Reserve Wine Food - Grand Rapods

The portion sizes aren't filling at all, and the empanadas weren't evenly salted throughout. I am not a person who wants super sized meals, but I do expect to be full after two courses. I ended up going to another cheaper restaurant afterward to get a small snack to hold me over.

The place was located in a nice building.There were multiple wine flight options. Our server was attentive and checked on us the entire time. Wheelchair accessibility: The location didn't have any stairs and seating options to fit a wheelchair.

Love love love Reserve!! Always the best atmosphere, food and drinks service in town— and while it may be a wine bar, they take their cocktail making seriously and elevate any mixed drink you could ever order or try. Loved the Snowbird last night, celebrating another trip around the sun for a birthday celebration. Let’s talk about that seabream entree, though: WOW. I haven’t had a fish dish cooked like this, to perfection, since literally being in Crete (Greece) this past year. Absolutely stunning, including the presentation and cutting at our table. Thank you for a perfect dining experience, time and time again. Love you, Reserve! Dietary restrictions: They worked with us on restricting butter and dairy, without missing any flavor. Simply delicious and very thoughtful!

Reserve is one of Grand Rapids’ special gems. It’s quite expensive, but worth the cost for the ocasional splurge. Their food menu is outstanding and any dish will leave you impressed. Don’t get too overwhelmed by the wine list, it’s shockingly extensive and in my personal opinion, a bit confusing to browse through. Their staff is incredibly knowledgeable with wines and is capable of recommending pairings or just what might be best based on your typical tastes. Bottles definitely have a bit of a markup, but as I said sometimes it is worth it for a nice meal with incredible service.

I haven’t been here in years. I was very excited for my visit. Unfortunately, I was disappointed with the food. We ordered the roasted chicken and the seafood linguine. The potatoes served with the chicken were mostly raw and the seafood that came with the linguine were overcooked. I don’t typically leave reviews, but I was just so disappointed. I would definitely come back for charcuterie though. And the staff was pleasant.
