Grass Lake Landing

This one of the better places I have eaten on on the chain. The stuff was friendly and te food was good. The fish n chips were really good and you have to get their chips when you come here, they are super good and taste fresh.

Maybe it’s the fact that they change owners so often. There’s no consistency! The menu keeps changing and the good food that once was there keeps disappearing off the menu. We keep saying we won’t go back but want to believe it’ll be back to good one day. The food is sub par… The beer is good. Do NOT get a Bloody Mary (instant heartburn!!) I had my nasty Bloody Mary sitting closer to the service side of the bar and 3 different bartenders walked by, looked at it and continued on. Nice service eh?! Not so much

A friend recommended this place so we decided to stop by. We’re glad we did. The atmosphere reminds me of small town Wisconsin bar/​restaurant next to a lake that might be frequented by locals after a day on the lake fishing.
The food was great! We had the loaded chips, the pork chops, and the chocolate cake. The chocolate cake alone made it worth the trip. Don’t eat the chocolate cake alone, you’ll be in a chocolate coma for a week! The bacon wrapped chops were also excellent. Tender, juicy, and rich with good flavor.
A little out of the way and hard to find but worth the trouble. My only criticism is the water, awful rust well taste. We’re already making plans for another visit. Got to try the pizza.

Hope this restaurant does reopen in April in time for warmer weather, but friends who went there recently found it closed alright… By the FEDS! Looked like an episode of one of the CSI television programs had filmed there. Too bad as they had a nice deck which was pet friendly and it was a great neighborhood joint.

If you like to have fun and good eats then try this place either by boat or car plenty of boat slips the channel was drenched in 2013 so no problem getting down the channel now. They have added some new items to their menu like spring rolls, smoke salmon, and they have expanded their wine menu with a huge selections of great wines. Sit on the deck and have a couple glasses of wine and watch the sunset. So check them out during the summer because they have some great bands there and you really do have a great time the staff is courteous and friendly.

We love Grass Lake Landing. Went there to see a Mike Shroeder sing and have been going back ever since. We have had lunch and dinner there and the food is awesome. My husband and son love the fish fry and the ribs. Really can’t say enough about the food. The servers are very friendly and pay attention to their customers.
I do agree about the well water and fountain drinks. I always ask for the canned soda or lemonade (comes out of a 2 liter). $ 10 buckets of beer are a favorite.

Friendly place. Service was good, the people were nice, and the ambiance is charming. The waffle fries are good and so is the burgers. I just thought the water tasted really funky. Tasted a bit like fish. So that was unfortunate. This place is tucked into a neighborhood so don’t expect to see it from the main road. Try it out but order alcohol and don’t drink the water or pop.

A great place alongside Grass Lake, about 10 Miles W of Gurnee Mills
Plenty of parking for both cars and boats. This place has pretty good food and a great view of Grass Lake. We went there on a Friday night on a nice Summer day, and a good size crowd for the Friday All you can eat Fish Fry (Lake Perch) for $ 9.95. Waiting for a table at the heart of dinner service was only 20 minutes, so not too bad. They have decent size seating inside, and a large dockside deck/​patio open for Summer. If you do not like to inhale other folks smoking, please proactively ask for an inside table — which still has great views.
I had the fish fry and loved it, and it comes with tasty waffle fries. My kids had a burger and a pizza. The burger was fairly good (3 ½ stars), but not an elite burger (not a Charlie Beinlich’s). The pizza was good as well, and they have a pizza special on Thursday evenings. Given that this is in the Chicago Pizza Metropolitan area, I would not travel the 10 miles from Gurnee just for pizza, but I definitely would come for the pizza if I lived closeby. And, it’s nice to have good pizza on the menu for those not wanting fish, burgers, ribs, entrees, et al. I would have killed for this pizza when I lived in Cali and Texas. My niece has a full slab of ribs, and She loved them — fell off the bone. She is a big rib eater, so I may order these next time based on her review.
Good place and good times

Wow! Go on Thursday evenings and receive pizza of your choice for half off and $ 5 dollar pitches! How can you beat this? We go every Thursday, we have now become their regulars.
Judy is (part?) the owner and also (sometimes?) the chef. She helps out where ever needed. There is a roaring fireplace that keeps you warm and toasty. There are a few nice big, roomy leather chairs right in front of the fireplace, very homey.
The pizza is crispy, without being overdone (our favorite). We love the Pat’s special. It’s with bacon, onion, chicken with a bbq sauce base. Yummy! The beer is always served cold.
In the summer, you can sit on their beautiful, large, friendly deck overlooking the Grass Lake and on Thursday listen to the boat races. The summers there are wonderful and you feel like you are on the water, it’s so close to the water. They offer free parking for your boat while you dine. They also offer a marina for summer use for a fee (we don’t use this service, so not sure how much they charge for this).
Sara is their best waitress. She is wonderful, friendly and knows how to take care of her customers. She makes you feel like you are her friend.
We love this place. The very best place in Antioch. Go, you won’t be disappointed!
