By far the best seafood we've had in Gainesville. My wife and I love this restaurant. It feels like we're eating somewhere on the coast. Everything was fresh and delicious. Highly recommend. The stuffed grouper was incredible!
Northwest Grill, located in Gainesville, FL, is a true 💎! I arrived 3:30-4PM and had the pleasure of being served by Sean, who is both attentive and knowledgeable of the menu. When I arrived, it was moderately busy with no wait. To quench my palate and thirst, I chose the Mimosa Special, $8 for 4: Peach, Orange, Cranberry, & Pineapple, all with a perfect balance of champagne and juice, with a glass of ice water and a "bowl of lemons". I was, quickly, served a soft, warm, honey wheat loaf of bread and real honey butter, shortly followed by a House salad, made with fresh, baby spinach, arugula, and dark-green, leafy Romaine lettuce, red peppers, plump, cherry tomatoes, sliced red onions, sweet cranberries, and shaved almonds, with choice of dressing: I wisely chose lemon-feta vinegarrette. For my main course, I enjoyed the St Augustine Shrimp, butterflied, lightly battered, then delicately fried to perfection, with fresh, steamed broccoli. This dish will delight any palate. I finished my meal off with the light and creamy Tiramisu and the sweet and fluffy Pineapple Upside-down Cake! I give the NORTHWEST GRILL ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ for Quality of food and service, Friendly and Attentive Staff, Cleanliness (including restrooms), Location, and Price/Value.
We went for Sunday Brunch. We are at 10:15 a.m. and there was no waiting and plenty of seating. I had the blackboard special of steak fillet, scrambled eggs and mushroom quesadilla w/ fries and my friend had the bacon and gorgonzola burger w/fries. Our was delicious. Service was great. Everything above with iced tea and 2 Bloody Marys was $37 plus tip. A lovely start to a Sunday.
Top notch locally owned fish and seafood grill. I had the stuffed grouper with cheese grits and slaw. Others had Fried Shrimp with Fries and Slaw. The food was simply outstanding. The service was top notch for our party of 8. The prices are very reasonable.
Had a late lunch here. I had fried catfish. It was good. My wife had a burger and she liked it as well. The restaurant was quiet and clean. The staff was efficient and friendly. The portions were more than either of us could eat. This is the second time that I've eaten here and I will return whenever I pass through Gainesville.
Again we had a great experience. Even though they are short staffed they were attentive and professional. Our meals were amazing. My husband had thr sesame crusted ahi and I had drunken grouper. Both were great and we had not one complaint! We think we have might found a favorite in Northwest Grille!
I have been in several times and have yet to have a bad meal. I love the daily specials! (The chicken breast with Demi glace and smashed potatoes is a favorite!) Steaks are always cooked perfectly and I love the local art as much as the St. Augustine shrimp!
