Customer Reviews
The porto margarita dip was soooo freaking good along with the cheesy bread. I had shrimp scampi which was good. Very buttery and actually overly buttery. If you are going to add that much butter to this dish then I'd suggest adding more noodles and veggies so it's not too saucy. Adding salt and lemon gave it a good flavor. Their fries were very good and crispy. Would definitely return.
Since the owners switched in January all of the good menu items have been removed and what remains is a shell of its former self. The new owners have managed to take comfort food and strip all comfort from it, leaving nothing but a scent of desperation and truffle oil. The new menu items are a masterclass in style over substance, with an emphasis on “over” -at the current point in this restaurant’s life cycle it went from an Italian joint that focused family style dishes to dishes that look confused on the plate and somehow more so on your palate. The new owners are the epitome of everything wrong with the culinary world - they take a dish that costs them $5 per serving and charge 7 times that, while the food lacks flavor and soul. While I would have recommended this location to anybody 3
Had high expectations. Atmosphere and service were good. Shared a pizza with my wife. Thin crust is always a little tricky. Has to be cooked just right. This was overcooked. It affects the taste of the pizza overall.
I visited for dinner while staying in Grand Haven and had a positive experience. The atmosphere was good, the food was enjoyable, and the service was fast. Overall, everything met expectations.
This place was great and tasted amazing. I loved the garlic bread and the spaghetti tasted good, the noodles were perfect. My boyfriend loved his shrimp scampi and we had a great time in Grand Haven.
