    Overall, wonderful lunch. The server didn’t have the “extra” something that many of the other servers have in their engagement with our table. He was good, just not the top tier. I’d recommend more smiles, chatting casually with us, etc. The food was terrific, great presentation.

    Scholar is one of my top three restaurants in Grand Rapids. It truly hits all the categories you want in a nice dinner downtown. Atmosphere and decor is beautiful and moody. Food is INCREDIBLE!! Cannot recommend the Bison Short Ribs if they're still on the menu when you go. Delish cocktails and the staff is kind and. charming. Scholar is always one of my first places to recommend to friends who want a night out. The menu is pricey, for sure, but you're absolutely getting what you pay for! Worth every dollar imo.

    Service was outstanding. Lisa was our server. Food was delish. The gentleman assisting was helpful and professional. We ordered the large seafood tower, Caesar salads, shared a filet and ordered a ribeye and filet to go. All very good.

    This was my first time at Tupelo Honey-I was with some girlfriends for brunch. The mimosa flight is excellent and we all had a variation of their chicken and waffles. It was an exceptional and indulgent brunch for less than 40 bucks. I love it.
