Asada

branding

Started as an experimental farmers market stand in February 2020, Basalt has grown through many evolutions since. Today, Basalt has morphed into Asada on Wealthy - a brunch-to-dinner concept that continues to hold true to its rich and flavorful heritage from Mexico, Texas, and Michigan. Steven Martinez, owner and operator of Asada, trusted LWG to build a brand that would combine Southwestern iconography with Midwestern sensibilities. As the business ebbed and flowed through post-pandemic diner habits, Steven made a judgment call: How do we morph this hyperlocally beloved brunch diner into an all-day affair that gives people a reason to venture to Eastown? With just the right mix of menu offerings and an evolution on the previous brand design, Asada on Wealthy is proof that brands that can be nimble for their customers pay off.
Purpose
Asada exists to build community through food by creating a delicious Tex-Mex cookout dining experience for our Eastown neighborhood, the city of Grand Rapids, and beyond.
Promise
At Asada, we allow our customers and community to bring their whole selves to the table to indulge in our carefully crafted, cookout-inspired, cross-cultural cuisine.

"The team at LWG were true partners as we engaged in a complete brand overhaul. They were thoughtful, inquisitive, and best of all, extremely enthusiastic about seeing our brand grow into something distinctive and special. I felt like I was working with folks who loved our brand as much as I do, and I don't think there's any other team that could have delivered the care and quality that they did."
– Steven, Owner
