- MMattGrand Rapids / Western Michigan •1 review5.0Dined 3 days agoFirst time visit, and was really impressed. Paying attention to the little things like the chips and tortillas being house made and fresh! The roasted corn dip appetizer was sweet and a solid choice! The carne asada was so very good, and my wife got Oscar’s baja tacos and they also were excellent! Such a nice experience that we bought our daughter and son in law a gift card on our way out! Definitely recommend, and will absolutely return!More infoMeXoPrice: Moderate• Traditional Mexican• Grand Rapids•4.4

- AArnoldvipDetroit / Eastern Michigan •34 reviews5.0Dined 7 days agoSeafood focused, with good wine and champagne selection. Only a couple of smaller steak options. Better service than the Chop House or Ruth Chris nearby.More infoLeo'sPrice: Expensive• Seafood• Grand Rapids•4.9
- NNickolasGrand Rapids / Western Michigan •2 reviews5.0Dined 7 days agoGreat experience! We went for our anniversary and they were amazing. Our table was right by the window, we had a great view of the river. I got the New York strip steak with potato purée and it was delicious, steak was cooked perfectly and had great flavor. We also got the banana crème brûlée, it was very good. Our server was very attentive and friendly. Overall amazing, we will definitely be coming here more!More infoThe Kitchen by Wolfgang PuckPrice: Moderate• Global, International• Grand Rapids•4.7
- PPatriciaDetroit / Eastern Michigan •45 reviews4.0Dined on 5 Oct 2024Upon deciding to try a local establishment for dinner, Matchbox caught our eye. We knew parking would be an issue, especially in a densely populated neighborhood coupled with little to no parking availability near the restaurant. The walk about 1.5 blocks was invigorating and after our meal was a needed trek. The server was super friendly, but appeared to become totally overwhelmed with the amount of tables which quickly filled her station. Overall, our food was delicious. Simple but very tasty. Seating was an issue for us, as my partner was sticking out in the middle of the walkway in such a way that the distance from. the corner of the bar top and his chair only left wiggle room to pass, He felt 'inundated' with the traffic pattern. If anyone has sat in the first 3-seater row expanded from a 2 seater row on an airplane can attest to the inconvenience and interruptions that occur. Same with this particular table. It appeared to be that other tables were not affected. Would we return - probably - to see if things just might be a bit better.More infoMatchbox Diner and DrinksPrice: Moderate• American• Grand Rapids•4.4
