MARGAUX REVIEWS
It was our first time in Grand Rapids, we were there for the auto show. Decided to give Margaux a try and boy are glad we did. I cannot say enough about this place, the atmosphere was beautiful, the food was EXCELLENT! Even better was the service, our server Melissa went out of her way to make our experience amazing!!! Shout out also to Catherine, for great conversation! We were invited back for brunch the next day and it was just as good! We will definitely make the trip again just for Margaux.
Very beautiful atmosphere. Service was impeccable. Was waited on promptly and seated promptly. Went in for lunch. Had a very good selection. The Caesar salad I recommend very good. I chose the portobello sandwich. Loved it. Waitress was very attended which I thank her for.
We had a great time at the jdek! We reserved an igloo and it was the perfect private fine dining experience! Our server, Brandon was so sweet and gave great recommendations! The food was delicious and we will definitely be back! Thank you!

THE EURO BISTRO REVIEWS
A fantastic experience, meal, service, and atmosphere. Outstanding appetizers, salads, and main courses across the board! Debbie was extremely knowledgeable and fabulous. From the mussels and linguine, new york strip, fresh salmon, and the porterhouse porkchop. It's probably the best sautéed calamari I have had in years! This Grand Rapids Michigan gem is a must visit!
What an amazing treasure! We celebrated our mother’s 85th birthday in their private room. Everything was perfect! The service, the food and the owner Abram was so giving and friendly! He invited our grandchildren back to the kitchen for an extra special dessert that they will never forget.
Crab cake is amazing. Filet mignon was cooked well, but lacked seasoning and flavor. The fish is wonderful. Easily the best fish I've had in the area.

MERTENS PRIME REVIEWS
Simply delightful. From the moment we walked in, our host was warm and very welcoming, as was our server. The bartender made me a perfect Aviation cocktail, despite it being ordered off-menu. Our server worked with us on a grilled version of the salmon entree, to help us avoid dairy: it was 100% delicious, cooked perfectly. The beet salad is incredible, too. A lovely dining experience, pre-show with Opera GR. Can’t wait till we return!! Dietary restrictions: Just let your server know and they’ll work with you! We avoided gluten and dairy, and it was no problem. And delicious!
This place is amazing. It was insanely busy, Walk in only, booked to the gills with reservations. Matt p or Matt b made me feel like I was the only guest there the service was exceptional! You absolutely have to get the pork belly add the lobster tail. The clarified milk punch is to die for.
Incredible service, impeccable food, and absolutely delicious drinks are why we’ll be coming here from now on instead of the other steak houses around.
