Food. Amazing. Service fantastic. Ambiance nice local restaurant. I came out to Grandville for other reasons and came upon this gem. Veggie Scramble was great! The Hawaiian bread could be the end of me, I would eat that all day if I could! The only recommendation I have is the overhead music. I felt like I was at a funeral can the music be a bit more pleasant?! I only heard in the entry corridor not while I was eating. The cookies and pies, great! read more

See all

The veggie omelette was fabulous-- loaded with tons of good veggies -- no potatoes Elijah's tip on extra crispy bacon was perfect. A true classic A+ breakfast experience read more

Food was delicious, service was fast, constant refills of coffee delicious burgers, crispy hot fries and YUMMMYYYY blueberry pie! Their servers are all so sweet and their manager Jenna was talking to almost every table, most restaurants in this area you dont even see a manager! We will be back! read more

A simple diner, but the food was really good. I had the blt and it was amazing. Fries were good as well. Ambiance similar to a Russ's. Service was good. read more

We had an overall good service experience. You could tell they know their regulars and can hold a great conversation with them which was good to see. The ambiance is as you would expect very much a local spot! For food we ordered the following: Breakfast Lover's* Three eggs, 1/2 order of ham, 2 sausage links, 2 slices of bacon, American fries or hash browns, and either toast or two silver dollar pancakes 12.29 Breakfast Skillet* Bacon, sausage, red and green peppers, red onions, diced tomatoes, mushrooms, potatoes, Cheddar Monterey Jack cheese, and two eggs scrambled 11.99 If you want toast that is extra charge. The food was a little too over cooked for our liking and over seasoned but they do offer large portions. read more

I used to go here frequently when it was owned by Doug. The universe had me in the neighborhood at lunch time I was excited to have the Bbq ranch wrap I have always loved. It was dead so I sat in the tables by the front windows by the bar, the server wasn't very engaging. I sat for a while before she came to me, ordered...I was excited to have the wrap. This is one of my comfort meals, guys. I LOVED this wrap. They used to make fresh chicken strips, they used to take this wrap that had herbs in it, they would warm the wrap on the grill, take the warmed wrap and put in on the prep table; they would put salad, fresh strips, drizzle the ranch and bbq sauce and wrap this like a giant burrito, slice it in half - man! It was a refreshing wrap. I'd opt out of the tomatoes, but sooo good. They served me a grilled burrito. Literal. Like Taco Bell. They had all the good stuff supposed to be, but they burned the "wrap" with the lettuce inside...it was DISGUSTING. Hot lettuce? Who on this earth is looking for hot lettuce? A wrap is meant to be a frigging salad wrapped in a wrap. It isn't supposed to be hot. Hot slimy lettuce. Made me almost cry. Gross. Anyone in management taste this abomination? I know you got the whole menu recipes when you bought the name. Maybe should've asked the kitchen staff who knows they made stuff before you fired the well-paid cooks. read more

Good food had flavor . Friendly people clean bathrooms tables are too tight for large people.

We went for breakfast. Very slow to approach us. I ordered a Belgian waffle, the picture on the menu showed it with whipped cream and strawberries. When I got it, it was plain, when I asked about the whipped cream and strawberries, they told me .75 extra. I don't care about the .75 but the menu clearly showed it with that on it and nowhere did it say you had to order that extra. Very deceiving. They forgot my father in laws pancakes and we had to ask twice, not once but twice. When the bill came no one said we couldn't pay on the way out, as we had done in the past. The hostess was so very rode and condescending to me. The people with me just stood there shocked at her demeanor. I said "wow condescending much?" She tried to give me a bunch of excuses I didn't want to hear after the way she treated me. I paid and we left....the entire experience was very disappointing. Once upon a time we used to go there often, this was the first time in years. It's now the last time. We won't be returning. The only good thing is the pricing...(except having to pay extra for something on the menu that clearly showed a picture with the stuff added) we're done with Rainbow Grill read more

Food: ordered take out. We ordered two vegetable beef soups and a bran muffin. We both did not like the soup or muffin. It was nothing like the original rainbow grill vegetable beef soup ( spicy and dark colored). The brand muffin was nothing like the original rainbow grill. It was not tasty. We will not be ordering soup and bran muffins in the future. read more

I enjoy going to rainbow Grill a few times a year but now I find myself going every weekend as Leah Burley. Has made my experience so much more than just a breakfast. She gets right out to us checks on us all the time to make sure that we have everything we need. Her personality is so bright and happy. She really makes you feel like your family. The food and service is absolutely top-notch every time. Thank you, Leah Bieri for making my experience, exceptional. read more

Ever since the new owners took over and all the regular great waitress left this place has gone down hill. The new waitress ain't very engaging, the prices went up. This place always use to be busy and now the parking lot is always empty. I'm glad arrows is still the same great place. read more

I have not been to the Rainbow Gill in many years. I'm wondering why I stayed away so long. They have delicious food with very generous portions and for a reasonable price. We had great service. The restaurant was very clean and not too loud. They don't serve alcohol, but if you're looking for good comfort food I suggest stopping by. read more

Rainbow Grill - Slim Jim - American Near Me - Grandville, Michigan

Service, food were both below standards. Was exceptional under the previous owners. When we were there, only one waitress, my chicken tenders were paper thin and not very flavorful. read more

Food was amazing!!!!! Staffs were so nice and friendly. Also, we got our food quickly! very impressive. i am very satisfied! and we will def. comeback again. (Nextweek maybe) lol. Highly recommend this place! :) read more

I don't think I've been here in 10 years. In many ways they are like Russ's, catered more towards the elder crowd. However they have larger portions than Russ's. I ordered the NY Strip Steak with mashed potatoes and a tossed salad. Everything was very good. The meat was a good cut of meat. The potatoes tasted real and salad was very fresh. The service was super friendly and efficient. Overall a 4 star review in and apples to apples Comparison. Next to a steakhouse a 3. Next to The Chop house a 2ish. Next to Russ's a 4 1/2. But in a fair review a solid 4. Would I return? Yes. It's not a regular but I like it. read more

We walked in and sat down, we sat for 5 minutes without acknowledgment while a server stood at the register. Yes she was putting in an order but you can at least say Hey I'll be with you in a minute" no she waited till my husband said let's go somewhere else as we're picking up our kids. Three to four others servers made eye cont with us too and said nothing. If your going to have a seat yourself establishment you need servers to acknowledge your there. Plus the silverware dirty. read more

Great comfort food. Friendly service. No complaints even when I take the pickiest people I know. All around great experience. Can't wait to go back read more

Looking for a hearty delicious breakfast in a nice atmosphere? Look no further! We had a wonderful meal, great friendly service at a value price. Will come back! read more

Old school diner style restaurant where they are actually making the food in back (instead of opening a container from a food service company). Homemade soups and family recipes. Just basic comfort foods done nicely :) read more

Brought Loy Norris High school up to Grandville for a bowling tournament, and was looking for breakfast. Well, so thankful to find this delicious breakfast, the bacon is fantastic!! Thanks read more

My wife and I went to the Rainbow Grill in Grandville around 11:00 AM after voting on November 6th. We have enjoyed the Rainbow Grill many times since moving to Michigan a couple of years ago, but we have never taken the time to write a review for this impressively consistent and well-managed restaurant. My wife ordered the "Vegetable Skillet". I myself have enjoyed this dish in the past and have always found it delicious and full of fresh vegetables, potatoes, and perfectly cooked eggs. This time was no exception; in fact, the skillet was customized at her request to resemble a vegetable scramble. I didn't have quite the appetite as usual, so I ordered the 1/2 waffle combo with eggs and bacon. The bacon at the Rainbow Grill is always exceptional, the waffle was crispy, and the eggs were perfect. Both dishes are under $10 each, making them a great value. Even better, while the food is certainly good and reasonably priced, I should note that the service has always been fast, pleasant, and professional as well. I encourage everyone to visit this well-run local establishment. You won't be disappointed. The only reason I didn't give them 5 stars: They aren't open on Sunday. Where are we supposed to eat? read more

My wife and I just had the blandest breakfast ever. How can French toast have no flavor? How can hash browns with peppers, cheese, onion and bacon have no flavor. I had to add salt to it, which I rarely if ever add salt, and it didn't improve. Once I added Frank's it at least tasted like Frank's. My stomach knew I ate but my mouth was not convinced. Would not recommend this place for breakfast. read more

This is the first time I had breakfast here. It was absolutely delicious! My two daughters & I ate here for under $16. We had pancakes, hashbrowns, hash, eggs & bacon! Service was great, even when busy. Happy/friendly employees. Will definitely be back! read more

Excellent service. very good food and reasonably priced. Nice family restaurant. Welcoming atmosphere

Take this place for what it is: a family owned beloved local breakfast place where families are welcome. Greasy spoon with cheap traditional breakfast menu. Fantastic bran muffins. read more

My favorite breakfast place EVER!! Amazing bacon! I don't typically go for the other meals of the day because the restaurant definitely seems like it's aimed toward the elderly. The lunch and dinner options all taste pretty bland - which in my experience appeals to older folks... the service is great though, and the owner and management are fantastic. read more

Very good small town diner feel. I really really love thier crispy chicken ranch wrap. I've been many times for lunch and dinner and have not been disappointed. I have gone for breakfast once so far and my eggs were very overcooked. Didn't end up eating them but I will try it again and see if they are any different. read more

I would rate this as 1.5 stars if I could. It is somewhat cool to "call in" your order over a phone, but only for the first time really. My mom and my grandma love this place. I've never tasted anything good there, even their shakes weren't that good, and I used to eat at a retirement home once daily, so it's not like I haven't had bland, plain food before. I do agree with Mike S. Unless you are at Taco Bell or Noodles and Company or McDonald's or they have told you not to tip, TIPPING IS REQUIRED. read more

A thoroughly disappointing meal. Literally not 1 item was done correctly or well. The coffee was burnt, my french toast was bland, wife's skillet was underwhelming, and the hashbrowns were overwhelmed by undercooked onions. As bland and uninspired as the dated, drab decor. read more

We love this restaurant for breakfast. The service is fast and friendly,coffee service is fresh and frequent,all the staff are personable and the pricing is good and that's why we come here at least once a week for years and will continue. read more

I give Rainbow a solid 4 and not just because I have been coming here since I was a little kid. First of all the prices here compared to what I pay in Columbus age pretty amazing. The portion size for what you pay is great. Also the food is pretty darn good too. Is it all home made? No probably not but its good. You just need to know what to get. I always go for breakfast now since I only go when I'm visiting family, but lunch is probably my favorite. The burger and sandwich selection is really good. The service has always been nice too. The management hasn't changed much and I like that. I don't care what others may say, Rainbow is great! read more

Gotta love a place where you can place your order from a phone at your booth! This is my kids' favorite place to eat--they love the broccoli cheese soup. I would say the Rainbow Grill is similar to a Russ' or Big Boy. The food is nothing fancy but it's tasty and always comes quickly. The prices are also affordable and their desserts are good--especially the cream puffs. If you sit in the back half of the restaurant (separate entrance) you order your food by using the phone at your booth and the waitress just delivers it--so tipping is optional. You will find a lot of families and senior citizens eating here. :) read more

If you care about your health don't eat here ... it's a coronavirus spread zone. Mask being worn incorrectly by employees in kitchen. People walking around restaurant without mask - no one is making sure they're masked at the door ... still using plastic menus ... no rubber gloves ... read more

The good & friendly service raised the score a bit. I would give it a 3.5 if possible. The prices seem real reasonable for what you get. I tired the Frisco burger. It was alright with a generous portion including the fries. My friend loved her chicken strip meal that came with 4 good sized pieces. We also had the lemon meringue pie. It tasted nearly as good as it looks which is awesome. The atmosphere is basic hometown food joint with many regulars. This place has a loyal local following. read more

Love love love this place! Been coming here since I was 6 yrs old. 39 years!!! I've moved away now so if I want to go, I usually go with my parents, sister and my 11 yr old niece. read more

You know that sort of diner/ sort of family restaurant in your neighborhood that used to be a Ram's Horn but has really good, home cooked, comfort food? That's this place. Real mashed potatoes, good burgers (esp the breakfast burger), homemade soups, warm muffins and a warm cookie sundae as big as your head. How about this: the coleslaw was homemade and really good. The fat kid inside me was very happy. And there were healthy options too, but I didn't eat those. read more

sucks. management sucks. workers are actually fine but knowing they have to deal with the managers daily just has me feeling so bad for them. read more

The friendly sincere service compliments the comfort food. Like going home to moms kitchen and having her wait on you with love

I haven't experienced poor service like this in a long time. We went there on a quiet Monday night, looking forward to trying a restaurant we've never been to before. The staff wanted nothing to do with us, though. The waitress (Reagan) literally threw the menus on the table without a word and walked away. She didn't smile at us once the whole time we were there and she didn't come to check on us; we had to go up to counter to ask for drink refills. We hoped the food would save the experience, but sadly it did not. The salad was frozen; the tomato had literal ice on it that clinked when my fork tapped it and the lettuce was just as bad. Then, we ordered the Smokehouse burger because grilled onions and mushrooms are a favorite in my family! I don't know if they were out or just forgot, but there were NO mushrooms on the burger. If they were out of mushrooms, I wish they would've told us. It was definitely not an enjoyable meal in any way. read more

I eat breakfast here on a regular basis....and really miss it when I have to patronize a different breakfast establishment. The Rainbow Grill just cannot be beat for value, portion size, and well-trained and attentive servers. The Rainbow serves incredible home made muffins and huge sweet rolls. Ordering pancakes? They completely fill the plate. Give 'em a try! read more
