About this restaurant

  • Good for groups
My father Walt opened the Windjammer Restaurant in 1977 with a commitment to offering the best steaks, prime rib and seafood in Burlington, Vermont. Tom and I are proud to continue the Windjammer tradition of simple, classic food in a fun and inviting atmosphere. The Windjammer and Upper Deck Pub are two unique dining experiences in one location. We invite you to enjoy great food in a warm and friendly environment with some of the best local hospitality around. Laura and Tom O'Connell

    The filet was delicious, and the salmon was cooked well but the potato in top gave it a very strange texture. We were seated right ext to the kitchen, even though there were plenty of other tables available, so we were interrupted by servers going in and out throughout the night. With that aside, I enjoyed my time there and would go again.

    Diner on a snowy evening at 8pm. Busy in the dining room but not packed. Server did not approach table for at least 10 minutes and only to tell us he would return soon. No drink order or anything! Finally he returned after 5 minutes. We had to ask what the specials were and we immediately ordered appetizers and then proceeded to salad bar. Salad bar good with many options, very old school. Cheese and crackers or bread (?) on salad bar, too. Appetizers were very good, salads fresh. Service was very slow waiting for our dinners. We had steaks which were good. The steak off the menu was much better than the Oscar Style steak on the specials. The server took a very long time to clear our plates and then never offered dessert. The food is good and menu items similar to 30 years ago. The decor is nice with a seaside, ship/boat theme. Casual atmosphere. Service was the real letdown. We will return.

    If you want basic, American fare, this is the place for you. The restaurant is large with multiple dining areas and a salad bar that provides the expected salad fixings. Predictable menu offerings with some of the choices presented in different size options (much appreciated by someone who can never finish a standard portion of prime rib).

    Husband’s swordfish was dry and over-cooked, but my steak was wonderful. Salad bar and service were, as always, terrific.

    The bacon wrapped scallops are pretty rad, they have good beers and great steaks. Always a good decision

    Service was great. Food overpriced and not very good. Very old ambience, like we went back in time. Next time we’ll spend half the money somewhere else for hopefully a tastier meal.

    Good food and good service. Skeptical about going back after the viruse that made so many people sick. It was definitely worth another trip there

    Our son’s favorite restaurant. Salad bar is usually clean and tidy. This visit, there must’ve been a lot of patrons because several of the containers were nearly empty and the dressings were mixed together. The salad dressing area was pretty messy. Our food was good though.

    we usually dine at the Windjammer for special occasions, like birthdays and anniversaries. Or last visit was to celebrate our son's birthday. The menu offers something for everyone's appetite. Once again, we had a fabulous dining experience! And our waiter, I believe his name was Kyle, was great and very friendly.
