Best Durum Restaurant Grand Rapids Near Me

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!

Jehan S.: This place is a fantastic rooftop bar and restaurant. The service is incredible and the food and drinks are even better!Food: 5/5|Service: 5/5|Atmosphere: 5/5 …More

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!

william jackson: If you're celebrating something special or if exceptional is your norm, MDRD will not disappoint. Great food, great service, great atmosphere.Food: 5/5|Service: 5/5|Atmosphere: 5/5Recommended dishes Tartar De Ternera, Gambas Al Ajillo, Pulpo a La Gallega, Patatas Bravas …More

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!

Moses Jangala: Delicious food made with fresh ingredients. The staff are really friendly. I chatted with Sanad who was very helpful and answered all my questions about the menu. Highly recommend!

I loveacoustic: I was at the hospital and needed something different than the cafeteria food, which is fine by the way. Qdobas is as closed, so I tried this and it was excellent! Would have again.

scott bernal: Super kind staff, food was delicious and all the sauces are great 😋

Ahlam Soliman: Great to have halal place right in the downtown:) 8 min walk from my work. I go to Le Kabob on the 28th a lot. This one has a smaller menu, but the taste still is great:)The gyro here is not halal. We appreciated the guy told us so.

Barb Walther: The older employee just wasn't happy made my atmosphere nervous but thanks to the younger employee pick up my order and finished it but it still good but busyKid-friendliness: The kids make your own taco kit was good

Hassan Saleh: So so Mediterranean food for Grand Rapids which lacks good Mediterranean, in most other cities this would be the very last option. Prices are a little steep, the shawarma isn’t on a rotisserie. I do like the hummus and the garlic sauce.

gayle littleson: Great food and service. Healthy fresh and cooked to order.

Alex Huckstead: Today me and my wife were visiting a friend in the hospital and wanted some good food. We went to the food court and found le kabob. The man behind the counter helped us out. He said his name was Sanad was very helpful and kind. He gave us our meal which was delicious and we had a very great conversation. I definitely recommend this place the food is amazing and Sanad is my guy now.

deni beganovic: Senad got the food out quick and everything was perfect

Anthony prins (waffles): Went here the other day with a buddy I got a gyro and it was amazing great flavor good texture buddy got something else and it took an extra half a second to cook but still was amazing great customer service and lots of smiles will be back.Returned and was very happy to see my favorite cashier/cook working who recommended my meal, it tasted great and was very quick will be back again love this place.

Jana Scripps: Their food is amazing! Very authentic and fresh! Very happy with their customer service and help with navigating the menu as well! Definitely recommend!

Daisy Fu: So excited to have some ethic options in Downtown medical mile!

Brieonna Garrett: Absolutely love love love! The food was great and the service was excellent!! You have to try the lamb chops and chicken kabobs. Cooked to perfect!

marvin luna: I have been a big fan of the La Kabob local restaurant chain for years. I've been to a few of their locations and I do not remember ever being disappointed.My go to orders include the Beef Shawarma wrap, Falafel Hummus & Tabbouleh wrap, Fattoush Salad, Pita Bread, Hummus and Garlic Spread, and their Fresh Juices.5 star food experience.

Evan Tomczyk: Excellent food and terrific service.

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! Our server Alfie made some fantastic recommendations that helped us eat gluten free & was so good about checking on us - we're only in town for a few days but will likely eat here again.Food: 5/5|Service: 5/5|Atmosphere: 5/5Recommended dishes Mango Sticky Rice …More

Betsy Petersen: So amazing. And so much food!! I ordered the sampler platter for one person and shared it with my 10 and 8 year old and we still had lots leftover at the end!!

Especially the roasted veggies and even the bread and baba ganoush!Kid-friendliness: They have kid meals but the best was just ordering the sampler and giving some to them. More than enough food for all of us!

Joseph Mackay: Stopped in for dinner and was greeted by very nice staff. I was delighted when I was brought some bread and garlic (which was a bit intense).

RANDY: Great Mediterranean food and service. We shared the chicken shawarma, grilled vegetables and a Greek salad. The food was outstanding - hot, fresh and full of flavor with the right amount of spice. Of course the warm pitas with garlic butter, were over the top ! Also the staff are very friendly and attentive to the customers. Highly recommended and can’t wait to return for more delicious food.
