Really love this little place! I went to karaoke here, and the vibe was awesome! The owners are amazing people who put their heart and soul into it. The food is always top-notch notch and the drinks are amazing. If you haven't had their bloody Mary, I encourage you to try it! If you like it spicy, they have a habanero vodka that is tasty, and their bloody Mary mix is made in-house.
Quick little fact: Solomon has a sound board there from Prince's Paisley Park Studio. It's an epic piece of gear!!

Such a comfortable place. Always feels like home. Great place to watch the game and have some comfort food, during the cold days.

10/10! Fries were the crispiest and best I think I’ve ever had, and the service was amazing! The chef made pasta fresh just for us, and the beignets were to die for! Absolutely will be coming back!

Our party of three tried the daily special of great soul food. Sitting on the patio with our dogs was a great time with a friend. Kat, Solomon, and Stephan all came out and chatted with us. The restaurant has a great, relaxed vibe and a great location to hear live music on the weekend and plenty of weekday activities. I highly recommend checking it out as it's has a similar vibe as Cheers the TV show. It's easily a place to become a regular.

We stopped in for dinner not knowing what to expect. I knew they had hit and miss ratings online. We had a perfectly enjoyable time, and the meal was exceptionally good. We ordered the Poutine, Dumpling Soup and a Triple Burger. The owner Solomon came and greeted us at our table and thanked us for stopping in. He said he would play a little piano for us while we ate. And boy did he! Very impressive, check out my video. I was excited to see they had Castle Danger cream ale on tap and the food was all presented nicely. If there is one take away, I left with, it is this, I had the best burger here that I’ve had in years! It was as juicy and flavorful throughout. I would now vote this place best burgers on the range. Reminded me of Palmers when they had juicy burgers 5 years ago. I will definitely be going back to see if our experience was a rare occurrence or if they are consistently great. Don’t hesitate, give them a shot. Solomon the new owner was great and very hospitable.
Update (2 stars off) - So a few days later a coworker came here with his wife, sister a brother-in-law and they had a totally different experience. I felt bad because they tried it based off my good recommendation. They said they sat with empty drinks most of time they were there, one of them asked for a water and never got it and the food took over an hour to get when they were the only table in there ordering food. They said the waitress was too busy chatting with guys at the bar to properly check in on them and refill their drinks. They did say the food was good when they did get it. They asked for a box and the same girl forgot to bring it and they had to go to the bar and ask again. So, they had very poor service overall. Solomon please be more attentive to the customers in your establishment. My coworker will not be back any time soon. So, it would appear the hit and miss reviews are quite valid. You don't know if you'll get them on a good night or a bad one. It's a 50/50 toss-up. I did enjoy our meal when we happened to stop in on a good night.

Excellent food, great service. The Cajun chicken sandwich was flavorful and fresh, fries were hot and seasoned perfectly. Chicken dumpling soup was perfect for a cool day. Great Bloody Mary! Friendly service with soul!

Amazing food/people/atmosphere!
This unassuming bar in a small town is full of unique decor, very welcoming staff, an AMAZING CHEF, and an overall great experience. We had a large group for my mom’s birthday so we got to sample a lot of amazing food to include: meatloaf dinner, poutine, bbq sliders, Caesar salad, the biggest Juicy Lucy every!, and the Cajun chicken sandwich. The chef even made some delicious beignets for my mom’s birthday treat. 10/10 would recommend if you’re in the area. It’s definitely worth the drive if you’re going to Grand Rapids. Stop at Annabella’s boutique for a unique antiquing experience!

Friendly staff, incredible food.
Our first time to visit, felt like old friends.
The chicken dumpling soup with cornbread donut might be the best thing I’ve ever eaten.
Don’t miss this hidden gem!

We had a party of six in the big dining room. The owner, chef and waitress were very friendly. Our food was very good, and we felt the prices were reasonable. Our only complaint was that our food did not come out as a group of six orders. By the time the last two baskets were delivered, the first two people were almost done eating.
We will definately go back when we are in the area, and hopefully with a smaller group, we won’t have timing issues.

Horrible “manager!” When we walked in he said someone will be right with you. Well that someone was him and he didn’t come over to help us for around 5 minutes. He just sat at the bar talking to the 2 other people at the bar. Didn’t even get to food because the kitchen was not turned on yet. Mind you the website says they open at 4 and we were there around 5:30. We walked out after getting a hot can of Pepsi. Do not go here. The menus are hand written and phony.

We ate the best burger ever! The burgers are big and juicy with a lot of flavor. The service was superb from the server and cooks. I liked the tasteful decor of dining room, bar, and patio.
