The Agitated Grape Bar & Bistro

On our way up to the thumb we decided to try somewhere new and it took us about 3 miles from the highway. Not a bad distance to try something new, and I'm sure glad we did!What we liked: The name in general. It sounds fun and interesting. Why is the grape agitated?!?! The wine cocktails! Flavorful, funky, fancy, and fotographic. (They have a giant Bloody Mary with half a pizza and other food items for only $26!!)The food! Delicious. The pizza crust was definitely homemade with the perfect softness and crunch. The Mac and cheese was totally adult worthy with the amount of bacon on top. The atmosphere. How cool is this heated patio?! The fountain + flowers. ‍ Our waitress, April. She was incredible! So friendly, kind, and knowledgeable. Would love to be served by her again.

We have been wanting to try this place for a while and honestly we're not impressed. I ordered their coffee bourbon cocktail that was barely drinkable and I absolutely love coffee and bourbon so this was a disappointing start. My side of Mac n cheese was ice cold, the waitress did apologize and replace it. The hot honey chicken sandwich was good but not really worth $18. As the place started to fill up, getting anything took forever. They only have 1 waitress for the entire place. Everything was mediocre but not really worth $85 for the two of us (2 alcoholic drinks, 2 sandwiches, 1 dessert)

Enjoy every time we come , We have never a bad experience ... Food, Atmosphere ....hidden gem Love this spot

This is a very cute small business downtown Davison. We came for Sunday brunch and there was a learn to crochet class happening (typical to have events on Sundays I guess). Parking was easy enough down the street for free. We came for the Instagram worthy drinks but if I came again, I would get a breakfast board and a smaller drink (was only able to finish half of my mimosa). It was really packed with the event going on so we were able to squeeze in at the bar and the drinks took about 30 minutes to come out. I think the Bloody Mary toppings were more bang for your buck with 2 big pieces of pizza (good pizza!). The Bloody Mary also has a chicken and waffles option. The drinks were fun but a little gimmicky (most of the food on it was just ok).

This is a wonderful Made in Michigan restaurant serving all local wines, beer and whiskey. I met a girlfriend here for lunch, we split a few appetizers and salad and the portions were perfect. I can see this being a pretty happening place in the evenings on the weekends with live music, but it's really a perfect spot for lunch as well. The food was amazing, and the service was great, my only complaint was my clothes smelled like deep fried food after we left. I know it's an old historical building but maybe there needs to be some stronger vent fans or maybe the vent fans weren't on in the kitchen. That is just a personal pet peeve of mine and it surprised me because we sat at the front of the restaurant the furtherest tables from the kitchen.

Delicious and a great value! The group charcuterie boards are not as good of a value.

I'm giving a 3 but it really was a 2 star visit. We had looked forward to this trip ever since we heard about it on Facebook. We were going to check it out after the 4th of July weekend but Saturday of the holiday weekend dawned cloudy and a bit of rain so we made the drive to wait out the clouds. It has a really nice patio area and if you go, park in the rear, it's closer to the patio and doesn't require steps to get to it. The place wasn't busy. There were 4 tables occupied outside and I don't think anyone was inside. We got there about 30 minutes after opening (around 12:30) and we were the 2nd table seated. We were served promptly by our waitress and she did a really good job of explaining the main concept of this bistro. Which is. Michigan. Wines, beers and pop are all Michigan produced. The menu tries to be Michigan but I saw several items that were not possible with only Mi products, like the Crabby Mac, and apparently my wife's Apple Gorgonzola Salad. Which is the reason for the actual 3 stars. I ordered the Pizza Bloody Mary. And it delivered! The waitress explained that it would take longer because of the items perched atop it, but hey, it's a Pizza on a Bloody Mary! My wife ordered the Apple Gorgonzola Salad. My epic drink arrived but there was no salad. The waitress said it'll be out in a second. The pizza was hot and the Bloody Mary was slightly spicy. Not a big fan of spicy Bloody Marys. And this one didn't hit my limit. There is SOME heat but overall it was really good. The mozzarella balls on the drink sticks appeared to be house made? But they were really fresh and tasty. The drink arrived as advertised and exceeded my expectations. There were a LOT of components to my drink. It took me a long time to get thru all three skewers of deliciousness. And in all that time, my wife's salad never arrived. There were several trips by the waitress assuring us the salad would be right up but when I was done and just sipping the rest of my drink, when we had decided that we would ask the waitress to make her salad a to go order, she informed us that they were out of apples for my wife's salad. What? It took 45 minutes to assemble my drink, it took another 30 to 40 minutes to disassemble and eat it. And in NO time were we informed that you were out of apples. There were 4 tables occupied and one of them. A family of four left. I don't know the reason but they left without eating and evidently not liking the drinks. It just seemed so disorganized and disappointing. I really wanted this place to be the bomb and the overall experience ended up bombing. One of my pet peeves is that when my wife and I go out to eat together, we like to eat. Together. I was having flashbacks of Louisville. The waitress comped my wife a drink and gave us a coupon for a free pizza so I hope to see the place in a better light in the future. Since my Pizza Bloody Mary was the only thing I saw come out of the kitchen besides one other salad, it could of been my fault they got all discombobulated. It could also of been a shortage of staff and a holiday weekend so the stars could go up or down in the future.

Wanted a change for an evening meal, found The Agitated Grape which was Outstanding. They don't take reservations for 2, so we arrived at 6:00pm on a Saturday night and snagged one of the few High Tops left. My wife got the Wine Flight of 5, she enjoyed it, the month's special was Sheppard's Pie very good and my wife got the seasonal salad. That was just as good. Check it out you won't be disappointed, but fills up fast, most of the tables were reservations were for 10-12.

Food was bland, service was non attentive, no heat, order was wrong. Music too loud Will not be able to recommend

This business is really come a long way from the moment they opened. I can't wait to go back.
