Omg ok let me organize my thoughts because this brunch experience blew my mind!!!…read more I live fairly close to two silos, and I always really enjoy my time there. I have been there several times before they started expanding and I remember seeing the signs go up and the excitement of what would come next. Fast forward several months maybe even a year and my friend suggested we go to brunch at this new spot called proof kitchen. It didn't occur to me until yelping that this was one of the new additions to the two silos (villagio group) kingdom! The second I found out that I would get the chance to finally try out this spot. Any other options that were on the table were immediately thrown out and we decided to go here. The menu looked really impressive and let me tell you the menu itself was not nearly as impressive as what was presented to us when we ordered, and our food arrived. It was really hard to pick an option... I was really impressed because quite a few of the options I've never even heard of before or thought of. For example, the crab Rangoon dip was so great. Just the right amount of sweetness and a bunch of lump crab meat. I love how they want above and beyond, even just with the wonton chips. The server was incredible and he brought over more chips for us without us even asking, and I don't recall any additional surcharge. We were here to celebrate my girlfriend's upcoming wedding and got to open her save the dates! The brunch was perfect. The grill time was lovely and the food was spectacular. The beverages were really delicious too! My friend ordered a flatbread that came with eggs. My other friend ordered the pancake with the berries that I almost ordered. When her pancake came out, we were all absolutely floored at the presentation! Firstly, the pancake was extremely thin, full of flavor and covered in delicious fresh berries. It took up the whole plate!! fortunately, I didn't also order that because I ended up being able to eat several bites of it to help my friend finish her meal. Portion sizes are very generous!! which we love in this economy... we also ordered the fry trio, which was so elevated in the most simple and flavorful way you absolutely must order this. I ended up just ordering the side of mac & cheese that was really gooey and flavorful which to me are the two main components of a good mac & cheese. Overall, we all agreed that we must come back. The food was lovely service was truly top-notch and the restaurant itself was beautiful New and modern. It was cool to be able to walk through and then also check out the distillery next-door and the merch!

I like going to Proof for the ambiance, service and drinks. After visiting a few times, I have…read moretried quite a few dishes, desserts and drinks. At times that I feel that the dish is too salty or desserts too decadent, I think the kitchen is having a bad day. Now that I have given some space between visits, it is without a doubt that their chef has a heavy hand on the salt shaker. Not just one, but ALL of the dishes. It can be almost unedible and must be taken with lots of water. Why is this? To hide the spoiled meat? To make you thirsty to order more drinks? I am going to stick to drinks next time since it costs so much per menu item and I value my money to parallel what I buy. + staff + drinks + parking ++ ambiance

Omg so many thoughts on this experience…read more I'm so glad i didn't immediately know it was a restaurant located in a hotel. This prob would have deterred me, even a little bit. The Apple map directions here confused me a little due to this, but parking was really plentiful so that's a huge plus! I went on a Sunday morning and lo and behold there was a hole farmers market or pop up set up all through haymarket! Busy weekend for a brunch but haymarket is SUCH a cute little vibe and town with so many hidden gems, like this one!! Literally every single item I saw waiters bring out from the kitchen looked so scrumptious, every person around us immediately began digging in and enjoying their meals...and honestly, no crumbs were left behind pretty much every time. We started ordering a yummy cocktail. I was really in the mood for the Paloma with grapefruit juice but sadly they were out of grapefruit juice fortunately, they had plenty cocktails available that were not explicitly on the menu! I ended up having a delicious espresso martini, prepared, right and honestly, I would have had another!! Not too sweet. Not creamy. And with 3 beans. Impeccable no notes. I ordered the red House breakfast. Man those home potatoes were so delicious....they clearly cooked them seasoned deliciously and then flash fried, so crunchy!!!! Amazing. I found that their execution on their meals was really impressive. My sunny side up eggs were cooked perfectly and paired so yummy with the toast. The bacon had delicious flavor too. I ordered a biscuit because I had heard that their biscuits were really yummy but unfortunately they did not have their bacon biscuit so it was just a classic biscuit. It was good, certainly dense and clearly homemade. My girlfriend got the poutine. Looked so delicious and was really enjoyed! The gravy was thick and flavorful! We sat down and enjoyed plenty of conversation and a really nice environment. Nobody rushed us, service was just the right amount of attentive without interrupting conversation constantly, and the floor to ceiling windows let in beautiful natural light and views of the town. It was the perfect brunch spot for a low-key, but delicious meal. Just a hair out of the way without being too far. I came out with a really good friend of mine to celebrate my one year wedding anniversary with her and it was the perfect possible location. Shout out to the staff for being so welcoming and kind, and even taking a picture of us when we asked to commemorate the occasion. I'm sure they are used to people walking in to the hotel lobby looking as confused as I was looking for red House Tavern.

Not the best experience for brunch.

The food was average at best when it came out. Super disappointed. We came here for my mom's 5 year beating cancer anniversary and it wasn't much of a celebration.

Stereotypical decor and menu, Grains and Grog stood painfully empty on a Saturday afternoon playing music nostalgic to anyone who graduated high school before 2010. I ordered a Manhattan. Hallway through, looking down at the bottom of the glass, I saw two tiny flies floating at the bottom. As disgusted as one can reasonably be, I asked for another one to be made (why I bothered, I can't say. Maybe it was because I had already drank half). I found another small fly in the second before the server left the table. Another fly in the third as well. We didn't finish our meals for obvious reasons. They brought us the check, discounted the manhattans and 50% the check, though I didn't feel I should have paid anything. After paying the check, they said it was a mistake. They brought us the wrong one and would void the sale. The "correct" check they brought us was the full meal sans the 3 botched manhattans. We won't be going back

I ordered the spicy margarita, and not only was the presentation gorgeous, but it was genuinely delicious -- the perfect balance of heat and flavor without being overpowering. The only downside was the noise level; it was a bit louder than expected for the space. Still, it didn't take away from the overall experience enough to keep me from coming back. All in all, a solid spot with great energy, tasty drinks, and staff who make you feel taken care of. I'd definitely return!

Karaoke night with a live band playing along -- the band actually pulled people into the show instead of it being just a machine in the corner. Food was perfect. We had the beer-battered onion rings and the Bavarian pretzel. Both worth ordering. The only downside was how you order and close out. Everything is electronic / self-pour. I couldn't figure out the system and had to get staff to help me order and pay. They handled it with no attitude, but if you're not used to tap cards it can throw you. We'll be back for the food, the staff, and that live-band. Check it out if you're in town.

I liked that you could request music to be played but you did have to download an app and sign up for it. The music was also uncomfortably quiet. Like hard to hear even though it wasn't loud in there. After sitting down we immediately ordered the bacon cheese fries. I love the self serve because I got to try a few things, I also love that there were a lot of non beer options! I originally got a cocktail at the bar which the bartender made because I love watermelon schnapps and it was well priced. Next I tried the pineapple cider and it was delicious. Me and my sister also got some green tea shots from the wall which were delicious. We also tried the walls blue Hawaiian which was good but I'd prefer it over ice. After almost an hour of waiting for our food we got nervous it wasn't coming so I went and asked at the bar. As the girl was checking, they came out.
