My wife and I ate here while visiting the Gerald Ford Museum in Grand Rapids MI (which is a great place to visit BTW). It was highly recommended by the hotel staff, and we were not disappointed. The food was excellent. The restaurant gets crowded because it is so popular with the locals, but definitely worth the wait. Prices are mid- range, and the food is great. Well recommended.

This was a fun place with the sports bar theme. The food was very good and the service was excellent. We were a party of 10 and everyone enjoyed their meal . I had the Cuban sandwich which I was hesitant to order in an Italian themed restaurant but it was good. The other item pictured is the grilled chicken salad. Nice healthy portions with awesome flavor.

Went to dinner on Saturday around 5 pm with my husband and 1 year old son. Our service was just awful we almost never saw our waitress. After she took our order she legit never came back. Someone else delivered our food, my food was wrong and when I told the person dropping it off he said he had to get our server and that she would come take care of it but she never came. I picked around my food and ate what I liked on the dish. My husbands food I will say turned out great. Our waitress eventually put our bill on the table I tried to say something about my food being wrong but she walked away and ignored me. We had our credit card sitting on the bill for over 20 min and she walked passed it multiple times never grabbing it and ignoring us every time. I eventually went to the hostess stand and asked if a manager could come cash us out my 1 year old was getting fussy the hostess said she can only go get our server for us. She finally came but didn't acknowledge us just grabbed our card and cashed out and didn't say a single word when dropping it back off.

Food is always yummy!The Paloma is the best I've ever had!

We decided to stop in because we wanted something beyond the standard chains. We were not disappointed. We chose to sit in the dining area which was very pleasant. Our server was awesome and attentive. A very good beer and wine list can be had.There was a good selection of entrees and the ability to customize them a bit was great. We even went with a dessert that topped off our meal.Now the issue. How often do we go back? Because we will be back!

I haven't ever been here before. Figured, why not try it. I ordered the lobster pasta dish and had ordered beer cheese pasta to go. Both dishes had this yellow oil/greasy residue. It was worse when I heated up the leftovers at home. I had to drain the liquid from my plate. Please someone explain if they know where it comes from and what it is. My friend and I shared the spinach and artichoke dip. That was really dry as well, burnt on the sides. I'm not saying I won't go back, I just know not to order any pasta or dips.

Fresh bread, great selection, quick service. I ordered the Chicken Parmesan. The meal was brought out piping hot and fresh. The breading on the chicken was crunchy and seasoned very well. Excellent presentation, good portions, and, amazingly delicious! Will surely return!

Despite my talking to management about it, they still serve the worst grilled chicken I have every eaten. Cooked to the consistency of chewing gum. EXTREMELY disappointed in the response to my earlier complaints. Large potato and side portions at high prices. Good steak and Salmon. Stay away from chicken. It's gross.

Way over priced. Their minestrone soup tasted like water. I had the meatball dinner and it was just average, in my husband had the penne vodka and he liked it. My meatball were mealy with no flavor.

Amazingly flavorful food. To die for cheesecake. Great service.
