Awesome place. There is the part below where its louder and upstairs where its quiet and romantic. Their food and menu is awesome. Deserts are killer. Stuff u don't get anywhere else.

Always delicious! If the downstairs is too noisy for your taste, the upstairs seating is very quiet and secluded. Great servers and decent prices. I recommend the gouda chicken pasta!

Nice spot in downtown GR. Good selection of local beers and the food was delicious. Had the chicken Gouda wrap - try it. Sit on the patio when the weather is nice and have a couple pints.

Solid spot that has an upstairs lounge area as well. Similar setup to HopCat. Many seating options and solid food options.

Love the atmosphere here. Good menu selection and some reasonably priced wine. Get a seat upstairs if you can!

I had the gouda pasta and caramel salted apple pie, it was really good. Not too sure on our server...she was ok.

Our first time here was during Art Prize. Our service was excellent thanks to Ashley! The food was ok, nice drink options.

If you order the buffalo burger, be sure to tell them to cook it medium at most.

Best place to get a reasonably priced steak in town.

Good selection for food and martinis - and food came out real fast. Service can be hit or miss, but with it so close to DeVos it is a good option before a show.

Grab the Ostrich burger when they're running it as a special!

Fun experience once, but I have no need to go back. Food was good, but pricey.

Watch how you speak with the hostess, most likely will get glared at and not spoken to.

Food is very reasonably priced but hit or miss on quality. Not terrible. Would not be my first choice of places to visit again.

One of my favorite places in Downtown GR. Try the Spinach Artichoke Dip and the Smoked Gouda Chicken Pasta... both to die for!

On the beaten path, but worth it.
