This restaurant is great for families and you can easily let the kids enjoy the playground while waiting for food to come. There are high chairs and kids menus.

We will be back to enjoy more summer meals.

The sandwiches are very generously portioned and my wife (who isn't much of a burger person) loves the salads and Protein Bowl options. The service has always been good, but sometimes they are training new folks, and that's just fine. There are several comfortable tables inside and a nice outside seating area as well. I would not hesitate to try this place if you're in the mood for a great burger.

I've gone to the downtown deli for over 20 years and it's been my favorite deli ever since. However I recently heard that the Ada Grill version has a very good burger. So I ordered the Cowboy Burger ($16). This has two 4 oz burger patties grilled, topped with cheddar cheese, bacon, haystack onions & bbq sauce. It was very good. For Local-ish Burgers it just cracks my top 10. It come with chips, but I upgraded to fries ($3.5). They definitely aren't worth an additional almost 4 dollars. They are good, but also nothing special. I also ordered my favorite deli sandwich of the Phil J ($15.50) to go. It was as good as the downtown location, however I felt ripped off. There was about half the normal chicken salad on it. Also the chips don't travel well if you're refrigerating it for later. The service was excellent. Very friendly and provided quality service. Overall a 4 1/2 star review. Since I have to round, it becomes a 4 due to the small amount of meat on the deli sandwich. Would I return? Overall for the deli side I'll probably stick with downtown location, however for a good dinner yes I would come back.

I'd get a different sandwich next time.

And by god, was I impressed. It's a small little sandwich shop off of Michigan Ave that has seating for maaaybe 20 people. I ordered the spicy chicken sandwich to go, and when I got home to open my box, my jaw dropped. These guys put not one, but TWO mf chicken breast cutlets on this poor, poor bun. Topped with delicious house made pickles (their namesake), a fresh and tangly slaw, and a spicy oily sauce, this thing was a behemoth. And for, like, $15?? This is two meals for the average person. My only complaint was that the bun simply could not shoulder the monstrous burden of what it contained. Additionally, dude the fries are phenomenal. And they absolutely LOAD you up. Get the truffle upcharge, it's worth it I promise. I have been a Two Beards fan for the better part of the past 15 years, but man, in terms of value, The Toasted Pickle takes the cake. I can't wait to experience whatever else these guys are whipping up behind the counter.

I had read on a Facebook group about best Burgers in Grand Rapids that O'Briens was a couple of peoples favorite burger. I ordered the Rodeo Burger ($17). This is a burger with fried onion rings, bacon, lettuce, tomato, chipotle bbq, ranch dressing & melted Vermont cheddar cheese. The burger was good, but nothing special. The burger itself was tasty enough, but a little meh. The onion ring was very good, the veggies were fresh, the Chipotle Bbq sauce was meh. Overall an above average burger that hits the spot, but you won't have dreams of it. It came with a ton of excellent fries though. I couldn't eat them all, but I wanted too. The service was super friendly and very efficient. Kept my drink nice and full, I appreciate that. Overall a 4 star review. Would I return? Yes, but I would try something else.

There is plenty of parking, either on the street or behind the hotel. Parking gets full during events, but we've never had a problem finding a spot. They take reservations, so if you have a larger party, it is a good idea to make one. We usually sit at the bar for dinner if it's just the two of us. The craft cocktails are amazing and the service has always been great each time we've been there. The food is good. We especially loved the Strawberry Brie and Ben Ben shrimp. The wedge salad is one of my staple go-tos. I've also enjoyed the Tavern smashburger, salmon, and fish & chips. They have daily specials on different nights and I can say their Monday night Cavatelli Bolognese special is AMAZING. I give that dish 10 stars. My son loves the wings and says they are the best he's had. Overall a solid 5 stars! The only down side is that the cocktails are pretty expensive, but if you like a unique craft cocktail, treat yourself to one! They change the menu regularly so it's fun to see what they are mixing up.

Service was outstanding and the food was throughly enjoyed across our party of four . I kicked off with deviled eggs and followed with lamb shepherds pie .

Went to Mudpenny for the first time for brunch. Decent crowd on a Saturday. Opted for the Kevin…read moreMalone instead of the Brunchwrap and I think that was the right choice. Burrito is packed full of hash browns, crispy bacon, sausage, egg, and cheese. The only downside to the Kevin Malone is that they use spinach instead of like a chopped lettuce for the burrito and the texture is a little overpowering. Plus, they don't chop the stems off the spinach, so I'd either order it without or pick some pieces out. I feel like the Brunchwrap has a thicker layer of it and as much as mixing in a green is smart, it has to be prepped properly in my opinion. Patatas bravas as a side were fire. The potatoes were roasted and seasoned well. It advertised a garlic aioli, but we did not get that. As with San Chez's patatas bravas, ask for the sauce on the side. It is a very good side of potatoes compared to the thinly, oddly sliced potato slices that came with the breakfast sandwich. They looked like apple slices and were sort of wet and soggy like them too. Nitpicking their spinach prep and refining their side dish of potatoes are really the only notes if someone from Mudpenny is actually reading this and got this far. Great breakfast spot and service was spot on.

Had a late breakfast there this week that I thought might turn into lunch given how long it took to get the food out of the kitchen. Waitress never checked in with us during our long wait. My associate ordered the salmon plate with porches eggs. The eggs came out hard-boiled, and then staff was rude when he asked that the eggs remade. And like the original order, the poached eggs took forever to get out of the kitchen and were cold when they arrived. I Had the avocado toast, which should be delicious. Theirs is not--poorly conceived with flavors that do not meld likely the result of avocado paste versus fresh, massed-with-chunks avocados. The egg white omelet, which is pretty tasty, looks like a mess when it arrives at the table. Their espresso drinks are good.
