Ghost Modern Mexican — Restaurant in Pontiac

Beyond my expectations! I came here honestly expecting typical, watered-down Mexican food — but wow, was I wrong! (Although, for anyone who prefers the classic American-style options, they do have hard shell tacos too.)

Everything was absolutely delicious. The chips and salsa were superb, and the green salsa was my favorite — perfectly spicy!

My tacos were fantastic, and my toddler devoured the birria pizza and his grilled chicken taco. My pre-teens ordered the chicken strips, and even the fries were tasty — I’m on a diet, but I still took the leftover fries home! 😅

the birria pizza, it was hands down one of the best things I’ve ever eaten. I’m a huge fan of quesabirria tacos and didn’t think anything could top them, but this did. The birria here is easily one of my favorites!

The service was awesome — the staff were so friendly and welcoming!

I also really appreciated that they gave a little toys , which were a lifesaver for keeping my toddler and teens entertained so we could actually enjoy our meal in peace.

The place itself is aesthetically pleasing and extremely clean.

I definitely...

I had an awesome experience at Ghost Modern Mexican in Pontiac! From the moment we walked in, we were warmly welcomed by Sally—such a great first impression. The vibe was inviting, and the service continued to impress throughout our visit.

We started with chips and salsa, and I really appreciated that they brought both mild and hot options. The chips were perfectly crispy, and the hot salsa had just the right amount of kick—absolutely delicious.

I had a tough time choosing what to order because everything looked so good. I ended up going with the street tacos and tried one al pastor, one grilled shrimp, and one shredded chicken. The shrimp taco was especially flavorful, and the al pastor was packed with taste. My buddy got the dry rub wings (I tried one—amazing!) and also ordered street tacos, which he loved.

They’ve only been open a couple weeks, but I’m really rooting for them. The food was top-tier, and even though they don’t have margaritas yet, their mocktails are a fun and tasty alternative.

Definitely a new favorite spot—can’t wait...

Wow. I’m so glad this place was recommended to me for lunch. What a great place to grab a bite and enjoy great company.

Perfect for business lunches or networking over a phenomenal modern Mexican meal. Ghost does not disappoint. The food and drinks are presented well, way beyond expectations. But nothing tops how amazing the staff is. So they very friendly and so well educated with everything they have to offer.

Our plates were served up fast too. Minimal wait time. The staff made sure to check in on us regularly as well while the food was being prepared. They were also very keen on making sure one of our plates met specific dietary restrictions.

Pretty sure I found my new favorite place for lunch. Highly recommended and conveniently located on south blvd...
