“Our favorite restaurant no longer serves Manhattan style clam chowder and we are nothing less than heartbroken. We didn't realize that our favorite thing there wasn't popular enough to retain as a menu item when Leo's changed hands. We can live with the smaller lobster tails, but this is really hard for us to take. Cry.”

Ginza Sushi & Ramen Bar 1015 Michigan St NE, Grand Rapids Sushi Bar • $$

“Ginza made for a nice dinner after an evening out. I tried a California roll and their tonkotsu ramen. Both were good, but the noodles for the ramen were just slightly overcooked. The flavor of the broth was excellent and deeply savory, however, and the toppings were good. I guess it evens out. It’s a good spot for noodles or sushi, and they have a menu with some decent variety. It’s definitely worth a try if you like either of those foods.”

Brass Ring Brewing 2404 Eastern Ave SE, Grand Rapids Brewery • $$

“I went picked Brass Ring Brewing to celebrate my birthday with my family. I choose Brass Ring because I was interested in trying their cask ales. What I found at Brass Ring was a level of customer service that I have rarely found across the food service industry. We showed up at Brass Ring to find that a very large group was dining there, taking up a majority of the seating. They don't take reservations, so it was going to be a challenge finding a table for our group of 6. The owner heard the staff struggling to find us an available table. He jumped in and found a solution. He personally asked a couple that was seated at a large table if they would be willing to move. They graciously accepted to make room for us. This level of customer service has obviously been trained into the entire staff because our waiter was the most helpful and hospitable server I've ever encountered. Firstly, he was extremely knowledgeable of food and drink menu, helping us to navigate it superbly. He also got the entire restaurant to sing "Happy Birthday" with us when it was time for dessert. The food and drinks were top notch, but the customer service was out of this world. Do yourself a favor and treat yourself to the Brass Ring. You will not be disappointed!”

The Chop House Grand Rapids 190 Monroe Ave NW, Grand Rapids Steak House • $$$$

“This restaurant came recommend to me as the best steakhouse in Grand Rapids. I was not disappointed. The staff was friendly (Kathryn) and answered all my questions. The atmosphere is perfect for a fancy date. Very romantic setting to impress. I don't drink alcohol and they had an alcohol free 0% Giasen Merlot which was exquisite. I started with French Onion Soup and Cheese Popover Muffins. For an entree, I had Australian Rib Lamb Chops with a Mint Demi Glase. For a side, I enjoyed Brussels Sprouts with Honey Dijon Mustard Sause. Everything exceeded my expectations and the Merlot paired nicely with the Lamb Chops. I highly recommend the Chop House as a must visit dining destination in the heart of Grand Rapids.”

Speciation Cellars 928 Wealthy St SE, Grand Rapids Brewery • $$

“If there was a 3rd space (not home but just as good, where you can relax and feel safe and make community), Speciation is it. Everyone who works here is completely lovely. They’re kind, thoughtful, and good humans, the sort of people you want to be friends with. You can put your feet up here and just be yourself. I haven’t yet touched on the beer yet but the beer is completely delicious and stellar, exceptional. It’s something to write home about, with interesting flavors, delicious and unexpected combinations (even for this foodie). They are known for their sours, but their slushies are extraordinary and I love their NA options. I always find something I love here, and not just one something, many somethings. Speciation is the place to meet friends or to come and work or to make new friends or to play trivia. There’s even a patio with lawn games. Speciation is the place to come in Grand Rapids, whether you’re from here or visiting for the weekend. It’s just right.”

Crumbl - Grand Rapids 3577 28th St SE Suite G4, Grand Rapids Bakery • $$

“I had such a great experience at Crumbl cookies today.
It was my cheat day for the month and I had been CRAVING. A soft cookie. I decided on Crumbl since it had been a while.
I went in and the store was clean, everyone seemed to be in a good mood, and the employee that helped me was really nice. I didn’t know what flavor to get and I didn’t want to get something and be disappointed, and jokingly told the employee that it would literally ruin my whole day if I took a risk and ended up not liking it. 💀🤣 which I mean is kind of true. So I asked which one was his favorite which was the Oreo one. I got it, waited maybe two minutes. And then a different employee handed me my cookie with a big smile on her face! I told her necklace was so pretty! Because it reminded me of lord of the rings.
Anyway, When I got to the car I opened the box, snapped a pic for the gram, then took a bite. It was SO good!!!! 😊😭🩷
10/10 will return for my next cheat day.
Because the customer service was amazing and the cookie was amazing!
But thank you for making part of my day off amazing!”

“I recommend everything! This is like finding a rare gold coin in your pocket change, or a Monet at the Salvation Army thrift store. Or stepping into Paris from the sidewalk in southeast Grand Rapids. Go slowly! Each nibble fills you with bright, exotic sensations. We go for the scones, cookies and madeleines. Today we tried the financiers, ginger passion fruit and s’more. Yes, it’s a fusion of French and American, but it’s how they’d do it in Paris.”

Drip Drop Cocktail Room 445 Bridge St NW Unit 2, Grand Rapids Cocktail Bar • $

“Drip Drop is a standout in Grand Rapids’ cocktail scene, consistently delivering the quality expected of a top-tier craft cocktail bar. Their rotating themed menu keeps things fresh, and I’d even say they rival some of the best bars I’ve visited in much larger cities. Over the past year, we’ve returned for multiple menu iterations and have always left impressed—not just by the drinks but by the exceptional staff. Connor, Johnny, and Nick (one of the owners) excel at crafting unique cocktails and bring deep knowledge of emerging industry techniques. Their creativity and expertise make every visit an experience worth savoring. I also appreciate that Drip Drop goes beyond just great cocktails—they occasionally host events like fundraisers and live music, adding to the vibrant atmosphere. Plus, their selection of light snacks is a thoughtful touch, making it an even more enjoyable place to spend an evening.”

My goodness I can't wait to go and try something else. My husband had the chicken parmesan dinner and too was very pleased. Thank you very much to our servers and the Alfanos for a wonderful date nite and dining experience 😊 we will definitely be back.”

“Our favorite restaurant no longer serves Manhattan style clam chowder and we are nothing less than heartbroken. We didn't realize that our favorite thing there wasn't popular enough to retain as a menu item when Leo's changed hands. We can live with the smaller lobster tails, but this is really hard for us to take. Cry.”

Brass Ring Brewing 2404 Eastern Ave SE, Grand Rapids Brewery • $$

“I went picked Brass Ring Brewing to celebrate my birthday with my family. I choose Brass Ring because I was interested in trying their cask ales. What I found at Brass Ring was a level of customer service that I have rarely found across the food service industry. We showed up at Brass Ring to find that a very large group was dining there, taking up a majority of the seating. They don't take reservations, so it was going to be a challenge finding a table for our group of 6. The owner heard the staff struggling to find us an available table. He jumped in and found a solution. He personally asked a couple that was seated at a large table if they would be willing to move. They graciously accepted to make room for us. This level of customer service has obviously been trained into the entire staff because our waiter was the most helpful and hospitable server I've ever encountered. Firstly, he was extremely knowledgeable of food and drink menu, helping us to navigate it superbly. He also got the entire restaurant to sing "Happy Birthday" with us when it was time for dessert. The food and drinks were top notch, but the customer service was out of this world. Do yourself a favor and treat yourself to the Brass Ring. You will not be disappointed!”

Noodlepig 601 Bond Ave NW Suite 102, Grand Rapids Ramen • $

“After traveling to Japan and living in California for a number of years, I’ve had some of the best ramen and I would say Noodlepig is nailing it and quickly became one of the best IMO. Amazing experience and authentic ramen. I would expect to see this place to be in a big city. They have a noodle room where you can see the magic all happen. Also love that they feed hungry kids with every bowl sold. Recently tried the mazemen (soupless ramen) and karaage chicken, also amazing!”

Crumbl - Grand Rapids 3577 28th St SE Suite G4, Grand Rapids Bakery • $$

“I had such a great experience at Crumbl cookies today.
It was my cheat day for the month and I had been CRAVING. A soft cookie. I decided on Crumbl since it had been a while.
I went in and the store was clean, everyone seemed to be in a good mood, and the employee that helped me was really nice. I didn’t know what flavor to get and I didn’t want to get something and be disappointed, and jokingly told the employee that it would literally ruin my whole day if I took a risk and ended up not liking it. 💀🤣 which I mean is kind of true. So I asked which one was his favorite which was the Oreo one. I got it, waited maybe two minutes. And then a different employee handed me my cookie with a big smile on her face! I told her necklace was so pretty! Because it reminded me of lord of the rings.
Anyway, When I got to the car I opened the box, snapped a pic for the gram, then took a bite. It was SO good!!!! 😊😭🩷
10/10 will return for my next cheat day.
Because the customer service was amazing and the cookie was amazing!
But thank you for making part of my day off amazing!”

“Applebees is always a classic for "fine dining." Food is good, however some consider it slightly overpriced.
I enjoy the Shark Bowl drink. Though a lot of the times they don't seem to have the gummy sharks to put in them. Last week I got a gummy strawberry in my Shark Bowl instead of a Shark!
It was still good though!”
