Windjammer's - Dunkirk
Windjammer's
Description
Perched in the Clarion Hotel with sweeping Lake Erie and Dunkirk Marina views, this casual spot serves standout Indian dishes—especially a memorable chicken korma—alongside burgers, steaks and popular wings at fair prices. Strengths include a holiday buffet, generous condiments and scenic sunset dining; weaknesses are inconsistent service, slow checks, loud birds/music, outdated decor and cramped seating. Presentation can be dive-bar casual and pizza is a miss. Best for hotel guests, families and casual sunset dinners rather than quiet, upscale occasions.

The butter chicken, yellow fried rice, and garlic naan were all amazing! Wait staff was lacking but could tell the poor girl was doing her best. Need to hire more servers.
Pleasantly surprised by the Indian food here. Absolutely delicious. Slightly saltier for some dishes than what I’m used to (i.e., butter chicken wasn’t sweet nor the veggie korma), but everything else was on point! Would def come here again. Can’t wait to come back!
Great Indian food! We had a vegetarian dinner and it was fresh, well seasoned and very tasty.
Then our waiter approached us with a noticeable attitude. I understand that serving can be tough, but a smile can go a long way in creating a positive dining experience and earning good tips. When I asked her about the best item on the menu, her response was confusing. After she clarified that there were two menus—Indian and American—I asked her where I could find the Indian menu. Instead of providing helpful information, she only pointed out two items from the same menu, which did nothing to enhance our experience and only aggravated her already poor attitude. We decided to place our orders; she recommended the hamburger and the beef on weck, so I went with the hamburger while my partner opted for chicken tenders with sweet Asian chili. But that wasn’t all—THE BIRDS WERE EXTREMELY LOUD. We could barely hear each other over the noise of the birds and music. Speaking of ambience, the decor was outdated and worn. The neon sign was broken, and there were Christmas lights still hanging outside. The seating was uncomfortable, especially for anyone over the age of ten, which just compounded our frustration. When our food arrived, it was passable but nothing impressive. I wish I had taken pictures because the presentation was lackluster, resembling that of a dive bar—not what you'd expect from a supposed upscale restaurant. Finally, when it was time to leave, I asked for the check, which took ten minutes to arrive, and she LITERALLY threw it on the table. Talk about rude and unacceptable. I left a 15% tip because I try to be nice, but she was lucky I didn't leave only 8%. In summary, I would not recommend dining here unless you’re okay with subpar service and mediocre food.
