With the knowledge of my son's food allergies it is hard to find a restaurant that caters to his needs. Marie Catribs of Grand Rapids is the one restaurant where I can take my family and we all enjoy the amazing food and unbeatable service. The best part is that everything on the menu is specifically noted if it is "gluten free" or "Vegan" both very important things that I look for considering my son is allergic to wheat, egg and dairy. This is a place you just have to try!
Unique restaurant that emphasizes the feel of East Town and Cherry Hill. This place always seem busy, so expect a bit of a wait, but it's worth it.
The menu offers unique dishes and even menu items catered to kids. Many items on the menu are made with locally grown produce. The staff is friendly and ready to recommend dishes when asked. Truly a great experience.

Marie Catrib's has a garden on their roof. No joke.
They place a high emphasis on both conservation and conversation -- a great place to chat while enjoying a meal, feeling good that you're supporting a business which gives back to the overall health and quality of the community.
This is a mother-son operated business, and both are very easy going and friendly. The food is outstanding, with many natural/healthy choices.
Hands down my favorite restaurant in Grand Rapids.

Oh my gosh, this is our favorite restaurant in Grand Rapids. And it's THE place my family demands that we take them to when they visit. Fresh food, not your run of the mill fare for the more adventurous, though they have plenty of options for those with simpler tastes. The food is from local providers, organic. There really isn't a flaw that I can see. The owner is usally there and always checking to make sure everyone is happy. And the deserts. If they have the sticky toffee pudding, you HAVE to get it. But, then there's nothing in the desert case that isn't something to write home about.
Pros: everything about it
Cons: nothing comes to mind
