At just 16 years old, Jose left home looking for adventure and life experience. Traveling through the United States, he worked kitchen jobs in California and Boston, progressing from washing dishes and prepping food to eventually cooking. Discovering his passion for food and cooking, Jose made it his goal to own a restaurant and become a chef. In 2006, he opened The Lake Grill in Whitby. “Since I started working in kitchens, I’ve wanted to own my own restaurant," says Jose. "This is a dream come true for me.”
Beyond The Lake Grill, Jose hosts a televised cooking show every month and he has even competed in some of Canada’s most prestigious televised cooking competitions. “I’m a social guy,” he says. “From the competitions and TV shows to every day interactions with my customers, I like being friendly and open.”

This is the best kept secret in Durham! The food is amazing... the chef is personable and it has an intimate atmosphere.
Breakfast - try the Boston Omellette or Jose Signature Breakfast
Lunch/Dinner - Everything is great and made fresh.
The Lake Grill is one of Whitby's best kept secrets. We heard excellent reviews from friends and had to try it out. The menu was a pleasant surprise with the variety of choices. The service was friendly and impeccable with just the right amount of time between the presentation of the appetizers and then the entre followed by an excellent dessert.
We followed our dinner serveral days later with breakfast. The trick we learned was to arrive before 11 am since the restaurant gets packed at that time. One of the best breakfasts can be obtained for 2 people for less than $25.
My favourite restaurant in Whitby and the BEST breakfast going!
Chef and waitresses are friendly and personable. Fantastic atmosphere and wonderful new renovation!
The best food in town hands down!
We ate lunch here and my BLT was very well done...
We ate lunch here and my BLT was very well done. The restaurant however looked a bit run down. I wouldn't bring someone here to impress them. For a restaurant with such good food, they may want to make it a bit more upscale looking. In any case, the food was good for a reasonable price. I would go back for dinner as I hear good things.
EDIT: We went here this weekend. It was terrible! My husband was convinced by the server to try the boursin-stuffed hamburder, which is new, and it burned his palette and his thumb when he bit into it and the hot cheese squirted out. I ordered a califonia wrap, that has NO taste of avocado at all. I asked for some and the server was NOT happy at all. She didn't smile and barely even looked at us when she spoke to us. She brought me some guacamole to put on it! I actually got food poisoning from the chicken in my wrap and was sick the whole evening. The only good thing: the calamari with chipotle aioli sauce was fine, and the girl who seated us actually served me a coke zero "from her own stash", which was very nice of her. We won't be returning.
