Have been to MDRD many times, and it never disappoints. You cannot beat the view, the food and the service. We usually just get tapas, however this time we decided to have a couple of tapas and then order entrées. I had the salmon and the two other people had the beef tenderloin. Everything was delicious! The service is impeccable. It is one of the best places in Grand Rapids to go for a special occasion.

It was our first time ever in Grand Rapids and a local recommended Coopers to us, and we are glad we went. The portion of the appetizer was huge, the entrees were good, and the pretzel bread was delicious. The front of the restaurant kinda throws you off because it's store themed and beyond the store is the front desk to the restaurant. Our server was extremely knowledgeable about all aspects of the menu, and you could tell she cared a ton for the work she was doing. Overall, it was an excellent experience, and we will definitely be back again if we are ever up that way.
