My girlfriend loved the food. She got the salad and the chowder We will be back. I might be delusional because she is hot. read more

Great food and great service during an impromptu weekday lunch with my wife; place should've been busier than it was. Hopefully they can stay afloat. read more

Food was great and tasty! Servers were extremely nice as well. I recommend this place is you want to have a chill dinner with your partner

Returned for another try. Shared calamari & Shrimp appetizer. Stuffed haddock very tasty. read more

We stopped in for a drink on a Sunday evening. On the front door we saw a special lunch menu! We went back with my sister and a friend during the week for lunch. It was incredible! My sister got the burger with fries. It was quite large. Juicy and very tasty she said. My husband got the cheese steak sandwich. He said it was delicious. My sister's friend ordered the truffle burger (not on the lunch special menu) He ate it all I got the soup and salad. I got the French onion soup. It was really, really good. One of the best I've had! The salad was a fresh mix of spring greens. Delish. I would highly recommend this restaurant, for sure! read more

Excellent. The food was good and the staff was friendly. I had the fish and chips which was delicious. Would definitely recommend.

Tried something new at the last visit. Ordered the wedge salad and was very surprised by the dish. Normally you'd see the wedge of iceberg lettuce on the plate with red onions and tomatoes with blue cheese dressing. Not this one. The bowl was very large with about a third of a wedge surrounded by large bacon bits, grape tomato halves, blue cheese crumbles and topped with red onion rings. Underneath the wedge was a whole pile salad of mixed salad greens which was the surprise. Made for a huge salad and a complete meal. Two containers of blue cheese dressing were supplied which was more than enough to coat everything. This was an amazing salad and will definitely order this again! Also ordered the French onion soup and Mac and cheese both of which have been reviewed before so won't go into detail on them here. And as usual the service was great and the restaurant was nice and toasty on a snowy winter's day. read more

Went here for the first time this week with friends and I will say it was really good! Our waitress was awesome and super nice! My friend and I tried the pineapple upside down cake martini and it is by far my new favorite drink! I promise if you try one of these it won't be your last!!! I ordered the truffle burger which was really flavorful and juicy, my husband ordered the New York strip! Both very good, next time he will try the steak tips cause they looked incredible! A little on the pricier side but the food was good and the place is very nice inside! read more

I've eaten here several times and to be honest the staff is never very welcoming at least in my experience and the food is a bit over priced for the quality to be honest to be fair the menu is very hit or miss I've had a couple dishes that were fine but I've also had things that I did not care for at all over all I wouldn't really recommend this place read more

Was very disappointed...the first time we were here it was amazing but this time what a mess...our server was nowhere to be found my steak was rare when I asked for well done...would have really liked a second cup of coffee not happening...our sides were cold ...when we asked to talk to the manager our server had no clue who it was she said maybe it was the bartender...she was beyond clueless...there was maybe 4 tables in there so it wasn't because it was busy that we got such bad service....we will wait a few months and try it again but who knows read more

Hands down my favorite 'hidden' gem. The store front sits next to Dunkin Donuts across from Walmart. We spotted it one day during a grocery pick up and tried it for supper. Wow! Opted for something simple, a Caesar salad, with a twist, topped with Ahi tuna! I DREAM OF THIS SIMPLE DISH WEEKLY. I've also had some of their pasta dishes, delish! My husband has tried their burgers and the chicken, bacon, ranch on sourdough; he loved them all. We've had the pretzel and calamari appitizers. Everything has been great, prices are fair as well. The staff is wonderful, truly down to earth people with actual personalities. They enjoy getting to know their regulars and make the over all dining experience fun. read more

Always get a delicious meal here! Bummed they got rid of their awesome poutine. But still a great local place to have dinner. Staff is always wonderful too! read more

We eat here often. Food is always great. Super friendly attentive staff. Really relaxed environment.

I'll start with the taste of the food is very delicious they cook it just right and it's probably the best steak I've ever had locally. The prices are somewhat steep but the food is very good the portions are decent size depending on what you get they may even be very big size so it goes from decent to big it is also like a bar and grill so you I guess you could do that there I didn't participate in that part but they have very nice booths and the wait staff was friendly and all of that but went there and got one meal each with two people and one appetizer a lemonade and a iced tea and the price was over $100. So it can be a little costly so be prepared for that if you go there but the food is worth it and I would go there early evening to daytime because they do get crowded cuz a lot of people like them. read more

When my friend and I walked in it was nice seating, very comfy and nice aroma. We got the fried mozzarella sticks... they were good but luke warm. 10/10 cheese stretch. My friend got a cheese steak sandwich, no grinder roll! She was upset. Meat was meaty and french fries were good. Pickle had lettuce stuck to it so she felt yucky. (she doesn't eat lettuce) Then we get to the mac and cheese. It was smelly and didn't have the best taste. Would I recommend Grill For Forty-Five...??? maybe. Have a good day! bai (P.S left my mac & cheese at the table. If anyone wants it you can have it) read more

Birthday dinner. Everything was fresh and tasty. Even my kids enjoyed their dinner. Would highly recommend the beer flight.

Met a friend for dinner here last night. At 5:45 the place was on the full side. We had a reservation, as it appeared did most people who were coming in. Our seating was on the bench section near the entrance and host stand. This meant cold breezes when the doors opened and frosty looks from the hosts as we chatted after paying. At the time the restaurant was more than half empty. Food was okay. I had the one of the specials, a chicken stir-fry. The vegetables seemed to have barely touched the pan. Flavor was okay, but I've had better chicken stir-fry at a Greek pizza restaurant closer to home. My friend had an order of six wings and a side Caesar salad. My friend enjoyed the crispiness of the wings. The salad had a good amount of shaved Parmesan cheese but, it wasn't anything spectacular. I would say the pricing here is a bit on the high side for the quantity and quality. My meal was $27. My friends' was $22. No drinks other than water. The parking situation in this plaza is such that there is more parking behind the building than in front. Other businesses in the plaza: Dunkin' Donuts and Cricket Wireless. I didn't see signs directing to the two adjacent parking areas behind the building. Signs may exist but, not prominent enough to notice. Grill 445 has a small bar area that one sees from the front windows while walking up to the door. Note, the exterior door is either heavy or impacted by unbalanced/uneven air pressure in the foyer and may be difficult for some individuals to open. read more

We went there for the first time tonight! My daughter has a dairy allergy and they made chicken tenders she could eat! Usually she has to settle for grilled chicken but the waitress and cook found a way for her to have chicken tenders and fries dairy free! Totally made her day! We will definitely go back! read more

Good drinks, burger was pretty good. My party all ordered medium rare but we all got different levels. Some were medium, some were well and some were just rare. Overall the ambiance and service was very good. Although my burger was cooked wrong it was still good, just a little too greasy. Overall not a bad place to stop for a bite read more

We had an awesome lunch here today! Staff was friendly and attentive. We started with the Calamari as an appetizer. It was cooked perfectly. The Cider punch (pictured) was perfect for this gray, chilly day. We then split the 445 Burger & the Fish & Chips. They were both excellent! Fish was light and flaky over thick cut, almost curled French fries. The hamburger was cooked perfectly, and came with a side of those yummy curled fries. We HAD to have dessert. We ordered the chocolate cake (pictured). It was delicious because it was not overly sweet. We would definitely come back again. We highly recommend it. read more

First time taking out and wish I had the time to eat in. This place is very cool and gives great vibes. I mistakenly ordered nachos which don't travel well, just by its nature. The flavors were spot on, though. I will definitely go back for a proper sit down meal. read more

I honestly was shocked reading these reviews because my sons father said this place was delicious and literally everything we ordered was sooo good! We came in around 5 pm on a Saturday evening and there was a good amount of people in here. Most were seated at tables but the bar began filling up as the night went on! I noticed everyone had a tropical looking drink in front of them that looked AMAZING. I'm not a big drinker but it was at at least 3-4 tables so I knew it had to be good! My sons father ordered it and it was AMAZING/ I got a frozen strawberry daiquiri; which was delicious! However not sure if there was any liquor in it (and this is coming from someone who doesn't even like the taste of liquor so for me to think it was noticeably absent was a bit disconcerting. We were instantly seated by the hostess and Carrie came over within minutes & she was great! Friendly, inviting and FUNNY- as well as honest AF. We ordered quite a bit: shrimp cockail, appetizer sampler & I had the filet my son had some of mine. The filet was a little too bloody for medium so I had to send it back but within 5 minutes it was out and perfect! Everything was delicious, Carrie was fabulous. I highly recommend giving it a try and ordering something off their drink menu because "The hurricane" which was the tropical orange/yellow drink that everyone was drinking was fabulous!!! I also liked the decor, ambiance and vibe- very nice. Their fried cauliflower app was AMAZING as well!! The filet was also SOOOO good. I will definitely return! Only con I could think of was the location- it was at th end of a strip mall in a random spot across from Walmart. So not sure what is going on with all the negative reviews but the food we had was great and the service was just as amazing :) thanks Carrie read more

Came here last night after catering a wedding in the next town over. We sat at the bar, and had a burger for dinner. There were 2 bartenders, one of which was his first night training. Unfortunately, we forgot their names, but the female we started off with was great, until we never saw her again for the rest of our stay. The gentlemen trainee kept us occupied the rest of the time there. So, being in the business, we totally understand how busy and crazy it can get when you first open. They were in their third week. This is my only concern, or I would have given this place 5 stars. The trainer should never leave her trainee's side. The bar was full, so I give some leeway. However, she should have at least came by one more time whether it was to check and see how her trainee was doing, tell us bye, thank you, what have you. She should have been the one to tell us that food is taking longer than usual (40-minutes). There was one instance where food came out to the people sitting next to us. The person who brought out the food didn't know where to go, and almost walked back to the kitchen 3 times with the food. While the female bartender was nowhere around. One advise. If you don't know the answer to a question, excuse yourself politely and let the guest know that you will find out the *correct answer for them. 4.5 star for the evening. read more

Came in on a Saturday afternoon with a group of 6 of us. Took a few minutes to seat us but wasn't bad. Our server Sam was great. I ordered the French onion soup. Came out nice and hot and tasted good. I then had a 1/2 rack of ribs. It was ok. Little wet and a lot of BBQ sauce. Fries and coleslaw were good. Everyone in the party enjoyed their food. One person orders a burger well done but it came out medium at best. The waiter ended comping the burger. All in all it was good. 3.5 out 5. read more

Overpriced. The steak per dollar ratio is really bad. Also the servings are small. The service is bad

Always like this place. But either my wife and I are going at bad times or they are just never busy. It's st Paddy's day weekend and there is literally no one here. I know it's a Greek style restaurant but they are losing many customers by not doing something special to bring in some of that cliental. It's like saying I don't believe in love so we don't believe in Valentine's Day specials. It's also not good for the staff as they seem bitter and put out bad vibes. We haven't been in a while so disappointing the menu does not seem to ever change. read more

When they first opened it took us forty five minutes to get a cheese burger employees we're barely working. To busy chatting with co workers

Opening day which is always hit or miss; especially at lunchtime you've got to be a risk taker - I am. Everything seems to be working and service was prompt. Excellent varied beer selection with 24 taps. My lovely spouse and I ordered the nachos sans jalapeño, summer salad with chicken, and the veal pastrami (on freakin' NAAN bread no less). Nachos were good. I mean it's hard to screw up nachos, but thankfully the order was correct - sans jalapeños! Nachos were baked not nuked so slightly crisp and not soggy. Entrees arrived quickly but not so quick the appetizer was still there. Very good timing on server "B's" part. One of the managers (owners?) also checked which is always appreciated. Entrees looked wonderful and hot the way they should be. Fries were an interesting wedge-type that was flash fried so the insides puffed up. Grilled chicken on salad was moist, presentation was nice, nice mix of goodies like goat cheese, strawberry, etc. a real treat. The veal pastrami made me want to shout to the sky "where have you been all my life?" Dessert menu - which is not my strong suit - has creme brûlée, cheesecake, several others and a gluten-free option. All in all a good new option in the "quiet corner" read more

Atmosphere is good. Food is terrible. Taste and looks like microwaved frozen Sysco Systems food. Just stick with the greek pizza joints in the area. Wait staff was also good. I'll go back for a beer, never food. read more

Our first trip was awesome. Our second trip was freaking PHENOMENAL!!! Marisa is a fabulous bartender and hospitality professional. Jay and Bubba came out to talk to us and discuss great breweries in the area while we enjoyed our drinks. We felt so at home and welcome here. When they found out it was my birthday, bubba secretly asked for us to receive a delicious off the menu pastry that was amazing. We truly felt like family. Will be back numerous times! read more

This was our first time here. The food was actually fine. The service was not. 3 or 4 waitresses and hostess sat in a booth for an hr talking and looking at their phones. Our waitress needs a few more years of training. She brought the check without asking if we wanted dessert or coffee. When we ordered both the female bartender appeared at our table to inform us that they couldn't possibly make more coffee as the coffee had been finished and they would have to start a new pot. And besides they close the kitchen at 9. unbelievable. It was just turning 9 and there were several tables full and the bar was full. It seemed they were in a hurry to clock out asap. Clearly the staff needs more supervision. Not returning. read more

I came here with my husband for lunch, today . The decor is upscale with a black and gray color scheme. The bar to your left is long and beautiful. The dining room is separate from the bar and has roomy comfortable booths by large windows. Small tables and chairs are in the center They play soft jazz and easy listening music that is perfect for lunch. We were waited on quickly Service was relaxed My husband ordered a BLT hamburger and I had the impossible burger . My husband had a side salad and I had onion rings, one coke and one water. The bill was @ $36.00 plus a $ 7.00 tip. I liked the place I loved the atmosphere and ambiance. The food was well prepared and the server friendly. We'll be back. We are very lucky to have this type of restaurant in Brooklyn on Rt. 6 read more

What a great find. Here in the middle no where is this great restaurant they have a great selection of beef cuts seafood to die for and pasta dishes Another reason we love coming here is Patty and Alyssa who are Supper they make the dinning experience over the top. I will miss them as we are heading back to California soon thank you For the great meals as me conversation read more

Save yourself the trip... taste like it's all off the Sysco truck. Had the Greek salad... chicken is chewy, pretty sure it would bounce if i threw it on the ground. All the Kalamata olives STILL had pits in them... my tooth thanks them for almost breaking in half. Feta cheese... worst cheap feta of my life. The cucumber was dripping In lime juice Wayyy to much.. salad should not be sour. We also tried the cheese steak.. the fries tasted freezer burn(keep them in the fryer longer guys) you can tell nothing is actually fresh here. The summer sips drink asked for extra strawberries and that also didn't happen. I think the best thing about this place is the decor and pasta straws they offer as an alternative to the plastic ones The waitress was very nice. We won't come back for food or the bar Epic fail with still full plates being left behind read more

Me and my husband came for a late lunch and were seated right away. Our server was nice and made sure we were well taken care of. We started with the general tsos cauliflower, which was delicious! Then I got the truffle burger with fries and my husband got the buffalo burger with sweet potato fries. It was all delicious! The fries are uniquely shaped and crispy. We ordered the Creme brûlée for dessert and that was good as well. Lots of drink choices & a big menu, would recommend! read more

For starters let me just say that the inside is absolutely beautiful and the wait staff was phenomenal. In total it was $55 for 2 people. Somewhat pricey but i did receive a fair amount of food for what i ordered (obviously cannot speak for the whole menu). The 445 burger was standard. Far from a bad burger but it wasn't anything i haven't had before. Fries were delicious. read more

Very good food!! For a newer restaurant, they do a great job!! Their stuffed clams are the best I've had (if they have them in the Appetizer menu!! Also, they carry Wachusett Blueberry Ale on tap when it's in season, served with fresh blueberries in the glass!! Their poutine dish is outstanding!! read more

We came in to dine and the service and food were both pretty good. My rigatoni came with penne pasta, but it's not really a big deal... Glad to see that the business survived COVID and hope to stop by again soon. read more

Went for dinner with my husband and was surprised with how busy it was on a weekday. We sat inside in a booth and unfortunately no waitress was informed so we sat for quite awhile before anyone came. When one finally came she apologized for the confusion and took our order. My husband got fish tacos which he absolutely loved. They were very fresh and had great toppings. I got shrimp scampi and it was good but not great. Kind of bland and the shrimp were over cooked. The menu has a lot of great items so we'll definitely be back for another try. read more

I'm guessing the reviews were low due to just opening. Give this place a try. My husband and I were extremely impressed. We were seated quickly and served quickly . I had a margarita flight to start and we shared the poutine. First, the fact that they had a margarita flight was impressive. It always seems to be just beer. The appetizer poutine was so good we brought it home just to have our adult children try it! My hubby had the special fried chicken and waffles.. so so good !! I had the chicken piccata. This was very good as well . Soo much chicken in the dish ! Cool atmosphere as well .. I hope all the nay sayers give this place another try now that the kinks are worked out !! We will be back ! read more
