50 Best American Restaurants near Comstock Park

“Rose Waitress was great very friendly“

“So as my college student’s know, customer service is a pet peeve of mine. Well I just had a top notch customer service experience at your store. It is just as important to say good job, as it is to be upset when thing are substandard. So thank you for showing me my business is important.“

“Love this bar, most everyone takes great care of the customers. Cole was my waiter tonight and he is always so attentive, friendly, and accommodating. I was sitting alone and he made sure I was taken care of the entire time I was here! ❤️“

“Great food and service. Cool little spot with fun hotdog options.“

“Always enjoy your beer but why does your bathroom resemble a jail cell? Weird, dark, lighting and dark colors. Also, that stainless steal sink that stays on for maybe a fraction of a second.

Who saw this aesthetic and thought, I'd feel comfortable in my most vulnerable state here.

Very rapey“

“Food and atmosphere have always been great. However, lately the pizza sauce flavor has declined. In addition - the side salad is terrible. A bowl of dry spring mix with a few tomatoes and a handful of cheese. Flavorless. A better mix of greens - add some romaine and iceberg, toss on a couple cucumbers. Meatballs! Yum!“

“I rarely leave reviews, but our service that last two visits deserve it! Our kids love the free popcorn and card games. We love the food and drinks, and June is the best bartender and waitress! She reminded us what real hospitality feels like, remembers us and our orders from previous visits, and made real connections with our teens. We'll definitely be back on nights when she's working!“

“Most likely the best experience I had at an Ihop ever. Went in on Christmas day because we heard they were open and Heather M waited on us. She was always checking in and doing an amazing job, even with it being busy and them being short staffed. Delicious food and so happy they were open. Thank you!“

“My Wife and I stopped in for dinner tonight, and everything was amazing! She had some kind of salmon and I had the melt in your mouth smoked ribeye sandwich. We also had an order of Brussels sprouts that were the best I have ever had.“

“Have been twice, about 2 years apart. It really is an experience. Beautiful food and service. On the way home my wife and I decided to make Grove our anniversary tradition. Thank you for the lovely evening.“

“Great service and great food!“

“Our go to for Sunday morning dates before grocery shopping. We appreciate the inexpensive food and prompt friendly service.“

“I have been wanting to try Papa Chops since it opened and today I was finally able to. It was a great feeling to walk in and know that I could eat anything on the menu. I chose a wrap and fries. Both were amazing! One of the best wraps I have ever have. I will definitely be back! Thank you!“

“Not only are you eating good, quality food with depth of flavor, you walk in and immediately feel welcomed into community. We are new to this area and this very quickly became our family's spot.“

“the food was hot, fresh, and so full of flavor. The customer service was amazing, and our waot time was minimal despite them being extremely busy. My Grandson is really picky and he loved EVERYTHING my son, Daughter, friend and I had.“

“Superb! Fantastic lunch at ROAM! Was our fav food spot during our week long visit in Grand Rapids! Selena, our server, was attentive and friendly and the best server we had all week. 👏 Food was delicious-tacos on paratha bread, ensalada de elote Rangoon dip and mango sticky rice all yum! Vibe and decor awesome!“

“Love the diner feel. The food is amazing, fast. the staff super friendly. We will definitely be back.“

“This is a great burger place! Try the Elvis burger, it was so good! Fries were great, staff was super friendly. Loved all the Bigfoot decor. Will definitely go again. You can tell they make their patties from scratch with a good blend of brisket, bacon, and beef. Try this local gem! They even have Doge patties for your pup!“

“This place has socialize on the way but if you're having too much fun they'll tell you they have to serve another table amd tneed you to cash out. If you want to have fun and socialize...I Do NOT recommend you go to West Sife Socal because that is not the vibe of this place. More like ANTI social!!! Don't go...parking and socializing is terrible.“

“Amazing service! Ian was our bartender and he made sure we had a unique experience by introducing us to Megan, the owner, after said we wanted to try something we had never had before. She proceeded to ask us a series of questions and then proceed to make a pour based on our answers. She did awesome, as we tried two new bourbon we have never had and enjoyed the bourbon as well. This is a must stop if you enjoy sipping bourbon!“

“This is our new favorite breakfast place when we are in Grand Rapids. The food is wonderful and the staff was so friendly and welcoming. Service was great and even the patrons were friendly and sweet. I even got a hug from a fellow diner. Everyone there was having a great time and the vibes were wonderful ❤️💕“

“Just a darling place! Food is yummy and they have some inventive specials. Perfect for a casual brunch experience at a place with deep roots and history. They are just missing the patio with umbrella tables, but otherwise you feel very much like you're in a cafe. We'll definitely be back!“

“Food and service was excellent Bartender Christopher was excellent Drinks were amazing as well Vanilla sky, espresso Yoself, tin something c at remember , all good We had the deviled eggs, bbq sliders, fish and chips and the duck 🦆 eggrolls“

“My girlfriends and I met at Blue Water for dinner tonight. Our waiter named Will made our dinner so enjoyable and fun. Our dinner came out so fast and the food was delicious. We split a dessert that we all didn’t care for. The General Manager Sheena came over immediately and offered us to try something different. She brought us a new dessert. She was so sweet and personable.“

“Server Julian was excellent. Food was ok. Place not very clean
Silverware worn & dirty.
Had the Chicken & Shrimp dish, chix was great, shrimp rubbery and too few, three mushrooms in the mushroom onion saute? Blondi dessert rubbery & not edible, although I enjoyed ice cream & sauce. Julian discounted dessert without being requested. I understood Applebee:s food is MSG free, something server did not know. And, the selection of wines included Cupcake & Barefoot brands, both of which have MSG!
And, the survey request for $20 off next $40 visit brings you to a site that requires CC info for free trial that starts charging within 5 days. READ THE FINE PRINT. Unfortunately my last visit to an Applebees.“

“Amazing food, environment, drinks💗You must go!“

“Unique and creative craft food and drink menu, all reasonable priced. Staff is friendly and professional. Best river front restaurat in Grand Rapids. Plenty of FREE parking after 5pm. Highly recommend if you're looking for a new dining experience. They will not disappoint!“

“Went to the Rockford location on opening day and it was great! Paige was our server and super helpful in helping us choose drinks and food. We live 2 blocks away and are super happy about having this dining option downtown!“

“Wow! My wife and I celebrated our 16 year wedding anniversary here tonight. The food, absolutely amazing! Drinks, amazing! But what I really want to rave about is how wonderful their service and hospitality was. We had a lovely hand written note at our table wishing us a happy anniversary. Multiple people told us happy anniversary. Our server, Ericka, she was real genuine and nice and at the end of our dinner she brought us a vase of flowers. This was hands down the best dining experience we have had. Thanks for making this an enjoyable and rememberable night for us.“

“Shaun the bartender, server, host busses, was Amazing! Kept our glasses full, made sure we had everything and everything was satisfactory. The Mr Fable burger took me back in time, was amazing. Cheese curds cooked to perfection. It's a hidden spot you need to visit. (it's in the Double Tree Hotel)“

“It's clean, decent food and a happy atmosphere!“

“The Old Goat restaurant was so good. Service was top notch. Our server Bailey was new and did a great job!“

“We have gone here for years and have never cared for the vinegar red Cole slaw. Tonight we went and it is a green Cole slaw and was delicious. Great change. Maxie was our waitress and I was so impressed with her. Great job! One of the best servers at Walker Roadhouse“

“I ordered with door dash. Have honestly never heard of them! AMAZING food. Such a big menu with so many different things. I ordered the A1 burger with crab rangoons. I will definitely be back.“

“My daughter and I went to Cork Wine & Grille for an afternoon birthday lunch! The food was delicious. We had shrimp tacos, recommended by our server, Haley and for dessert a peanut butter pie. Great service and excellent food, we will definitely be back!“

“I had a great experience at Olives tonight. Everyone from the hostess (Elise) to our waitress (Emily) exemplified great customer service. A couple of my favorites were the brussel sprouts and the lychee drink. We will be back!“

“Delicious quick snacks and great customer service! I highly recommend them.“

“Convenient.

- Cheeseburger Basket - $11.75: The cheeseburger was taken from a warmer. The cheese was melted, but solid and stuck to the bun and tore the bun while trying to add toppings that were given separate from the cheeseburger. The toppings were very fresh and crisp, however. The burger patty was still juicy and cooked good. The bun was still soft and fresh.

- Fries (included in basket): Crinkle cut and on the thinner side. They cooled really fast and were tough. Eat them immediately. They needed a bit of salt, too.

- Super Pretzel - $6: Soft inside and lots of salt. It was on the darker side and tough, but okay.

- Service: Fairly immediate and helpful.

- Conclusion: You are mainly paying for convenience here. It is not bad, but it is nothing much to write home about. The burger was okay.

Visited on a Friday (Fourth of July) at 3:30pm.“

“Highly recommend dining here. Everything we had from appetizers to main course was outstanding. The staff went above and beyond and were very friendly. It was by far the best quality dining out meal we have had in a long time. 5 stars!“

“This was our first time ordering from them. Staff was super friendly and helpful. We ordered rhe garlic parm boneless wings and they were delicious, they just could have used a touch more garlic flavor. All we really tasted was the butter and parm. Again, very good, just missed taste of garlic. Their fries and fried okra were delicious! Atmosphere was loud due to the kitchen. Fryers going and such. Was hard to hear the staff when I was ordering. All in all, we will be back for sure to try other things 😀“

“The food was great, our server was fantastic, especially considering she was a single server waiting on a table of 16, and the atmosphere was awesome. Only thing I would say is the writings on the wall are not child friendly , and even worse in the bathroom 😅 it was interesting to hear what each person read on the walls when they came back to the table😂 it did provide some entertainment though!“

“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.“

“Just visited last night and the staff and the atmosphere was amazing! Highly recommend!!!“

“Decided on this breakfast spot this morning, was not disappointed! The atmosphere was quiet and calming. Lexi welcomed me as soon as I walked in and guided me to the perfect booth, also walked me through the menu as I had a ton of questions. Jenna (GM) came over and said hi, and thanked me for choosing rainbow grill. She was extremely pleasant to chat with! Placed my order and Chad made all of my food perfectly!!
Extremely satisfied with the experience, will definitely be back again!! Thank you for making the beginning of my day perfect.“

“I love Russ' - it is a nice, local chain with very good food, friendly staff, and a quiet atmosphere. I come here about 2-3 times a month to eat breakfast and work on my Bible Study. They are consistent in food prep, my coffee is always being refilled, and I have gotten to know the servers pretty well. Overall one of my favorite places to eat!“

“We came to try out the city sen restaurant. My husband had the mushroom goat cheeseburger. He said it was juicy and flavorful --no condiments necessary. I had the beef quesadillas. although this was on the shareable menu, it was quite large enough for me as a meal. The food was good, but it was the little amenities that made it very special --the unique silverware, carafe of ice water and pleasant ambient music in a modern setting made it a very special place for our date. It was fun to people watch through the open air windows. ( they fold close to keep in the AC if needed )Alex the manager shared with us some things we want to come back for, live music, etc. definitely planning to go back!

Wheelchair accessibility: The restrooms are quite large with low sinks and wide stalls. Although they are on the lower level, the elevator is also large and quite quick.“

“I love going here to eat after class anytime I can. I love their food so much, it is criminally underrated. The only issue is that it opens at 11am and closes at 3pm. I have classes that end at 4pm. Because of this I can never get there. This is just a suggestion, but it would be great if you were at least open for another hour or 2? Please?“

“Went in to watch Tiger game - had mysic on but once Rob Butler realized it was the first playoff game in 10 yrs he had the play by play turned on. It was electric!! People jumping around! Great pizza and ask for Amber to wait on you.“

“1st time coming here and it was wonderful! Service was spectacular thanks to my wonderful server Tomas! Food was good too. I always like to go with a standard when I go somewhere new and they didn't disappoint! I got the chicken tenders and loaded tots. And im telling you, that breading/seasoning on the chicken was delicious. Even the sauces were superb. My only complaint was I had nothing to take home because I smashed all of it. Bonus note, if there's a game on that you want to watch, just ask! There's enough tvs in here for everyone.“

“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.“
