Elwood Bar & Grill — Restaurant in Detroit

We loved this place! Great location and great service. We went on a super busy and extremely hot day. There was a baseball game plus the Taylor Swift Concert.

The servers were all wearing Taylor Swift merch. The music was Taylor Swift music. I thought this was such a great place to bring my daughter too. The servers were very patient and friendly. I didn't feel rushed and they kept coming by to check in on us for drinks and all. The food was really good also. We ordered a veggie burger and a beef burger. She said the coke was unlimited refills, this was cool!

The vibe of this place was so cool. Although it was swarming with people, it was still clean, even the busy bathrooms downstairs were very clean.

The outdoor patio was very pretty, busy but well tended too. There was a long line up to get in but that was expected due to everything going on there. This is definitely a great place to enjoy a meal...

Had dinner here before Lions preseason game. Service was incredibly slow (they were busy, but not insanely so). Kid's meals came out 20 minutes before our sandwiches, my chicken BLT was missing the avocado. Limp, mostly tasteless fries. Kids did like their grilled cheese, but for the sides, the pickle spear was laid over the watermelon slice and so the watermelon tasted like pickle lol. No refills offered on our drinks til we asked for the check, which was $55 for 2 kids meals and 2 sandwiches. Smaller glasses and everyone was out pretty early in the meal. Don't know if they were short-staffed at that time or just a mediocre restaurant, but we won't be back. Cannot beat the location right across from Ford Field, so go there if that is your most important criteria, and you don't mind...

I had bad experience going there last year, the security guard was extremely rude. I thought I would try one more time to go last night. I understand they are busy. I patiently waited for my turn to get drinks. She was getting everyone’s drink and skipping me. I politely said “excuse me”. She gave me a look and said loudly and rude , “I see you! You just have to wait!” If you see me and I am first in line then why would you not help me? All she has to say is I will be with you shortly but she cannot do that.

They have the rudest people working in there. The only thing they have is because they are next to Ford field. I will never go back. You don’t treat customers like that. There are plenty of bars I can go to with great service and...
