The Grill Room At The Kirby House

The food was average for what we paid, over $100.00. And we eat out a lot. I don't mind paying for good food and good experience. Atmosphere was nice but the food was very underwhelming.

Meh overall. The cocktail and dinner menu looked good on paper, but failed to deliver. The cocktails were OK, but not particularly well crafted. The steak was overcooked. The staff were accommodating and friendly.

If you are looking for stellar service, relaxing ambiance and fine dining, The Grill Room is the restaurant to look to within the city of Grand Haven. Ben has taken care of our family there for years and provides the careful, curated experience weappreciate when escaping from a busy world. Perfect for special occasions, business dinners, gatherings, and every day.

Thinking I would support a local business and treat my wife and children to a fine dining experience, but this was a major disappointment. Walking into loud music and our waiter showing up in sneakers, jeans and a tee-shirt was a sign of worse thingsto come. My son ordered the Valentines weekend special, a medium well beef tenderloin with grilled shrimp, asparagus andpotato. The food arrived slightly cold, my sons steak was raw and cold in the center and it was covered in caned minced garlic. The waiter could tell we were not satisfied with how it was cooked and also commented that it was not cooked. We also asked fordrink refills at this time. They took the beef and returned it refired and still not medium well. After that we only had seenour waiter toward the end of the meal and never recieved out drinks. The manager stopped and commented that she yelled at thechef several times and swears that they can cook a steak. She went on to say that she would keep yelling at them. They didcredit one of our meals, but the experience was so bad that we will not be returning.

Their website gives no info on the Grill Room menu so I had to call for details. Very limited offerings, 3 entrees, 1 salad and 1 appetizer so was apprehensive. Pleasant Surprise the food was really good. Service also excellent. Give them a try, you willnot be disappointed. We need to support our local businesses. .
