The Candied Yam - Grand Rapids

We're from Kalamazoo, been there a couple of times. We really really enjoyed the food. And the Staff even remembered Us. GREAT FOOD I've already spreaded the word.Food: 5/5

I just got food from the Candied Yam for the first time. I got fried chicken and mashed potatoes with gravy. The chicken was delicious, not too heavily breaded and the seasoning was very good. I will definitely be back to try the perch next time! I also feel like the price is very fair for the amount of food included. I was too full to try the cornbread but will heat it up tomorrow.

Love this place! The staff is super friendly and the food is always fresh and delicious. We are pescatarian so we love the fish it comes with 2 sides, this time I got Mac and cheese and yams. It also comes with sweet potato cornbread that is amazing. I also just discovered that they do dinner and shows with DeVos so you go there first and eat and then shuttle you to devos for the show and then they shuttle you back to your car at the restaurant afterwards .

The atmosphere and service was great. But the food is not the best mainly the sides. No cheese flavor on the mac cheese. Cabbage collard greens were not seasoned very bland. Meatloaf was dry no flavor. The cornbread and yams were ok.Food: 1/5

Great food and friendly service! Awesome if you’re looking for a fast, great lunch that doesn’t sacrifice on comfort or flavor. Not the fanciest of utensils, but it fits the food well. Would come again!
