What Olivia A likes about The Public:
I love dining at Public! Very small but cozy place with unique and classic dishes to choose from. When we arrived to the restaurant they honored our reservation and we were seated immediately at a booth spot by a window (lovely view). Masks are required when you are not at your table and they took down a number from each household. The service was definitely wonderful and our food was delicious as always. I recommend...

Most arrogant staff in West Michigan, hands down! The wait staff here makes the cast of Jersey Shore feel like a welcomed replacement. I called to place a pick-up order and the woman on the phone acted as though I was some huge inconvenience to her the entire time. I picked up my order and got it home to find that they shorted me!

I took my husband here for his bday this was our first time here and it was excellent, very unique with awesome drinks. The Creme Brule was to die for.

Public in downtown Zeeland is a cozy little gem with a mix of unique and classic dishes to choose from. The restaurant enforces strict COVID-19 protocols, but despite this, the service was wonderful and the food delicious. While some diners found the dinner entrees disappointing, others enjoyed their meals, from the impressive appetizers like Buffalo shrimp and angels on horseback to the tasty dishes like the Mongolian beef and steak, ending with a treat like the blondie brownie with gelato. The restaurant offers a good selection of drinks, with some patrons enjoying the Sangria cocktail or Spy Valley Sauvignon Blanc. Overall, Public seems to have a lot to offer in terms of quality food, service, and ambiance, making it a popular choice for dining in Zeeland.
