All night menu tasting at the Granville Room from the Donnelly Group on Granville Street on May 30, 2013
I had no idea the Granville Room even served food, much less a full (mostly delicious) menu available until 2am, every night.
I thoroughly enjoyed the bar food appetizers including some crisp corn dogs and smoked bacon served straight up with peppers and HP sauce. Their duck confit and foie gras gravy poutine was another solid option on their diverse, eclectic menu.
Known for the drink program and delightful cocktails, I tried a trio of drinks. The Bourbon Smash (with Buffalo Trace bourbon, Cointreau, mint, sugar, and lemon peel) was a nice, chilled libation. Both the Cooper Union and Cointreuse Fizz were solidly bold and refreshingly bubbly.
The bacon and quail's egg buns was a really another highlight. It was so simple looking yet delightful. For our mains, we tasted the roasted cornish game hen, parmesan and basil pesto flatbread, seared Albacore tuna, grilled beef tenderloin (with goat cheese potato gratin), and mac and cheese (with braised beef and aged cheddar béchamel).
These were all very rich, decadent entrees and much more filling than they appeared. I'd say the mac and cheese was a standout and is easily wolfed down after a night out. I was delighted to discover Granville Room's tasty and diverse dinner menu full of comfort food options. It's definitely an attractive option on the Granville Street entertainment strip with limited choices late at night.
