart. There are are a marshmallow layer, followed by a lemon curd and crumbles with a passion fruit coulis. It was tart! But so good. A perfect way to finish the night.Thank you, we definitely enjoyed ourselves and will be back!

The food was pretty good, although quite pricey. Very loud music for a restaurant of this price range. And I agree with some previous reviews that it doesn't do the best job in dealing with COVID.
