616 Kabob Stop – Authentic Mediterranean Grill & Burgers in Grand Rapids

The chicken shawarma on warm fresh pita with garlic sauce and pomegranate molasses has pulled at least one reviewer back three times in two weeks. The "Feast for 1-2" plate piles meat over rice with hummus and a side salad, and complimentary mint tea shows up at the end. The menu is clearly marked for vegan and gluten-free options, and the falafel rice bowl gets repeat mentions alongside the burgers.

Cafe

Kobold's Kitchen

★ 4.8(45)

A board-game cafe on Plainfield with shelves of games to play while you eat. The menu runs to shareable bites: mac and cheese bites, chicken bites, samosas with a bright chutney, empanadas, and tots, plus boba and Michigan-made soda. Reviewers single out the mac and cheese bites and the vegetarian options.

American

Bob's Sports Bar

★ 4.4(624)· $

The 1/3 lb. Whiskey Burger and PBR on draft tell you everything you need to know about Bob's. Looks worn from the outside, but the bar is lively on game days and prices stay cheap. Reviewers mention an outdoor area worth watching for in warmer months.

Italian

Licari's Sicilian Pizza Kitchen-No.1

★ 4.6(1,706)· $$

The Sfinciuni and Schiacciata pizzas are the reason to come to Licari's on Leonard St. Riccotta Balls show up in more than one review as a standout starter. Families roll in after weekend sports games, the pizza earns repeat visits, and the pasta is a secondary concern.

Sandwiches

Bagel Beanery

★ 4.2(884)· $

Bagel Beanery on Michigan St is one of the few bagel spots open Sunday nights, which makes it useful before a show at DeVos Performance Hall. Reviewers consistently call out the dark-roast Americano, and the bagel sandwiches move quickly at the counter. Service has been a recurring sore spot, though management has been responsive when complaints are raised directly.
