Consistently great food, service and atmosphere for over 25 years. Now in the very capable hands of new owner-handpicked by former founding owner couple-the bar, 2 dining rooms and cozy little outdoor tables in summe provide for a relaxing fun evening.Seafood,chops, specials-and the best gorgonzola dressing-a New Orleans/New England mash up that works for everyone and has for years!

We love eating at the Eastside Grill. We were introduced to this restaurant during the Taste of Northampton. After trying the gorgonzola garlic bread sample, we had to go and eat a full meal. We always arrive right when they open because they fill up fast. Every dish we've tried is delicious. The appetizers are terrific, especially the kalamari and... More

We had a very tasty dinner here; we both had the specials: mine was lobster/corn chowder, with a side of asparagus and a salad. The side of asparagus was a bit puzzling; 6 spears, well-cooked, but somehow out of place with a soup and salad; better as a side on a hot dish. Soup broth was almost too rich, deeply... More

We have been dining at Eastside for years. It is always great. I wish they would serve lunch again, but they only offer lunch for a week around Christmas. Get the gorgonzola garlic bread for an appetizer!

A favorite is the blackened scallops; melt in your mouth deliciousness! Come back time and time again so you can try everything on the menu! There are several seafood choices and... More

Warm, friendly service combined with nicely prepared food. This place is a real treasure on a side street in Northampton. On the Wednesday night we were there, every table was taken by 6:30 p. m. The food was not spectacular; it was simply prepared and very, very good, The comfortable setting with superior wait staff made it a memorable meal.

Had dinner at the Eastside Grill in Northampton, MA last night. Promptly seated, great waitress. Drinks came quickly. We ordered pan blackened scallops for an app, blackened swordfish and baked haddock for dinner. As always everything is fresh, hot and tasty.

I would give Eastside 3.5 stars but rounded up. The menu is diverse so there is always something on the menu for everyone. I really like their options and the price is reasonable for Northampton. Seafood is always fresh and well prepared. I normally start with fried oysters and did this time as well. I had a fish of the... More
