Out-of-towners from California and we absolutely loved this place. The restaurant has a beautiful location and a grand upscale atmosphere without feeling stuffy or pretentious. It felt elegant but still welcoming and comfortable. The food was amazing across the board. There was a small mix-up with one of the dishes, but with a large party those things happen, and the staff handled it well. Our waitress was sweet, attentive, quick, and made the experience even better. Would definitely return next time we're in town. read more

Do not book a 9:45 reservation on a Saturday because they do not want your business , booked a party of 5 and they treated us terribly. First they called me and warned me I'd have 10 minutes to order my food even though they take reservations until 10 pm. There was one girl / server / busser I don't know at the bar who tried to be nice to us and clean our table! Thank you! but the host / and the other bar tenders made us feel really uncomfortable. Tried to take our order with a dirty table and no menus! lol If you don't want people eating and drinking at 9:45 don't take the reservation or get out of the restaurant business. Unfortunately we left. Won't be back. read more

This was my first time visiting The Grove and it definitely won't be my last. We went on a Saturday evening and the restaurant was lively. They have a few dining options to choose from including the bar/lounge area, in-door dining and outdoor patio areas. We started in the bar/lounge area while waiting for a seat outdoors so we could enjoy the weather and live music. Our server was very nice and honest- even when he hadn't tried a dish he told us how others rated it. We shared the SEARED AHI TUNA appetizer and added an additional side of bread 8/10 (it honestly should come with more!) Each ordered the THAI GINGER COCONUT SALMON which I am still thinking about! 10/10 The portions were generous and I saved 1/2 to make room for dessert. I was glad to enjoy leftovers the next day. We finished with the DULCE DE LECHE CHURROS which were highly recommended by our server and did not disappoint in presentation nor taste. 10/10 read more

We came to the bar here on a Thursday night and had the whole place to ourselves. The ambience inside is dark and moody, and it was very elegant. I love the aesthetic of the display cabinets. We got cocktails for about $13 each plus tip. I had the Garnet, which is a sweet vodka cocktail, and my friend got the Secret Garden, which is a Moscow mule with berry. This is definitely a place to enjoy for the vibes and probably just get a drink or two. I have heard the food is quite expensive here. They have a large outdoor patio area too with live music at certain times. read more

Awesome restaurant. Friendly service. Nice menu variety. Could have up their uniform look at the restaurant. Classier look. Great plate presentation. Neat seating. Quality ingredients. Only reason no 5 Star. Shell in my Lobster Roll. Forgot my order so everyone was almost done before I got mine. So it might have been a bad day for them. But please go and get you some!! Ver nice landscaping around the restaurant. Amazing place. read more

We were in town for a wedding and were told to eat here by multiple locals when asking Sunday brunch recommendations before heading back home. The Grove seems like a lot of things. There's a few different indoor dining areas, an indoor bar with more relaxed seating, an outdoor patio dining area, a live music mini amphitheater that had a solo lady serenading our Sunday brunch, and there's a large venue building and outdoor area off to the side. We sat outside in the patio area because the weather was perfect, and enjoyed the free show while sampling their brunch menu. Service was very personable and attentive, and I noticed it wasn't just our server. It looked like they put a lot of focus on making diners feel welcome, helping them navigate the menus, joking with the tables, answering questions, etc. The brunch menu had the greatest hits you'd expect and both of our choices came out quickly and tasty. Their cocktail menu has some great concoctions as well if you're looking for something spirited to go along with your eggs. Long story short, from our out of towner one visit perspective, I'd tell others to check out The Grove if you're in Tyler and looking for some good food and service in a beautiful surrounding. read more

Ever since they changed the menu, everything had been off. Me and the lady loved this place on Sundays!! Would enjoy a Mimosa after our brunch etc . But with this menu change, it's awful tbh. They served me under cooked chicken... this is bull**** . Never have I ever gotten this experience. This ain't AI. This real life pictures. The sauces taste like cardboard . Hell nah. If ya want good food. Go down the street to 1836. The grove lost a loyal customer today . read more

Great dining experience this evening. It was sister's bday & she chose here. Also chose to sit outside. Amazing weather in February! Had ideas looking over the menu. Our waitress Anna changed our ideas. She suggested Beef Wellington appetizers, Lobster & Filet. Sister chose a kale & quinoa salad. Surprisingly good. Pear and a nice vinaigrette complemented it. Sis chose the ahi poke bowl. Everything was really good. Finished with espresso martini & crème brûlée. Anna had great character, cute smile, Nice artwork on 1 arm & a little avocado tattoo on the other. The artist played his guitar & sang songs but made them his own. Highly recommended this place! read more

We do not eat here often. I guess because there are so many other places to try. However, it has been consistently good. Big portions for the price. Not cheap but we get two meals out of an entree so worth it. The popular appetizer of mini filet mignons in pastry is not our favorite. They were soggy and lacked flavor. But that was the only disappointment. The Halibut special was excellent! Served over ricotta ravioli and big! The chicken snitzel with a lemony sauce was even better and also enormous. The pozole soup and lobster bisque were both excellent! A meal by themselves really. We brought lunch home for the next day. We typically eat on the patio but weather did not permit. The interior dining can be noisy but we did not feel crowded. Recommend skipping brunch and coming at 3:00 for the dinner full menu. Have a cocktail in the lounge first for a better experience. read more

We went to The Grove for a cocktail reception. It was on an outdoor venue that was nice and the weather was perfect as was the service. The appetizers were pretty good but a little messy and hard to eat. The live music was nice. Be prepared for a lot of little kids that are unsupervised and very loud (lots of running and yelling). read more

I was faced with a predicament that most men face at least once in their life - where to eat dinner after your propose to your girlfriend. While the Grove is the not the nicest restaurant in town, it happened to be the spot that me and said girlfriend shared our first date years ago. I thought it would be a great pick for the occasion. To ensure service was top notch, I spoke to the manager and requested his best server for the night. When we went in 2022, the Grove was average. Nothing stood out but the ambiance. When we came back in 2025, there was no better place we could have spent our engagement dinner - and that is thanks to our wonderful server - Lourden (spelling?) The ambiance here is really fun and unique. Great lighting, intimate setting and great table spacing. The chef had special entrees prepared for our evening that were not on the menu - lamb chops and fish with lobster. The appetizer (beef Wellington and wedge salad) were so fresh. The Wellington was incredibly flaky and melted in your mouth. Lourden ensured that we were taken care of from start to finish. The drinks she recommended were delicious and custom tailored to our tastes. It was just a fun night. Exactly what I had hoped for, but more than I genuinely expected. They delivered when I needed them to most. Give the Grove a try!! read more

This is a cute spot we just found. The bar has a near vibe and we were here on a Friday night with live music outside. Just a lovely evening. Our server Braeden was wonderful and helped move our meal along as we were headed to a show. The food was delicious! We had the beef Wellington appetizer, definitely worth it! The hubs had the blackened fish special (halibut tonight) that was delightful. He is continuing to say "yum". I had the knife and fork Cesar, the house made dressing was very good, the seasoning on the chicken was also "yum". We are already talking about who we want to bring back. read more

First time here. Came for Sunday brunch. We definitely were not disappointed. We got chicken chilaquiles and the chicken enchiladas. Holy smokes were they delicious.

Had a nice quiet Sunday dinner. Made a reservation, but it probably wasn't necessary. Food was really good. The weight staff was excellent. They were attentive without being overbearing. Restaurant was nice. The bathrooms are clean. The price scene was upscale, but that's what I was going for. Five out of five would recommend. read more

I sat there after receiving my menu and all waiters and waiters circled around me for 35 min without being serviced,, I don't think I was sitting near the kitchen . I had never been treated that way so I just walked out of that scene. Very poor service and in my opinion Very disrespectful read more

$22 Hamburger had a sauce that frankly, I didn't like one bit and overpowered the entire burger. some chef creation- had horseradish in it I think. won't order that again. Helped a relative finish his steak. Steak was ok but not for 62$. Service was excellent. read more

Beautiful event space! I came here on a Friday night for a welcome party for a wedding, and the venue was stunning. It was hard to find the event space within the restaurant (there were no signs and no waiters helped us get back there), but we found out that it was towards the back kinda hidden away from everything else. It was like it's own oasis because it was sectioned off from the restaurant. There were hanging lights, fire pits, multiple bars, places to sit, even a space (a whole room with glass doors) where the bride and groom had their rehearsal dinner. There were even bathrooms for this part of restaurant, so we didn't have to leave the space. The drinks and food were ok. I didn't wait for a drink, they were very fast. The food was passed around, and I didn't like the food. The staff was friendly though! read more

Got the Wagyu burger w/ truffle fires. The truffle fries were old, soggy & barely warm. Burger has a $22 price point with a $9 taste performance.

We stopped in for drinks and to try something new for our anniversary. We just went to the bar, which was gorgeous and homey. I tried a lemon drop on a friend's recommendation, and Hubs was happy they have Yuengling on tap. The bartenders were friendly and so amazing for our first time here. One created a drink for me with strawberry and jalapeño. It was a delicious burn! Since it was busy and we had no reservation for outside seats, we decided to eat in the bar. We started with the mini beef Wellingtons. Holy moly! They literally melted in our mouths. Next time, I could eat that with a salad for my meal. For dinner I tried the chicken Milanese, and Hubs ordered the chicken fried steak. The bartender quickly told him that the chicken fried chicken is better. These dishes were beautiful, and we were so excited that I forgot to take pics before digging in. The chicken was so tender on both! Hubs' mashed potatoes were heavenly. My chicken Milanese was served with a pear salad on top and cheese grits underneath. I couldn't have picked a better mix of flavors. Just delicious, but I got full too quickly. Our bartender said we should have saved room for churros...next time I'll plan ahead. With food this good, I'll have to try something new each time we visit. And the yard was beautiful, so we will definitely make reservations for outside table when there's live music! read more

The best steak and lump crab combo!! I fell out of my chair on the first bite. This was also some of the best service I have ever experienced. The ambiance of this place is dope. You have a huge outdoor area, a grown bar area and a classic dining room. There is something on the menu for everyone. You can go high end or just get a phenomenal burger. One of the biggest shocks for me was the craft cocktail prices. It was on par and not overpriced. And absolutely delicious. read more

Absolutely adored The Grove. Went for Brunch and the restaurant was so cute. Loved the fancy bar area to the right when you first walked in and then to the left there's a little event area you can rent out, tons of outdoor space and even outdoor space you rent out. The restaurant itself was really cute with all the funky paintings and signs throughout. It felt very much like upscale dining but it was very relaxing. The servers were all very attentive, water glasses were filled when close to being empty. They come and pick up your plates quickly. Our server was really great. Overall I loved the experience here. read more

A group of three of us visited on 7/11/25. This place is beautiful. Stunning aesthetics. Beautiful bar with live music. BUT, the food. Simply amazing. Started off with the mini beef wellingtons. So good and tender. I ordered the salmon. Perfectly cooked and those brussel sprouts are amazing. My friends thoroughly loved their food. I had two well made Palomas as my cocktail and they were on point. When we come to Tyler again, The Grove is where we will be. read more

Came here for lunch while visiting family in town and sooo glad to find an alternative to the chain restaurants on the loop! This place is super cute with plenty of outdoor space and private areas for special events. I was starving so I had a bit of everything and everything was good (the kale salad and wellingtos were my faves)! We must have caught them on a good day because service was fast and friendly. Will definitely be returning on my next East Texas visit! read more

We had given up on the Grove a couple of years ago as the food had become fairly mediocre. However, we were invited to a New Year's Eve dinner, and were shocked at the amazing changes. The food was great. The service was great. We were so impressed We invited friends to dine there with us. The service was very good, but the food was not extraordinary. The remodel is very nice. We will probably give it another shot. read more

First time visiting and from the ambiance to the service, it was five star. Food is fresh and we highly recommend the Chicken Milanese, as well as the Crispy Calamari. It was a beautiful day to enjoy the great weather and eat in their beautiful patio, with plenty of options to sit. Great drink menu and live music on weekend nights. We will definitely be visiting again. read more

Second time back in Tyler to visit the Grove. The quality and selections are good overall. The venue is fantastic with something for everyone. This time, we stopped for brunch and got Bananas Fosters french toast, shrimp and grits, and steak and eggs. The French toast was the star of the show; it's as tasty as it is visually appealing. The flavors on the steak and eggs were great, but the steak was definitely overcooked. It was seasoned enough and wasn't dried out, so it wasn't worth sending it back. The shrimp and grits were okay, but the BBQ sauce definitely didn't fit. Something like a creole sauce or a NOLA-style barbecue shrimp would probably work better. Loved the venue and had great service, so that did help the overall experience. read more
