Went here for a friend's birthday dinner. I had the duck confit poutine. AMAZING! Fresh cut Kennebec potatoes and tender shredded duck with the most umptious gravy. I am still thinking of this gravy... mmmmm. Also tried the bison blue cheese burger with Caesar salad. The blue cheese was too overpowering and ruined an otherwise tasty, juicy bison patty. The calamari was ok but the onions and peppers that accompanied it was delicious! The caesars were also well mixed. There is also an extensive array of craft beers if this is your thing. I will definitely be going back for more of that gravy! More...

Friday lunch. Two people. Got seats right away. Had their legendary grilled cheese sandwich (with avocado and bacon) and salad. Order arrived right away. Have been here before, a few times after work hours to try their beer selection, which is also impressive. They run several specials so it is interesting that you can find something new. The interior is classic bar 90s style and the waitresses attentive (they know the menu in other words!). Will definitely come back. More...

I've eaten lunch at The Underground Tap and Grill a number of times so it was a natural choice when I met up with some colleagues for lunch.  This is a popular night spot but it isn't very busy at noon. They have a wide variety of tables so regardless of the size of your group they can handle it. My friends and I wanted to catch-up so we appreciated that The Underground isn't too noisy. It's not "romantic date night" quiet but it's a place where people can talk and hear each other.   The waiters were very attentitive and made us feel like they genuinely wanted us to be there.  I ordered the UG burger  which is made of bison meat. I upgraded the fries to yam fries (to ensure I get my veggies). It was delicious and very tidy as it didn't drip over my fingers as I ate it. In prior visits I ordered the onion cake burger which is especially good but somewhat messy. The size was perfect. We were satisfied but not stuffed. I can't comment about their drinks because we didn't order drinks since most of our group had to return to work but the beer list is extensive. I will keep coming to The Underground because the food is always good and the location is so handy. They have one or two excellent vegitarian selections.  Really I can easily recommend The Underground to anyone or any size of group. Take the train though as this is the heart of Edmonton's downtown so parking can be a challenge to find. More...

Great selection of beers plus good food.On busy days, make sure you book a reservation!I came here with some of my co-workers for supper and drinks on a Wednesday and the place was packed! So glad one of us had reserved a table because there were no empty ones. They have 72 rotating taps with new beers tapped every Thursday, with that selection of beers plus spirits, wine, and non-alcoholic beverages I bet anyone will find something to their liking.They have happy hour Mon-Fri 3-6pm plus Taco Tuesday, Wing Wednesday, Thursday Night Nachos, etc. There is always something to come and try!

I have been to this place on at least three occasions. Never have been disappointed. Food is consistently good and the service just as good. Wide variety of craft beers. Everything I like in a place to go after work. Menu specials change and I failed to have a poor meal. For a pub, this combines a fantastic selection of brews with an even better selection of food. I guess that's why it is packed after 5:00. More...

It's been a while since I've been here and so we decided to come here for dinner. It wasn't too busy when we got here which was nice. I ordered the Ahi Tuna burger with sweet potato fries on the side and it came out like a master piece. The bun was super soft and the Ahi Tuna slices were nice and thick. My sweet potato fries were also very crunchy and fresh. It made me wonder why I haven't been here more often! My boyfriend ordered the chicken burger and it also looked and tasted delicious. The service was good since it wasn't so busy. I am definitely coming back here again for food. They have a good selection of local beers as well. Local beers for $5 on certain days and they also have wing nights. Check out their specials it's pretty worth it! The only complaint that I would say I had was the water. Water is served out of these clear glass bottles... That look pretty old. I have a feeling that they pre pour water into these bottles and then give them to tables. It didn't look fresh... or perhaps the glass bottles had hard water stains on them or calcium stains? But that kind of threw  me off. I didn't really drink water so it didn't really matter perhaps this was just a one off... Other then the water thing I think the overall quality of food and service was good. I am definitely going to come  back here for food again! More...

Came here with a group on a Wednesday night and had no trouble finding a table for 9. Service was prompt and there was a good selection of drinks- plus $5 beers and half price wings all night. They have nice clearly marked dietary options on their menu (veggie, gluten free) and were happy to take care of a celiac friend with us. I had the bacon avocado grilled cheese sandwich, which was perfectly toasted and not too enormous; everyone else enjoyed their meals also. Seems like a great place to stop for drinks or dinner if you're downtown in the evening! More...

Myself and a small group of friends ended up going here over the weekend actually by accident. We needed to find a place nearby where we were and the Underground Tap & Grill was the first sign we saw. Their menu was posted outside beside the door, which I appreciated because I like to know what I'm getting myself into!We were seated right away, and the hostess, wait staff and manager (as I assumed he was) were all extremely nice. They clearly made an effort to be as friendly as possible which made the atmosphere of the place very enjoyable. All of us started with drinks - I ordered the Coconut White Russian which was stronger than anticipated but still very good! I just wish they had ounces on the list before I had ordered it!We then ordered the nachos which were deceivingly smaller than they appeared, it was actually pretty comical and no one found it to be too big of a deal. It was a pretty generic bowl of nachos - nothing amazing , nothing bad - just your good old fashion kraft cheese nachos.All of us ended up ordering the Bison Burger for our main meals. Some people asked for cheddar cheese instead of blue cheese which is probably what I should of done as I found the blue cheese a bit too overpowering on the burger. But honestly not horrible - just a little funky.The highlight however ... and the sole reason I would come back ... is for those sweet potato fries.Oh my.You haven't lived until you've had those sweet potato fries. Those alone get a 100/10 - delicious! More...

This is by far the best beer bar in Edmonton.  72 taps of all craft beer, not a Molson product to be found.  The downstairs location adds a bit of a speakeasy feel and the staff really does know their product and can make quality recommendations.  The beers are always rotating and always a wide selection of styles.The food is generally good too, the Ramen soup is great and the appies are usually quite good.  Unfortunately they changed the menu a few months ago and I think the fish tacos are gone.

This place has never disappointed me. If you want great selection of beer, not just number of beers but rather diversity and quality. I only start with the beer because that is what had me return after the first time. The food selection and quality is also top notch. If you're visiting YEG and staying near by, check it out. You won't be disappointed by what you get or what you pay for it. More...

The Underground is a quiet, clean pub with 72 beers on tap. It's two or three blocks away from two establishments with more prominent locations and music that's played too loud. The bartender and server on the night I had dinner with three friends were friendly and professional. We were there on steak night, so that was a treat. It was reasonably priced. I would go back if/when I visit Edmonton again. More...

This is one of our favorite spots in downtown Edmonton. We usually end up here mid-week for a late night drink/snack and it hasn't been too full or busy for us. It usually ends up being a small quiet crowd actually. They have a massive beer selection with a rotating selection so I usually get to try something new when I am there. If you don't already you should try out an App called "Untappd". It lets you log your beer/cider drinks you try. So when you do try something new you can log it into your app for future reference. And if you need to find that "hard to find beer" I usually hit up Sherbrooke Liquor. They have the biggest selection in town.Now back to The Underground! They have some Gluten Free and Vegan/vegetarian options. The food is really really great here. We haven't tried anything we don't like and haven't had anything come out that wasn't cooked/presented well. Service has always been good. They have nice big booths, table seating and bar seating. We usually pick a nice big booth to sit at. Atmosphere is casual and they usually showcase local art on the wall, which you can buy. More...

The Underground Tap & Grill is a great gem in the heart of downtown Edmonton. The restaurant is located in the lower level (below ground) of a building on Jasper Ave & 100 St. At one time they had an escalator at the front entrance to bring guests into the restaurant, but after mechanical issues and the cost to maintain they removed it from their restaurant. Now, stairs is the way to enter the restaurant and I believe there is an elevator but I could be wrong.The restaurant has a good feel to it. Not to dark and not too bright - just the right amount of light for a place to escape for a drink or two. Atmosphere is great, updated and clean but it is not unique or their "own." It is typical decor of a modern pub/restaurant and I believe they could have "fun" making this their own - especially with a name like the Underground Tap & Grill.The place however is quite clean. Bathrooms were great, seat coverings walls, tables, bar were well maintained. No appearances of anything needing to be replaced. The tap and grill offered 72 rotating taps - so if you are a fan of craft or independent breweries, this is the place to come too! I believe they also support Alberta breweries quite well as their claim to fame is having the largest Alberta selection of beer in Edmonton! They also rotate their kegs every Thursday bringing in new selection.They great thing about this place was the staff and how they serve. We had a young man who was the barkeep provide us with some of the best service I have ever experienced. We were sitting at the bar and it was a packed night. He was quick on his feet, remembered our names and was quite personal. It was a great experience!Part of the experience was asking the young man for a number of flights (6 small glasses of beer) of his choosing. We told him what we liked for taste and what we would want to avoid. The young man was amazing - he took notes and within time had a selection for us! He told us about each beer and then let us do our own thing! Beer was great and it was a nice touch to our time at the Underground.Food was dynamite. I was a little concerned with the menu as it was all over the map for dishes. Their was Mexican, American, Indian and so many other dishes that I didn't know if this would be a great "food" place to eat at. However, talking to our server he told us that they had a chef who would rotate dishes on the menu. Prices were ok but the specials were amazing. Supposedly Tuesdays are Taco Tuesday - $3 dollars each between dinner and 9 I believe. We had some appetizers, some other dishes and a few more beers and we were sold on this place.If I had any concerns or critiques I would have to say it would be the advertising or signage of the restaurant. You just might miss it if you are looking, but if you aren't you definitely will miss it. The Underground is a wonderful place for friends to gather at. Seating can accommodate all sizes of groups. In general, prices are ok, beer is excellent and food was great - just maybe too many dishes and variety for a menu.I would return again, but check it out and decide for yourself! More...

I can't believe I haven't finished my review for Underground.  This is one of my favourite favourite places in downtown Edmonton to visit since they opened. It's a true standby with food, drinks and atmosphere I can enjoy.Gluten free and vegetarian/vegan options on the menu - those blackened steak tid-bits are really tasty. Now you know which camp I'm in.  Drinks... I've never had a moment where I didn't find something on the menu I wanted. They have rotating taps for folks who can drink the beer - being celiac, I have fewer options, but there's ALWAYS a cider I like on the drink menu.  Beer flights - my companions regularly partake.We've had fantastic service, and average service.  Very rarely and nearly never poor or neglectful here - some places you have to beg for a bill these days, and I have not found that here. Come early, it gets busy. Check what the current daily specials are. They tweet the lunch specials often, and there are theme nights.  TVs, you can watch multiple sports, and there's art for sale on the walls. Nice they support local folks. More...
