"Our food was delicious! I had the pan fried chicken, my wife had the crab-stuffed whitefish. The ambience was comfortable and pleasant, not too loud. HOWEVER..... When we arrived for our 5pm reservation, the hostess seated us immediately and served us our 2 glasses of water. Unfortunately, after that it was nearly 15 minutes before our server came to our table to start our order. This despite the hostess passing our table several times and several staff members congregating by the bar. Not sure what happened but it seemed as though the rest of the staff was unaware that there was a new table waiting to be served. We were actually laughing and deciding how long to wait before walking out. Once we were finally recognized, the rest of the service was friendly and prompt. Still, that first wait explains the 2 star service review. Overall, it was another experience worth a return, but hopefully without the service miss."

Cozy neighborhood feel to this diner. Surprisingly well done food from soup to sandwiches to blackened fish. We have also greatly enjoyed their breakfast menu on other visits!

I am SHOCKED this place isn’t packed every second it’s open. I recently discovered it and I’m not sure I even want to go anywhere else after experiencing this place. If you want the best f in’ food and drinks- go here. Do you like food that makes you feel like you’re on the best high of your life? Then go here. It’s an experience.

"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!"
