The Ground Round

I was excited when I heard the ground round was back! Such a nostalgic restaurant. I loved the popcorn and French onion soup. I ordered the chicken parm for dinner and was not impressed. Also the drinks were super strong. Not a bad thing, sometimes ! It was almost too strong to enjoy, my fiancee returned her Mai Thai because it was overpowering with alcoholand got a beer. Based on my overall experience I would return to have apps, a strong drink and a dessert. Our server was super friendly and welcoming.

I ordered fish and chips for dinner, wife had Cobb salad, friends had ribs and steak tips. They said ribs were delicious and steak tips were good. They got onion rings as a side and mashed potatoes... sides were okay. Onion rings looked great but tasted just okay. Wife's salad was delicious. My fish was huge. Not greasy at all. Way too much for me to finish in one sitting. Fries were okay. We'll be back to try the ribs 😀

Our food was amazing! Our service was also amazing! Owners came to the table and extremely friendly! It really had the Ground Round feel! It was nostalgic and didn’t disappoint brought me back!

Well, the GR did not disappoint; Went for a Sunday afternoon reunion with friends, and enjoyed my wonderful Cobb salad! It’s definitely not the ground round of the 70s, no popcorn on the floor and no black-and-white movies, but hints of the nostalgia are all there – Especially the kindness of the waitstaff and management; The newest location is decorated in Halloween memorabilia – one statue particularly stood out to us – When we told the manager that it was our anniversary on Halloween, she then commented to please take the statue and enjoy your anniversary! The meaningful thing here is the friend that married us passed away years ago and had bought the same statue for us, but returned it because we kept changing our date!! 🤣 I have never seen a statue then or since like it. The manager was kind enough to offer the statue as a gift and remembrance of my friend. Thank you Ground Round! – it was a wonderful experience and we will be back again and again and again.

Busy place. Bbq whiskey burger was ok. Fries were too salty. Also had a salad- also ok. Place has potential- though for the prices they have, and the wait time for a table - food must be improved. Almost a 4 out of 5 stars.

The 3 bartenders on 9/13 were AWESOME! Ground Round is an old nostalgic place for me I was super happy to go, the food was ok, the grill cook needs lessons on how to cook meats, other than that super fun, popcorn! and the red sangria YUM! I definitely would recommend and I will be going back

We went to the Ground Round to see how the place was after reopening. I must say that the visit, by any stretch was stellar! Lyn had a classic cheeseburger, Michelle had a chicken wrap, and I had the Ground Rounder, medium rare. Lyn enjoyed her cheeseburger quite a lot. Michelle really enjoyed her chicken wrap quite a bit! My Ground Rounder. I can speak to my experience. That burger, to my utter astonishment, was an experience like you dream about. The burger was perfectly cooked. The first bite I took hit me like a wash of divine revelation. The meat was so impeccably tender. The fixings augmented the experience to a blissful level. This is far beyond your typical foodgasm. I was reminiscing about each bite I took after I took it. And to crank up the experience to stellar, was our server, Tamara. We had some things come out that weren't quite right. Tamara handled it so perfectly. Just took care of each thing and made it right. Like I asked for onion rings and I got fries. Tamara took care of like a boss. Michelle's wrap was missing sauce. Tamara made it a total non-issue in the blink of an eye. The random other requests we had were fulfilled in a professional manner the likes of which you never forget. Michelle and Tamara even got to chatting about things and Tamara even had some unexpectedly useful tips! I massively enjoyed my experience there and I still remember it fondly. Tamara deserves a hell of a pay raise or a unicorn or something. Totally unreal. Can't wait to do it again.

It was a cool nostalgic trip to go back to a ground round! We got the Pot of Gold appetizer combo. The onion rings and chicken tenders were decent, the steak and cheese egg rolls were good and cheesy but a bit salty, and the mozzarella half moons were very good with a crisp crust and a molten center that has a nice cheese pull! I ordered a medium rare BBQ Whiskey Burger that was cooked to medium but was pretty tasty. We also tried the Baby Back Ribs and Shrimp, the ribs were good and tasty but the Shrimp were like a salt lick. Our server was cordial and did return to check on us but seemed like they were trying to manage too many tables at the same time. We will definitely return to try more of the menu!

I had such a great experience at the Ground Round in Shrewsbury. The atmosphere has a very nostalgic feel, and the décor really adds to the charm of the place. It's family friendly with an upbeat vibe, and you can tell people genuinely enjoy being there. There are enough tables and staff that we did not have to wait. The food was fantastic, many drink options -- I had the French Dip sandwich from the special's menu, and it was honestly one of the best I've ever had. From the hostess to the waitstaff, everyone was so welcoming and friendly, which made the visit even better. On top of that, the building itself is really unique and adds to the whole experience. Definitely a spot worth visiting -- I'll definitely be back!!

Staff was amazing. Very efficient and nice. Quick to bring items and popcorn. Quick to clear. Food was ... meh. Looked pretty and tasted good but not worth the hype. Mac and cheese was decent but not something I'd drive for. Haddock was decent. Dessert was quick to come and smelled great. Smallish for the price ($10 for a medium crock of apple crisp). And it needed ... something. Maybe more cinnamon and a little more sugar. I've heard it's a nostalgia thing but I didn't buy it. I'm just glad they didn't still have a scale for the price of your meal (back in ye old olde days, kids got on the scale on like Tuesdays and your weight was what your parents paid ... great for the overweight kid).

I've been three times and have to say that this is more than just a nostalgic walk down memory lane for those of us who knew the old Shrewsbury Ground Round. Here's the thing, the food is really good and the atmosphere is lively and fun. During our last visit my fiancé had the lobster roll, her son had steak tips and I had grilled chicken roll up. All were excellent. A must try for elevated casual dining in a warm and fun setting.

What a throwback and so glad this restaurant came back from the ashes. We waited 90 minutes to be seated as the restaurant itself isn't too large but the nostalgia of it all from the popcorn to the American classics. Wings were good as I remembered. We all ordered different dishes to try and all were decently portioned and priced somewhat reasonably. Service was great and friendly. Plenty of parking

Was hoping to relive the great memories I had of this place. Not so much. Service was slow. But the real disappointment was the food. Flavorless and just not good. Nothing really reminded me of the old version. This is a one and done for me.

Amazing food and exceptional service. The nostalgic atmosphere brings back childhood memories. This place is a restaurant that is for everyone and any occasion. I enjoy a casual night out with friends or bringing the family and making memorable memories.

Jane (our waiter) and all the other staff are very nice,interior 5 stars it's Halloween themed, they have tom and Jerry and football (footballs at the bar area), popcorn is delicious,fresh and warm 10/10 perfect blend of butter and salt, they have Andes mints in the front, appetizers came in a decent amount of time,pretzels are pretty good and the so is the beer cheese,some main courses came in a good amount of time, Mac and cheese has a very unique and good flavor would recommend. All in all this is a very underrated restaurant in my opinion and it's very good 5 stars!

I enjoyed this place! A nicely reno to the bar, though I do miss Mai tai store, Mai tais. The Ground Pound still makes a good tai. Also, the shrimp vodka is quite good.

Who doesn't remember heading to The Ground Round as a kid? The chicken basket and fries, the ice cream served in tiny baseball helmets, the cinnamon dippers , all while your parents tried to drink away their stress and shove free popcorn into your face just long enough to enjoy a quiet meal. Simpler times. So imagine my excitement walking into the "new" Ground Round in Westborough/Southborough, hoping for a bite of nostalgia. Unfortunately, the first sign that things weren't going to go well was... the door handle , half hanging off like it, too, had given up hope. Inside, it looked like someone had gone on a cross-country scavenger hunt for any random piece of old Ground Round memorabilia they could find, then tossed it all into what appears to be a converted something , I'm still not sure what it used to be. The service? Exactly what you'd expect , polite but unremarkable. The food? Also exactly what you'd expect , edible but forgettable. There was nothing wrong with it, but nothing worth talking about either. It was a one-time visit for the "Hey, we went!" moment, followed by a quick "Yeah, we've been... not sure you'd like it though" kind of recommendation. In short, it's not bad , it's just painfully average. The kind of meal that makes you realize you could've made the same thing (and probably better) at home, without the broken door handle or misplaced nostalgia.

Such a nostalgic feeling when visiting the newly opened The Ground Round in Shrewsbury. We started with some popcorn and pretzels with beer cheese, along the blueberry bella & nostalgia 9 adult beverages. My friend had the broccoli cheddar soup, and it could have been a little thicker. For entrees, my guy and friend had the burgers with fries or sweet potato fries, I enjoyed the sweet potato fries and wish we got some onion rings. I had the 4 cheese mac & cheese with crispy buffalo, which was absolutely delicious. Want to give a huge shout out to our waitress Lisa. As you can imagine, it was extremely busy, but she made our experience smooth with great communication and service.

Newly opened in Shrewsbury, The Ground Round has opened up on Grafton St at Route 9 Westbound. This classic restaurant & bar has a rustic modern lodge atmosphere with a high pitched wood ceiling with wood beams with the full service bar area to the left and main dining room and quieter dining room to the right. In the bar area, there is seating at the full service bar, flatscreen TVs, TouchTunes digital jukebox, and historic framed Ground Round prints & menus on the walls and in the area outide the restrooms. The opening of The Ground Round in the area has been highly anticipated by many, who have fond memories of dining at The Ground Round as a kid and young adult when there were plenty of locations open. I enjoyed countless meals and kids meals at my former local Ground Rounds in NY including in Albany, Colonie, Latham, Schenectady, and East Greenbush. I miss their Kids Pay What They Weigh (penny a pound) promotion, scale at the hostess stand for kid weigh in, lol. Also, the best part of my meal was getting their Slider Sundae for dessert served in a plastic mini baseball cap, which I still have a collection of different major league teams like the Red Sox, Yankees, Pirates, Phillies, A's, Royals, Twins, Dodgers, Expos, and Brewers. My most recent Ground Round dining experiences close to 20 years ago were several miles up the road at the former Tin Alley Grill in Framingham (Ground Round restaurant) where their fajitas were excellent and they had great happy hour specials. Fast forward to 2025, I decided to stop in at The Ground Round in Shrewsbury, which had their soft opening over the weekend. Open for dinner only during the soft opening phase. The dining room was booked solid and the bar was very busy. At the time of this posting, they were offering a very limited soft opening food menu including select appetizers, salads, pasta, burgers, sandwiches, fish & chips, steak tips, kids menu and desserts. The pricing is moderate high. The bar is fully stocked offering 10 draft beers, bottle/can beers, wine list, cocktails and mocktails. I took a seat up at the bar. I was given a soft opening food menu which I already read on social media. For dinner, I ordered the Ground Round Chicken Florentine ($24 plus tax), which had soft cooked campanelle pasta tossed tossed in a creamy cajun sauce with spinach, sliced blackened grilled chicken & arugula, served with buttered garlic toast. This pasta dish was very good and I requested a container for half of this dish, so I could order dessert.. For a dessert, the Baseball Cap Sundae ($7 plus tax) had a scoop of vanilla ice cream topped with chocolate sauce, whipped cream, rainbow sprinkles, & cherry on top in a plastic mini baseball cap. However, the black mini cap had no team logo and I did ask about it. The bartender said the caps are supposed to have Red Sox or Woo Sox and the logo must have washed off. What a disappointment..... I requested the check when I was done, which was $33.17 with tax and before tip. Another bartender cashed me out. Overall, the food here tasted just fine and if I do come back to a Ground Round (MA, OH, ND, ID), I would get the fish & chips which looked like a good sized portion. The music was too loud in the bar area and could hardly hear. However, the service here needs improvement. I am cognizant that they are trying to work things out before they go full steam ahead. The bartender had a chippy attitude, did not offer me popcorn and basically told me "I don't know what to say" and walked away after I asked about the blank baseball cap, no resolution. Most bartenders would ask my name to put on the tab/check, but the name on my check was Back Row Hat (probably easier for food runners to identify or maybe they could use seat numbers). Also, no manager or owner introduced themselves to me, so I will not likely return to this location for a while. Unfortunately the service here was very similar to the former Tin Alley Grill in Framingham, which I gave the same rating, good food, spotty service. I will note, I've had both good food and stellar friendly service at the former Ground Round locations in Upstate NY, back when people actually cared.

Food is made from scratch and was delicious. Service was great and the owner is extremely nice.

The food is just okay. Sadly not worth going back , the burger was tasty served as I ordered it. Fries , onions rings frozen nothing special. The fried pickles were bland they more breading than necessary. The drinks are good The staff is very nice and attentive the food detracted from their efforts. The restaurant needs a food upgrade before they lose customers. The parking area needs more lights

Ok so the poor service was really surprising our waitress Jane was fitting as she was Jane Doe nowhere to be found we had to ask for silverware and napkins as we never were given any and she had the personality of a porcupine. The food was just OK the meat in the French Dip seemed cheap it was not good. The crazy thing is we got two french dip and two ice teas and it was $73 without tip!!!!

Visited on Friday night, there before opening to ensure we could get in without a wait. The inside is clean, the service was timely, the menu has diversity. Nothing that memorable, will put it in rotation for every few months.

We arrived shortly after 4:00 PM when the restaurant opened and the place was already filling up with early bird diners. I thought there might be a special menu/dinner option because of the crowd, but there were no specials. We originally planned to have a late lunch, but GR isn't open for lunch yet. The interior has a lot of exposed beams and two tvs tuned to the Cartoon Network. We were seated and within a minute had some fresh popcorn on our table. We looked at the two-sided menu and opted for the steak tips and the signature burger. There were a lot of options that are being served in most restaurants today. Both meals were large enough that we both needed to bring the leftovers home. That didn't stop us from ordering the fried dough triangles. They were tough and hollow. The accompanying dipping sauces were skimpy and the triangles were too big to fit into the small plastic cups. Other than this dessert, the food was very good but not great. I think the prices were higher than expected, given the GR"s reputation for good food at family friendly prices. The service was adequate, but the people who were seated within minutes of us still hadn't received their main meals before we finished eating our dessert. I think it's a good restaurant but if you're looking for a trip down memory lane, Ground Round misses the mark.

My wife and I finally went to The Ground Round this past Friday night. We love that the Ground Round has returned to Shrewsbury; having taken our kids when they were young to the one near Spag's so many years ago. Our server (Susan) didn't rush us, provided good recommendations, and made us feel welcomed. The atmosphere is so friendly; even other servers walk by saying hi to everyone. The calamari appetizer was nice and light (not oil soaked like so many other establishments). I had the special, Salmon Oscar (best tasting salmon I've ever had at a restaurant). I'll order it any time I see it on their menu (hopefully, it's a frequent special). My wife really liked the baked Haddock and found it good tasting, flaky and moist. Needless to say, The Ground didn't disappoint. We will return soon! You will not be disappointed if you go there.

Staff was very nice . Had a large party ,brought our own birthday cakes which the manager had no problem with . Our waitress, Jane , was a professional, she had no issue with handling a table of 9 . Been to other places where it took 2 waitstaff to take care of 9 and still f things up so high praise to Jane . Food was good , not great but above average . Burger was excellent and huge , fish and chips nice and crispy, ribs , tips excellent. Can't review dessert, we brought my wife's homemade cheesecake , which is excellent by the way . Will definitely go back . A little different than the old Ground Round but worth it .

I had no idea what to expect with Ground Round. I had never heard of it but people kept talking about it and the parking lot is always full. We decided to give it a shot since we only live 3 minutes away. We were very impressed! The food was delicious, service was great (our server was Keegan)! We definitely will be going back!

They are still in the soft opening stage, to iron out the kinks before they fully open. With that said, cut them a little slack! They are def trying their best to please everyone. We went on a Monday , it was busy and the bar was full, we got our drinks right away, we were offered popcorn while we waited for our food, and the food was amazing! My bf said it was the best steak tips he has in a long time and my fish and chips were perfect! Can't wait for the full menu to try some more items ! The staff is super friendly, and attentive! Feels like your neighborhood pub for sure ! They are only going to get better with time and experience!

That's delicious in the restaurant for chicken parmigiana sandwich and fries. Popcorn too. My friends and I went at the Ground Round at first time.

The Ground Round!!!! We have been waiting for months and so happy when it opened! The day we went we did have to wait because everyone else was also super excited they opened!!! But it was definitely worth the wait! The staff were wonderful and the food was delicious!!!! The spinach artichoke dip was so creamy and amazing and the burger was delicious!!! Oooh and the sweet potato fries!!! They were the good kind!!!! Oh and I was so excited to get my son the slider sundae! He LOVED it!!! Can't wait to go back!!!

The food was delicious and the portions were huge! Our server Keegan was very friendly, accommodating and had a lot of knowledge about the Ground Round legacy. We went on a Tuesday at 4:15 and the restaurant was already getting busy. Kids "pay what they weigh" on Tuesdays so we couldn't pass up such a good deal with our young kids. The food came out really fast and again it was SO flavorful. I loved all the nostalgia memorabilia throughout the restaurant. Even the kids were entertained by the 90s cartoons playing on a TV nearby. Can't wait to go back and try another meal.

First of all, I am very happy that this restaurant has come back to life. I would come here all the time with my family in the 90s and was so sad when it was gone. My return back after so many years was very pleased to see how clean and new and bright it looked . Just walking in the door and seeing the popcorn machine right near the podium brought back warm memories. We had eaten in the dining room where they had various television screens showing different episodes of Tom and Jerry. Again classic nostalgia I remember coming here as a kid looking at all the bright colored neon lights and all the different cartoons on the television as I ate my favorite meals. They have incredibly large boots and the service was very good. I was not too impressed with the cheesesteak eggrolls because they did taste like a cheap frozen thing you would get at the grocery store and not made fresh. And the French dip sandwich was really nothing to write home about. Again I have not been here in several years and after their reopening the last thing I want to do is be negative, but if I don't mention something, then it will not leave room for improvement. Would I recommend this restaurant? Absolutely yes. They might need to tweak their menu around a little bit and make some improvements and have House made steak and cheese eggrolls instead of something that is frozen but other than that, I think this restaurant has the ability to bring back everything that we loved decades ago. I will most certainly be back again and try something different.

I'm aware they're in a soft opening so I will be going back at some point to try other things on the menu but here's my initial thoughts: I had a reservation at 6:00 pm on a Saturday and it was busy, probably took about 25-ish minutes to be sat, really not bad. Our waitress was lovely and very attentive, she did let us know that a couple of the chefs had called out as a heads up, no big deal. She came over quickly with our drinks, was great about refills and we got a yummy bowl of popcorn too. My husband and I ordered the mozzarella moons and the pretzel sticks to share. The mozz moons are a pretty good size but only come with 3, I kind of feel it should be at least 4 for maybe a larger party; they're tasty though and the sauce they come served over was good too, also has some pesto mixed in which hubby loved. The pretzel sticks were hot, maybe felt a bit overdone on the outside but were fluffy on the inside; my issue is the menu says it's served with either beer cheese or honey mustard, we weren't asked which we'd like so they got sent out with both, but on the bill at the end I noticed I was charged a $1.50 for both dips. I didn't bring it up with the server because, really, I'm not pressed about $1.50, it's just something to note for the future. Both apps took a bit to come out but our waitress kept letting us know that she had checked on them and they'd be coming soon, and for the trouble offered us the cheesecake dessert, which I'm not sure if it's supposed to, but came with two slices, one for me and hubby, it was very tasty. Hubby and I's main entree was the fish n' chips. He loved it, I didn't. The fish to me felt tough and not flaky, the batter wasn't super crispy either. I've read multiple reviews on both sides of the spectrum for this meal so I'm wondering if they're really just working out the kinks here. I'd be willing to give it another shot in the future. This building is in the old Benihana which I've never been inside so I'm not sure how much decoration/structure was left over, and I'm sure they're still working on it, but it needs more. Please bring back a carousel horse, that's what I vividly remember from the old place. Overall, for a soft opening, it wasn't bad. I've seen some folks write them off already and I don't think that's fair, give them a chance to get the kinks worked out and I think this place will be a gem. I'll be back for sure!

Got there at about 4:30 (they open at 4pm this particular day) and it was already busy. Sat at the bar, waited for my husband. Upon his arrival, we shared nachos with buffalo chicken. Now let me say... the portion is HUGE. And the nachos and toppings are absolutely delicious. We added buffalo chicken and that, however, was very scarce. Very. Not much to be found. But the nachos were on point. Fresh lettuce and generous veggie toppings. Delicious. Served hot with great cheese distribution throughout (oddly, that's a common problem with Nachos... cheese distribution). Service at the bar was EXCELLENT. Super friendly, extremely attentive, very nice. Just the kind of visit I needed after a bit of a stressful day. We look forward to coming back, but you really have to visit at the right time and, judging by our past attempt at visiting with our kids w/us and also the drives past this place on numerous occasions, I'm not sure there is a "right" time. They are BUSY. But I think it's worth the wait. And yes, the nostalgia is pretty good, too. Many Ground Round memories for me from the 90s and early 2000s.

They take reservations but only for large groups. I was delighted to see most of the old Ground Round favorites on the menu. I had the French Dip and my friend had the Haddock. Portions were fair to generous. My friend was unable to finish the fish let alone the french fries accompanying. Service was prompt, friendly and professional. It was a Saturday Night and the place was busy. Popcorn is served to all tables as in the Ground Round tradition. There's a separate bar and TV screens in the bar and restaurant. My french fries were great and my friends cole slaw was as well.

Service was great, our waitress was phenomenal. Ordered the chicken parm and it was so tasty and crispy. The pasta is a little on the mushy side. The Mac and cheese is honestly so gross so stay far away from it. It's a shade of yellow I've never seen before.

Two typical pub burgers, Two cokes $46 plus tip $56 total! You decide. Nothing more needs to be said.

Great place to hang out. Need a reservation these days. This is the new Ground Round. I was in my twenties when they were big so it's great to see them back.

Outstanding meal & service! The nostalgic aroma of popcorn the minute I walked in the door was so welcoming! Food was cooked perfectly, especially the onion rings! The burger was like a burger at a backyard bbq, but 10x better. Service was attentive, but not intrusive. Just the right pace. Decor was very comfortable and casual with a touch of elegant cabin-like feel. TV screens throughout the dining area with cartoons, but not in your face or overwhelming. Great option for the whole family! It was like a well-oiled machine and they just opened!

Went there for Mother's Day. From the hostess to the waitress it was the BEST SERVICE we've had in a long long time!! Appetizers were good. The menu was limited because of the holiday but good choices. Had the haddock fish and chips $22 . The batter was not something I've had before. Thick and crusty ( overcooked) but good flavor. Cole slaw soggy. FF good. Mixed drinks were average. Decor was bright as I like. The excellent service made the day nice!! Check it out!!!

Service is great. Food was good. Prices were OK. But it was a bit of nostalgia. Nice to see a ground round back in operation.

Our party of 3 adults arrived at 5:30 on Sunday night. There was a projected hour wait for a table. We were ok with that since we really wanted to try The Ground Round just for its Nostalgic memories. Bar was standing room only, so we ventured in expecting to stand for a bit. Then I heard, my name and was told 2 seats had opened at the Bar. Was pointed to the open chairs, thinking at least 2 of us could sit as we waited for our table. Learned the Full Menu was available at the Bar, and a 3rd seat became available within minutes. So, Dinner at the Bar was on! Greg, promptly took our drink order, provided Great Warm Popcorn and dinner menus. He didn't rush us to order meals, made sure we had our drinks and waters and were made to feel comfortable. Since the bar was busy, he mentioned that Adriana could answer questions we had about the menu, should he be serving others. What a Team! Full of Smiles, attentive and friendly. Well, the menu is full of cuisine selections, not just Burgers and Fries. We chose 3 varied meals, all presented magnificently, hot and cooked as requested. Impressive! Especially considering how busy the place was that evening. What a fun, enjoyable experience. Value was excellent too. Thank You!

Drove about 30 minutes to try and was not disappointed. Extremely busy but waitress was amazing. Attentive, gave suggestions on menu and was a delight. Food portions were generous. Had Brock chicken and was extremely moist and tasty. Husband had surf and turf and no complaints. Steak cooked correctly. White sangria was real good. With drive and will return

First time being there (since we were kids). There was a wait be we got lucky and found two seats at the bar. The bartenders were AWESOME! Extremely attentive!!! Never has to ask for a refill because they asked first! Food was awesome. I had the Mac & Cheese with buffalo chicken and my husband had the tips and ribs. He loves ribs and is very critical of them but said those were awesome! He orders the tips medium and came out medium as they should (so many places end up get it wrong). My Mac & Cheese was so good and the buffalo chicken was AWESOME! I don't remember if buffalo chicken is an app, but if it's not it should be! We had the Calamari for an app, Rhode Island style is an option which we chose. Again, it was delicious! The vibe is great. Very friendly! The music that was playing was older rock which of course adds to the through back vibe! And that's real blueberries in my blueberry beer!! It took us just under an hour to get there....but we will be making that trip often!!!

45 min wait on a Sunday's night so we sat at the bar and ordered drinks and an app since 45minutes. At 45 minutes we got our app and to their benefit they were spot on with our table as they called it while we we enjoying the app (45 minutes for cheesesteak eggrolls). I brought my second drink amd props to the hostess for asking and bringing our app to our table. As suspected, our waitress delayed coming to us as we already had drinks and an app and she thought someone else had helped us. Getting food took another 30 minutes. Overall food 2as good. But is that all you want when going out to eat??

The intirer is a classic loge vibe and the food is so good hightly recommend the burger and workers are so nice

Great service and food ! Staff very attentive . Cozy atmosphere, very warm and welcoming .

Told us 40-1hr wait, it was a 2 hour wait. We have 2 kids. If they were honest from the start- we wouldn't be disappointed customers. We would have left and come back another time. Got there at 415 and got our food 715!!!!!!! Wild. Need to be better at estimating and being honest with walk-ins

The service is a little slow because they are always slammed! It's kinda pricey and not really great but it's also not terrible. Just don't expect a lot! It's more for the nostalgia of our childhoods

Check out The Ground Round in Shrewsbury, MA. The food, staff, and ambiance are more than you would ever expect! It is incredibly popular and has a line at the door when they open at 4:00. We've gone there 4 times but only got in twice. After eating there, it's worth the wait. The food is amazing. Everything is fresh and made from scratch. It really has the feel of the old Ground Rounds, but I don't ever remember the food being so good!!!

I went to The Ground Round with some friends and family. It was about a 15 minute wait until we got seated which was honestly less than we were expecting due to how busy it was. I ordered the chicken florentine and it was absolutely delicious. Our food came after maybe 30 minutes but the entire time we had several people check in with us and offer us popcorn and drinks. We understand that they are only in soft opening phase so they are still getting used to things and straightening out any kinks but it was great. And from what Ive heard their current menu is only half of their total menu so it's clear that their menu is going to be massive. Me and my family also loved the Ground Round Hound mascot and I was very nice and nostalgic to see a restaurant have these kinds of quirks that you don't really see too often anymore. 10/10!!! Going again soon!

Over priced steak tips burnt inedible 1 and a half hours to complete our meal. I remember the ground round from back in the day and this is not a good place

W were frequent visitors to the "old" Ground Round owned by Bob Bonin back in the day. It was always a wonderful friendly experience with terrific food. Since we still live in Shrewsbury, myy wife and I decided to try the "new" Ground Round on Friday April 4 around 5:45pm. We were told there was a 30 minute wait. We got seated within 15. We ordered drinks and dinner around 6pm. Many people who came in after us were being served their food. Our waitress kept reassuring us that it was on the way. It was like we were invisible. I finally spoke to the owner who said she would take care of the order and our meal would definitely be comped. We didn't get our food until 7pm. My wife ordered the Fish & Chips. I got the Classic Cheeseburger. The food was tepid and not hot. It's not like it used to be from back in the day. Never going back!

We decided to try here. We waited a bit over an hour. The noise level was an eleven which was not enjoyable at all!! We couldn't hear each other let alone the waitress hear us. When taking our order she had to ask us to repeat ourselves a couple of times. The food was good I would say. We were a party of four and ordered two appetizers. The Mozzarella Moons only 3 in the order so not enough. Then the Boneless Buffalo Chicken very good but still a little light on the portion. For our meals a Cheeseburger (slightly undercooked) Chicken Parmigiana sandwich oddly open faced , the 12 oz sirloin good but had stuff drizzled on the plate that my son definitely did not like and last the Marinated steak tips (overcooked) but ok again the plate drizzled with Pesto? and balsamic maybe? The added drizzle a bit much for The Ground Round. The manager did comp us a dessert for the overcooked steak tips.

So decided to stop by with my cousin, went into the bar side and grabbed a couple stools before the bar filled up ( 4:15) that's a good sign even if they are 3 plus weeks into opening . Popcorn came quick from a busboy / barback , However only one bartender for 30 + seats ? Until they called in a back up 530ish , sorry a bar that large also with a service side should have 2/3 bartenders at least . Ordered wings , 7 ok sized dry rub $ 15, tasty . Had to ask for more blue cheese ( 2 times ) before finally getting them . Little plastic cups ? Ehh presentation would be better and easier with a monkey dish .. also had to ask for salt and pepper, ( should be set up automatically every few stools ) just makes it easier for bartenders and staff .. got two burgers med rare ( me ) med cousin both with fries . Came at reasonable time, again 1 small ketchup in a plastic container . Had to ask for more , plus salt and pepper again because it was taken away, my burger was med well, cousins was fine . We both had to ask for onions as his had 1 paper thin slice and mine had 2 pieces of chopped onion ? Again paper thin , both asked for extra and again a small amount brought out in a soufle cup ..can't really jam or put onions in a little cup ? Burgers were lacking flavor, had to salt and pepper ... ( not sure of the mix ) possibly 70/30 which may be the lack of flavor ... again not sure .. asked for water 2 times never received, asked first bartender for a coke when burger was delivered never got it asked second bartender for one when she arrived received it but was Diet Coke . Noticed three other diners next to us had some of the same issues with toppings and temps , it's a big space and the ceiling height makes it a bit difficult to dress it up with memorabilia or the like but it's definitely needs a few more cosmetic things other than a Budweiser sign . Hoping they straighten out the kinks before their grand opening next week .. definitely need more bodies on the bar side ...
