“Was in tonight for dinner in GR on the front patio with a couple girlfriends and we were approached by a homeless man who tried to grab our bags. I’m reaching out to praise your manager and the rest of the staff for taking our concerns seriously and jumping into action. Top notch team you’ve got there. You were already a go to spot for us, but even moreso now. Thank you for a great spot, delicious menu, and for making your patrons safety a top priority!!“

“Great Sushi, great specials.“

“We celebrated our 8 year wedding anniversary at one our favorite places. Our server Jacob was amazing! We sat outside on the patio and the atmosphere was great. The parmesean cheese wheel is back!!!! You must try the Alfredo dish if you haven't before. Great service, great wine, and great food. Highly recommend.“

“Delicious foods, treats, healthy juices etc. They also have an adorable aesthetic! Happy to have them in our neighborhood. Great addition to Wealthy St ❤️“

“The best pizza! Detroit Style!“

“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.“

“Amazing food and wonderful service! Cannot wait to go back!!“

“The quality of the food from Thai Table is a step above the other Thai food options in GR. The curries are delicious and complex, the pad thai actually has authentic fish sauce, and all of the ingredients are fresh and tasty. I tried their spin on yakisoba recently and was shocked by how good the vegetables in the dish were - I'm so used to frozen vegetables being used in these kinds of dishes that having good-quality fresh ingredients made the dish stand out compared to what we get from other restaurants in the area.“

“Ginza made for a nice dinner after an evening out. I tried a California roll and their tonkotsu ramen. Both were good, but the noodles for the ramen were just slightly overcooked. The flavor of the broth was excellent and deeply savory, however, and the toppings were good. I guess it evens out. It’s a good spot for noodles or sushi, and they have a menu with some decent variety. It’s definitely worth a try if you like either of those foods.“

“Caution! Very addictive. I'm want to eat it all. YUMMMM“

“Just had our kids 21st birthday at San Chez and what a great experience! Kudos to our lovely wait staff and a special shout out to Jess who looked after us beautifully and could not have been nicer! She helped us pick an excellent assortment of dishes for our party of 11, the food came out at exactly the right moments, and we all got to try things on the menu that were interesting and delicious. Thanks for a great evening, Jess and San Chez!“

“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.“

The vegetable samosas, garlic naan, onion kulcha, paneer makhani, and navrathan korma are especially tasty. Our service has always been good. We get the same young man every time, and he is friendly, courteous, and attentive to our needs. Definitely recommend this place!“

“Fantastic atmosphere, fast and friendly staff, great drink choices. We went when it was fairly busy and nearly full and still got seated and drinks within five minutes. The Strawbarb sour and Wizard Burial Ground quadrupel are strongly recommended.“

“My nephew and I shared a meal here today and our experiences ranged from very good to off the scale great. We tried a Hot Mess breakfast with eggs, potatoes, chorizo,etc; it was perfectly balanced (neither to spicy or bland), super fresh; loved it. We also got a grilled cheese, with pepper jelly. The bread was the best ever (toasted perfectly) and crunchy, and it wasn't to cheesy (some places put too much cheese which makes it messy) with just enough pepper jelly to create an original experience; and one of my favorite sandwiches of my life. The salad was the low point of the meal as it was merely perfect. We also got a chocolate croissant which was great and a pot de creme which was decadent and..can I say perfect again. This is my new favorite place“

“I’m being 199% honest; this place, this experience is the most amazing experience I have ever had in my entire existence. It’s like this place was literally created for me by the universe/my subconsci“

“Greeted by the manager, Ben, who is just lovely. Was seated while I waited for my friend. When she arrived, we got our beverages and were given plenty of time to visit and catch up without pressure until we were ready. She had her favorite, the Orange Chicken, and I had the new Korean Chicken and both were excellent. Julia's service was exemplary making our entire experience perfect.“

“by far the best hummus I've had in a very long time and the falafel is as good as the Mediterranean markets 🤤 i will definitely be back. falafel plate was for sure a win!!“

“Caution! Very addictive. I'm want to eat it all. YUMMMM“

It was all life changing. Wonderfully cooked, and delicious. Served swiftly by veteran servers doing an amazing job making you feel welcomed.

Go. Soon.“

“Every time I have been to Max's, I have had a great experience, so I love taking friends here for the first time. The drink selection is just tons of fun to explore, and all the food I have tried is delicious. I love getting to sit in different parts of the restaurant to take in all of the amazing decor! Don't miss the fish tank upstairs - there's an eel!“

“Welcoming place. Kitschy decore. Great place to meet for business or pleasure. Just get there early to grab a seat.“

“Frequently meet friends and have some of the best brunch in the city. Always busy but for a reason, and the service and hospitality which are already top notch, do not suffer. An example of this is when they bring you your food they remember who ordered which plate. This is one of those underrated hospitality things they do that other establishments don’t reach. I will always be back :)“

“Our party of 8 had friendly and attentive service. The cocktails and mocktails were very good. The kids liked their fancy mocktails. We came here because we were told the fried ribs were delicious and they were correct, they were delicious. The frites were also good, I got the truffle frites. The carrot cake was pretty good also. They have roof top seating so that's where we sat.“

“We stopped for an early dinner while in the area. what an amazing place. the food was excellent and the staff were super friendly and helpful. I can't wait to go back“

“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.“

“Wonderful and friendly atmosphere. Had an iced espresso with Miel and it was delicious. Just what I needed for a morning pick me up. Staff was very friendly and helpful recommending drink options.“
