About this restaurant

Great for happy hour
Innovative
Great for craft beers

LaSalle Kitchen & Tavern is located on the Third Floor of LaSalle Grill. Join us, Pull up a chair and take your time to review our drinks menu. This could take a while, since we offer 120 whiskeys and scotches, dozens of craft brews, wines, and craft cocktails. Our selection is unparalleled, so tap into our staff’s expertise to help you choose. Settle in for some civilized refreshment and a break from the ordinary.
You probably noticed that this isn’t a brand-new building. That’s no coincidence. In fact, our twenty-first-century establishment is housed in the oldest commercial structure in South Bend, built in 1868 as the Second St. Joseph Hotel. No fake historical patina here–like everything we do, this is the genuine article.
At LaSalle Kitchen Tavern we take food and drink service seriously so you can keep the focus on what matters: relaxing with friends over drinks and a meal.

We waited 40 minutes for a waiter to come to our table due to lack of staff on a busy Friday night. Management did finally step in which was helpful in getting drinks and food out. The Tavern should not have been accepting reservations. Implementing some sort of service recovery measure was needed to make up for their lack of service.

We’ve been longtime customers of LKT for years, frequenting Thursday night trivia, and the food has always been pretty hit-or-miss. But this time, I was extremely disappointed by my $17 chicken Caesar salad which was about the size of an average side salad, had maybe half a chicken breast’s worth of chicken on it, and was soggy with dressing. Between that, slow service (which I don’t blame them for because it was busy with ND graduation and a Morris show and they were obviously understaffed), and a really terrible new trivia MC, I’m not sure if we’ll be back.

I have been a patron for many years. However, the restaurant seems to have gone down a bit. The menu, which changes frequently, offered very little when it came to choices. What I and my guests ordered was absolutely horrible. I shared my disappointment with the waitress and she told me that they had let the previous chef go and were still working from his menu, which was going to change in the next week. I certainly hope that's the case as I've always been happy with my previous meals.

Loved the atmosphere, the service and the food. We had told the restaurant ahead of time we were going to a show so needed an efficient experience and they were prepared and ready for this. Will come back again!

The best of the best. Wait staff was prompt and courteous, drinks were on point and once again, Chef Chris knocked it out of the park with his culinary genius. LaSalle Kitchen and Tavern is a must stop anytime we are in South Bend.

The only issue was the menus had changed and they no longer serve a traditional Burger. Their substitute was just OK. Other than that we are big fans of both the grill and the tavern.

Our waiter Rob was great! He was attentive, friendly and professional! Food was delicious as well. Did not care for the singing entertainment in the other room however.
