Great steaks and ribs. Wonderful atmosphere and wait staff. We live within walking distance so this is by far our favorite restaurant to dine in and to order out. read more

Stopped on a late Saturday afternoon and there was plenty of seats. There was a large bar rail so we sat at the bar. The bartender was fast and friendly. Their pizza was really good with fresh toppings and crunchy crust. read more

I stopped by for lunch they had some great lunch specials! My coworker tried the fried cod with chips she thought it was delicious. It has two pieces of cod, tomatoes, lettuce and tarter sauce on the side. I ordered chicken marsala, seasonal potatoes along with the side Caesars salad and sliced lemons. My food was excellent!!! I loved the chicken but the potatoes were my favorite. They were tossed in butter and garlic yummy!!! read more

My favorite restaurant in Ionia. Lunch specials and Happy Hour, pizza, burgers, Mexican, Italian and wings. Homemade soups, varies daily. And salads. Love the salad with sautéed shrimp and scallops and lemon vinaigrette dressing. Pizza and Stomboli are very good. Traditional Italian entrees. Nice, clean atmosphere. Staff friendly, service good. read more

Good was outstanding. Service was great. Ambiance was well above average. We Wii definitely be returning.

The service was good. The onion rings were pretty good. If you order the calzone, know that it will come doused in garlic butter "sauce". It was soggy and not many toppings inside with a lot of thick crust. The 3 of us that got them didn't even want to take the leftovers and they are so large there was a lot left on the plates. read more

Ordered the fettuccine jambalaya that has Italian sausage, shrimp and chicken with a tomato sauce. The taste and size was very good. Table area was clean and service was friendly. read more

Very pleasantly surprised, finding this when searching for something near the freeway as we traveled. The soup & salad lunch special was HUGE, didn't expect that! Thought it would be a small side salad, cup of soup & a soft breadstick. Choice of Caesar or garden salad, very good. Soup of the day or tomato bisque. Chose the tomato bisque--it was SO flavorful & good, a very large bowl, and a little cup with shaved cheese & croutons for the top. Expected one breadstick, per the menu, but there were too large ones on the plate. They were just ok, ate part of one. Didn't seem really fresh & warm or garlic flavored as listed. Our server was terrific, friendly & quick. Place inside is like a sports bar, lots of TVs. A very enjoyable lunch though, and very inexpensive. read more

Tried the Meatball Melt today, my husband has the Chicago Hot Beef. Both were amazing! Our server, Lauren, was great too! Cute place tucked away in Portland that is reasonably priced. Been there twice now, we'll be back again! read more

Disappointed.. Alfredo was lacking depth and tasted like butter... only.. burger was a frozen patty.. and over done. Over priced for the quality read more

We live in a city 30 minutes south of Portland and this place popped up when I googled where to eat. 100% happy with our experience. I had the blackened chicken salad and my husband had the steak sandwich... also shrimp appetizer (photo). It was so good. Parking is hard but they have tons of seating which makes it easy to get a table even on a Friday night. I'm excited to go back. read more

Olivera's Restaurant - Firecracker shrimp - Pizza Near Me - Portland, Michigan

Two of us for mid-week dinner. I started with the request of a cup of their daily soup, Cream of chicken and asparagus. I guess they only offer the bowl of soup with hot garlic bread stick, because that is what was served. If only item ordered $6.99, but if you add it to your entree order $2.99 - a really good deal. I took half home, and it was delicious the next day. I tried their Hot Beef Ciabatta with melted cheese and aus jus ($13.99), upgraded to French fries ($1.50 upcharge) and a side salad. The side salad was huge for $2,99. I'm a big fan of French dips, and had high hopes for their version based on the soup and salad great experience....unfortunately the beef was overcooked and dry, and not much of it on the huge ciabatta roll. My companion ordered the Chicken apple green salad. Slices of granny Smith and red apple, greens and grilled chicken $15.99. Nothing special, greens and apples were fresh. Pretty good list of craft beers and wines by the glass. Staff very friendly. read more

Loved the large dinner salad with oysters and shrimp. Fresh greens. My 2 sons and their children enjoyed their meals also Ht read more

Ordered a pizza and bread sticks for take out. The bread sticks were what they call their " cheesy" bread sticks. What we received was bread sticks with cheese just in the middle. 70 percent of the bread sticks were not covered in cheese and didn't have any of the butter or Parmesan like they used to have. I asked for a marinara sauce for dipping, and we did not receive this in our order. The pizza looked like it was thrown together by a child. The toppings were scares, and it was cut all wonky. It looked like a sloppy mess. For thirty dollars I really expected better. read more

I ordered takeout pizza from a recommendation I received from my wife. The pizza is solid, but it's not a game changer. It is everything you love about pizza, but you can get the same thing anywhere. The service was great and the pizza was on time and very hot. I only spent a few minutes inside, but from what I noticed it had great lighting and was clean. read more

I came in at 9 for dinner with my husband. We sat at the bar, all was well until at about 9:40ish an older lady I would assume is a manager (she was taller with blonde hair) started to yell at a younger girl very rudely with customers all around and other employees. It seemed very unprofessional especially if she was to be the manager. It's very sad to see young girls being treated like this! Do better!! (other wise food was good) read more

Stopped in to see what was good, and saw some very interesting pizzas on the menu. We ordered a thin crust Sicilian pizza, topped with mushrooms, artichokes, ham, red onion, tomatoes, and garlic herb sauce. The flavor was outstanding and the crust was perfectly crisp. So good! The place is modern, clean, and there's ample parking. Food aside, I left my cell phone there and didn't realize it til hours later when I was across the state. Some good person turned it in and Olivera's kept it secure til I returned the next day. This type of kindness and honesty impresses me, and I wish them great success and blessings. read more

I ordered Chicken wet burrito and it was not good at all. The inside of the wrapper wad just filled with dried carved chicken breath in big slices and no test to it. It topped with tomatoe sauce. Very disappointed. read more

Great restaurant and sports bar area in the back. The place is a great spot for family or to watch some sports games. The original breadsticks are amazing! I've also had their pizza which is very good as well. This time I had one of the Ciabatta Italian oven sandwiches. It was light on the toppings but an overall tasty sandwich. The service staff is great. Went in for lunch in a Sunday and was in and out in about 45 min. I could've stayed all day to watch the games but just didn't have the time. read more

Awesome service! We stopped on a Saturday night after a MSU game and they got us right in and we got pub fries as appetizer along with bbq chicken pizza and fish & chips. Everything was excellent! Our server was Kira and she was so helpful and on it with all, especially refills of water after a hot day in the sun at the game! read more

love this place really huge fan of the fettucine alfredo. Have been here several times and left happy and full every time

What a great surprise! Met our daughter there during the week and were blown away by the great food, great service, and great layout of the restaurant. We will be coming back for sure. read more

Third stop on our progressive dinner tonight. The food was so great. It ended up taking is about 10 mins longer to get here than we anticipated in our travels, but our food was still piping hot, steam coming from the food when I opened it! The chicken wasn't over cooked at all, cutting it you could see all the yummy juices, and the mushrooms & onions were cooked to perfection, they held their shape, not mushy at all. The fries has a crispy texture and you didn't even need ketchup they were good on their own! If I ever pass here again in my travels I will definitely go. read more

Boom. Perfect spot unless you're just incapable of being pleased. Atmosphere is great, food was better than expected and there is something for all the picky eaters in your family. Loads of beer taps and sports on all the screens. Service was a tad slow, but let's be honest, you don't have anything important to do today. read more

I ordered a medium rare burger for takeout. My receipt shows it was put in as medium. What I received was well done, without a trace of pink. I paid $4.50 for 7 onion rings that were not seasoned. The menu online says the onion ring appetizer includes a dipping sauce. On my receipt I was charged an additional $.50 for my sauce. Very disappointed. read more

Phenomenal place. The wait staff is always in a great mood. The rotating draft beer never disappoints (mostly local beers). The food... I wish I could speak for the entire menu but I've been so obsessed with the wet burrito I have barely ventured beyond that. read more

Great food and service. I had the jumbolia and it was awesome. Just the correct amount of spice. Jill my server was pleasant and so sweet. She didn't overly check up on me. This is going to be my new dinner stop when I'm coming home from training for work or even hockey. read more

Stopped in today because we had a gift certificate. Was seated by the manager who was friendly and offered menus right away. We ordered two Stromboli and waited about 20 minutes. When they came to the table they were enormous, hot, and great. We quickly ordered two more to take home for our teenage boys. The Stromboli is large enough that it is easily two meals. Tried the cannoli for dessert and it was done well. Nice treat to end the meal. Will definitely try again. Trust. read more

Coming from both sides of the state, my siblings and I meet at Olivera's in Portland few times a year! The food and service there are great! We are never disappointed! The last time we were there I had left my wallet in the booth, the manager called me to let me know they found it under the booth and would mail it back since I live about an 1.5 hours away! I wasn't concerned about what was inside so much but the wallet was a gift from my husband who passed away recently! I didn't get managers name but have so much appreciation for him!! Thank you!! read more

We had the best experience at Oliveras! The atmosphere is great, the spinach dip appetizer was the best I have ever had and the dinner entrees were all so well done, we will need to go back and try more of them. Our servers (Caelyn and Carly) were amazingly attentive, super friendly, helpful with menu selections, and our drinks were never empty! read more

I had a burger that was actually cooked the way I ordered it, medium extremely unusual for a restaurant. The fries were good and our server was nice. read more

Nice addition to Portland. Conveniently located right off the highway exit. New, fresh and clean. Good tap line. Burrito is a high light on the menu. Lots of TVs to watch the game. I'll be back. read more

I'm addicted to the wet burritos. Everyone is amazing. We stopped in today after a long afternoon at the beach. Made it just ahead of the dinner rush. Kids each had something different, and everybody raved. Seriously though, get the wet burrito your first time. They absolutely kill it. read more

Nice surprise, large menu, lots of Italian foods, pizza, ribs, salads, burgers... wow....tv, outdoor seating. Coming back for more, full bar and happy hour until 6pm too read more

One of my favorite places to have dinner in Portland. The fettuccine alfredo with blackened chicken is so delicious! The staff is friendly and great as well. read more

Tried out this restaurant based on Yelp reviews and we are not familiar with the area at all. So glad we did. The food was fantastic and ice cold beer. Blackened chicken salad, lasagna, Stromboli and flat pizza - everything was delicious!! Will definitely be back when we're in the area. read more

A+ service and food! Met a friend for dinner and was wonderfully pleased with excellent service from the moment we arrived! Our waitress was awesome! Her food recommendations did not disappoint either. Food was fast hot and delicious! The atmosphere was family friendly. It also was not loud so conversation was a joy! Definitely will make this my stopping place when I'm in Portland. Bravo read more

Stopped for lunch because of the yelp reviews. Ordered fish and onion rings to spilt. Got fish and fries instead. The fries and the onion rings tasted if the frier had not been changed in a long time. Ordered a beer, and got the beer right about the time we were done with our meal. Needless to say will not be back. It's a sports bar with country music playing and all the art work is Italian. Very confusing to say the least. read more

The place is new and fabulous! I'm not from the area, but frequently meet family nearby. I didn't love the Yelp reviews so I was hesitant to try. WOW! Where do I start?! As soon as I walked in I was surprised by the sports bar/ brewery appeal. Every game you wanted to watch was playing and there was no lack of TVs! It wasn't overbearing so to disrupt a family meal (exactly what I was there for). Secondly, the pictures hanging throughout were an eye full! Both scenic photos and food that really made me want to chow down were all about. Our server was attentive and had a great smile. Now for the menu! There was an option for every palate, not just your typical burgers and chicken, but pastas, nachos, fried pickles, salad varieties, seafood varieties, pizza, you name it. Then there's the alcoholic menu: wine, liquor, drafts, crafts, flights, bottled. Thank you! I don't want to go next door any more. Will be back soon. read more
