“Hear ye, hear ye! Gather 'round, good folk of Grand Rapids, for a tale of mirth and munching at the Olive Garden on Alpine Ave.!

In the fair town of Grand Rapids, I didst venture with my daughter and her beau for a midday feast. We didst await the arrival of my younger son, who, alas, was ensnared by the wiles of a phone carrier down the lane. Thus, we tarried long, our bellies growling like a chorus of hungry wolves, ere we did place our orders.

Our noble waiter, with the patience of Job and the grace of a saint, didst attend to our every need. He kept our goblets filled and our breadsticks plentiful, until we did finally succumb and order without my absent son.

I, in my infinite wisdom, didst choose the Chicken Alfredo with broccoli, whilst my daughter didst partake in the Tour of Italy, and her swain didst opt for the Shrimp Alfredo. Verily, we did fill ourselves with bread and salad, leaving scant room for our entrees. The food, most delectable, didst delight our palates. I consumed but half of mine, my daughter a mere quarter, and her beau, a valiant 90%.

Yet, I did find my dish lacking in salt, and thus did I sprinkle it liberally, feeling much like a madman in my endeavor. “More salt!” I cried, as if summoning the very sea to my plate. Upon our departure, my son did call, inquiring of our whereabouts, much to our amusement.

The grounds were well-kept, the establishment clean, and our waiter, a paragon of attentiveness. Thus, I do declare, if thou seekest a place of fine fare and excellent service, look no further than the Olive Garden on Alpine Ave.

Hear ye, hear ye! This proclamation is ended.“

“Just visited the new fort Gratiot location, it's really good. Staff are super friendly and the only is super kind. Will be back soon. Jared and the other staff were phenomenal.“

“Fantastic food! Slightly expensive but the soup was homemade. Thick and a bit chunky but in a good way. I loved it. Had the butternut bisque and a ham and cheese sandwhich. The pineapple lemonade also slaps. The interior is loud and bright for the decor theme but we ate outside at the patio tables. The menu was hard to look at with the bright lights reflecting on it so it was a bit overwhelming.“

“It has been a long time since we have been to Zoup but we were in the mood for soup so we stopped in. In spite of being short staffed the service was quite good and we got our order quite quickly. They were planning to close early that night due to staffing issues but we were greeted and cared for during our visit. The samples helped us decide and we both enjoyed our selections.“

“been going to them for 20 years. #19 has always been a great value for meat lovers. With national chains raising their prices, boardwalk is the same or cheaper and better meats. You can't go wrong, load up with their shredded pickles and go rogue for $.75 (it's worth it)“

“I’m not a prolific review giver, but I just got lunch for the first time from Making Thyme and I’m blown away! We got two salad samplers and two cookies and everything is fresh, flavorful, and unique. It was also very affordable! The service was friendly and efficient — believe David was at the counter?

We will be back!!!“

“Diner atmosphere with great Greek food also offered. Great stop for any meal. Specialize in great coney dogs.

Kid-friendliness: Noise level is high so kids would fit.

Wheelchair accessibility: Wheelchair accessible.“

“I go out of my way to go here. I’m on the NE side of town and I love this restaurant so much. They always remember my order. Service is always timely even when they’re packed. I haven’t found another pho broth in town that compares. My absolute go to!“

“my experience here was phenomenal. Jad was our server and he went above and beyond. one of our party choked and went into cardiac arrest, and Jad performed the heimlich and cpr for 30 minutes. afterwards he performed a thrilling rendition of "all the single ladies" for us to make us feel better. he slayed, we love Jad ❤“

“I rolled in two minutes before they closed, the guy behind the counter was super kind and did not make me feel rushed at all. Got half a BLT and ate it there, again no sense of rushing me out. Great food, great service, saved my life needing a quick snack before court next door!“

“I ordered the Mongolian Beef combination meal. Even though I ate in, I had to order from the front counter and the food was served in to-go packaging. I was left to get my own eating utensils and condiments. They have a VERY small selection of canned or bottled sodas. The first thing I noticed was that the gravy had been overthickened with corn starch/arrow root powder to the point of being gelatinous. In addition, the beef was of a consistency of having been way to tough to start and severely overboiled to tenderize it. Other than these issues, the depth and quality of flavor easily overcame the previously mentioned shortcomings. The amount of heat was perfect. Sadly though, no fortune cookies are included in the meal. If it hadn't been for the great flavors, I would have rated my visit with three stars instead of four. It is also the reason that I would go back and try other menu items. Next time I will avoid the beef and order chicken.“
