Carrie Clevenger:

"Came here on a whim for a date with the boyfriend. We drove 2 hours to try some new places in Grand Rapids and this place was well worth our short stop. The wine list and Cocktails were inviting. As we only wanted a light lunch we decided to share the prosciutto pear pizza. It was one of the best I've had. I love a good wood fired pizza and this place hit the mark! Definitely do yourself a favor and stop by for some yummy wine and delicious food!"

"Sara was an amazing server. Sweet with some sass & humor. Constantly bussing “to the wood”. Really on top of it! Absolutely loved her. Our food was amazing"

"This food was absolutely delicious! This was one of the best pesto pasta's I've ever had, and I've had pesto pasta in Italy before. Our server was super friendly, too, and I got a free creme brûlée dessert for my birthday."

"Went here with a large group of almost 30 ppl and had a great time. Our waitress handled the large party by herself incredibly well and was fun and timely. The salmon was really really good and I had some vanilla chai loose leaf hot tea that was great! I got free desert for my birthday. Not much of a desert fan but everyone seemed to like the tiramisu!"

"Fantastic! Went there for my birthday, and was impressed. Service was quick, along with delicious food. The scallops were perfectly cooked. I had the black spaghetti, and would order it again. The shrimp in all of our dishes were a little over cooked, hence the 4 stars. The half chicken was a nice wholesome meal."
