                                                              I recently celebrated my boyfriend's birthday at The Grove, and it was nothing short of amazing. From the moment we walked in, the atmosphere was warm and inviting, with the perfect balance of lively energy and cozy charm. It was the ideal setting for a special occasion. We arrived during happy hour, and the deals were fantastic—both on drinks and small plates. The craft cocktails were a standout, with a creative twist on classic favorites.The drinks were not only delicious but beautifully presented, adding to the celebratory feel. The food? Absolutely divine. The happy hour menu featured a variety of mouthwatering options, and each dish was a masterpiece. the sliders were juicy and full of gourmet flavor. The staff recommended a few dishes, and every suggestion hit the mark. Speaking of the staff, they were exceptional. Attentive, friendly, and genuinely invested in making the evening special. Overall, The Grove exceeded all our expectations. Whether you're celebrating a special occasion or just looking for a fantastic happy hour spot, this place is a must-visit. We'll definitely be back—next time, with friends!

Food was just ok (like high school cafeteria) and the cocktails lacked the correct balance of alcohol to mixer. Dined with a client from California. We both dine daily with other clients. We both agreed at the end of our experience, we’d give it a “C”, drinks “C-“. If we were to return, it would be for wine and an appetizer.
