Social Kitchen and Bar Grand Rapids

We love the construction of their own pizza and salad option. good food, good location.

My man burger was practically raw in the middle, service was kind of slow, we had concert tickets for the evening. Fries tasted as if they were too long and so salty that they were almost unpredictable. typically one of my going to locate, but rather disappointing overall.

We were for brunch. we had family from the state. it was chaotic as soon as we got in. it took 15 minutes to get our reservation and another 10 minutes to get us water and coffee. they needed 50 minutes to get our food out. our waitress was the whole 50 minutes mia. two of the 5 breakfast orders were wrong. 25 minutes to get the right food. rarely saw our waitress throughout the 2 hours service. very unorganized staff. No one seemed responsible for it. don't go back.

We went on Valentine’s Day and had an 8 PM reservation. Arrived 15 minutes ahead of time and at 8:20 still had not been acknowledged that we were even there. There was a line of annoyed people who also had reservations but instead of letting people check in, it was a very slow moving line, one at a time. There was only one hostess checking everyone in and nothing against her but she seemed sort of unsure and unclear of her direction. Besides being the only hostess, she was the only one busing/cleaning tables in between trying to seat tables. She clearly needed others to help her, and nobody seemed to be available. I cannot really rate the food because we were too annoyed with the experience before we even could get sat, and decided to leave! In addition, while waiting to be acknowledged for our reservation, my boyfriend tried to order a drink and was asked three different times ‘can we help you’ but then nobody ever took his order!

Overall the food was amazing! The atmosphere was great too. Our server, Archie, did a very nice job. The one drawback (I attribute this to being super busy) our main course was delivered an hour after our appetizers. It’ll make for a great next day lunch. We would recommend and go back!
