I am nee to working in this area and so far ihave had the Cuban sandwich and it was fantastic, I have had a pizza and it was 5 star comfort food and today I had the Korean chicken bowl with black rice and kimchi, and it was divine!!!
I've been going to Grounded since the first week it opened several years ago. I liked it then, still like it now, thanks to the constant evolution building from that solid base of great location, great staff, great menu and great wine list.
Great place for food and drinks. Not too busy, but it has a nice location. Staff are kind and attentive. Good portions with food sizes. Lighting and décor are modern and uplifting. Veggy options. Cheap to more moderately priced selections. Top 40 pop music, but still a good atmosphere. Recommended!
A late review from the summer, but here it is! Grounded Kitchen is a great spot to come with coworkers in the downtown core, but also great for dinner with friends! The drinks were delicious, especially the espresso martini. We enjoyed the BBQ plate and the special of the day, which was a catfish. The BBQ plate standouts were the ribs and beans!
Very unique spot. They have some creative dishes and I would definitely like to return to try them all. When I was there, I had the Cajun fish and one of their specialty cocktails. Likely good for dates, casual or even business lunches!
Went in today for take out coffees. The girls working were so friendly and helpful . Delicious espresso 😋. Made my day!
Glad they stayed open during the freedom convoy. Will definitely come again.
This small restaurant is a combination coffee shop, BBQ joint, and bar. The food is good, if priced a bit high. The staff is super friendly and welcoming too. Unfortunately we informed them about peanut allergies at our table before ordering, but there were actual peanuts in some of our food. No one died so that was good.
Food was delicious, drink service was a bit slow. Really cool decor and friendly staff! Definitely recommend it for BBQ cravings 😋
With restaurants getting slammed by COVID and the resulting lockdowns I decided to go out support a local restaurant today.
I’d never been to Grounded Kitchen but read great reviews and I can say without hesitation the food and service is amazing! I tried multiple plates such as the Colombo Curry, Beef Stew, and smoked cheddar and chive perogies - all excellent dishes. Add chicken to the Columbo Curry for additional texture and flavour. Also, their Sour IPA is fantastic paired with dessert.
I’d definitely go back again!
