   We went here on Mother's Day evening -- and I think the staff were just tired after having worked the Mother's Day brunch crowd... Our food was excellent, and our waitress was excellent -- and they did give us a discount since they were not at the top of their game. But, it was nearly 45 minutes before we finally got our bottle of wine. Again, the food was excellent & our server did the very best to keep us informed. We might give the rooftop dining a try another time.

   Nothing online said the only option would be a buffet. The buffet was worse than what you’d get for free at a cheap hotel. Overcooked steak. Overcooked sausage patties. Best Western-style scrambled eggs. Absolutely mediocre food options, prepared poorly and confusingly laid out. No mention of price ($50/person) or that an 18% gratuity would be included…when we had to get our own food! Just a terrible overall experience.

   We went to Mertens for Mother’s Day brunch. I was not aware ahead of time that it was buffet only, which would have been ok, except the buffet was not at all close to then quality that we’ve come to expect from Mertens. There really wasn’t anything special about it. For $50 a person, I would expect a carving station or fresh waffles, omelets, specialty desserts or something that would stand out as more than a standard buffet. It was a disappointing and expensive brunch out.

   Made reservations for Mother's Day brunch. A red flag went off when we walked in and A) It was 10% full and B) No worker seemed to really care that we walked inside. We were seated at the back corner and our waitress came to take our drink order, we asked if it was just the buffet or if we could order off the brunch menu as well, "yes, buffet" was her reply. I love a good mystery. She then came back to let me know that they were out of red sangria. Okay I'll have a bloody Mary, thanks. We then sat at the table for fifteen minutes, just kind of waiting around. My youngest son was starving so he and I went to look at the buffet, maybe they have plates laid out like they do at a buffet....nothing. Our server and another wait staff were opposite us folding napkins, a lot of napkin folding going on. Occasionally the waiter would look at us and then to our waitress next to him. I believe he was trying to do what experts call "nonverbal persuasion" or "subconscious influence". It didn't work but thanks for trying my man. We then got up and walked to our car drove a few blocks over to a bustling San Chez, who were kind enough to squeeze us in a small window of time they had, and proceeded to have a wonderful Mother's Day brunch.

   Booked a reservation for an anniversary dinner and noted that in the reservation. Took 25-30 minutes for anyone to come to our table to greet us and get us a glass of water. The waitress only came to our table every 30 min. We had to get up and go ask the bartender to get her for us. We had only managed to order apps in an hour and a half. After apps we waited another 30 min and still had not put our main entrees in. We got our bill and left, we went elsewhere. There are much better restaurants in Grand Rapids that are less expensive and a better experience. Over 2 hours of dinning and only managed to get a drink and an appetizer.

   I was disappointed that a few menu items were not available. I made this reservation for my birthday specifically to have bananas foster, only to be told they were no longer serving it. Please note or remove it from the menu.

   Unfortunately we no longer can recommend this place. The menu has changed, and not for the better. Clearly cutting corners - my shrimp and scallop scampi was made with tiny popcorn shrimp and about 4 scallops the size of a small gumdrop. They now bring you tons of bread but the butter was hard as a rock so kind of pointless. Prices were fine for what you got before, but now everything is even more expensive for poorer quality. Insultingly so. We won’t be back anymore which is a shame because we used to enjoy this place.

    After looking for a restaurant to eat at while visiting downtown, we decided on Mertens Prime. It was a hidden gem for sure. The ambiance is stunning. I love how unique it was and enjoyed the variety of the menu. I wanted a good steak and this didn't disappoint. Next time we are back downtown, we will for sure come back. Also...BEST espresso martini I've ever had. Hands down!
