A great spot that reminds me of the small town taverns I grew up around. Cozy vibe, good music, charismatic staff (especially the owner), and a nice back patio with volleyball courts. Detroit-style pizza to rival Buddy's and Loui's (ask for it well-done). Their greek salad is huge, tasty, and always fresh. Good burgers and sandwiches and they'll switch the meat with a nice veggie patty for no extra charge. Decent prices on pitchers and well drinks. Big free parking lot with a friendly attendant who you can bum a cig off of, and who also may bum a cig off of you, depending on the day. And a free shuttle to and from sports events and concerts. An excellent low key place to take friends and family when they visit, no need to wait in line at some overhyped new gastropub. P.S. the exterior is painted in the worst possible drab gray color, hopefully they repaint at some point lol.

This is my first time at this place and I was very disappointed. The gumbo wasn't quite what I had in mind. I asked what type of wine they had and who it was by and the guy told me there was a owl on the bottle so that made me think the wine was from Aldi. I ordered a piece of catfish he told me it would be about five or six dollars I said okay. The owner came out and said I couldn't get just one piece of catfish I had to order a sandwich or a dinner because he needed the $10.00. He did however bring me a plate of grits that he had made for his self they were good that they would have been better with catfish. I would have paid $10 for grits and catfish. On the positive note I'm not a bread but the rolls they have were out of this world. I was told the walleye dinner was wonderful.

unique local place with indoor and outdoor bars. the house it's in was built in 1892 and they have preserved a majority of the original architecture (always a pleasant sight to see original buildings in Detroit). they have a large menu which guarantees basically everyone will have something they'll like. soup, salad, sandwiches, pizza, nachos... even some New Orleans style gumbo dishes. several good vegetarian options, too! we had tuna melts with a side of tortilla chips. nice fast service. thanks Brandy! definitely a good spot for lunch, dinner, and/or drinks if you're around the area. very close to WSU campus, the Amtrak station, and it's right off Woodward.
