Attractive, well put together American gastro pub. Outdoor seating provides an "urban" vibe. Burgers, while not amazing, were very good; salads were fresh, with flavorful dressing on the side. Service was friendly, efficient and very professional. Overall pretty much everything one can expect of this style of establishment. Will return when in the area. read more

Yes! Go! Stopped in for dinner with a client. We enjoyed the relaxed service and pace Shared apps. And had a great dinner. A cool casual spot with a great menu read more

What can I say? Location is wonderful... heart of Lafayette old town, gorgeous building and the ambiance is perfect. The interior is so stylish yet very welcoming. The service was impeccable. We were seated quickly by the window, our server was so nice, informative and didn't miss a thing. The food was so good. Everything we saw was prepared nicely, and really made it difficult to decide. However, we went with the ribs and fish tacos... excellent. We also had a side Caesar Salad which was fresh and a delicious homemade dressing. Honestly, it could not have been better. Highly recommend. read more

Bright contemporary space with an elevated bistro type menu. Something for everyone, very fresh and healthy in the main. Friendly staff, diverse beverage selections (we had a couple great cocktails and the wine by the glass selection was good). Good portions all around, reasonably priced. The burrata salad with peaches and sour cherries was a stand out. The watermelon, feta and arugula salad was large; and while they offered any of their dressings on it-- I'd be selective in going with a vinaigrette over say ranch or 1000 island. Soup of the day was bean with ham. Breads that came with the salads were top notch. The ahi tuna won tons were generously portioned add the Kalamata olives added a surprising pop. Street parking was easy on a Thursday lunch time. Highly recommended. read more

We came in on our way to CIN. We sat outside and the service and staff were amazing. We ordered our soda's and then decided to split the BLT and an order of the truffle fires. The BLT was great! lots of crispy bacon. The truffle fries were wimpy. there were a few crispy ones but totally disappointing. We mentioned it to our server who graciously brought us another order. It was slightly better. But way too soft. They said they were double fried, but they didn't taste like it. Not planning to return. read more

East End Grill was excellent! We were promptly seated at the time of our reservation and had excellent service throughout our meal. Very clean and modern feel, but I wouldn't say cozy. They have a small sidewalk patio for outdoor dining. We each had a cocktail, and entree, and we shared the roasted cauliflower appetizer. This appetizer was excellent. We asked for the harissa on the side but I would just go ahead and have it on the dish next time. I had the hanger steak and I'll be dreaming of that cowboy butter for a long time. That was so good! My steak was perfectly cooked and I enjoyed the roasted potatoes on the side. I'd like to visit EEG next time I'm in town and I highly recommend you do too!! read more

Wow!! We called ahead because we wanted to make sure they could accommodate a late arrival. The staff was friendly and helpful. They said, "come in! We are happy to have you." The bartender, Austin, was on it! He made us amazing drinks, welcomed us, and made us feel at home, right away!!! We were traveling all weekend and ending up here felt like such a wonderful gift. I would highly recommend this place! Brandon, the manager, was also so helpful. They ran out of the ingredients for what we ordered and he did everything he could to make us happy. This place is customer first!! Well done east end grill! If you are in town and want a great experience - go here!!!! read more

Brought my parents in for dinner and we ate at the bar. Austin was an excellent server and took great care of us. I had the Spinach & Candied Bacon Salad (added avocado and shrimp); it was really good and the avocado added a great juxtaposition of texture against the candied bacon and crispy chickpeas. My dad ordered the Flank Steak Tacos and liked them, but my mom couldn't stop raving about her Mushroom Ragu! We had such a great time we came in the following night for a nightcap of the Amarula Ethiopian Coffee Cream Liqueur that was on the dessert menu. Definitely the right choice. It was dangerously good and you could get in some real trouble sipping on that deliciousness. read more

We came on a Thursday evening after a campus tour and this seemed to be a good option for dinner. We ordered the wagyu burger, flank steak tacos and the flatbread with prosciutto as appetizer. Service was great and our waitress was very nice. The flatbread was average in flavor, the tacos were very good and the burger was tasty and delicious. We dined at the patio and they had music which made our night out great. Loved it read more

Went here for lunch had an amazing chicken pesto sandwich and a side salad. Sat at the bar. The bartenders were fantastic and the atmosphere was great. Can't wait to go back and try something else on the menu. read more

A few months ago we were here and had a really really top notch meal. We were heading back home from Chicago thru Lafayette and decided to stop by. Well the menu had changed considerably. No meat and cheese tray and no salmon. Decided to try the salmon burger and got a Caesar Salad. The salad this time was served on the side of the plate with the salmon burger. It was not as big as previous visit. The salmon burger was way too soft and squishy and barely warm and really lacked flavor. Very disappointed. Husband said his hamburger was ok. His salad was also served on the plate with the burger. Went away just underwhelmed today. Service was good and our drinks were kept filled. read more

Always great food and service at East End Grill! I wish I remembered our servers name because she was the sweetest and just had the perfect timing to stop by the table and check on us. Food was excellent as always. Stone fruit burrata was so amazing we ordered a second one for the table. I could have had a plate to myself for dinner! But I got the halibut and it was 5 stars delicious. Everything we ordered was so delicious and presentation was lovely. We discovered East End Grill my daughter's freshman year at Purdue and have been going back ever since. We love this place! read more

One of the best restaurants in greater Lafayette. Order anything and it will be absolutely delicious!! Prime valley wagyu burger and flank steak tacos are stellar. Always super busy, definitely get a reservation if you're in a larger party (4+) or if it's a special occasion. It's a good location. read more

Had some business up in Lafayette this evening and found this gem in a quaint neighborhood thanks to Grok. The place was packed but we found a couple seats at the bar and Alicia was on point with a bubbly attitude, recommendations and service! Note, for being completely packed, the noise level was moderate, surprisingly! We loved that! We started with the truffle fries, sadly no picture. But a huge basket of hand cut, double fried potatoes, covered with Parmesan cheese and herbs. The truffle aioli was so good. There are enough fries for 4 people! My gf went with the hanger steak with chimichurri sauce along with roasted fingerling potatoes, snow peas and cherry tomatoes. I decided to try the pan seared duck breast with glazed carrots and cauliflower puree. Both were amazing, everything seasoned just right and cooked perfectly. If I had one critique, it would be the plating of the vegetables on my gf's plate, they looked to just be tossed onto the plate at last minute. They were still delicious though! We topped off the fabulous meal with a coconut cake with pineapple filling. We will be back. read more

Another great night at East End Grill! Our server was Michael. He really knew his stuff! Made great suggestions and really knows the menu. We all orders something different and shared. While we felt that the cheesy grits and the Cole slaw were bland (optional sides), all the entrees were phenomenal. Don't miss out on this Lafayette gem! read more

If you only have an hour and need a quick GOOD lunch then come to east end. Ask to sit at the bar and you will be taken care of! Their burgers are fantastic and the French fries are some of the best in town. Try them truffle, or get the side salad instead which is really great! Haven't had a bad meal yet, and for dinner the filet is the way to go. Better than most of the steak houses in town. read more

Nice restaurant and good food. Ambience is very and welcoming but on the loud side. Service is very good and special shout out to Kristi. We had the ribs, flat bread and spinach bacon salad. The reason for lower stars was full rack ribs arrived not even warm and had to taken back to be heated. The ribs were very good but mine were a little dry. Another at the table got the half rack and there's was hot and juicy. I thought the flat bread was good but it needed something more to pull it up. We will return and try the burgers next. read more

So, continuing on In Lafayette, Indiana lunch for the day was an outstanding spot. Make sure you make a reservation this place gets packed. Everything looked so good but after eating an entire scone earlier I thought lets go lite. Well this wasn't true at all. This bacon, lettuce, tomato sandwich came out with a huge side of fresh cut fries.. I also opted for extra bacon which wasn't needed but oh well. These fries were so good crunchy on the outside and soft inside, needless to say I left so full. I must also let you know the taco's looked so good, but this will be for next time. read more

Really enjoyed the food. The service was ok- have had better at previous experiences here. Not crazy about the table layout. We were seated by the door and it was rather cold outside. So every time the door opened we would get cold air on us. Food and drinks were excellent though. read more

I went to Purdue University for a campus recruiting event for my company. I asked one of my co-workers that just graduated from Purdue her recommendations and she steered me to East End Grill! I walked and the place was packed! The restaurant was really nice inside and the patrons were all having a good time with the food and conversations. Since I was solo, I sat at the bar. I placed my order for takeout but decided to stay and the bartender quickly changed my order and set my area up at the bar w/ utensils. I ordered the falafel dinner and house truffle fries. The dinner had 3 falafel pieces which were flat versus the traditional round shape. it came in in a bed of hummus and drizzled with a garlic sauce. It came with grilled pita triangles which had a perfect char taste. The falafel was coked nicely and had a soft texture on the inside and crisp on the outside. The flavors were traditional. Let's talk about the truffle fries which can be risky. This was a shareable but if I was with others, I don't think I would share! They were so good with the right amount of truffle and cooked nicely. The price I paid for both was approx. $25 and was well worth it!!! Anytime you are in Purdue make your way to the East End Grill and be sure you order the fries!!!! You will not want to share it!!! read more

Stopped on the way to Chicago. From the reviews I knew I wanted to try the shrimp and grits. It was very good. But tried my husband's pastrami sandwich with fries and liked it as well ...if not more. We shared a cup of soup which was delicious. Decor and service both great. Recommend this place. Kristy was a attentive server. read more

Loved the vibe of East End Grill. I was in town with my 16 year old daughter for a volleyball tournament and I let her choose our dinner spot on a Friday evening. We had a short 20-minute or so wait for our table, which was no problem as we took a short walk around the neighborhood. She ordered the cheeseburger and had asparagus ($2 upcharge) for her side. I had a 12 oz pork chop covered in a peach BBQ sauce. Sides were fingerling potatoes and grilled green beans. Wonderful meal. The drink menu looked interesting, but since I was there with my daughter, took a pass on it that night. I look forward to returning! read more

Pretty much every restaurant in town close at 9, East End Grill is one of the few that close at 10. Upscale restaurant with upscale prices. Reason I said that is because I only order Chicken puff pastry which is a fancy alternative of Chicken pot pie. It was $24. Taste no difference than the one from KFC, the puff pastry is better here. The tab ran up pretty quick with a house salad and a drink. read more

delayed our reservation 30 min. obnoxious manager. food was fine but overpriced. I will not return.

First time here. Ambience was great. Service also great. Had the shrimp and grits. Later that night I was sick as hell. I should have called them the next day but was too worn out to even deal with it. Such a bummer. The 2 stars are for our server who was great. read more

Had a wonderful cocktail and burger here! Loved the vibes and aesthetic of the place, and the fact that they offer so many locally sourced options. The cherry limeade cocktail, pictured, was tart and tangy and sweet--just the right combo. The burger was classic and tasty and a good sized portion. I was happy with the pricing and the service as well. Street parking on this street and the surrounding block is easy and lots in the downtown area to check out after you've eaten! read more

Got the steak frites with truffle fries. First of all I like the look of the dish presentation, but by the time I eat half of my fries it becomes hard to dig through the rest of it. The truffle fries were delicious at the first few bites, but when you eat more the greasy feeling of the truffle oil is a little too much. Asked for the steak to be cooked medium, it has been done well, but I'll say 6oz is a small portion. Overall the service was friendly and nice. read more

Everything is excellent! I agree with others that this is the best steak house in town. Must try and don't miss it. Service was prompt and good! Love the ambiance, it's lively but not too loud. We can still carry out our normal conversation without yelling at each other. If you're visiting Purdue University, must stop by. However, reservation is highly recommended. read more

Our service has always been fantastic with the staff ready to answer questions and give recommendations that we have always found helpful.

We have nothing but the best dining experiences here and highly recommend, it is a bit pricey for dinner, but it's worth it!! read more
