Trader Jack's Riverside Grille

I stopped in for lunch today with a friend.I've been past this place many times but never stopped and I'm glad I did. The restaurant sets right on the grand river in Eastlake. So the view was great and a nice cool breeze blows off the river. I ordered a burger with blue cheese and sautéed mushrooms. Food came out quickly, and the burger was big and meaty full of blue cheese and mushroom goodness. I always asked for Krispy french fries and when they came out with my burger, they were actually crispy and tasted really good. This is a great place to sit outside with friends have a bite and enjoy some drinks especially in the summertime. Our server was very attentive as well and made sure we had everything that we needed.

I went here for lunch with my husband. The food was so delicious, the service was nice, and I loved that we were right by the river. The amount of food you got was giant portions too. I will definitely be back to check out the outdoor patio when it opens in the summer

Arrive for lunch on a Saturday... Restaurant minimally to moderately crowded. Sunny day I just rained. Hostess seated us in the bar area and we requested to be in the outside area under the umbrella, which she complied withServer was congenial and attentive. She returned after five minutes to inquire about the meal. Proper server etiquette was trained as a server in my lifetime so I know thisThe meal that I chose was something that everyone raved about however, mine came different. There was very little top browning and very little butter, garlic sauce. The baked potato was delicious. The vegetables were delicious. The roll was delicious. I was truly disappointed in the main fish entree however I decided not to send it back.Felt gypped, but then there is this review and it does bring out the inconsistency and how people are being servedAtmosphere Pleasant and casual many flowers and a lovely view of the river

Fun spot for an incredible dinner and drinks ! TVs and a pretty view of the water . Our waiter was so kind , funny , and helpful . I ordered a cup of lobster bisque, cheeseburger , and side of Mac . The whole meal was excellent! Bisque was creamy and flavorful. Burger was perfectly cooked. Mac was cheesy and decadent .

Trader Jack's serves as an absolute delight and hot spot for locals and out of towners in the area. They have been consistent in both their service and food quality, and they deserve to be in the top restaurants in the state of Ohio, especially up in the northeast. The food is outstanding; we have been coming for a couple years now, trying different specials, drinks, and menu items you will not regret. The staff are also very friendly as they maintain a warm, inviting ambiance and an outstandingly clean restaurant. When it comes to the food, I highly recommend the Nashville hot chicken sandwich, because I have never had anything like it or even comparable since eating it at Trader Jack's. The spinach and artichoke dip is also in our top five menu items as well as the well-balanced cocktails they serve regularly and seasonally. The patio is wonderful to sit in during any season, and the view of the river helps to boost the restaurant's appeal. We love this restaurant and everything it has to offer. I cannot recommend this place enough.

A great place to go for dinner AND a view. A hidden gem in ohio and has a fun menu. However, they did seem understaffed. Worth the wait time when the weather is nice lol Fun bar areas, inside and outside.

Great food! Great service! Recommend prime rib, burgers, chicken club, white cheddar mac and cheese!

Good food, fast service. Waiter had good knowledge about the menu.We will come back.

loud, expensive, cod sandwich had no taste. bill for two people $75 plus tip! Waitress was really good, attentive and friendly.

Food and atmosphere is amazing. Try the stuffed peppers, were amazing. The best I've ever had
