Just did a takeout order today. Everything was great. Excellent fish and chips with a delicious "breading." Family members had a fish sandwich, a Brooklyn Rueben, a BLT, and a Santa Fe melt. No one was disappointed. The fries with the fish and chips are the steak fry type and were very tasty. Their cole slaw is exemplary. Honestly, I had forgotten how good they are for a hearty lunch. read more

Waiting 40 minutes and still no sandwiches. Apparently phone orders tale precedence over folks actually standing here in their store. No wonder they ask for the take-out tip before you get your food read more

Usually this place is pretty good but we also have not been here in a bit. To say we were disappointed this time - may be an understatement. My French dip was okay by itself, but the au jus sauce was so salty I couldn't use it. It was like kicking straight salt. Maybe the worst au jus sauce I've ever had. My son had the Gorgonzola tortellini w steak. Was good not great. My wife had the southwest salad and it was good, nothing special. Service was good. Kitchen seemed slow. read more

Ok food. Ordered the California Reuben, the turkey meat was abundant...but cold in middle. The sandwich would have been excellent if the entire sandwich was hot. The potato salad was absolutely fantastic and I wish I had bought some to take home. The fries were cold and not really that good. We did have to go upstairs to get to the restaurant I imagine there is an elevator somewhere. To me not really worth the drive from GR to meet my friend. Well I mean my friend was good company! read more

Schnitz Ada Grill - Philly Cheese Steak replaced provolone with American cheese - Sandwiches Near Me - Ada, Michigan

So very sad... this was my all time, top of the line, favorite, most stupendous deli must haves - in the past. Admittedly, I haven't been in some time so I jumped at the invite from my buds. I ordered my ol' Phil J's standby. What? There literally was no chicken salad on the sandwich! Well, actually that would have been better as they may have simply forgotten to add it??!! There was such a minuscule amount on that sandwich, it was laughable. This makes my heart sad. C'mon Schnitz. Bring back your stellar performance. read more

Awesome spot with yummy choices. Fun mixed drinks. Love you can sit outside when weather allows. Parking o site & nearby. read more

Schnitz Ada Grill - Sandwiches Near Me - Ada, Michigan

Good food, although their menu board on the deli area posts the lunch prices, and their dinner costs can be significantly higher. They also have closed earlier than posted hours on several occasions that I tried to order, leaving us without a meal option we were led to believe was available. That's not appreciated, as they may have been slow that evening, but turning away paying customers can leave a lasting negative impression, regardless of the quality of the meal. read more

More than your typical sandwich shop. Fun atmosphere and great service in a great part of old Ada.

Great sandwiches, fast service, they have kids meal options, and the staff was friendly! Indoor and outdoor dining options. Lunch time so we ordered at the counter and then sat where we wanted! read more

First time eating at this restaurant this early afternoon; would definitely return!!! First off there is limited parking on the street in front and in back of the restaurant. If you drive south past the restaurant on Ada Dr it's not even half a block to some excellent parking. The restaurant has very poor signage so it's easy to miss. It's up about a flight and a half of stairs, I did not think to check for accessibility, sorry! Totally charming venue, casual great bar feel with wood floors and tables etc. Massive bar against the back wall. You order at the counter and they bring it to your table. Lady running the counter super nice, young lady who delivered our drinks also super nice, young man who brought us our food not super nice. They got the order wrong, had to be sent back, and we literally got a full in the face eye roll and disgusted look - save it for the cook who got the order wrong, not our fault dude. Normally that level of rude would drop this review to a 1 or 2 star but we weren't here to deal with his snit. We sat comfortably in front of the fireplace. Food was delicious when it finally came. Enjoyed the relaxed atmosphere and the view out the windows on this winter day. read more

Schnitz Ada Grill - Warm and inviting. - Sandwiches Near Me - Ada, Michigan

good sandwiches and good service! Great place to stop for lunch or dinner. gluten free available upon request

One of our favorite places ! Great food / drinks & service is always fantastic! Never disappointed..

always good but had the perch dinner tonight. Best perch ever and the sides were perfect. sat at the bar and the staff was great.

Schnitz is a reliably comfortable place to meet your friends and neighbors. Despite its usual dinner hour crowd, their upstairs location in a tree lined section of Ada can have a cozier and quieter feel than other spots in town in that it has an enjoyable outdoor space for nice weather gatherings, an inside fireplace for cooler days. Other pluses include generally good service, craft beers and a delicious menu that expands on the Schnitz deli traditions. read more

The food was great, everything was fairly priced for the amount of food they give. I had the French dip and the Au Jus was very flavorful and added the perfect amount of saltiness to my sandwich. The BLT sandwich had a ton of crispy bacon in it, they do not skimp out on the good stuff!! The only reason this place got a 2 star and we won't be back, is because we asked if anything was included with the sandwich.. to which our waitress replied yes chips or fries. But when we got our check, we got charged for our sides, and when I asked she tried to reissue her statement and asked if that made sense to me. I guess it never made sense to me because in the 7 years I was a server, if someone asked if something was INCLUDED it meant it came with the meal. After reading a few other reviews it makes me skeptical why we were charged. If you do come here, just keep in mind nothing actually comes included with your sandwich. read more

According to the reviews, this place is very hit or miss. We came for a late night dinner with a group of 6 people. We were seated right away and our server was very friendly. We sent one drink back because it was made incorrectly but they quickly made a new one and were very apologetic. I ordered the fish and chips with a side salad and it was huge. A few people had salads that were also massive. The fish and chips were tasty and cooked well. The light breading was a relief compared to other restaurants. I didn't love the breading but I did like that it was only lightly breaded. A few people tried my coleslaw but no one could really decide if they enjoyed it or not. Overall, we had an enjoyable experience. Our service was friendly and the food was tasty. read more

Two words. Stay away. Went to this establishment this afternoon for some lunch after a morning conference at a large corporation across the street. Met the rest of my party there and got in line to order my food. (No table service during lunch hours - stand in line and order your food at the register) As it was slightly busy, a hostess was walking up the line to take preorders so that the line could move along at the register. Nice idea, props for that. She's actually the hero and only saving grace of this story. When it was my turn to order, I asked if I could order a different sandwich than what was in the menu. I was assured this was not a problem, happens all the time. I ordered a corned beef sandwich on rye, specifically like this... Rye bread, butter the rye, mound of corned beef, lettuce, double Swiss, with mustard. Nothing about toasting it, nothing about heating the corned beef. Pretty simple sandwich, right? I also ordered a side of cole slaw and a water to drink. Drinks are self- serve. Total came out to $16.17. I left a 3.20 tip, which I think is pretty decent for a self-serve lunch. I received my cole slaw at the counter before I left. Got my water and sat at the table waiting for my sandwich. Sandwich arrived. Wrong. Cold bread, warm meat. Nope, not what I ordered. Sent it back. Ok... mistakes happen. I can wait. I even made sure to reinforce what I wanted. Second sandwich came out. Wrong. Everything toasted. Again, sent back, and reiterated what I ordered. Third sandwich arrived. Wrong. No butter, no cheese. This time I just said this is ridiculous and asked for my money back. I was refunded for the sandwich, they kept the money for the slaw (fair, I suppose - I did eat it after all), but they also had the nerve to keep the tip. Really? You think you deserve a tip after all that? Three sandwiches and you couldn't get one right? I served myself everything else or it was handed to me at the counter. As I stated earlier, the hero of the story is the hostess, who witnessed the whole event and brought me a huge brownie in an attempt to help make things right. I certainly do appreciate her. I hope she gets the tip. You can bet that'll be my last visit to this place. If I could give it zero stars, I would. read more

Came here with a friend for lunch and the menu is huge with many different sandwiches pus build your own option. I ordered a warm roast beef with provolone and a horseradish Mayo on a brioche bun. Everything was delicious, the only wish was that there was more of a horseradish flavor. The roast beef was lean and plenty of it. Instead of fresh fries that are delicious, I ordered a broccoli salad for my side. The broccoli salad is so sooo good. Nice fresh, crisp broccoli very lighted dressed with bacon and I believe some sesame seeds too. You order at the counter and then find a seat. We came earlier (11:30) and found a booth, but the place started filling up (tables socially distanced) shortly after. Good place for a quality sandwich. read more

Not their finest hour... We just returned from Schnitz after a couple of recent less than stellar visits. Due to the inattentive host and waiter service and food that was not prepared well by the kitchen, we will choose other places to go. Certainly not worth the value for the experience. Things have fallen off there in the past year and Ada deserves better options, which they fortunately have. I hope this review gives this once excellent family establishment an opportunity to reset and set higher expectations for good food and service. read more

Great place. Nice bartender. Family friendly. Have been there over a dozen times, will continue to go back.

Sandwiches are best in town, fries are darn good as well. Chicken noodle soup and chicken tenders are kids favorites.

Great service at this second floor restaurant. Only drawback is thee is no way to get there except the staircase. Be that as it may, really good food with a lot of choices! Very nice decor in an interesting setting. I'll definitely be back. read more

Ordered their Shnitzel Ruben and chicken noodle soup. Delicious and fast! Their sandwiches are so large definitely enough for two people! read more

Yummy food and nice outdoor balcony seating area overlooking downtown Ada. Will be back for sure.

Ok, we'll get this out of the way. Mark is the snarkiest bartender around. If you want polite and friendly, go to Applebee's. Mark is great. And the food is top notch, as is their happy hour. read more

When working in the area I always try and make it over for Lunch when I can. This place has some of the best sandwiches and service around. Friendly staff and the food comes out very fast. Always fresh meats and a wide variety of breads to choose from. My favorite by far is the Italian Hoagie. It comes stacked high with Italian cold cuts, lettuce, tomato, banana peppers, onion, oil and vinegar, and mayo. I usually get mine toasted which I think adds to the flavor. They have several other specialty sandwiches to choose from with a wide variety of meats, cheeses, and breads. They also offer a few Vegan options. The soups are all homemade and full of flavor. I have yet to find one that I didn't like! I would highly recommend this place to anyone looking for something a little different that still gives you that "Homey" feel. read more

I've been coming here for years and have had some amazing meals and some not so great ones but overall most of the options are great. I always love their bourbon options and goat cheese app. Wasn't a fan of the turkey wrap at shnitz but I didn't want one of the bigger sandwiches so I went with that as a lighter option. Rare occurrence though as I have had at least 5 other sandwiches that were fantastic over the years. read more

Not sure what happened to this place, but it seems to have gone downhill. On previous visits to get sandwiches for lunch, I noted it did not seem as good as the Schnitz location on Fulton. Since then, the gap appears to have widened further. The last sandwich I got there had meat on it that did not have a fresh taste or consistency, and my son thought his was 'not really very good'. Not terrible sandwiches, but nothing I would venture out for. We recently had a guests in town and my wife suggested we all come here for dinner. I had not been here for dinner in a long time, but my recollection of that evening was pretty dim, so I agreed to try it again. My son got a 'build your own burger' (usually a reasonably safe option for a kid.) I noticed he was not really eating it although he had initially said he was really hungry. I asked him if I could take a bite of his burger and I instantly understood what was going on: the meat was definitely of lower quality with a gristly texture and very dry. The bun was actually kind of stale and the fries that came with it were starchy and tasteless. I ordered the "Grouper" for myself, which was a definite mistake. I was really off my game ordering grouper here because I'm aware that you shouldn't ever order grouper unless you really trust the place you're ordering it from. Many places try to pass off fish like weakfish, tilapia or scamp as grouper. Now, I'm not saying I was served an inferior fish labeled as grouper, but it was suspiciously thin for grouper and was really overly seasoned - something that should never be done with this fish. In any case, it was awful. Normally, I am not one to angrily send back food or question the establishment about the veracity of their sourcing, but I have done that when I've gotten a truly questionable or terrible dish. On this occasion, I did not because we had guests present as well as our children who just wanted to get out of there as soon as we were done. My friend got the chicken piccata and although he politely said it was "ok". I asked for a bite and realized he really was just being polite - it was terrible; greasy and overly salted. My oldest boy, who is quite tolerant and soft-spoken, pulled me aside and whispered to me "Dad, can we not come here again?" I reassured him we would not return. read more

This has been a 'go-to' dinner, lunch, and cocktail place for the past couple of years. Jeff, the owner is always accommodating and friendly. The staff are aware of GF options. I always order the wedge salad because it is one of the best. Their deli doesn't disappoint friends either, with sandwiches, salads, soups. Off the restaurant menu I and fiends have also enjoyed the pulled pork tostadas (on corn tortillas), pan seared tuna, steamed broccoli, and salmon. There bloody mary's aren't GF but there margarita's, martini's and whiskey/bourbon/scotch list is excellent. The environment is loud with a mix of high and low-tables, hard seats and soft booths. The outdoor deck is quieter. Recommended for all sensitivities. read more

Dinner out with my wife tonight. Did not want fast food, so we traveled to Ada for dinner. Missed the mark tonight. 1. Styrofoam cups because they had no more glasses. Say in a dining room for 90 minutes as the only ones drinking from styrofoam. Seemed to not bother anyone on the staff. 2. Took a long time to get meal. Was told that our dishes was the last of the special and flavor showed that it was. The dish was not very warm and one piece of meat was cut in half and placed on two plates. Wanted a nice meal but found myself frustrated tonight. read more

Capable of sending your taste buds to a galaxy far far away, Schnitz deserves to float down the Thorapple River and bless the residents of Lowell with its awesome melting pot of food. Even though it might have a name that is prone to be mispronounced, nothing about its service or food is forgettable, leaving each customer with a reason to come back each time for seconds. My elite sense of direction for food paradise has led me here, so why not follow me through the doors of Schnitz. read more

This is probably one of my new favorite spots to eat! Nice atmosphere and I love the options between sitting down, going to the deli or sitting at the bar. I can't wait until the spring to utilize the outdoor seating! The food is great and very large portion for the fairly priced food! Try the schnitzel club! read more
