I had a great dinner with good friends from Michigan while I was in town. The pizza was fantastic! Service was great, he was really attentive to our needs.

Meal was good, wine was good and service great. Tap water served vs bottle service and espresso had no crema, look like black coffee

One of the best Italian restaurants in the state! The rigatoni bolognese was to die for! Very good portion sizes. Will be coming back on the next trip to GR.

Simply the best! Came here last night for dinner based on the reviews and was not disappointed! Me and my boyfriend are huge foodies in Chicago and the food was amazing (and hefty portions) (Parisian gnocchi and the calamari were the best!!), recommendations were spot on, and the service was impeccable. A waitress (not ours) fixed our table when she noticed it was wobbling, our waiter checked in on us and provided prompt service and was so pleasant to talk to. I would recommend this restaurant to anyone coming to Grand Rapids! And believe the reviews :)

Took my wife here on a weekday evening. Our entrees were just not very good. The seafood was quite overcooked. We did enjoy the tiramisu though. The atmosphere is more akin to a brewpub than fine dining. Our table was gross feeling. Seemed quite expensive for such an underwhelming dining experience.

Underwhelming. The meatballs need Ricotta. When you serve someone a salmon they don't want salmon chunks in their vegetables. Filet was "ok" for the price point . We won't be coming back. Service was great from start to finish.

Overall just a great experience, plenty of parking, lovely atmosphere, excellent service and delicious food. I highly recommend the Salmon. It was delicious. I wish I would have ordered some kind of bread to clean the leftover sauce on my plate. Our server Sarah was awesome. Definitely will be back for lunch
