What Travellers Say
Reviews Summary
J Peters Grill & Bar is praised for its enormous portions of tender seafood and American fare, especially the grouper sandwich. The Early Bird menu offers significant value. While many enjoy the waterfront ambiance and attentive service, some diners have experienced dry side dishes and inconsistent attention from staff during busy periods. A few negative experiences with food quality and subsequent illness have also been reported.
"It was very good. The grouper sandwich was HUGE and so tender and flaky. Just exquisite! The spicy shrimp app was so good and the salmon was wonderful. Next visit we will certainly come again."

"The early bird menu is where it is at! You get a salad, croissant, and dinner - most items around $20! You'll be full and satisfied in no time.
We got sat right away, but there was a decent wait for our food to come out. Baked potato was dry and although I saw a different plate with chives and greens on theirs, our group didn't get that element included.
Staff were definitely busy, may have appreciated a bit more attention for a refill on our drinks."

"My mother and I were in the mood for a great meal and needed to relax so we went to J Peter’s. Even though we ate inside you still have a great view of the water. The booth was comfortable and the food was fabulous! Our server was attentive and personable. We both got the grilled chicken with loaded mash and a side salad. The salad was so good and I loved everything they put on it, not to mention the croissant. The chicken was beyond moist, and heated up well as did the potatoes, because it was so much food we had to take most of it home."

My daughter has celiacs and ordered a grilled chicken caesar without croutons but we forgot to add no roll. When the salad was brought out with the roll, we explained the situation to the server. He was very nice about it.
