Food and cocktails were so good! They had GF options for the pizza and even the pasta which I appreciated! The pear prosciutto pizza was so delish. The pesto rotini dish was exceptional as well. We sat outside and the service was great. We def will be back !

My husband and I travelled to Grand Rapids for a wedding over the weekend. We had the good fortune of picking this restaurant. The front staff and our waiter were excellent and personable. Our waiter even gave us a tip about the Darius Rucker concert that evening and we were able to get tickets, so that topped off a fabulous dinner, as it was only a few minute walk away. Compliments to the chef on all dishes that we enjoyed! In particular, I could not get enough of the Caesar salad! Their cocktail ingredients go above and beyond with some fresh fruit, juices and purΓ©es, making for incredible drinks! I would highly recommend this lively and very unique restaurant!

The atmosphere here is very welcoming. It's hard to place a finger on the exact style, but it's upscale and well lit. It felt a little retro upscale too. I ordered the Spicy Pork Meatballs ($16) as an appetizer. They were excellent. Not mind blowing unique, but done to a high standard. I came for the Beef Brisket Bourguignon ($36). I had heard they had a real good pot roast. Well it wasn't just really good. It was spectacular! Probably the best I've had. So tender and flavorful. The sauce with it is excellent and perfectly emphasizes the beef. The potatoes and veggies with it are all perfectly cooked also. I finished with their Chocolate Tart ($13). It was fantastic! It is chocolate to the nines. However it doesn't cross the line of being too much. The chocolate is extremely high quality and super tasty. The service was fantastic. It was super friendly and knowledgeable. Attentive without being too much. Shout out to Harrison, he was awesome. Overall one of the easiest 5 star reviews I've ever done. They are now in my top 5 places in Grand Rapids. Would I return? Lol, duh!
