a chinese meal in a paper container
Michael N.

We decided to try this place on a whim and were very happy we made that choice today. It seems to be a family run business, since the only staff was a mom dad son and daughter. We're happy to support family owned businesses and this will be our go to spot for Chinese now. The hunan beef was juicy and tender, almost like biting into butter. Rice portions were fair, and the egg drop soup was warm and savory. The only small thing that we didn't like, was that the orange chicken dish had too much orange. The orange peels were too thick, making the dish bitter once bitten into. Great food, great prices, and speedy service. We will come back 100%.

Hair in the food!

Found a hair in my food... yikes. (And I know for sure it's not mine because I have a different texture) It was sticking to a broccoli. It's really too bad--I've gone here before for a couple years and never had any complaints. But this does it for me. Beware of the food you receive from Jia Yuan!!

Lunch Kung Pao Chicken

Kung Pao Chicken was really good. It could be spicier, but that's just me. If you go in the winter keep your coat on, i dont think there is heat. Also no buffet like advertised. The buffet is storage.

Kids are decorates the wall. Pretty cool.

Good food but the place is filthy inside. Egg rolls are always so greasy but everything I have ever had there is good. And fast prep.

The Parker rolls may seem 'regular' but they do rolls WELL! They are soft with a slightly hard top (in a good way) with a fluffy and whipped butter. The burger is classic and do NOT skip the added fries! The steak was also delicious, although I am not a steak connoisseur so I think it was similarly good as the hanger steak from a previous experience. The ambiance is romantic and laid back with dim lights and impeccable service!

Second time coming to Gin Gin's. Made a reservation many weeks ago and was seated promptly…read more Service was not as attentive tonight as the last time we came. We ordered our cocktails and waited alittle while to get them. Food was overall delicious. But unfortunately my Wagyu NY strip was slightly disappointing. With six pieces of steak - only 4 were eaten. The other two were way too tough and/or fatty. Kind of unfortunate for a $63.00 steak à la carte with no sides. The sides were all delicious. And my husband loved his pasta dish. We took a key lime pie home to go. It was fantastic! The wedge salad was okay - nothing special. This place is obviously popular. And I remember it being so much better last time. I just expect more when we spend so much on our meal. Very noisy but that is the same as before. It is a popular bar spot so I expect the noise. I wish I could say more positive things about our dinner. My cocktail was pretty good! And the macaroni and cheese was pretty amazing.

Grace, our kind waitress, really took the time to explain and go through everything with my grandpa who had many dietary restrictions due to health reasons. The food came out quickly and it was so delicious. I shared the calamari with my girlfriend and we devoured it so fast I forgot to take a picture. The ribeye was a perfect medium rare but I wanted to highlight the demi-glace. It had such a pretty sheen that you want the glossy sauce to be. It made their Brussel sprouts a focal point for me. The atmosphere was great--elegant and classy. Exactly what you'd expect from a restaurant that won best steakhouse in Grand Rapids. All I really asked when I booked my table was a nice night to celebrate with my family and the team at Leo's delivered. I felt like I was in my own world with my family. I also enjoyed my cast away cocktail because it was very smooth. Coconut, lime, and a hint of Mango. Milk-clarified to excellence in a glass. I would come here again to celebrate anything! Worth the splurge for sure.

The staff were all very friendly and helpful. Everything on the menu sounded so delicious and our server helped us narrow it down to some great recommendations.

The gumbo was also spicy but full of flavor. My wife loved her gumbo paired with the honey pecan shrimp appetizer. Our cocktails were also perfect and the drink list is great.

This has shrimp and crayfish smothered in a rich Cajun sauce over rice. The shrimp were very large and delicious. The whole dish was perfectly cooked. I would definitely recommend this to anyone. It was the perfect portion size as I was stuffed. I also ordered their Louisiana Albita Root Beer ($4). How have I never heard of this brand, it is fantastic. One of the best Canned Root Beers I've had. The service was very good. Super friendly and efficient. The only advice I could give was my waitress needs to speak up, she had too quite a voice. The cook and also a manager or owner came out and asked how everything was. Excellent, you guys are doing something the right way. Overall an easy 5 star review. Would I return? Absolutely! New Orleans cuisine done right.

The bad news was they were small. The worse news they were the best Chicken I've had in Grand Rapids. They have something call crack spice on it and it is definitely crack and it is addicting. The chicken was absolutely perfectly fryed. I could have eaten a lot more than the wings I had. The batter itself is very tasty too. The spice goes perfectly with their fries too. There's nothing special about the fries themselves but add the crack and they are crack. Lastly I had their blue Koolaid and it was delicious too. The service was a little weird. The cook kept answering my questions from back in the kitchen, but she spoke softly and I could barely hear her. Apparently the cashier overcharged me and they offered to refund that, so they are honest. Everyone was friendly though. It takes about 20 minutes to cook, so beware. Overall a little strange but the food is definitely worth a 5 star review. Would I return? Absolutely.

Plus no bathroom so we will have to go somewhere else to get a bathroom break. Do not recommend and I have no idea what the food situation is.
