Starter's Bar and Grill Midtown

I was on a verge of having a meltdown. So my coworker asked me to go out with her for dinner and drinks. We decided to go to starters bar and grill on Woodward avenue. We went on Wednesday night December 7th 2022. The parking is free, but dark! And there is not a lot of parking spaces there. Because we once try to go there for dinner right before the Mary j Blige concert. But there was no where to park. I also tried to go a couple of times in the summer with my mother, for bonding time. But we couldn't find anywhere to park. If we decided to park somewhere else, my mother and I are not able to walk a long distance. But don't let that stop you if you park somewhere else you do have the advantage of riding the trolley to get you closer. But remember the trolley hours of operation. We entered the restaurant through the back so we had to walk around to the greeters booth to be seated. It was okay the greeter was also a server so we did wait patiently but not for long. Now there was a carryout lady standing there in her booth behind the greeter booth. She was friendly and nice she did answer some questions that we had. The greeter came she was a nice lady, but not very friendly, but Not rude. Of course I forgot the waiters name. He came right up with the waters after the greeter had already gave us the water lol. He was nice and assertive. He went over the menu with us very well. He gave us his opinion and told us was what was best for our taste buds.They also gave my friend a sample of the macaroni and cheese. I had the sampler appetizer, which included six wing dings, two corned beef egg rolls, two large potato skins loaded and two cheese sticks. That was enough. That should have been my main course. But the food looks so good on the digital menus. I couldn't decide if I wanted to grill pork chops or the pepper steak and rice. The waiter stated that they both are good and that is a hard decision to make lol. Then he told me just to go with the pepper steak because you get more for the almost same price. So I did get this pepper steak. While waiting we did order margaritas. That was the best margarita I've had in a long time. I wanted to take one to go but I said no I had enough for the night. My friend got her food which she had the spicy chicken wings. But unfortunately I had to wait about another 10 minutes from my meal because they forgot about me. I had to ask for my food and then it came after I asked. That's not good because we came to dinner together which means we should eat together. I was so full from the appetizer I can only taste my pepper steak. The pepper steak was unfortunately spicy! I'm not big on hot spices. They need to label the menu of the food that is prepared spicy. I was able to enjoy it because I ate the appetizer. But I did enjoy it the next day. The spice wasn't too bad for me. But my daughter and Grand boys love steak. If I would have gotten that for them they would not have been able to enjoy it. So starters I suggest that you let the customer know what items on the menu has a bit spicy spice added to it. The waiter was great. He had a nice personality and he was very friendly. Only thing is that he stayed away a bit too long. I asked for Carrie out boxes I never received them from him, the bus boy was nice enough to get it for me, with bags. He gave us our bill, but then again he stayed gone so long that we had thought we had to walk the bill up to cash up. He came back and got the bill. Other than that I will ask for his service again. The food was good and the adult beverages were great. The atmosphere was perfect for after work. They had the games playing some music playing, that might have been just a tad bit too loud for after work. It was a lot of tables of coworkers, couples, and family. This was a very nice outing for me and my coworker. I really did enjoy myself as well the staff, the food and atmosphere. I will come back, even if I need to catch the trolley.
