Tonight I went to Ground Burger and it was fantastic. My mom had recommended it and then I suggested a family outing. Make reservations and make them early if you want to go on a Friday, Saturday, or Sunday, as weekends are packed. On weeknights a there was 5 of us so still a bit of a wait (10-15 minutes longer) with our weeknight reservation because people lingered, but we got a great spot & great service so it was worth it.
I got the signature medium well burger with added house smoked cheddar and added bacon, with a house salad. The burger was absolutely fantastic, cooked perfectly not bloody at all but yet still juicy and flavourful. The house smoked bacon was crunchy yet chewy and gave the perfect level of smokiness.
The atmosphere was relaxed but very well put together and I enjoyed the industrial theme within and found it very appealing. But make note, the tables to your left as you walk in the door aren't very well lit everywhere else is. We didn't get a chance to try the balcony due to the fact that it's January, but it looks like there's a great view of the river & riverwalk commons aka the splash pad and skating rink and I'll definitely be coming back in the spring/summer to check it out.
Our waitress was so sweet and attentive and very helpful & she didn't hover, so we still had space for us to enjoy our meal.
Overall my experience was fantastic and I would recommend it to anyone.
