“stopped into Grill 111 after work this week for the first time, and it definitely won’t be my last! I had the filet, and it was absolutely amazing — perfectly cooked, tender, and full of flavor. The staff was friendly and attentive, which made the whole experience even better. Great atmosphere, excellent service, and incredible food. Highly recommend Grill 111 if you’re looking for a great meal in Rockford!“

“Our waitress (V) was outstanding and a pleasure to be around and the reason we would come back again. However, the food for everyone at the table just had no flavor. As the menu reads, it sounds outstanding it just didn't come out flavorful. Hopefully chef just had an off night, will try again for sure.“

“If you’re over in the Grand Rapids/Rockford area, definitely go check out the Corner Bar, Rockford Michigan. I was there to take in their coney dog challenge, but my wife and daughter’s food was amazing too. My daughter who NEVER finishes her plates completely devoured her pulled pork pasta. Super fun atmosphere and the staff was great. Also a HUGE selection of root beer and local beers on tap. We are from the greater Lansing area, but plan on definitely making the trip west again to try other amazing looking things on their menu.“

“get a manager that owns up to poor service. waited too long to place our order. waited way too long -over an hour- for 3 meals which we ended up taking as carry out had to ask for a manager and she never came to our table. all while watching those sat after us getting served. i get things happen....i don't get blatant lack of professionalism in management. i always look to support local. thankfully i have other options in Rockford.“

“This place is fantastic! The food, staff, and the owner are awesome! My family HIGHLY recommends this gem! Absolutely delicious!“

“We had a group of 7 for bocce and dinner. ABSOLUTELY AMAZING!!!! Like no other restaurant in Grand Rapids. The bocce court was so well run and beautiful. The entire space is just phenomenal. The food was delicious. Jacobsons cheese soup made my heart happy. The entertainment while you eat was such an extra bonus and the artists are engaging and fun! I can not recommend this place enough. Well done Silva!“

“Great service and food ! Friendly vibe“

“This is a place i come to to get away from all the other bars, but still a bar that i feel welcomed at as a regular.

The pizzas always hit the spot.

Kay is here most of the times i come here and is a great bar tender who clearly runs the bar and everyone respects.

Cheap drinks, great pool tables, what’s not to love??“

“Vinny's is exactly what you think it is and it makes it a perfect dive bar full of lovely people and western Michigan culture located on the northeast side of Grand Rapids. Vinny's provides a down home spirit and a great place to grab a PBR and test your luck playing a little Keno. Come to Vinny's where you are sure to make a friend and have a good heartfelt conversation about the philosophy of life. Vinny's, it's exactly what you think it is where community is always on tap, even if the beers aren't.“

“We love this place. Great "dive" bar experience.“

“REOPENED and better than ever, but limited food options for a couple months.

I spoke with the bartender and he explained they were able to get most everything up and running again back in mid December, but there is still a bit of painting and they need to build up their revenue to purchase new kitchen equipment to bring their menu back fully. They do offer a few options like quesadillas, nachos, and so on, but not much.

- Service: Same great personable service.

- Atmosphere: Everything is clean and new.

They have two pool tables and they are in great shape. They cost $1, which is the going price for a game of pool these days. They also have dart boards, but we do not use them and cannot speak to that. They have an ATM machine and change machine.

The wood flooring brings new vibrancy. The walls are clean. Everything feels new (because it is). Some of the paraphernalia includes mild adult material, so I would not bringing kids.

- Conclusion: Glad to see The Web back on their feet better than before. I enjoy coming to play pool. Hope to have a burger there soon.

Visited on a Tuesday at 7pm.

Parking: The parking lot is actually bigger and nicer than previously.“

“I love Hopcat. I have been before and I'll come again. The beers and fries were great, the burgers seemed a bit small this time around. The stand out this time was our server, Sophie. While it took a bit of time to be greeted, once we were, she was spot on. I hope to have her as a server again.“

“I haven't been there in awhile. But like the last time 2,3,5,10 years ago the same. smile, Laughter Great food great service I have never been to a Bar, restaurants that you can sit down next to a stranger. Drink eat Laugh. and leave feeling like you are a part of a new group😉👍“

“This is one of my favorite late-night spots on the NE side. Randy is, without a doubt, the best bartender in Grand Rapids. The food is surprisingly good, especially for a bowling alley, and the prices are fair. They also have great pool tables.“

“I spent a couple hours here one summer afternoon enjoying a few drinks and taking in the ambiance. It’s quite a cozy Irish pub that seems to have a group of regulars who give the bar a welcoming feel. I’ll definitely drop by again when I’m in the neighborhood.“

“There are THREE sides to every story. First Side, the Triangle Bar is a classic westside neighborhood bar/establishment adding character to this old school westside community. Second Side, the staff and bar tender are PHENOMENAL and super friendly. This place has a loyal clientele who call this place home. Third Side, free popcorn a pool table and overall great local dive vibe. The Triangle Tavern is a MUST if you want to experience authentic lower westside culture.“

“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!!“

“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!“
