The tasting menu with wine pairing was lovely. Derek was my server and he was knowledgeable and so friendly. The whole place is a vibe. Nice and quiet but not too quiet. It would be perfect for an anniversary, birthday, or just a random day when you want to treat yourself. Would definitely recommend.

The place was busy because of Wine and Food Week, but out table - not part of that celebration - was given excellent and timely service. We consider this to be one of the top restaurants in the area.

The Heritage Restaurant is part of the culinary arts program at Grand Rapids Community College. The students, training to be chefs, the ones we met were on the pastry program and the international cuisine class. The service was amazing. The dishes were exotic and the server did an amazing job of explaining what they were, how it was made and the ingredients contained. We took some pictures, because words do not work for something so amazing and memorable. We had the (description pasted from menu): Peach and Goat Cheese Salad Mixed greens, peaches, goat cheese, candied walnuts, pickled shallots, and Lemon Tarragon Vinaigrette French Onion Soup (AMAZING!) Burrata, Pistachio, Grapes and Calabrian Chili Honey- Creamy burrata, roasted grapes, fennel, Calabrian chili honey, grilled focaccia Portuguese Style Camarones Recheados- Crab stuffed shrimp, garlic herb oil, root vegetables, chili flakes, saffron rice Amish Coq Au Vin- Chicken, pearl onions, Bordeaux reduction, buttery pancetta polenta Desert: Ube Cheesecake- Ube and blackberry cheesecake with yuzu and white chocolate All of this, including service fee that goes towards the scholarship fund was less than $60.00 The students and staff here are incredible. Reservations are required and go very fast.
