Awesome place to grab a quick burger.

We stopped for a dinner date, it was very noisy and loud. The restaurant was decorated nicely and the staff was very attentive. Kinda pricey for what you get.

3pm in the afternoon- not busy today. Was told by the bar staff to pick a table- so we did. No menus - No acknowledgement by the staff after that. Waited 10 min plus and left. At least stop by with a hi and give us menus to look at...disappointed

We have had many great meals at The Grove. Today we had stopped in for brunch and it was amazing. We ordered the Chicken and Waffles and Smashed biscuits and Gravy, both were delicious! The menu is not your average eggs, meat and toast selections, but a wonderfully curated variety of specialty brunch items. We highly recommend The Grove for brunch, lunch, dinner or just cocktails!

Food and drinks are always great. The service could improve. Sometimes you feel unwelcome. Sometimes I feel ignored when I walk in and when I walk out.

This place might look decent at first glance, but my experience as a professional cook here was shocking. I was hired as a staging cook at $25 per hour (as agreed), but after training, I was informed that I'd only be paid minimum wage. Beyond that, the kitchen conditions were horrifying. None of the other cooks used a probe thermometer to check food temperatures. Raw poultry was being handled on the same cutting board used for grilled cheese, and it was cooked dangerously close to raw chicken. It's alarming how little regard there was for basic food safety and cleanliness.

If you care about the food you're eating and the people preparing it, avoid this place at all costs!

Absolutely not, you will die of food poisoning here after you wait 5 hours for dry food.
