The restaurant was cozy and had subdued lighting. The sandwich had a lot of meat which tasted great and was very tender. The Swiss and the sauce was very good. The sandwich was very juicy, but not runny or sloppy. The bread was much darker than the marbled rye that I expected, but it suited the sandwich well. Our server was extraordinarily considerate, bringing refills before asking and letting me substitute onion rings instead of fries. I definitely recommend the Ground Round for someone looking for a good Reuben.
