- Michael CJuly 26, 2019Omigosh great local favorite. Eclectic menu brings all the boys and girls to the yard. Reuben Gonzalez, Whippy Dippy, and Ba-Cock!! are all stellar standouts.
- DannNovember 7, 2016Hipster atmosphere with friendly staffs. They have great root beer selection. Their sandwich and brunch menus are great yet not too pricey.
- Katie KeelerSeptember 7, 2014My favorite restaurant in GR! Great local fresh food. The spinach dip is an amazing and hearty appetizer. You must get their fries with aioli sauce!!!
- Dana BallivianFebruary 16, 2014This place is the bomb! Their sandwiches are awesome, and they're always creating something new and delicious! They are really passionate about their food there!
- Jen FoxFebruary 20, 2015Amazing combinations of amazing foods. I had the corned beef hash sans dairy laden sauce (would if I could). It was still delicious!
- Jubilee OlahAugust 4, 2015I had the shrimp and grits which were so creamy and good. Everything on the menu sounded amazing
- They added a new brunch menu on 7/30; try the Electric Grandmother - cornmeal pancakes topped w/ syrup, green chile chutney & bacon ice cream. If it tastes a little bland add salt to bring out bacon.
- This restaurant is my favorite in Grand Rapids! Staff is amazing and food is even better! You can't go wrong with anything on the menu!
- New brunch menu is cool, but a smidge underseasoned. Used to bold flavors here w former menu. If you get the El Camino ask for some of their burrito sauce, it's green, you'll enjoy it more.
- Sweet potato fries w Garlic aioli is amazing. Food is fantastic. If you appreciate local homemade food, you'll love EC.
- Mark BoggsMarch 21, 2014Fantastic meal! Awesome fries and burger, lobster macaroni and cheese ending with giant freshbaked monster cookies, still hot from oven
- Sarah Jo SautterAugust 17, 2018Housemade root beer, lots of vegetarian and some vegan options. Sweet potato fries are thick and flavorful.
- Cara McDonoughSeptember 3, 2010Saffron tomato bisque and half a grilled cheese. It's the adult version of my childhood lunch, and it's oh so good! Order with a root beer, a dessert, and if you're hungry, the sweet corn fritters, yu
- BrionyFebruary 23, 2019Great sandwiches (for vegetarians, too!). Interesting range of root beer. Fab service too.
- Stellaa DuhartApril 16, 2016The Mexican Quinoa salad was amazing. I also had the old fashioned pretzels. I was not impressed by them.
- Can't go wrong! The Health Hut is my favorite and the fries are pretty spectacular.
- Valerie MDecember 14, 2011You can't leave here without trying the fries with all the aioli dipping sauces! Favorite sandwich: The Leftover Meatloaf.
- Get the pretzels as an appetizer; fresh-baked & homemade, served w/ dijon and stone-ground mustard and cream cheese/chives. Salty goodness.
- Andrew DobneySeptember 23, 2013Had the Mac and Chesse + fries...it was good. However, the sandwiches looked great. Will try one next time.
- Once, long ago, this was my favorite place for breakfast. However it's become a relentless disappointment - the menu is intriguing but the execution is shoddy.
- Nick CampbellJanuary 12, 2016The Cuban. It's not really a Cuban but it tastes so good you won't care. It has chorizo!
- xTopher OMay 18, 2010I almost always start a meal with the spinach salad. The dijon vinaigrette is super light, and I feel you can never go wrong with anything that has goat cheese in it.
- Charity Dishon-FischerApril 21, 2010Wow! If you eat meat, you must try the French Dip! The combination of homemade au jus, local ingredients, and that yummy horseradish sauce is fantastic!
- LaurenWhitneyAugust 4, 2012Great food and great hospitality! The Mac and Cheese Florentine was amazing!
- Jay ConnorFebruary 15, 2014Sit at the counter next to the prep bar and take a walk through the menu.
- Josh RitterAugust 21, 2014Ridiculously long craft root beer menu. Fries were soggy and the Cuban was okay, not great. Didn't have the wow factor I was expecting, but I'll give it another shot.
