We have been wanting to try this place for a while and we finally did last night. We were severely disappointed. The server was delightful, helpful, and gracious, and that was the best part. There was only a very small cocktail choice, although advertised as a large bar cart. The signature drinks were unbearable, 1 was left, the Sangria was the worst ever, and left.
Now for the food, the starters were small portions and only warm, but bread was plentiful. Two of us had Chicken Parm and it was very dry and tasteless, the spaghetti was the same.
If you want good Italian food, I recommend Copones, Handsome Hobos, or Olive Garden.
Anyone that knows me, knows that I am a foodie and like good food.

Amazing food and Deanna was a fantastic server. Portions were perfect, atmosphere was welcoming and the entire staff was friendly. Even with the kitchen/cook area exposed it was one of the quietest meals we’ve experienced. Highly recommend! Try the bread basket with goat cheese.

Everyone’s food was excellent. The service was as well. The only downside is that we didn’t think the music matched the vibe and the excellence of everything else.

The food was absolutely delicious. The food had the juat right portions where we had enough room for 3 courses. Its a great place if you want delicious authentic italian food thats not overly expensive. The restraunt itself was also pretty cute, it was tiny but it was really nice!
My favorite dish is the mushroom ravioli! We have tried many pasta dishes here, and they have all been so good! You will not be disappointed by any dish you order! The meatballs are our favorite appetizers!
The service is always wonderful! The chef has always come out and asked how our meal was.
Drinks are so good! I love the variety for cocktails!
If you are going for dinner, make a reservation! It is very easy, and it's so nice to be able to walk in and have your table ready!
If you haven't been here, you should definitely check it out!
Parking: There is a lot adjacent to the restaurant. There is also plenty of street parking.

Tried the Chicken Parm which is my go to usually. This restaurant is smaller in seating so reservations are a must. The food was good/ great. I had been wanting to try this place for a while and it didn't disappoint. I would recommend if Italian food is your thing that you give this place a try.
Food: I started with the bread basket and cream sauce ($5.5) and a cocktail ($10). The bread was warm and cream sauce was tasty. Cocktail was good too. For an entree, I ordered the orecchiette and broccoli with spicy sausage. The plates aren't warmed and the pasta was spread out onto the cold plate and this caused the meal to be cold. The pasta wasn't that great, broccoli was either frozen or boiled too long, and the sausage was sliced thin and burnt. My girlfriend ordered the pasta special, and it too was cold. $21 for mine and $17 for her's. Portions are small. It was pretty unfortunate. Was pretty disappointing and not very good.
Service: I took my girlfriend here to celebrate her birthday. Informed staff via the reservation it was for her bday. As compared to Hearthstone Bistro, no one wished her happy birthday or did anything to make the day special. Not a huge deal because it isn't expected, but compared to other restaurants in the area I thought it was worth noting. The service wasn't exceptional for how few tables there are, but I never felt as though we didn't get what we needed. The staff were all friendly and accommodating.
Atmosphere: it's a cute compact space with an open kitchen. The atmosphere was my favorite part, but honestly that isn't saying a whole lot. I'm paying for good food not decorations.

This is a nice casual restaurant. The food is good. We would go back. I wasn’t crazy about the sauce but the tiramisu was good.
Parking: It has a small but adequate parking lot. There is also street parking. We went early so parking wasn’t a problem.

Nipotes is a very quaint, cozy, comfortable restaurant. The food is pretty good. The prices were a little bit high for what it is.
This place just makes you want to never leave once you walk in the door. Food is always great, and their cocktails are delicious!!

Came in with my fiancé on 4th of July. We moved to Muskegon a little over a month ago and this was definitely the best food we’ve had since the move. The daily special was great, the cannoli was delicious, and I really liked the spicy sausage you can add to pasta dishes. Prices were also very fair for the quality. We came in the last hour of business on a holiday and several tables came in directly after us but servers were friendly and quick and the food was still able to come out in less than 20 minutes. I’m a huge fan! Thanks for being open on the holiday.
