My dear friend took me on a date here for my Birthday. The food was absolutely phenomenal. The dishes were like an art, perfectly set up and unique pairings. We went with several appetizers and shared a pasta dish, a dessert and we both had a drink. We were definitely satisfied with the portions; they weren’t huge by any means but they were decent enough. The downsides were 1. We sat outdoors and the service was incredibly slow. I’m talking, it took over 2.5 hours start to finish, and it wasn’t because we were indecisive. The other downside (which totally wasn’t their fault) was a young family sat directly next to us with 2 young children, and one of them would randomly shriek scream. I’m a mother of 2 young children and I absolutely believe children are welcome in public. It was just very loud and would catch us off guard. Spending nearly $200 on a nice dinner, you want to be able to fully enjoy it!

I didn’t expect to be so underwhelmed by Reserve. I had heard many good things from friends and had high expectations for my experience, especially because it was my birthday. From the start, it wasn’t the best experience. Our waiter came over and it was clear we were just another table. There was no real attempt to be personable and it seemed as if his whole personality was rehearsed. The drinks, overpriced. The old fashioned was one of the worse ones I’ve had in the city. The food, underwhelming. And when it came to dessert, that was honestly the best part. It just doesn’t seem worth the price point when there are other comparable restaurants that blow Reserve away in every sense.

Highly recommend. Every single dish that our tabled ordered was amazing. Our server, Chris, gave great recommendations and outstanding service. The patio is also nice and has a canopy so you don’t have to be in direct sunlight.

Thank you to our serve for the outstanding service up at the bar! He made an amazing suggestion to get the Pork Chop! It is unlike anything you can get in Grand Rapids. It is caramelized on the outside, sprinkled with cheesy bites, and laid on a bed of delicious grits. Along side it also has pickled apples which are surprisingly one of the best parts.

Incredible selection of wine. Service is above and beyond. Food selection is excellent! Dry aged bone in ribeye, calamari, and even chips and dip with caviar! This will be a special place for a dinner date!

Comfortable date spot downtown that feels unique and updated in its seasonal dishes. I appreciate experiencing a vegan option at a fancier place and felt valued that they asked ahead of time about dietary restrictions and allergies.

Talk about a romantic date night. I wouldnt recommend this if you have kids bc it is expensive. The food was top notch and each wine can be paired to the meal.

Our experience was okay. We ordered a bottle of wine, 3 piece cheese board, 2 pastas, an entree and two desserts. I poured most of the bottle of wine myself. I will say the waiter did pour it once after the initial opening and did have 4 tables one being an 8 top. The entrees (pork Ragu, seafood linguine, and duck breast) were all cold, however tasted good. We didn’t say anything because again they tasted good we just wished they were warm… not even hot. Just warm haha. Then we ordered desserts, my boyfriend was excited to have the cherry citrus sorbet. He had wanted a sorbet at a pervious restaurant and they were out. It was also his 30th birthday. Unfortunately, the citrus must have been grapefruit because all you could taste was bitterness. No cirtus, no tart or sweet cherry flavor. Just bitter. The waiter did stop by to apologize for forgetting a candle for him… which was disappointing but fine. However, my boyfriend being more outspoken than me asked for the icecream (pistachio lime) instead. I was excited that perhaps the waiter would then put the candle in there to only be disappointed once again. My boyfriend did really enjoy the icecream so I am happy for that sake. I don’t think I will be returning or recommending this restaurant to anyone due to the expectation and lack of execution.
