Decent lunch. Nice atmosphere on lake. We were a small group and restaurant was not crowded. Waitress was friendly but merely took our order and bring our food. Water glass not refilled. Finally had to ask when the bill came. Finally, one of the people at our table got up and got the pitcher and refilled everyone's water glass.

My wife and I recently had our 4pm meal. Had to wait over 1 hr. At 4 pm? Best home cooked meal ever. The atmosphere felt like we were home and among friends. Little bit pricey but then there's AW close by. My first time Buffalo ribeye was mouth watering and my wife's grilled Arctic char was lots better than other seafood places. Big portions too.

We ate breakfast three times at Traders Grill, twice in the restaurant and once through room service. The food was good but it seems to be very poorly organized. The first day we arrived at about 10:25. All the signs said breakfast went through 11. My wife ordered the buffet and went through the line. No one said anything. At 10:30, just as my wife sat down, our server came and said the buffet shuts down at 10:30 and they should not have let us order it. We pointed out the book in the room says breakfast goes through 11. She insisted the buffet always closes at 10:30. Since my wife had just sat down, she did not want to go back. I had the bagel and lox, which was OK, but not great. The second day we went at 9:30 and everything was fine. Since they don't open until 8 am on Saturday and our shuttle was leaving at 8am, we ordered room service to be delivered at 7:15 to 7:30. It finally came at 7:45 and my wife's granola yogurt parfait was missing. There was a bowl of yogurt instead. We pointed out the problem and the server left to get the right breakfast. She came back 10 minutes later with another bowl of yogurt, no granola and no fruit. The server insisted that was the granola yogurt parfait. Since we had to go, my wife ate the yogurt. We ended up paying $14 for a $6 bowl of yogurt. Our shuttle was leaving so there was no chance to correct it. All in all, I would not recommend it for breakfast.

This was the second visit to this restaurant and was disappointed. Two of us, each ordered steak, one with garlic mashed potatoes and the other with truffle oil fries. Done to perfection! So full we couldnât eat dessert. Will definitely go back. We were seated promptly. The staff are amazing, friendly courteous and very formative. Well worth going for a meal here.

Many staff members struggle immensely to make a sandwich. They often need a lot of guidance and support to get it close to an acceptable level. However, the place is clean and adhered to basic standards and it is a good price relative to other food options in Yellowknife.
