K. J. Fruge': When traveling to grand rapids, I always try to make time to visit this wonderful restaurant. They just do things right here. The staff is always friendly and well trained. It’s right downtown so there’s that whole downtown city vibe going on!This trip we ordered white bean and quinoa, patties, calamari, shrimp Fuego. The sauce that accompanied every dish was different and completely delicious. The first bite will captivate your taste buds.And of course you have to get a Mojito.

Yarlene Brooks: It was just OK. Overpriced food

Jackson Brooks: My wife and I came here for an anniversary dinner. The atmosphere was really nice and the food was tasty. I really loved the cheese and cold cuts board. My wife was less impressed than I was though. I think the two things I would say are 1) the different parts of the meal really needed some rice or bread or something to tie it together and 2) although the food was tasty, it really wasn't worth the hefty price. In the end I think my rating would be a 3.5, and although I liked the food well enough I wouldn't go back.

Paul Nikandrou: We wanted to celebrate my fiancée's birthday at the restaurant but it was a disappointment. Couldn't make a reservation for a Saturday, they told me it shouldn't be bad on a Saturday as long as there's no events going on... Arrived at the restaurant and put our name down for a table for the birthday celebration, they refused to tell us an estimated wait time. They also refused to take my phone number and said we had to either stand there OR go to the bar next door... but don't sit at a booth otherwise they will cancel our table.. so basically you are trapped waiting there. Got a few drinks while everyone arrived and as soona s our second round of drinks arrived they came and told us the table is ready but we couldn't bring the drinks... had to chug them on the spot... During the dinner some people order wine for the table and some ordered sangria... When the birthday girl asked for a second glass to pour some sangria, they waitress said that was not possible... had to keep one glass per person... wild stuff!! Needless tol say, I don't plan on spending $400 there again...

Melissa Looman: Yum yum yum- take your taste buds on a journey, you won’t regret eating here over and over again! Service is a little slow in the Spanish style, so make time to linger.

Sharon Hayward: An absolutely amazing experience! Our server, Layne, was the best in many restaurants and many years.I can only say that about a small handful (3) servers in the GR area.The food was delicious, drinks tasty.I look forward to another visit. 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

Jeri G: My husband and I were in town for a national volleyball tournament and were staying at the Marriott across the street. We saw good reviews for San Chez A Tapas Bistro and thought we would give it a try. From the cocktails to the tapas to the coffee drinks to the dessert, we were continually happy with the flavors, service, and overall experience. We have traveled the Midwest, and this is by far the BEST meal we have had in years. Each tapa came out the perfect temperature, and the staff took the time to share their recommendations. Our waitress, Kathleen, checked in with us the perfect amount of time to ensure we had everything we needed. It was a WONDERFUL experience/date night.

Josh McCullough: We come here every time we're in town, and it's never disappointed us. Just last week we were in and got fantastic service from Layne; the food was great as always, his recommendations were spot-on, and he was a very friendly and attentive server. There are always standard 'reliable' plates as well as new ones for us to try, and it's a great restaurant to try new things at. If you've been here then you know, and if you haven't then you owe it to yourself to give it a try.

Ankita Guha: The food tastes great, but they were coming one plate at a time with kids size menu. So if you are in a group you can't really share that just one plate with 8 people. Some of us had to wait a long time before the food came on our table and that was annoying. The Enchiladas came in just 2 small pieces on one plate, not sure how anyone would share that with more than 2 people on a table. And the rest had to just wait until the food came. Felt like forever. 😐

Jane: Hands down the best food I've had in my life so far. The stuffed dates are a food I will remember and think about for the rest of my life. The place has a great atmosphere and even better food.

Reese Clark: Favorite tapas in town!

Chen Seleena: I have been here twice so far and both times we experienced top notch service, food, drinks, ambiance and views.Sophisticated dining for date nights and any special occasions. For tapas, highly recommend grilled octopus, angus beef roasted bone marrow, and medjool dates. For mains, scallops, skate wings and dry aged duck breast are absolutely delicious. For desserts, El Limón and Árbol De Caramelo both in terms of presentation and taste are just phenomenal!!I would also like to give the amazing, attentive, knowledgeable servers Alyssa and Lauren a big shout out!

Charles P. Rutherford II: Top 3 best meals of my life. Drinks list was fantastic, the view from the top of the hotel was amazing and the food was absolutely incredible. We visited on a Tues and patrons were dressed to impress.Food: 5/5|Service: 5/5|Atmosphere: 5/5 …More

Deena Sheidler: I made a trip here while at Tulip Time this year and what a treat!Every member of the staff was on top of our needs. The drinks were fantastic and the tapas really were fantastic. Desserts were entirely unique as I had never experienced anything so beautiful to look at and magical to eat.I will be back 🙂

Alex Bengtson: Yeah this place is absolutely perfect. From the service, to the wine, to the cuisine, to the views. Wow.

Gabrielle Hensch: Everything is super beautiful here. From the decor to the view to the presentation of the food, it's all beautiful. I will say that as someone who doesn't eat most meats or seafood, the menu was a bit intimidating but I ended up getting several of the appetizers as my main meal as well as some beautiful drinks and dessert. Definitely recommend!

Brandon's Equipment Videos: I was invited to MDRD for a special occasion. I had never heard of this restaurant, but after looking at other reviews, I developed high expectations. I do have to say that MDRD lived up to those expectations! The view from the 27th floor is great. Brandon, our server, was very patient with explaining the different food options to our party and accommodating our requests. Our meals started with an olive garnish. Green olives are not my favorite, but it was still a nice touch. We ordered several tapas, which are essentially smaller plates of food that can be shared with the whole table. I highly recommend the lamb chops, they were by far my favorite dish that I tasted that night! I also enjoyed the prawns. The jamon y queso tapa was not my favorite, but everybody else seemed to enjoy it. For my main course I had the ribeye steak. The steak was very flavorful and cooked to my liking. I love how the ribeye was bone in, as that adds a lot of flavor. Of course, this restaurant is expensive, but that goes without saying. If you are looking for a unique fine dining experience in the Grand Rapids area, this would definitely be one of my top picks!

Julie: We had a reservation 3 months out for our anniversary and they sat us at the worst table in the whole restaurant. We were within 10” of each table next to us with no window view. The only reason this restaurant has 5 star reviews is because of the views. I’m not spending $200 on a meal to sit elbow to elbow with other diners. The food was mediocre and the drinks were overpriced… so many other restaurants and bars have better options for this price range. We took our business to Leo’s.Parking: Half price with validation

Debbie Tyler: My husband and I shared the salmon app, small paella and dates instead of dessert. My husband had the Expat bourbon cocktail. Although still very good, the paella was our least favorite. The others were some of the best we’ve ever had. Our service was excellent and the ambiance aligned with the experience- top notch!

Al Roberts: Great food and Adam was an awesome bartender!

David: Very good service. Really nice views of downtown area. Nice private room for small parties. Drinks we very good. Food obviously was amazing. Croquetas and lamb chops were my favorite. We kept either the Talas menus.Parking: Parking was downstairs super easy

Randi Claybaugh: The perfect date night/special occasion spot. Do yourself a favor and get a reservation during sunset.

Sarah Gebben: A rating of five stars is insufficient for this dining experience! Higher ratings should be available for establishments such as this! My husband and I had our first dining experience here for my birthday, after the recommendation of a friend. Parking validation for half of the parking fee is available conveniently across the street. The views from any table in the restaurant are breathtaking. Our taste buds were set alight with the main courses that we ordered. I had the lobster paella and he had the filet a la plancha. Both brought exquisite high def flavors to our taste buds! We completed the experience with the limon dessert, and I am still left puzzled as to how they worked such culinary magic with that creation! We are so fortunate to live in a town with such a world class restaurant at our fingertips!

Kyle H.: Brought my partner here on a special date and was not disappointed. Second time dining at MDRD and this time was ever better than the last. We had an idea of we wanted to order, but our server helped steer our choices toward some of the staff picks. I would definitely suggest asking what your server likes, because you won’t be disappointed!

Leo DiPierro: Phenomenal dining experience punctuated by excellent service. The setting, ambience, and flavors all melded together for an unforgettable evening. Listened to our server’s recommendation and were extremely pleased with how everything turned out!

Jessy Valentine: The fish and chips i ordered was well prepared and tasted good but it was the only option on the menu i could order and I wasnt really in the mood for it. This one doesnt cater to easily upset stomach, everything is pork, cheese, or spicy.Wheelchair accessibility: I use a wheelchair and it was not easy to get through, they do provide a ramp but the tables are densely packed. When leaving i had to get out of my wheelchair and hop down two stairs because there was no room to get back to the ramp.

Dan Holmes: You like your taste buds don't you? But you probably take them for granted. Maybe you go days, even weeks without even thinking about your taste buds.How do you sleep at night? Ignoring your trusty ol' buds like that?Here's a way to treat your buds to a special gift: dine at Roam. Your buds will do a cartwheel. Not literally. That would be a health risk.Roam offers street food from around the world. Without having to leave Michigan, you can taste menu items from Latin America, Europe, Africa, Asia, you name it.Do you have a hard time making everyone in your party happy? That won't happen at Roam. Everyone can find something they love.

Caitlin W.: I ordered the Singapore curry, a vegetarian (I think vegan, actually) coconut curry with tofu, potatoes, and other vegetables. There were some pickled onions included that were a really nice contrast to the other flavors. It came with white rice and some tasty paratha. It was all good.The restaurant has some neat lanterns hanging from the ceiling, but I didn't get a picture of them. My server was efficient and friendly.It's a bit on the pricey side, but not outrageous.

C F: Decent enough for a small bite/drink. The veggies with the hummus looked like they found them in the bottom of the bin, the burgers were very greasy- like puddle of grease on the plate that soaked through the bun/sit in your stomach heavily for hours type, the fried potato bites i really wanted to be good but they did not have any flavor beyond potato/oil. I'm thinking it was an off day.

Allen Ross: Many interesting dishes for a diverse selection of tastes. Recommend sharing dishes between several people as I would not have wanted to eat a couple of our dishes as a single entree. The Bao were fab! If I was to get a single entree, the Bao would be it.

Brett Dilley: This place is almost perfect. Eclectic, they have vegetables, international flair, etc. I had the skewers though and they were like rubber. Great drink. Tasted like an Astro pop. Spare ribs were assumed incorrectly to be like kalbi...they were a pile of just spare ribs without a sharp enough knife to attack them.Service was very attentive, ambiance is good as well.

Lilly Baker: I only went here once, but I wasn't overly impressed with the menu options, especially for the price point. Off course that is just my personal opinion, but I probably won't be back. I did have a fun cocktail that had a popsicle in it, but the food wasn't as good or as much of quantity as we were hoping for the prices.

Explore With Steggie: Fantastic experience! We will definitely add Roam to our regular restaurant rotation. Loved the vibe! Slim but good wine list. The apps were really my favorite part of the menu. I may just focus on starters and wine next time. Several vegetarian options. Our server, Ashley, was very attentive and gave great suggestions on the food and the wine. We took the Mango Sticky Rice to go.Vegetarian options: Loved the Hash Balls, Samosas, and Suppli. All were vegetarian appetizers and so delicious!

Jodi Smith: Walking by & found this gem of a restaurant. The curry delicious, but the mango sticky rice was straight up life changing!
