    Everything about the restaurant was great! The food and ambience was very tasteful. However the restaurant noted on their policy that they validate parking and that is no longer true.

    Everything was great! The food, drinks and dessert were all wonderful. We brought friends for their first visit and it was just the right place for visiting! It was a little busy - but that’s Friday night! Always a favorite for us.

    Scholar is one of my top three restaurants in Grand Rapids. It truly hits all the categories you want in a nice dinner downtown. Atmosphere and decor is beautiful and moody. Food is INCREDIBLE!! Cannot recommend the Bison Short Ribs if they're still on the menu when you go. Delish cocktails and the staff is kind and. charming. Scholar is always one of my first places to recommend to friends who want a night out. The menu is pricey, for sure, but you're absolutely getting what you pay for! Worth every dollar imo.
