About this restaurant

  • Good for special occasions
  • Good for business meals
  • Great for creative cocktails
LaSalle Grill, a modern American Bistro featuring steaks and chops and seafood cooked over a live hardwood fire, is born of the dream of experienced restaurateur Mark McDonnell. Like the restaurant’s namesake, noted French explorer, Robert de LaSalle, McDonnell set out to explore the uncharted waters of downtown South Bend, Indiana. LaSalle Grill has set the standard for fine dining in South Bend since 1991

LaSalle Grill is committed to providing guests with unrivaled hospitality and excellent service, great atmosphere, an award-winning wine list and, most importantly, delicious cuisine that is artfully and dramatically presented.

The Grill has been presented with the coveted AAA Four Diamond Award every year since 1996. The wine list is also exceptional with many bottles priced under $75.00. The list has also won the Wine Spectator Best of Award of Excellence sine 2023.

Set out to explore the art of fine dining usually found only in major metropolitan cities, visit LaSalle Grill.

    We received excellent service from our server, Tia. The food quality was very good. While known for their steaks, we decided to order several appetizers to share and we were not disappointed.

    The Tile Fish with lentils was EXCELLENT. Well prepared. The fish was moist, the sauce was perfect (not too salty, not too much cream), and the lentils were cooked to perfection. The cocktails and wine were very enjoyable and refreshing. The only complaint would be the crab cakes had too much filler and there weren't enough "chunks" of blue crab (difficult to do but a great restaurant should make sure it happens). The crabcakes relied heavily on the excellent sauce that came with them. Overall experience was great and clearly LaSalle Grill is one of the best restaurants in the South Bend area. Great location, too.

    A wonderful meal and terrific service marked our evening last night at The LaSalle Grill. Please keep "keeping on" as you provide fantastic food and spectacular service to the people of Michiana and visitors to this "hidden gem" located in downtown South Bend,IN.

    Our meal was good. The menu is underwhelming and a little boring but the food was good. Service was great. The restaurant looks a little tired.

    From start to finish, we received great service from TC! Incredibly personable, recommendations were on point, and everything was prompt! Both entrees, the duck and salmon, were a slam dunk. Don’t miss out on this great experience!

    The food was very good, but the dining room is small and crowded. I don’t like the open door to the kitchen. There was no dress code enforcement, some guests came in gym shoes and sweatpants! Above the restaurant is their more casual restaurant and families of sports teams wearing baseball hats and hoodies walk through the main dining room to go upstairs. When I come to an expensive restaurant for a quiet, special dining experience, I don’t want baseball hats and gym shoes.

    Outstanding food quality and variety. Every appetizer we have tried including the scallops, the baked Brie, the beef carpaccio were outstanding, flavorful, fresh and delicious. I always enjoy the salmon and my husband loves the steaks. Wine is always good. We love the atmosphere and the attentive staff. A favorite restaurant in South Bend!
