Try adding the following lines to /etc/default/grub, then running 
"update-grub" as root.

GRUB_GFXMODE=1920x1080,800x600
GRUB_GFXPAYLOAD_LINUX=keep

The first line will tell Grub to try your preferred resolution and, if 
not available, fallback to 800x600. Note that GRUB can only use VESA VBE 
modes which your graphics card claims to support. For laptop users, this 
usually means that widescreen modes are not available, but 1920x1080 
might be available to you.

The second line tells grub to keep the same video mode when booting 
Linux (that is, you'll get a high-resolution console until Linux has 
booted enough to take over).
