Reviews for Grain Food Lounge in Kitchener, ON
I would rate this place 6 stars if I could. The wait staff was super friendly And attentive from the moment we walked in to the... moment we left. Because the restaurant wasn?t busy we were able to choose our own table. The place has a great ambiance and isnice and quiet. It is a very comfortable restaurant which makes for a great location where you can actually hear your company. Ifound it was very reasonably priced averaging around 12$ for a plate. I ordered the thai vegan bowl which was delicious and awhiskey sour which had a cinnamon sugar rim and dried cranberries. I can?t wait to come back to try other dishes ! Read more
Excellent service. Very friendly staff. Lovely ambience. I had the pizza and it was delicious. Thin crust. There were four of... us at our table and we all were happy with our food. Prices are reasonable. We will definitely return soon. Read more
I've been here for both lunch and dinner now and have been super happy with the food and service both times. The Applewood... Smoked Grilled Cheese and the Alsatian pizza were both to die for, and prices are very reasonable. Also loving the redesign ofthe restaurant's layout and decor! ???? Read more
Been here a couple of times now and each time the food has been delicious. I love the fact their pizzas are thin crust, and... their southern chicken sandwich is seasoned perfectly, as well as their kettle chips. Great service all the time, and for a newrestaurant they?re doing something right! Read more
Would not return. The space is awkward and lacking. The service was subpar. The waitress could not for the life of her remember... who ordered what, despite not being busy. They were out of 2/5 beers we tried to order. No cocktail menu. They weren't evenairing the Leafs game - instead they had Animal Planet playing, which is a little strange. My food came out lukewarm. Theyrectified this by microwaving it and not offering any sort of apology. It was an extremely disappointing Mac 'n Cheese. I addedon the Double-Smoked Bacon for $4. It was regular breakfast bacon just thrown on top, a few pieces, certainly not $4worth. Others at our table had a better experience in terms of food, not great, but not bad, which is why I am giving this a2/5, not a 1/5. What was really disappointing is after our meal, we noticed another table receiving burgers and tacos, whichwasn't on the menu. We asked another server about this and he said it's up to each server what menu to offer. We had allstruggled to find something to order on the menu given to us, but likely would have ordered burgers and tacos if given theopportunity. Overall, it was a waste of money and time for me. I definitely will not return. The vibe of the place came acrossas entitled and unapologetic, which is certainly not deserving given the experience we had. Read more
I would have given this review a 4.5 except for the poor service at the end of the meal.... Went on a Monday night for dinner,... place was quiet but vibe was good, nice decor, quick service excellent food. Here is the weird part, waiter came by at the endof the meal to clear our dishes and immediately stated " I guess you won't have desert". Which is not true, we would have hadmore drinks, coffee and maybe desert as we were out to celebrate my wife's dinner. Before we could say anything he came backwith the bill. We were there for another hour and would have enjoyed some more drinks and desert but were ignored for the restof the evening. The restaurant was empty so it was not like they needed the table and it was only 7:30 so they weren't closing. Very odd for a place that seemed like it could do with more business on a Monday night. The other weird thing was that theycould not make change for $100 for a bill that came out to around $75. Odd that a restaurant does not have $25 in their floatat the cash register. Read more
Great atmosphere, and great food, despite not having everything we wanted due to being crushed opening weekend...food is in high... demand! Service-based incredibly courteous and attentive. If Vanessa is your server you are in great hands. Will be coming againvery soon. Read more
The food was really good. However, I?m not entirely sure what they were thinking when designing their seating arrangements. I... wouldn?t worry about making a reservation as there are generally a lot of available seats. One thing as a note to the owners,rework your seasonal drink menu. I shouldn?t see eggnog based drinks at the end of February. Read more
