The indoor/ outdoor space blends together in the warmer months with cool hangout spaces and game areas. This place is truly a work of art. Drink lists abound, but because it was lunchtime we stuck to food. We were not disappointed. Everything was well conceived and delicious. I can't wait to come back and try the bone bread next time, stew and scrumptious sounding salads. Today we had the kids smash burger, Brussels burger with frites and fried haddock and frites with a delicious coleslaw. The best part? Different sauces to choose to dip the fries in. The curry ketchup was the best (special shout out for *actually* cooking the curry into the ketchup) as it did not taste of raw curry. They definitely don't cut corners here. We noticed, and we appreciated it. We will be back.

We went here last night because they were open until 10:30 p.m. We didn't want to go anywhere…read moredowntown because it's Coast Guard week and there's very scarce parking to be found. I was not very hungry but I got the flautas for $7, which was a great deal... You get three of them. They give us free chips and salsa to start which is always nice. My fiance ordered a large margarita and it ended up being huge, so be aware, lol ... They also offer a small and medium size. He got the seafood burrito and enjoyed it a lot. I also got a horchata ($5) which was a bit expensive but very delicious, a lot of places use mixes and you can tell that this place does not. Overall I would come back here when in the Grand Haven area, waitservice was fast and friendly as well.

I appreciate not feeling like we're bothering the staff and keeping them. Service: Always top notch. They are efficient with serving the food, refilling drinks, and bring chips and salsa nearly as soon as you sit down. Food: I've tried quite a few things here and loved it all. The food I got most recently was a type of taco that you dip. The flavor was beyond amazing, though it definitely had a little kick to it. (I do not do spicy food, but the server said it wasn't spicy. If you're like me, it is a bit spicy). Ambiance: They have fun booths and decorations around the restaurant and always have upbeat Mexican music playing. It's usually somewhat busy, but as we go during off hours, never too full. And, we've never had to wait to be seated, which we really like.

Service was slow out of the gate -- despite our waiter hanging out with a table he clearly knew. Food didn't fare much better. We ordered the smash burger, which by definition should come with cheese and smash sauce -- that's the whole point of a smash burger, not an add-on. Ours came with neither, and even though it had two patties, we had to pay extra just to add a single slice of cheese. It was incredibly dry, even after adding that cheese and trying table condiments to compensate. The chicken tenders looked appetizing but the chicken itself was stringy and overcooked. Dessert was the low point. We ordered the Oreo cheesecake bites and waited over 20 minutes, only to be served what was essentially liquid pudding in a shooter glass with whipped cream on top. Our server admitted, "I didn't know I was supposed to make it" -- it seems the dessert needed time to set in the fridge and was served before it was ready. While we were waiting we heard another table complaining. The server responded "chill. It's all good". The table responded "actually it's not all good!" Three strikes and we're out. We won't be back.

The wings seemed to be fried with maybe a little bit of corn starch and were okay, and you can add sauces including Buffalo, BBQ and anything from their wall of bottled sauces. The real star was the Brussels sprouts which had kind of a honey, balsamic, chili sauce. They were crispy and very well cooked. The service was also great. The servers were highly attentive. There were multiple TVs playing the French Open including a huge wall sized projection. Great place for watching sports!

You get to it through a side entrance. They serve a pretty tasty breakfast. The first thing you will notice is this place is dated....think 1970's. I'm talking about the decor...paneled walls, old tables. But the coffee cup wasn't that old....1990. Service is casual, the place wasn't crowded when I was there. I got the special ham N cheese omelet. About $6.50.

The whiskey based drinks are personally my favorite: Dragons Milk Old Fashioned and the Nutty Gentleman. They both have very robust flavors, with a touch of sweetness from the maple/cherry/orange elements. Both cocktails are made with great whiskeys, that are very tasty on their own, neat. I even brought home a bottle! It is incredible that craft cocktails with small batch whiskey can cost only $11-15. On two different occasions (maybe Fridays), there was live music. The first gentleman was very talented, playing various covers better than the original artists themselves. Definitely recommend checking out!
