The experience was overall very nice! The layout of the lobby with all the glitz and glam was gorgeous . I had a slight mishap with one of the dining room chairs that had the seat spring let go and cut my ankle in the middle of our meal. The staff was apologetic, offered a bandaid, and got me a new chair! Would definitely eat here again but might wear some full coverage shoes next time.
Stayed 2 nights and completely impressed. Enjoyed having breakfast, so much that we went the next day as well. Kudos to our waitress Melanie for being cheerful, pleasant and very attentive.
We were greeted with a very friendly smile. Seated and drink order taken right away. Waitress came back to our table several times asking if we needed anything. The meal was delicious, steaks were a little under cooked but still yummy. Our request to make the herbed potato wedges on the crispy side was granted. The chef's cinnamon walnut cheese cake was delightful! When our waitress came to our table with the final bill we were surprised as she informed us that the cheesecake was on the house. The waitress had asked us prior if we were eating there for a special occasion... it was our Anniversary. Thank you Ellena for making our evening extra special!
Could have been a one off extremely disappointing for the price. Ordered medium to medium rare and got blue rare. Couldn’t chew through the steak. Risotto was crunchy. Bernais was cold, asked if it could be warmed up and it came back separated and inedible. Partner ordered medium rare she got blue rare. Both of us were so hungry as we were saving up all day for this very expensive meal and we’re just so disappointed. Server was great but I would strongly caution eating here as our bill was almost $300 and we left hungry.
I was rather disappointed with our overall experience dining here. The appeal of this place was a large reason why we chose Moose Jaw for our weekend getaway. We had ordered some appetizers, among them lamb chops (medium rare). They arrived essentially completely raw. The server was not particularly attentive so it took a while to rectify. They offered to re fire them and they did eventually come back cooked correctly but unfortunately they lacked any salt and therefore flavor. $22 for 2 raw unseasoned baby chops seems excessive & no concessions were offered. This may have felt more acceptable would they have been dealing with a full house but we were one of 2 tables while they had 2 servers. The next morning we decided to try breakfast. I ordered the classic breakfast and received burnt bacon & eggs that were maybe half cooked. In their defence I did not notify the server about this as I became frustrated at this point, that's on me. While we had some dishes that were quite pleasing, the lack of consistency or care at the pass really needs to be addressed. There is no excuse for a fine dining establishment to send out raw meat and eggs. Had either the food been as advertised, or concessions been made by the server after realizing a mistake occurred, this would have easily been a 5 star review. I don't mean to deter any guests from eating here! I think they have fantastic potential, I just hope this feedback helps them improve!
While staying at the Grant Hall Hotel, we came here for breakfast twice. Both times, it was incredibly delicious. The items were fresh and light, but savory and filling for a healthy breakfast. It was surprisingly affordable, and we did not have to wait very long for our food. The staff were very polite, but we did have to fill up our own water glasses a couple of times because we could not see or find our server. The design of the dining room matched the aesthetic of the rest of the hotel perfectly, and it felt like we were eating in a luxury establishment. We will definitely eat here again.
Took my granddaughter out for her first fine dining experience. It was fantastic, definitely something we plan on doing every year. From the first sitting to the dessert and every thing in between was exceptional.
We were seated for dinner after a Prairie Bee Mead tasting. Everything we chose from the menu was great and we had no complaints. Our server could do with a little training on her initial approach to a greet a table of customers. Please remind your staff to greet their customers and to introduce themselves. The first words out of their mouths when they approach a table shouldn’t be them asking if we’d like to order a drink. We never did find out her name and it felt as though we were served by a nameless person. It felt a little weird for sure. I guess we’re accustomed to knowing our servers by a name. She may be new because she fumbled a bit clearing the used dishes after the appetizer, dropping some onion pieces on the floor. She also cleared both my forks … although only one was on my appetizer plate that she cleared. She made a point of also taking the clean fork to the left of my place setting that I would have used for my entree. She left the knife :). It’s all good and perhaps it was an off night for her. On the bright side I was glad that you didn’t have a staff shortage… and every server has to start somewhere!
It was the first time I had eaten dinner at Grant Hall. It was very good. The atmosphere was elegant and the food delicious.
What a wonderful dining experience! The breakfast was perfect and our server Melanie was fantastic! Dietary restrictions: Pretty good selection of gluten free items Wheelchair accessibility: Elevator
NIRMAL was THE BEST young man, best waiter.. most hospitable . Luv luv luv the supper. Fine dining .. exquisite. Will definitely be back. Thank you NIRMAL.,
We had a wonderful dinner and Nirmal was an amazing server!
Steak was cooked perfectly, our server Nirmal did a great job, live music was really good. I would come back.
Delicious food and wonderful service. Joan was friendly and polite. We come every year for our anniversary and have never been disappointed. Would recommend 100% to anyone and everyone!
Amazing time being served by Joan! Thank you Grant Hall!
Excellent experience. Brandi our server was amazing.
We thoroughly enjoyed our experience at Grant Hall. Steaks were delicious,and Nirmal was an excellent , attentive server ! We will definitely be back ! An added bonus was the singer who added to the whole evening!
We were warmly greeted upon arrival. Our server Melanie in the dining area was very polite and attentive. The rooms were very clean and beds comfy. Would definitely recommend this hotel for both sleeping and dining experiences. Parking: Well lit up area and security monitored
Top notch across the board.
A most relaxing atmosphere, my lunch was delicious: summer salad with shrimp, a side of fries and a glass of wine. Chloe, my waitress, so very personable and sweet. I will definitely be back.
Absolutely wonderful!
While the building was beautiful, the dining room looked only half set up for the dinner crowd. For a supposed fine dining restaurant it lacked atmosphere. The food was mediocre especially for the price. The servers werent quick to remove our plates once we were done and it wasnt super busy. Wouldnt go back. Food
Ham in the eggs Benedict was very tough. Fish and Chips. Batter on the fish extremely greasy. Could not eat it. Fish had not been seasoned. Very disappointing for 22.00 A positive note summer salad was excellent. I had it twice during my stay
Bar manager was over the top, very enjoyable with our friends and a gm 7.
Quiet little spot to enjoy a great meal.
Took my husband here for his birthday! His meal as ok, mine however was not! I ordered the Trout, roasted vegetables, roasted sweet potato s. The trout was way undercooked, in fact the thicker part was RAW! The waitress was sweet, took it back and my husband refrained from eating his meal, feeling bad for me and not wanting us to eat alone. This meant his was now cold by the time they brought mine again. Roasted vegetables consisted of one vegetable and the sweet potatoes 2 slices, had burnt on the edges! This was a BIG disappointment! But they did give me a whole $6.50 off the $140. bill for two!
Best lunch meal I ve had in a very long time. The chicken sandwich was elevated & had such a burst of flavours. A side of winter salad was generous, perfectly mixed dressing throughout with pecans, feta & dried fruit. Yum! Our server was excellent! Beautiful chandeliers, elegant surrounding with cloth tablecloths & napkins. Loved everything about the experience.
Firsty, the building is very beautiful and very old. Yes, it looks stunning but the bathrooms and private dining room we had were very cold, as we were here in the winter months. I suppose it would be difficult to heat a building like this, but it does make the experience uncomfortable. The menu is... limited to say the least. Not to say the food isnt good, because it is, but considering the limited items for non-meat eaters (not me) and the price points... its hard to recommend. Ive been to places that are of a similar pricing proposition with much more modern menus and variety with massive portions. If I take into consideration the food quality vs. Price, i dont think Id be back. This could all be ameliorated by a level of service to match the silly prices. However, our waitress was snippy, argumentative and was unable to handle serving such a large group alone. Thats a staffing issue, either assign additional help to a large party or give them a waitress that isnt flatly rude and argumentative. The fact that you force a gratuity on top of high prices and poor service is a joke. Not for me.
Expensive
Great food and service! Recommended!
Presentation of the meal was unsatisfactory. Ordered steak. Only came with fries. Too expensive for what you got
Delicious food and superb service, light jazz playing was a nice touch!
Wonderful atmosphere. The food was delicious. The servers are attentive. A wonderful experience. Highly recommend!
Beautiful decor and dining. Had a great meal and friendly professional service. Enjoyed.
Disappointing meal. I took my wife, daughter and granddaughter there for Mother s Day. Although the staff was great and the building is beautiful, the food was below par. Eggs Benedict was so tough we couldn t cut thru it, sausage tasted spoiled, other entries were cold and not replenished in a timely manner. Returned to the buffet a few times and no difference. Dessert looked and tasted like it all came from a large grocery chain (not going to name names). So a pricy and disappointing meal.
What a delightful place to have dinner or a birthday celebration.
We had breakfast one morning and after dinner dessert in the evening. A very relaxing place. I would definitely go back on our next trip.
Wonderful time.
Very impressed with Grant Hotel and their accommodation of our small event. Communication ahead of time was great, prompt replies and they were very patient with us. They accommodated a private room for us on short notice. The server was fantastic (short red hair) and food was delicious. We highly recommended the Grant Hotel.
Shirley in Events is amazing, clean, comfortable rooms and great staff
The setting was lovely and the food was excellent. I had the shrimp and lobster pasta and it was great. We were 11 people and everyone enjoyed their food. The rib eye steak was a particular favourite. But it was our server, Ellena, who really made the evening for us. Thank you, Ellena and Grant Hall!
wonderful place and great food and service
This is a great place to celebrate a special occasion. Great service. Great food. The menu is vey small but everything on it is executed with excellence. Bring your wallet though this place is not going to be cheap. This is THE ONLY place to get lamb in MJ and it s wonderful.
Great atmosphere, service & food.
Phenomenal appetizers, drinks and main dishes
Had dinner in the lounge from the lounge menu. Very good food and the service outstanding. We shared the calamari, crab cakes, side winter salad and dry-rub wings. It was plenty of food and all of it very tasty.
Bought a $50.00 burnt stake.
It was amazing. Without a doubt, it was the best meal I have had in Moose Jaw. The flavours of everything we ate were in spectacular harmony. The meat was perfectly cooked just as ordered. The service was great and the atmosphere was exactly right. I will be returning soon and often, hungry for more.
The waiter was just marvelous. Food was excellent. Highly recommended.
The classiest hotel and food at a good price.
poor masonry and terrible smell.
Dinner was incredible. My girlfriend had the ribs with risotto and grilled vegetables, and I had the tenderloin with potatoes and grilled vegetables. The ribs were incredible, very tender and the sauce was delicious. The risotto was also a star of the meal. For the tenderloin was cooked well, and the sauce was the star of the plate. The grilled veggies were another highlight. Overall wonderful dinner experience. The breakfast was okay, but dinner seems to be their specialty. The breakfast sandwich has a unique sweet sauce that is good, but unfortunately the chef forgot the bacon on the sandwich. The breakfast fajita was good, but the dinner was just 10x better.
Excellent, will be back
Everytime I go eat dinner to the Grant Hall I get delicious dishes, great wine, and the staff is super friendly. Definitely will go back.
The food in this place is not only good but the Service was really from another planet. These people really go out of their way to make things happen! Even though we had come to this place to share a meal (me and my wife) they took the effort to split one dish into two and still made us feel like we were royalty.
What a great place to stay! Very quiet and old but modern! Well restored. Great job, owners and staff.
Waited 35 minutes before the server acknowledged us at our table to get our order. Food arrived lukewarm. Roasted vegetables was two pieces of steamed broccoli. Food was just ok for the price. We sat for 45 minutes after our meal waiting for the bill. They have a nice menu but based on this experience, I will not be returning. Lots of other places to eat in Moose Jaw with better food and better service.
Friendly staff
The service was great. The receptionist, Jacq, was very helpful. We were arriving late that the restaurant will be closing by the time we get there. She took our order over the phone. Arrived 10mins before the retaurantant closed and the food was delivered to our room.The server, Bree (hope I remembered the name correctly)was wonderful as well. Dinner was great and worth it! Staff were ageat!
Good solid breakfast, but with excellent coffee (yes, the coffee was good enough to add the 5th star)
Very pleasant dining experience. Excellent menu selections and the food and service was superb. The elegant atmosphere of Grant Halls restoration, which reflects its history in the 1920s, adds to the ambiance.
Join your friends for some rooftop garden bevies,..this would be a great place to host live music
Awesome place! We love the salad and best beef steak offered here. Highly recommend their beef steak, half done!
Disappointing. Ordered steak medium rare and it was medium well. Saving grace was a nice friendly waitress.
Certainly not your typical hotel breakfast. Menu, service, good food. The setting is exceptional. Worth it. You do get a discount coupon if you are staying at the hotel.
The Peanut shrimp and cheese board where both great in different ways. Would recommend!
Extremely disappointing. My wife and I ate supper here for our 1st wedding anniversary. Going by the reviews and the prices, I was expecting great food and service but we got neither. The dining room itself is very nice but thats about it. Most restaurants will go above and beyond to make an occasion like a birthday or anniversary feel special, but here there was nothing added. No acknowledgment, no extras, and even for a regular meal the service wasnt great or attentive. The food wasnt any better. My wife ordered the tenderloin, and it was fine, but nothing special you couldnt get anywhere else for less. I ordered the bison steak medium rare, and it came completely undercooked. Tried to get through part of it, but had to send it back. This was the only time Ive ever had to send food back at a restaurant in my life. Mistakes happen, but usually youd expect some kind of compensation for the trouble to make things right as any other place would do. All we got was a sheepish sorry as I got my reheated steak back on a small plate. Pretty sad for the prices they charge, there wasnt anything to justify it. Overall you could get a better meal and much better experience on a night out for half the price at any chain restaurant than what we got here. Wont be returning.
I ve stayed at the hotel previously and loved it but I never had a chance to try their restaurant so this time around I did and wow. Farm to table and the atmosphere & restorations are very unique. Worth checking out for sure!
Always a pleasant time!
Food was well prepared and reasonably priced. Service was top notch
Food was excellent and the service was even better. Thanks Bree.
Food was not good, came out cold and had no flavor. Expected way better especially due to the price.
I had a great meal at the Grant Hall Hotel, Little Chicago Steakhouse & Grill. The ribeye was cooked to perfection with a wonderful peppercorn sauce. Good service!
Did the pick your meat, 2 sides and the sauce. The food was amazing. Had the crab cakes for an appie. Delicious. Definitely would go back again.
What. The. Heck. Demonstrating again that a gorgeous, classy interior simply cant compensate for poorly done food. This was the worst meal weve had in MJ. Actually, it was the worst meal weve had in a while, anywhere (including fast food). Our server was helpful and knowledgeable, thats about it. My wifes escargot was dumped on the plate cold and salty. My salad had not a single fresh ingredient. Our steaks were lukewarm and overcooked. I ordered $15 of whiskey and received barely enough to cover the bottom of the glass. Half a pinkys width, maybe. Dessert was over-sweet and tasted *cheap*. We were shocked. HARD PASS.
Absolutely loved our visit. If you want to eat in the dining room make a reservation, though the lounge was awesome. The food was delicious, and our server was amazing. The creme brulee was the best Ive ever had- and I have had too many. Highly recommend!
The overall experience was great. Lots of food. The Decor and comfortable seating certainly added to the experience. The Staff was attentive and pleasant.
We had drinks in the lounge and there was beautiful LIVE piano music. Loved the atmosphere.
Definitely awesome service and awesome food...
High end classic dining hall. Food and service was excellent. A bit pricy but worth it
Wonderful dining experience on our anniversary. The food was made to perfection and good portion sizes as well! Definitely recommend trying the Funky Monkey or S mores desserts - unlike anything we ve ever had before! Loved it.
Very good steak
Food took awhile but its a a beautiful place.
We went for supper on a Tuesday night. It was not busy. We had two servers. We had to WAIT for everything. One person did not get a napkin. Soup for one was served as soon as he got his beer. It was lukewarm. The other soup was served after that was taken away. Three dinners were brought in and then we waited for the last one. The food was o.k. but not hot. We waited and waited for the one dessert to be delivered & finally asked for it to go. We are from out of province & have been here before. The prices have gone up but the service has gone down. You are paying for the setting. That will be our last visit.
This place fearures top-notch dining in a top-notch atmosphere. Wed give it 6 stars if we could!
overall good experience, food was very tasty & staff were very attentive and friendly. a nice treat!
Food was so so.New menu, less food and more money
I would highly recommend the Grant Hall Dining Room. Its been a long time since I had a meal this good. It was our first visit here, but it wont be the last. Love the decor. Our server Kristine was wonderful. She took excellent care of us. If youre in Moose Jaw and are looking for a nice dinner out dont pass the Grant Hall Dining Room up.
The lunch menu and prices are great!
Love this heritage building, always good service
Beautiful decor and architecture. Great food and service. Very reasonably priced lunch menu.
Excellent!!
This place is absolutely stunning. The food is exquisite and mouthwatering. The service is second to none. Will be coming back for many years to come.
Very elegant Dining Room, service and food excellent.
Priced to high for what you get !
Fabulous meal. Love the bldg. Will be back !
I have eaten here three times. The first was for a weekend brunch and the food was so very good! I looked forward to coming back. Then I came for my anniversary. The restaurant was not busy, yet we were virtually ignored. Getting our servers attention for a refill on drinks was a pain, and no one came to check on us throughout the meal or to offer a dessert menu. In order to pay we had to leave our table and stand by the front counter. We had waited a long time for the bill before we finally did that. Because I had had one good experience and one poor, I went a third time for a tie-breaker. I wish I could say it was a good experience, but it was not. We came at lunch and there was one other table seated. Somehow, the wait times between being seated, ordering, getting our food were ridiculous. We were there for 1.5 hours for simple lunch fair in an empty restaurant and could not get the wait staffs attention for ketchup for our fries or water or anything. I would only recommend going there for weekend brunch. Then you can serve yourself and not rely on what seems to be extremely slow and unattentive service.
Beautiful place! Had an awesome dining experience. This is a must see, dine and stay.
Super good service and great food. The steak was awesome. And the building is so ancient and historic.
I first made a reservation for my bf s birthday and when we got there on time they had already given our table away. Then we waited a half hour for a server. We ordered steaks and added the crab and asparagus topping ( Neptune). When my boyfriend got his he found a hair in his potatoes so they took it back and when he got it back they topped it with imitation crab pollock as opposed to the real crab it was supposed to come with. The total for the evening was $226 and was just terrible from start to finish....I called and complained and received $100 gift card which I haven t used yet. Not impressed at all.....
Food was very good. Duck was moist but chewy. Average sized portions, not too little, not too much. Service was very good. Did not pester and very knowledgeable about food and wine pairings. On the very high price end but worth a visit.
A very cool location. We had a party of 8 so were seated in a side room by ourselves, which is totally fine, but it seemed like we were forgetten about a few times. The dining experience is definitely a slow one (totally fine!)... We were there for almost three hours between cocktails, appys, meal and desserts. Most of the guests said their food was delicious. Three of us got the steak special of the evening and found that all of them were overcooked past our liking and very bland and underseasoned. Our waitress didnt come back for 20 mins after serving them, so we just ate them. Overall, we had a great visit, the special was just a little lacking! I would come back and give it another chance for sure.
My stuffed chicken fettuccine was awesome
great food , great place to visit
Fancy dining at its best. Beautiful environment and super friendly service. A must during your visit to Moose Jaw!
Wow
Sunday brunch....delicious food, excellent service!
Great meal in the lounge
Room was unique, classy and clean! Great experience due to the historical contrast to modern rooms. Craftsmen, er, I mean craftspersons, fashioned every piece of antique furniture in our room and the straw filled bed was awesome! (kidding about straw ) Our bizness trip felt like an adventure for that night, thank you Grant Hall!
Great service, awesome ambiance
The Ambience is great, the food came within a good space from each other. The food tasted very good. The service was okay. The main reason Im disappointed is because I had called and booked a reservation stating it was my partners bday, they said they would provide a cake or something. I then pulled the waiter aside after the meal to remind him, again I got a nod. We didnt even get a candle in the dessert we ordered or a discount on the meal. I was told by 3 people something would happen for my boyfriends birthday. Instead I paid way too much for an over priced meal.
The atmosphere was fine dining. My wife and I had an amazing meal. The surf and turf was very good, the scallops were sweet and tender. The dining room was beautifully done. And the server we had was knowledgeable and quick. Great place to go for a fancy meal.
Restaurant Reviw only, never stayed as a guest. Excellent Food and service, sunday brunches are amazing and well stocked, special occasion meals (easter, thanksgiving, etc) have always been a treat.
I went the first time to try it; it was my birthday and my wife took me; we were so unsatisfied that we got chicken nuggets afterwards. However i am a forgiving person so a year later i gave them a second chance; our service was horrible they forgot half our meal and the half that we did get was cold and i am pretty sure they used boxed mashed potatoes(i would have rather eaten the box).
Honestly disappounted this visit. My bison burger was charred..bacon deep fried..fries under cooked
Very good food and service. A wee bit pricey but delicious!!
Very cozy and nice place for special occasions. Excellent service. Beautiful hotel hall.
Service was slow, we barely had any service. Went around 1330, lunch time, there was maybe two other tables with people. One table cleared out shortly after we sat down. So youre looking at two tables in the whole place that they had to serve. Took them forever to fill our water or even come by, they were pretty standoffish as well. I had a salad, it was drenched in dressing. Price was ok for lunch, others at my table enjoyed their meal. Decor is very nice. Service is atrocious.
Spectacular fine dining in smart casual atmosphere.
We had the tenderloin and lake trout Service and food were great
The Grant Hall has beautiful decor with all the classic touches. The restaurant is lovely with a nod to relaxed fine dining. This is the place for the elegant take your time and enjoy your meal . Truly an enjoyable experience.
Amazing weekend brunch and great place to go when celebrating special occasions.
WOW ~.~. What a GORGEOUS, STUNNING Hotel. I did not expect such depth of luxurious furnishing decor. Very tastefully done. Such rich textures of a multitude of fabric, woods, Crystal, chandeliers etc. Even the bathrooms were Ahhhhh jaw dropping. I felt I was in a castle in Europe which we have visited. We were welcomed with open arms to come in and have a look around at our free will. They encouraged us to look to our hearts content. I just wanted to sit and linger in such luxurious atmosphere. We will definately stay here our next visit to Moose Jaw.
Excellent food!
