If you like good omelets, come try this place. I had the new "Green Acres" omelets and it was fantastic. The place is always busy at breakfast, so you may have to wait a bite.

Great food! Great price! Reminds me of Waffle House, only classier, and that's a good thing :-) Simple menu great food, the red velvet French toast was fantastic! Will come back for sure

Solid stuff. The chocolate chip pancakes were fluffy and delicious, although nothing special necessarily; I also had an omelet with cheese, bacon and veggies which was well prepared and tasty. My friends had the Belgian waffle with strawberries, which looked delicious and the coffee was decent for diner coffee; I had a hazelnut blend that was really good. My partner had a basic breakfast of bacon eggs and toast and it was all cooked perfectly. Overall good solid food- the environment was a little chaotic but it was Sunday morning so I think that's to be expected in brunch places. Service was still reasonably prompt after some confusion about seating.

The pancakes are too thick and not as soft. My husband had an omelette and I had a burger. Nothing too special on the menu, but is a decent place.

High class Waffle House, loved it!! My cousin and I sat at the bar, they had an open kitchen. On a Saturday morning it was packed, we waited about 5-7 mins. Service was good. Now the food... :)))) for real. I had the pig pile skillet, tater tots, ham, sausage, bacon, shredded cheese, sausage gravy and 2 eggs. It was so amazingly American and delicious. My cousin had the gyro omelette. Lamb, feta, cumber sauce and what not. She loved it. I'm actually going back right now. It's that good.

Nope. I don't think I will go back. My second time I have been in there. I got the same waitress who honestly had other customers and I was just a disturbance. It someone 5-7 minutes to come ask me for a drink, took forever to get a refill, and the waitress was rude and obnoxious. The food was not great. The pancakes repelled the syrup rather than absorbing it, the eggs were bland, but my bagel tasted good. Sorry this one was a fail sorry

Love it here! We go all the time. The food is fabulous for either breakfast or lunch, and the staff is always super friendly to us. We love the pig pile skillet and the Irish combo! They do cute little seasonal things like fall harvest coffee and pumpkin French toast. It's very sweet and homey. We just wish they were open longer!

Awesome food, great service! The Red Geranium is one of the best restaurants in Grand Rapids with a large selection of food and friendly service. I enjoy eating their breakfast selections, which I believe are served all day. The only bad thing I would have to day is that I am disappointed they are not open in the evenings.

Good food and great prices. Worth the weekend morning waits! The staff is friendly and the food comes out fast. Love their Eggs Benedict!

First time here for breakfast. this morning with my wife. We went prime time, Saturday morning about 11am. We got the only open table in the joint. After that there was a short wait for a table. If your one of the people below that show up with 12 people during prime times at a small restaurant and then whines because they can't seat you immediately...well then your an idiot. Not just this small restaurant...ANY small restaurant Just saying... There was a short wait for parties of 2 or 4 but if somebody showed up with 10 or 12 people and wanted to sit together they would have been waiting a while. I mean, it would have taken 5 tables to free up after all. It was everything I want from a breakfast place. I had corned beef hash, eggs and hasbrowns wth toast. It was great. Wife had a breakfast burrito and it was stuffed with sausage and bacon. The pancakes on other tables looked and smelled awesome. Waitress wasn't hanging on us but was there when we needed her and kept my coffee and Diet Coke full/ Defianately will go back. This place and the two Peppermills are in a league of their own when it comes to solid, diner style breakfast. They don't try and get cute like Anna's House (I reviewed it). They just put out great breakfast food .

Yummy but crowded. Best breakfast place in the area. Really good omelets at a decent price. Usually have to wait a few minutes to get in and it is a tight squeeze to sit down but it is worth it.

We ate breakfast here a couple of weeks ago. We had a group of eight and had to wait 15 minutes or so, but they offered us to bring us drinks while we waited (not complimentary, but still nice). We had an assortment of stuffed french toast, pancakes, omelettes, & potatoes, and all was quite tasty. Instead of toast, my SIL and I ordered some sort of frosted bread the waitress raved about, but I found it only "okay". The waitress was a bit neglectful, but the food was delish, and I'd definitely go back.

This is a breakfast only review, since I have never went in for anything other then that. The breakfast here is consistent, delicious, and reasonably priced. The daily specials are unique but well crafted. Hash browns are not too oily or buttery, leaving some of the best tasting browns I've had in a long time. Eggs are not sloppy, but cooked perfectly and as ordered. The omelets are divine. The ingredients are all fresh which really comes through in the food. My mother got a skillet once and she ate every bit of it. I also have to give Red Geranium props on their biscuits and gravy. When the place first opened, I really didn't care for them but over the years, they have gotten exponentially better. I prefer the ham steak over bacon based on taste and quantity. I have to note that I have been here probably 20+ times and have never gotten a bad breakfast. Now I live in Cleveland and I really struggle to find a place as consistent and as delicious as Red Geranium that is close by. IMO, driving 20 minutes out of my way is not acceptable for something as easy as breakfast. So do yourself a favor and try RG for breakfast, but keep in mind that this place does get busy. I order the Grandpa Stein with a side order of biscuits and gravy, a man breakfast but ohhh sooo good!

Horrible service!!!! My sister and I came on a weekend morning. We walked in the door and there was no hostess. There was a sign in sheet for a wait, but it was all scratched off and there was no one waiting for us. Most of the wait staff just looked at us and walked by. The cook was calling for someone to get the door, but they ignored him. I finally had to get someones attention that kept walking by us She asked us if she put our names on the list. I told here there was no list, there were no names on the list and no one else waiting. Then she told us to put our names on the list, We just left and ate somewhere else. The women that work there are not nice what so ever.

Stopped in for a cup of hot tea & an English Muffin while passing thru on my way to Holland. The atmosphere was pleasant & inviting, however, the server seems to be having a rough day ('tho it was only 9:15am) I'd give it another try, but the service made it just ok.

We ate there again this morning. My wife woke up and whispered "I'm hungry" A little creepy if you don't expect it:) That is my weekend clue that today is not "diet" day and we will be off to Red Geranium. Their potatoes are awesome and waitresses never forget you.

You have to be looking for the Red Geranium Cafe to find it in a strip mall on Kalamazoo Ave. just south of 60th St. It is the same cafe that used to be on Michigan by Spectrum Hospital but in a larger space. The food is much the same - great breakfasts with omelets and hash browns. I've had their soup and sandwich and was not disappointed. Always busy but much larger seating area in this location. A good place to lunch in Kentwood - Caledonia besides fast food.

This is a breakfast only review, since I have never went in for anything other then that. The breakfast here is consistent, delicious, and reasonably priced. The daily specials are unique but well crafted. Hash browns are not too oily or buttery, leaving some of the best tasting browns I've had in a long time. Eggs are not sloppy, but cooked perfectly and as ordered. The omelets are divine. The ingredients are all fresh which really comes through in the food. My mother got a skillet once and she ate every bit of it. I also have to give Red Geranium props on their biscuits and gravy. When the place first opened, I really didn't care for them but over the years, they have gotten exponentially better. I prefer the ham steak over bacon based on taste and quantity. I have to note that I have been here probably 20+ times and have never gotten a bad breakfast. Now I live in Cleveland and I really struggle to find a place as consistent and as delicious as Red Geranium that is close by. IMO, driving 20 minutes out of my way is not acceptable for something as easy as breakfast. So do yourself a favor and try RG for breakfast, but keep in mind that this place does get busy. I order the Grandpa Stein with a side order of biscuits and gravy, a man breakfast but ohhh sooo good!

Horrible service!!!! My sister and I came on a weekend morning. We walked in the door and there was no hostess. There was a sign in sheet for a wait, but it was all scratched off and there was no one waiting for us. Most of the wait staff just looked at us and walked by. The cook was calling for someone to get the door, but they ignored him. I finally had to get someones attention that kept walking by us She asked us if she put our names on the list. I told here there was no list, there were no names on the list and no one else waiting. Then she told us to put our names on the list, We just left and ate somewhere else. The women that work there are not nice what so ever.

You have to be looking for the Red Geranium Cafe to find it in a strip mall on Kalamazoo Ave. just south of 60th St. It is the same cafe that used to be on Michigan by Spectrum Hospital but in a larger space. The food is much the same - great breakfasts with omelets and hash browns. I've had their soup and sandwich and was not disappointed. Always busy but much larger seating area in this location. A good place to lunch in Kentwood - Caledonia besides fast food.

The food is decent. There is nothing special about it. Beats places like iHop and Dennys. Can't touch places like Wolfgang's or Cherie Inn though.

You have to be looking for the Red Geranium Cafe to find it in a strip mall on Kalamazoo Ave. just south of 60th St. It is the same cafe that used to be on Michigan by Spectrum Hospital but in a larger space. The food is much the same - great breakfasts with omelets and hash browns. I've had their soup and sandwich and was not disappointed. Always busy but much larger seating area in this location. A good place to lunch in Kentwood - Caledonia besides fast food.

Our waiter was so nice! The food was great. My nephew enjoyed coloring the kids menu and they hung it up on the wall. Our food came fast and everything was perfectly cooked.

Solid stuff. The chocolate chip pancakes were fluffy and delicious, although nothing special necessarily; I also had an omelet with cheese, bacon and veggies which was well prepared and tasty. My friends had the Belgian waffle with strawberries, which looked delicious and the coffee was decent for diner coffee; I had a hazelnut blend that was really good. My partner had a basic breakfast of bacon eggs and toast and it was all cooked perfectly. Overall good solid food- the environment was a little chaotic but it was Sunday morning so I think that's to be expected in brunch places. Service was still reasonably prompt after some confusion about seating.

The pancakes are too thick and not as soft. My husband had an omelette and I had a burger. Nothing too special on the menu, but is a decent place.

High class Waffle House, loved it!! My cousin and I sat at the bar, they had an open kitchen. On a Saturday morning it was packed, we waited about 5-7 mins. Service was good. Now the food... :)))) for real. I had the pig pile skillet, tater tots, ham, sausage, bacon, shredded cheese, sausage gravy and 2 eggs. It was so amazingly American and delicious. My cousin had the gyro omelette. Lamb, feta, cumber sauce and what not. She loved it. I'm actually going back right now. It's that good.

Went on recommendation from local. Got the supreme omelette and sugar bread. Service was good, food was good, but the sugar bread could have used some extra icing on it.

If you like good omelets, come try this place. I had the new "Green Acres" omelets and it was fantastic. The place is always busy at breakfast, so you may have to wait a bite.

Great food! Great price! Reminds me of Waffle House, only classier, and that's a good thing :-) Simple menu great food, the red velvet French toast was fantastic! Will come back for sure

Excellent customer service. Clean establishment. Very good selection for breakfast. All the food we ordered was excellent!

Nope. I don't think I will go back. My second time I have been in there. I got the same waitress who honestly had other customers and I was just a disturbance. It someone 5-7 minutes to come ask me for a drink, took forever to get a refill, and the waitress was rude and obnoxious. The food was not great. The pancakes repelled the syrup rather than absorbing it, the eggs were bland, but my bagel tasted good. Sorry this one was a fail sorry

Love it here! We go all the time. The food is fabulous for either breakfast or lunch, and the staff is always super friendly to us. We love the pig pile skillet and the Irish combo! They do cute little seasonal things like fall harvest coffee and pumpkin French toast. It's very sweet and homey. We just wish they were open longer!

Awesome food, great service! The Red Geranium is one of the best restaurants in Grand Rapids with a large selection of food and friendly service. I enjoy eating their breakfast selections, which I believe are served all day. The only bad thing I would have to day is that I am disappointed they are not open in the evenings.

Good food and great prices. Worth the weekend morning waits! The staff is friendly and the food comes out fast. Love their Eggs Benedict!

The food here is AMAZING! This place is some of the best diner breakfast food I've ever had. Anything I order is delicious, but my favorite.. biscuits and gravy with a side of hash browns. And oohh my, do they have the best hash browns.

Great place for breakfast. Biscuits and gravy are good, and the Hawaiian omelet is delicious as well.

First time here for breakfast. this morning with my wife. We went prime time, Saturday morning about 11am. We got the only open table in the joint. After that there was a short wait for a table. If your one of the people below that show up with 12 people during prime times at a small restaurant and then whines because they can't seat you immediately...well then your an idiot. Not just this small restaurant...ANY small restaurant Just saying... There was a short wait for parties of 2 or 4 but if somebody showed up with 10 or 12 people and wanted to sit together they would have been waiting a while. I mean, it would have taken 5 tables to free up after all. It was everything I want from a breakfast place. I had corned beef hash, eggs and hasbrowns wth toast. It was great. Wife had a breakfast burrito and it was stuffed with sausage and bacon. The pancakes on other tables looked and smelled awesome. Waitress wasn't hanging on us but was there when we needed her and kept my coffee and Diet Coke full/ Defianately will go back. This place and the two Peppermills are in a league of their own when it comes to solid, diner style breakfast. They don't try and get cute like Anna's House (I reviewed it). They just put out great breakfast food .

Best place in the area for breakfast. The sausage gravy is a favorite. Or try the Skillets. Very friendly staff who are efficient, friendly and very nice.
(5)Todd R.
The breakfast burrito was awesome and the service was very good! The cafe was very clean and were the restrooms.

Been here a few times. Always great food for the price and a nice atmosphere. Servers are very pleasant and good customer service. Worth the wait.

Yummy but crowded. Best breakfast place in the area. Really good omelets at a decent price. Usually have to wait a few minutes to get in and it is a tight squeeze to sit down but it is worth it.

We ate breakfast here a couple of weeks ago. We had a group of eight and had to wait 15 minutes or so, but they offered us to bring us drinks while we waited (not complimentary, but still nice). We had an assortment of stuffed french toast, pancakes, omelettes, & potatoes, and all was quite tasty. Instead of toast, my SIL and I ordered some sort of frosted bread the waitress raved about, but I found it only "okay". The waitress was a bit neglectful, but the food was delish, and I'd definitely go back.
