New Steak, Pasta, Seafood Restaurant Now Open on Grand Rapids West Side

The owners of two popular eateries on Bridge St. have expanded with a new restaurant and bar on Grand Rapids west side!

Way back in 2021 we told you that brothers David and Paul Reinert, who own O'Toole's Public House and Butcher's Union, planned to open a full-service restaurant called Gin Gin’s at 345 Summer Ave.

Owners describe it as "stylish and inviting" and "a timeless neighborhood gathering place located on the west side."

The restauranteurs purchased the property, which is minutes from downtown Grand Rapids, on Sept. 6, 2018 for $880,000. Since then they worked to  transform the vacant building into a new dining destination.

In addition to seating for approximately 80 people inside, there's an outdoor beer garden with room for 75 to 80.

Gin Gin's officially opened to the public May 30th.

On the menu you'll find premium steaks, fresh seafood, and handmade pasta.

Appetizers include Baked Crab Cakes, Wagyu Meatballs, Shrimp Scampi, Salmon Crudo, Steak Tartare, and Oysters.

For steaks, choose from Filet Mignon, Prime Ribeye, New York Strip, and more.

Other entrees include Norwegian Trout, Black Cod, Broiled Swordfish, Chicken Frites. For handmade pasta you'll find Cavatelli, Potato Gnocchi, Spaghetti, and Ricotta Ravioli.

I love to have tons of sides to choose from, and Gin Gin's delivers on that! The menu includes Buttery Mashed Potatoes, Loaded Baked Potato, Creamed Corn, Creamed Spinach, Roasted Asparagus, Roasted Mushrooms, Heirloom Tomatoes, and Pan Seared Scallop. Check out the full menu here!

The drink menu includes a HUGE selection of spirits and martinis, beer, wine, plus cocktails like the Old Fashioned, Manhattan, Side Car, Margarita, and Negroni.

Gin Gin's is open Tuesday through Thursday, 4p.m. to 11p.m., Friday 4 to 11:30P.M., Saturday 3 to 11:30, closed Sunday and Monday.
