Best Austrian Restaurant Grand Rapids Near Me

B Siggers: I ordered the O.G. I normally get it from BOSNA Express. Ordered from Zivio maybe 3 times total since it opened because it’s en route to my place of employment. I was so excited to eat my lunch. Opened the styrofoam container and the first bite almost ruined it for me. I thought nah, took another bite, third bite.. SAME THING!!! Normally they are so meaty and full of vegetables. Today it tasted as though I ordered at Tomato and Onion Gyro. What happened to the meat? Is this what I now have to look forward to. I wasted $33. I’m so very disappointed.

Tim Kennedy: One of our favorite local spots. The quality of food and service you get here will always be above and beyond. We came for some light fare and a drink and it hit the spot! The wife and I split the nachos; it was just enough food with an enormous amount of flavor. The old fashioned here was “exactly as an old fashioned should be”. Thank you Zivio!

Tammy Parney (EchoPond): Great food, great staff, nice atmosphere, and portion sizes were huge. Highly recommend. One of the best Mediterranean places in town.Food: 5/5|Service: 5/5|Atmosphere: 5/5Recommended dishes Garlic Gyro, Gyros, Vegan Gyro, The Vegan Gyro …More

Joy Shin: you need to try their fries

Jon Harrison: We went out early on a Friday night and we’re able to get seated at Zivio which was a new restaurant to us; by the time we left there was a line waiting to get seated and this was well deserved. We were very pleased with dinner; we had gyros and the taco trio. The bread was very good as well. We will definitely go back as the menu looked full of other great choices.

Roselyn Charles-Maher: Unfortunately, I will not be returning to Zivio. Tonight, we had single moms and married moms, widows, teachers, friends. We had a great dinner at Winchester and headed to Zivio for a cocktail. It was busy so we found stools. We had two of us standing behind the stools. A waitstaff asked us if we could "compress" as we were in the way of servers running food. We were apologetic and did our best not to be in the way. We ordered drinks, paid for them, and continued to giggle and enjoy the night. Before we knew it, a bartender told us that customers were complaining about us being in the way. He also told us he voided our drinks. And then he walked away. It was shameful as the restaurant was staring at us. We had no idea what we had done wrong.This same group of women had come before, ordering the peach Sangria and enjoying time out of our homes. We will not be returning and will ensure that others know of this experience. We didn't deserve it.

Doug Wanoy: Food and service was excellent! When I visited, it was crowded and I had to wait about 15 minutes to be seated at a table, and the food took about 45 minutes from order to being served. However, my server was very attentive and made sure my drinks were topped off, and the manager made sure to be transparent about when my food would be ready. I overheard the kitchen manager being verbally abusive to the wait staff over how many orders they were getting. I have a hard time giving 5 stars to a place that treats their employees this way and the long wait time for the food also dings the score. Would definitely recommend Zivio for take-out as their food is excellent!

Stevie Wunder: Everything was so good. Food and service. Will definitely revisit! The sexy fries were insanely good!Food: 5/5|Service: 5/5|Atmosphere: 5/5 …More

Sarah Sting: If I could give it more than 5 stars I would. I was blown away by how delicious it was. We got feta dip appetizer which even my toddler loved. I got a vegetarian platter and my husband got the lamb dip, both were absolutely amazing. Our server was also very friendly. 100% would eat here again.

Joshua Marcotte: Straight up the best Euro I've ever had in my life

Brian L: Decided to treat ourselves to a dinner out this evening. Stopped by Zivio and was immediately seated. Started with a few drinks. We had the Mediterranean Chicken Kabob and Chicken Shawarma. Both dishes were very tasty and filling. We had the Nutella Cheesecake for dessert, highly recommended! The smoothest/creamiest cheesecake we’ve ever had! Shout out to our server Lucas for the suggestion! Had great service from Lucas too, thank you for a great evening! 😃

Charity Lytle: Everything on the menu looked amazing so it was hard to decide! I got the Fiery Feta with their homemade "improbable" gyro meat which was very much like typical gyro meat. I think the bread is made in house too. Fries are some of the best I've had in town (extra crispy in a good way) They had a high chair and booster seat available for kiddos and immediate seating at 4:30 for us old folks ;) I did not expect the price point either - very reasonable. Exceptional service and experience all around! Definitely coming back to try more items off the menu or might do take-out.Vegetarian options: Protein alternates were amazing and delicious!Kid-friendliness: Booster seats, high chairs, server brought a plastic water cup with straw to the table without being asked!Parking: Street parking available and lot across the streetDietary restrictions: GF options for wraps rather than breads, option for different protein options, dairy etc

Chelsea Olivares: Very disappointing. Food lacked any sort of flavor. I ordered chicken to add to my pasta dish, and was unable to eat it because it had so much gristle. For the price point I had much higher expectations.

Z Brooks: Our server who seemed to be the only one working today was phenomenal!!! Our table was able to bond over Detroit/Toledo! He held the whole restaurant down. His food recommendations were top notch. Couldn’t ask for a better brunch

Amanda Biber: 5 Stars is an understatement for this gem of a pub!! The pasta dishes and nachos are decadent and the cocktails are imaginative and yummy! Great job y’all 🌞

Marissa Zinn: Elevated yet laid back environment. Great place to grab dinner & drink. Their cocktails were very tasty. The Brussels sprouts appetizer was very flavorful. However I got Bolognese as my entree and it was good but Lacking of a few things. Pasta was over cooked , and I feel like the sauce could have been more flavorful without straying from traditional bolognese. Understanding it probably wasn’t one of their staple dishes, but definitely could use some refinement! Excited to come back and try some of their sandwiches on the menu, I’ve heard good things!
