The Grill Room And Bar

We wanted to love this place but just could not. The hostess was nice and wished me happy birthday. Our dinner took 2.5 hours and we blame the waiter. Tables sat down and ate before we even got our food. They forgot my husband's fries. He would have preferred his steak over the fries and that is what he thought he was getting. The food was good but slightly over priced. We want to try the apps and may return for a visit at the bar.

I heard this place was one of the best in Portland, and it definitely lived up to the hype! Me and my boyfriend came here for my birthday and our server (Alanna) was courteous, funny, and had all the answers to our questions as well as great suggestions on what to order! The restaurant is well organized and from some tables you can see almost the whole kitchen, which I thought was super cool. I got the filet mignon with roasted mushrooms and potato aligot- it was divine. My boyfriend got the salmon and broccolini which he also enjoyed greatly. We finished with the blood orange sorbet which was perfect to round out the night. All in all, we loved our experience and if we lived in the area I'm sure we'd return for future special occasions!

Nice place but a priced a bit high. The food was great, but the entrees were expensive. Was the food good? Yes, but if I'm spending that amount I'd rather go to some other spots in Portland. The food was tasty and the server was new, but very helpful and willing to ask questions in the kitchen. The drinks were well made. No kids menu. They do not offer pasta or other options so I had to get my daughter a $30 burger.

If your looking for a GREAT steakhouse this is not it. If your tired of lobster and oyster and trying to eat some steaks that will cost you 150~200 then this place is for you. It is straight up mediocre, and I’m not trying to sound like a posh eater but for the price we paid, NOT WORTH IT. Our server was super nice which was not a surprise people in Maine are super friendly. The chef was yelling at the staff the whole time which made everyone tense. The ribeye was unevenly cooked and over seasoned. The sides came out cold (which is probably why the chef was yelling at everyone). With the waiting and the quality of food, do yourself a favor and go eat at the other great places that Portland has to offer.

Hungry for a good burger, how about a craft pizza, or maybe seafood, or a good steak? Rarely can you find a restaurant that can cover such a wide array of cuisines, but that is exactly what this urban eatery does. With a focus on quality ingredients including grass fed beef, and locally sourced organic produce, The Grill Room & Bar will surely have something for everyone. Want to try something out of the box but that utilizes a local favorite, how about their lobster pizza. This is a treat for any pizza or seafood lover. The pizza is expertly prepared in their incredible wood fire grill. The crust is crispy and charred, and the lobster is plentiful and fresh.
