Mee and my husband was out riding and got hungry. We didn't want the usual burger and fries so we "googled" upon this spot (pictures showed what assumed to be good food etc.) We got there around midnight, thought it was closed due to "no cars"(not many) in the area but we still proceeded to go in. EVERYBODY (out of maybe 8-10 people) was sitting expect 1 person. I honestly thought we walked into the WRONG establishment if you ask Mee. NO ONE greeted us yet everyone LOOKED. I at that point was leery. However, we proceeded to the bar still with no greeting, no longer any eye contact, nothing. Shortly after sitting, we get popcorn, that's it, no water, no welcome, no do you need a minute etc. I literally had to ask for water just for it to come in greasy cups. We sat another 5-10 minutes maybe before I had to inquire about WHO'S going to take our order (after we had to ask for menus). Longer story shorter, not only was the customer service HORRIBLE the food was too! Only thing good was the waffle fries and celery . I DEFINITELY don't reccomend and definitely wont EVER return. Oh not to mention a worker standing behind the bar eating. Very unprofessional

I was downtown and wanted to find a great bar and grill to try out. Tommy's Detroit Bar & Grill looked like a great place to grab lunch. I sat at the bar, and my bartendress was Lisa. She was on top of things, she got my drink and got my order in right away, and if you wanted to talk sports, she could carry her own. I ordered "Tommy's Favorite Jumbo Chicken Pita" and DBO "the cook" prepared and delivered the sandwich in good time. He said he picked up the fresh vegetables that morning at "Farmers Market." If you've heard of "The Hani" and like it, you will love this Pita. The chicken melts in your mouth, and the fresh vegetables create a heavenly taste. I will likely make a special trip back downtown just to have another. If you're in Detroit, you have to check this place out.

Found this place by the reviews that were online. So we showed up later on a Friday night and this place was insanely busy. We went to the back and sat down for a little bit before we were greeted. Once the server realized we were there he was apologetic and attentive for the remaining of the time. The food came out and it was fresh and hot. Beer could have been colder though. After dinner, we inquired as to going under business where there is a tunnel that was discovered. The bartender (Older blonde female) took time from behind the bar to take us down and explain the history to us. Even though we were out of town, they offered us a ride to the Red Wings game on a shuttle service. If you ask me would I come back here, I absolutely would. People and food were well worth it.

My Girl has been telling me about this place for over two years and we finally found ourselves in the vicinity with time to spare for a meal. Knowing I'm a history buff, especially local history, my Girl's been feeding me tidbits of information about the buildings past including that it was once part of the underground railroad, and was also a speakeasy with ties to the people gang during prohibition. The building is allegedly haunted and there's video footage of an excavation done in conjunction with Wayne state university in the basement where there may be hidden rooms or tunnels. But I digress, the food is excellent. The service is fast and friendly, but the atmosphere is awesome and worth the trip in and of itself. I highly recommend. Two thumbs way up.

Came to this local small business owned bar. A friend and I came to this venue due to hearing great things about it. Apparently, the history here goes back to the ungrounded railroad, upon the walls, pictures and maps are shown of the routed taken. The people here all seemed to be regulars and locals. The service was great, we had lots of laughs! The food was outstanding! We were given popcorn upon arrival. The pretzel bites were good, but the mustard did it for me. The shoe string fries were good and last but not least the chicken wings !! I will crave these Wings forever! Honestly, Im salivating thinking about them 😋 I highly suggest trying them and welcome to your new craving.
