"My husband, son and I came here for dinner. We ordered sweet, barbecue, boneless wings, french fries, chicken tenders, and the deep fried cauliflower and deep-fried mushrooms.The service was impeccable, including delivery to our car, even though we didn’t ask for that.The food, though, was AMAZING I would have to say the cauliflower and the mushrooms were by far the best I’ve ever had in Grand Rapids and I’m not very young so I’ve had a lot. On the chicken tenders (which had the perfect temp and juiciness) the owner said it is his own recipe of batter and they were also extra delicious. The boneless wings were also perfect temperature and juiciness, they had the perfect amount of sweet barbecue on them, he did not drown them in sauce, which usually makes me think the places that do are trying to cover up something but Wing Kingz had the perfect amount of sauce.The only thing lacking, and it is not his fault, is, there is nowhere to sit, so it’s just pick up and go, which is fine. I just thought I would mention it in case anybody has the idea that they’re going to go in and sit to eat their food.Oh, you have to try the kamikaze Kool-Aid I don’t even know how to explain it, but it is so good!"

"One Bourbon has a beautiful 100-year-old brick interior with a prohibition era hidden cellar but unfortunately is off-limits to customers. We had the Cajun White Bean Hummus and Southern Wontons which were both delicious and full of flavor. As for drinks we had the Sakura Collins and an international flight of various whiskies. Regretfully, one cannot select which brands to include in the flight, but they do offer a variety of pre-selected filled flights. Staff was knowledgeable and not once were they unable to answer a question about a particular whiskey. With over 400 whiskies and bourbons to select from, you can't go wrong.TIP: They do age their own brand of whiskey on-site, but is off menu."

"Found this place just looking through different food options on google and I was very impressed! The two owners were behind the counter and helped me in picking what I wanted as it was my first time coming in. Not only was the service amazing, but the food was also very amazing! Huge portion for a great price! Definitely my new favorite spot as this is like nothing else around! I got the pulled pork potato with broccoli!"

"Littlebird was our date-night restaurant on a getaway weekend trip to Grand Rapids and it was a fabulous experience! They sat us at the adorable table right next to the window for some excellent people-watching, served us promptly and kindly throughout the entire meal, and found unique ways to make the meal special and memorable. We ordered several drinks while we were there, most notably a classic daiquiri with Clarin that was a delicious and challenging cocktail. All the cocktails were carefully selected, well crafted, and highlighted the best of a spirit or seasonal ingredient. The food was also spectacular, of course. We ordered a Peach Summer Salad that was dressed in hot honey that was decadent to eat along with the Blooming Mushroom, Smash burger, and a Salmon dish. Each dish was well portioned, carefully seasoned, and thoughtful. We were also happy to receive feedback on our menu choices when ordering to ensure everything worked well together. Of note, it was clear that the meal was going a little longer than usual. However, the bar staff really showed up and struck up conversation with us about rum and rum cocktails that was a lot of fun. They made us feel welcome and we felt that they were happy that we were enjoying our meal at their place. Altogether, this was a really fun and tasty meal that was also really well priced for the experience and quality that they deliver. We will certainly be back as there are many more dishes (and daiquiris) that I want to try!"

"I find this to be one of my favorite breakfast shops in Grand Rapids simply because the food is stellar. It sounds a bit odd and intimidating at first ramen and bulgogi for breakfast! but you 'll find everything is smartly proportioned. Don 't get me wrong, it 's still a big breakfast, but eating a ramen bowl or bulgogi burrito doesn 't feel much heavier than a bagel sandwich elsewhere. The coffee is good, not great, but they 've got a variety of options (pour over, espresso, nitro, and a bunch of seasonal offerings). Service is quality, but slow: there are usually one or two people working. The decoration and ambience are the weakest part here, best described as nondescript coffee shop. All the personality here is in the menu, but it 's still a great meeting space for business and friends alike."
