We walked in 19 minutes before opening and was met with a stern "we're not open yet." Why not seat us & welcome us in? She obviously doesn't own the restaurant nor needs a tip... We'll pass on this one. read more

An overview: The food is basic at best... for the price you could get much better food almost anywhere else. Service is consistently bad even if uncrowded - (the servers themselves do their best, just seemed like bad management?) - Bar tenders were very rude too. The worst thing about this place is the owner, who seems not to care about the locals in Lakeside, as Harbor Grille has been blasting horrible "music" every Saturday night lately, until the early morning hours! like my own, there are many young families in the area and I'm sure I am not alone in saying that being kept up all night every weekend is NOT appreciated!!! Very disappointing and inconsiderate, that the owner would cater to the tourist partiers at the expense of Lakeside's residents. If you care about such things, (or about something as basic as being allowed to get enough sleep before work the next morning) do NOT give this place your business! Sorry for the bad review but the noise from last night's rave at your establishment was just ridiculous. (seriously, my windows were rattling! - which I would have liked to have been able to keep open considering it was such a hot night) read more

Only Okay... Unfortunately the food had good flavor but the service was less than steller. When orderd the food came out fairly slow but they were busy so I will give them the benefit of doubt. But unfortuntly the food was cold and they where out of baked potatoes within 30 mins of when they officially started serving them for dinner. Oh and refills... What refill they did not fill are glasses intill we went out of our way and asked the passing hostess. Probably won't eat here again which is unfortunate because it is a great spot with a great view and the meal was flavorful but cold is unacceptable in my opinion. read more

This is the best new restaurant on Flathead Lake! The space has been completely remodeled with reclaimed wood from the old marina. With large sliding glass doors and a generous patio the views of the lake and mountains is spectacular. Several slips are available, so you can drive up or boat up. The menu is casual dining with great seafood and burger items that you would expect to be served waterside. They have a fully stocked bar and a decent wine list that matches the menu. My favorite so far is the crab cakes, meaty and flavorful. Given the fact that they just opened the new space with all new staff leading into peak season I think they have done great job. Look forward to more good times on the lake! read more

Beautiful view of the mountains and the lake. Friendly servers and fast service. Basic menu and the ahi tuna and burgers were very good. Nice new porch and many big screen tv's. Plenty of seating outdoors on the new deck. We have been coming to this location for decades and this is by far the best incarnation of this space. read more

I felt compelled to leave a review because this was our last meal of our family vacation, and we all felt sick afterward. The view is great, and service was decent, but the food was sub-par, barely edible and obviously came from a freezer. Also, there are no vegan/vegetarian or gluten-free options on the menu. We had a burger, 2 orders of fish and chips, and a salad. We also got calamari as an appetizer, and it was NOT cooked. Worst of all, we ALL felt very sick after our meal. read more

We were driving through there on the way to Whitefish at 8:30 pm but our whole family was starved. This place was fantastic! It had something for ever family member. I'll definitely drive back but next time during the day so that I can enjoy the view. read more

Great restaurant, great food and great service. Bryce was fantastic. Clam chowder was the best we have ever had. Huckleberry Margherita was awesome. Went back a second night and wished we had Bryce as our server. He wasn't as attentive but the food was fantastic. The views there are wonderful. read more

Delicious food! A little pricey, but I think it's because of the view. I think it's worth it to try because the view is amazing

Only stars are for location and drinks, but skip the food. $17 for the saddest excuse of nachos, no meat. The kids tacos were tiny and too spicy for a kid to eat. The waitress took my drink before it was gone and then we waited 20 minutes for our check. Wait service was terrible, but bar service was great. read more

We gave it another go- happy to see changes on menu. However asked to sit outside and was told only for large parties. There were plenty of open tables and at least four with three people at the table-the same size as our party. We ordered the ribs, philly steak, chicken club and pretzel. The philly was nothing more than bread. There was little meat, minimal peppers and very little cheese. The ribs were bland and the chicken sandwich was more bread than sandwich. The server had no personality and was not engaging at all. We are very disappointed in the food and really were hoping for a better experience than last time. We love to support our local community but for $15 sandwiches that were absolutely sub par- I'm afraid we will not be back, nor could we recommend the food to anyone else. If you want an average priced drink and nice view- it's the place to go. read more

The atmosphere and view is amazing! The staff was friendly and attentive. The reason for the three stars is that although the restaurant was not busy, it took a long time to receive our dishes. My daughter did not enjoy her macaroni and cheese for she thought it had way too much cheese and I tend to agree. My son enjoyed his cheeseburger and I shared the chicken club with my mother. Normally chicken clubs could be dry but this was well seasoned with extra (almost too much) sauce. Overall we might return if we are passing through again. read more

Wonderful view and nice atmosphere for more upscale experience but food is just ok - probably best to visit for drinks or an after-dinner dessert. Hamburger was solid but the fish and chips, shrimp tacos, clam chowder and chicken pesto sandwich were all mediocre at best. Flourless chocolate torte with raspberry sauce was good. Service was fine. read more

The view is spectacular The food was satisfactory though my reservation was supposed to be for a window seat and for a birthday event. As I know the help is short handed I will forgive the slow food service. read more

Great food, the doors were open to the evening. The fire pits were roaring. Romance was in the air. We had steak and crab legs yum. Ryan our waiter made us feel at home. Great service, Great food. read more

Harbor Grille is new to Lakeside and it must beat its competition in order to survive. I've eaten here three times and unfortunately the entrees' quality is not as good as the previous meal. Steak sandwich? Bleh. Intially, the ribs were excellent now they're dry. Atmosphere is fantastic, in the winter it will be a little tight. I hope they get their act together. read more

The service was great! The food was fantastic! We really enjoyed lunch on the lake. everything is updated and has a clean luxury feel. Outdoor fire pits and a comfortable space to spend with family and friends. I highly recommend! read more

Absolutely the worst dining experience I have had. Food was bland and sub par. Service was extremely poor. If you want to go somewhere to get drunk and have tasteless food eat here. I usually try and pump up local business but this place needs to go. read more

Great atmosphere, view and staff. Fish part of fish and chips was good. Fries in both orders were limp and without taste. Classic burger was terrible. It was way overcooked, bun was average, lettuce was limp, tomato was average. Honestly, a restaurant like thus should be able to serve a delicious burger. I want this place to have excellent food! read more

Completely over priced. My family made sure to support this place during the worst of the pandemic. Today we ordered three cheeseburgers to go and was charged $51. Nothing special... just burgers to go. Unfortunately the locals that kept this place afloat during a pandemic don't mean shit. My family will not be supporting this business any longer read more

The food was great and the service was awesome. Sitting outside was a little windy at time but the view of the Lake and Mountains was wonderful. read more

Finished a long day of hiking at Glacier N.P. and headed back to Rollins and decided to stop for dinner. Glad we did. It was excellent. Food and service was very good. We sat inside because it was a little cool outside but still had a great view of lake through glass walls. read more

Amazing setting right on Flathead Lake, dockside, wonderful service, great food, fast delivery of food! 5 of us visited 9 days into the grand opening. Very modern, cool seating inside and out on the dock. You can pull your boat up right to the seating area. Good selection of wine and beverages, appetizers and meals. We were all very impressed and enjoyed ourselves. This place is going to be crazy busy as the season goes on. Right on the water in down town Lakeside, Montana. Very awesome fire pit on the dock. Wouldn't hesitate to come here again and bring friends! Very fun environment. Lots of big screen TVs too! The tour ferry boat leaves from this dock too! read more

See all

Great clam chowder, especially in the bread bowl - very filling and priced just right. The fish and chips were delicious too! We had a great time here with friends and will definitely return. You also can't beat the view of the lake! read more

The restaurant in its self is fabulou. Views great of Glacier. But the service is beyond awful. Wait time is in acceptable. Staff appears aloff. Not friendly. Manager greeted us without looking up from his laptop. Probably will not return. Too bad. Location is beautiful read more

Checked in at 4:49 pm. Was told it would be 20-30 min. We were seated in 30. Now 2.5 hours later. No food. Really slow service. Slow. Very, very slow! read more

Combo of food and the location makes this place a solid four! Great fish and chips, good fries, pretzel was ok and the wings were great. Service was 50/50 hostess had no personality, waitress was super nice. Owner could try and be a bit more cordial. Saw us when we walked in and said nothing. Overall I say go, the view, atmosphere make it worth it! Just don't get a mimosa, $10 for 2 oz. glass. read more

Food and drinks were excellent, friendly staff. However, the "host" was wearing ill fitting ripped jeans and ratty sneakers, not what I expected from a somewhat upscale establishment. When I pay $100.00 for food and drinks I believe the staff should not look like a 7th grader going on a hayride. read more

Amazing burger! We ordered takeout and loved our meal. Inside looked nice and had a pretty view but we opted to takeout. Would definitely recommend ! read more

Really great food, service and views! We were driving through and ended up being best part of the day.

Fantastic clam chowder. Wonderful view. Live music was a nice touch. Thanks for a great evening

Dropped in for a Friday late lunch - very slow time, but service excellent and the remodel is incredible. Huge wall of windows bring the outdoors inside. Hard to think of a better view on the lake. Had appetizers and were very pleased. This location is amazing, but suffered from sub par restaurants with mediocre food. It's a refreshing change. And a great spot in winter now too. read more

Food ok, selection mediocre, atmosphere excellent. New establishment so maybe when they expand the menu it would be worth another shot. For right now it is too expensive for what you get. read more

I went there at 2:50 today and was told that it was a 30 minute wait to be seated. One table was being used inside & not a single stool was filled at the bar. Only about a third of the outside tables had customers. The couple in front of me turned and left. I left then went back and asked about all the empty bar stools an tables. We wanted to support the new venture but it is difficult with that kind of business. read more

Nothing to recommend but the view. We have tried it twice hoping the first experience was opening jitters. On the first visit we experienced disorganized management, slow service, and overpriced, mediocre (packaged) food. Second visit was the same. We were told on both visit that there was no seating available outside (the reason we went there) even though there were numerous empty outside tables. Rated it 1 star because 0 star was not an option. read more
