We stopped in for lunch. It was our first time on Lake Champlain and we were very happy we chose Bravo Zulu to stop at. Collectively we had popcorn shrimp, chicken nachos, caprese wrap and the clam strip special. We each had different beers (including one of the non-alcoholic options). The food was delicious, the atmosphere was excellent and the service was as outstanding! The roof and walls are retractable so when it’s nice out (like it was today), the place is wide open. They also have tables with umbrellas to provide some shade options. We would definitely return and recommend checking them out!

Amazing restaurant. I had the poke bowl which was delicious. Service and atmosphere are also very good. Their unsweetened ice tea is especially very good. I highly recommend if you are around. It also has amazing views of Lake Champlain that couldn't be better.

My friend and I were visiting Grand Isle and decided to grab a bite to eat at Bravo Zulu. I ordered a Fish and Chips and my friends ordered a Caprese Wrap. The breading of the fish was wonderfully light and crispy and the fish itself was very tasty. The Caprese Wrap was ample and flavorful. I drank a non-alcoholic drink, a Strawberry Pineapple Sparkler. My friend ordered a beer (Hazy IPA). We both enjoyed our drinks. The service was excellent and the view of the lake was/is beautiful. Bravo Zulu is worth visiting and I recommend that you do so!

We go up to Swanton, VT every year at least once or twice and have been looking for a place to eat like this and cannot believe we have overlooked this for years. We drove the boat over and stopped in after a morning of fishing and right from the moment we were parking the boat until we walked away after eating, we had amazing service. Start to finish, 5 stars! The dock hand was super friendly and helpful, the wait staff was very friendly & attentive, the manager even came over as he heard it was our first time there, the food was great, atmosphere was perfect and the music playlist was spot on (diverse and upbeat)! We were finishing up our food at closing time and never once felt rushed out. My husband got the fish and chips and said it was the best fish and chips he has ever eaten and he orders seafood all the time. 10/10 will be back!

I had a glass of switch back with fish and chips underneath their retractable ceiling and was very satisfied with my meal.

My friend and I ate lunch here today with her 2 year old daughter and the food and drinks were incredible, our waitress was so sweet and attentive. We met the manager who told us all about the events happening over the next couple of months. We drove over 50 minutes to come eat here, 100% worth it. Beautiful sunny day with a perfect view of the lake. We will be coming regularly now this summer!

I came here last summer and had a mixed experience. The service and atmosphere were stellar, but the burger I ordered was overcooked and very disappointing. I went back there this year and WOW, what a difference. The view is still amazing, the service spot on, but I had THE BEST CUBANO I HAVE EVER EATEN IN MY LIFE THERE. When I was ordering, I was stuck between fish and chips and the Cubano. I asked the waitress and she recommended the latter, saying I wouldn't be disappointed. She was not wrong. Seriously, I have never had a Cubano this perfectly constructed and flavorful, that includes several places I have visited in Key West. For the first half of the sandwich, I was almost in another world, everyone else at my table sounded like they were talking with way too much reverb. For the second half, I just kept thinking that it was going to end soon and dreading that moment. Luckily, I was stuffed to the gills after finishing though. I also had a great conversation with the Manager, I believe his name was Daniel? He came over and asked us how the food was and I absolutely went off the rails raving about this sandwich. The story of how he got the recipe was very entertaining, definitely ask about it. Everyone else at our table loved their food as well, but you. Need. To. Try. This. Sandwich. My friends would agree, it's all I talked about for the rest of the evening. Bravo Zulu knocked our whole night out of the park. By the way, the photo I attached is just half the sandwich so you could see the perfect stratification. I will be coming back here every time I visit my Mom in North Hero!
