“MBTB is a local treasure! The atmosphere is welcoming and perfect for a date night, friends getting together, or even stopping in by yourself! They have something for everyone and the service has always been amazing. I love the commitment to Michigan products from the wine to the snacks all the way to the merchandise. They also offer so many fun events and classes and put a lot of thought and creativity into everything they do! I have been to all of the locations and each one is wonderful. Cheers!“

“We love O’Grizzly’s. When Hoops closed, we needed to find a new favorite spot. We found it! Cold drinks, great service and delicious food. It’s our go to spot.“

“NKU Track team in town for Horizon League Outdoor Track Championships; doing a team bonding evening before the following days competition.
Bob and staff took excellent care of us!
Our group hit the buffet and we did have a period when the kitchen was struggling to keep up with the demand early on however no one went hungry for the evening. Hated to see full pizzas go to waste.
Team had alot of fun with darts, golf & axe throwing.
Fun concept, thanks for your hospitality.

“Came here after being ignored at twin peaks after being seated. Food was decent and service was amazing. Wife needed gluten free. She said the gf crust great. Payton was our waitress. She was amazing. Always checking on us and making sure we didn't need anything and how the food was.“

“Me and my girl love this location. Never had a bad experience in the half dozen times we've been there. Folks are always kind. D was our server today and they killed it. Had everything we needed to enjoy our meal. Looking forward to watching the Odyssey and enjoying a meal afterwards at Chili's“

“Ben the host, I believe, and Heather the bartender were both amazing! I had a carry out order for my parents and Ben put it back under the heat lamp while I got some oysters at the bar. Doesn’t sound like much but he had a great attitude and was very kind and I appreciated that. Great service from those two!! Will be back!“

“Came here for a quick dinner with some of my girlfriends after my wedding dress fitting, and it was the perfect spot. The lobster bisque was absolutely delicious, and the menu offered plenty of variety with lots of great options to choose from. We each tried different chef selections, and everyone loved both their food and drinks. I especially appreciated the thoughtful mocktail menu for anyone not drinking but still wanting something special. The service was friendly and very attentive, which made the experience even better. I would definitely go back!“

“First time visiting Ignite Tavern and I went because they were hosting a trivia night. Food was excellent and when I asked our waiter, Dave, what he'd recommend he gave me plenty of options to choose from. Then when I asked about the soup he provided me a sample taste and it was so good I ordered a bowl. We were there for about 2 hours and Dave kept coming by to check on us and top off our waters. I will definitely be back again for both trivia and the good food and service.“

“Great bar, and great food. New cook made the best Caesar wrap I've ever had.

Update: 03/26
Came in for taco night, THESE TACOS ARE AMAZING. I got two corn tortillas with everything on them. The fresh jalapeño is diced to a nice size, complimentary of the taco itself instead of large chunks that over power the seasoning. The meat itself was seasoned to perfection. Everything else was fresh and the portions were perfect. Definitely coming back for more taco nights!“

“Love the live music with Tony!“

“We had dinner at Tribu last weekend with another couple and it was one of the best dining experiences. Everything from the ambience, staff, customer service and all of their FOOD were exceptional!! The menu was a soft launch menu as it was their grand opening, but there were so many options that we ended up ordering multiple appetizers, entrees and all of the desserts! Everything was absolutely delicious. The duck wings, tagliatelle, and filet were so flavorful. Great food, great company and great atmosphere. Will definitely be back for more!“

“Dinner last week was great! Our waitress Annabelle was fantastic! Place was busy, but she gave great individual attention and fast drinks ❤️ we will be back!“

“This bar has no food.. You are however welcome to bring in any outside food or have it delivered..

For the people who don't understand- ordering a water and not paying for it doesn't make you a customer-It's not illegal to kick out somebody who is loitering.

This bar lets in plenty of people who need to warm up or use the bathroom. They're real easy to deal with as long as everybody is respectful of one another.

Ordering a water and taking up a seat in a bar that only makes money off of selling drinks and then wondering why you got asked to leave isnt ridiculous But maybe it's why you don't own a business yourself. 🧘‍♀️

Jukebox is usually going and the drinks are cheap cheap.

Monday through Sunday, Noon until 2:00 a.m.

Pretty simple hours.“

“Casual, fast, friendly service. Fun!“

“West End is comfortable, sterling, food flavorful and reasonable price. I had the Wagu burger $18.00. The bar seats are tall and comfortable. From the decor, food and comfort. This bar is over the top. In our neighborhood we have a "Cheers"“

“As others have said, Natasha is the best waitress you could imagine. I don't know how she can memorize everything. Very attentive and friendly. Food was great as well.

And I forgot to mention the great selection of '80s music - not the overplayed-to-death stuff you're used to! Stuff you don't hear every day!“

“Company Holiday Party!! Food is always fantastic, and drink service for SO many people in the back room was amazing as always.“

The staff did a wonderful job accommodating our needs including early seating for our several family members who traveled from across state. Our server was wonderful and did a great job taking orders for separate bills. Our food was quick, correct and absolutely delicious. This restaurant is a family favorite for us. It’s the best seafood in Michigan. We always look forward to our visits and will continue to come here for all of our celebrations. Thank you to our server and the staff for making my daughter’s birthday feel so special!“

“Love this restaurant! We travel from Windsor Ontario to eat here because of the great food and drink. However the best part of Troy Yard House is the staff. Namely Sara who works the bar. She is simply amazing. I marvel at how she commands the bar yet encages with each of her customers. We have been here several times and attend based on Sar's schedule. We truly appreciate her as well the other staff who make this a GREAT place to be!“

“Corner bar is an excellent place for the summertime! The music is great, vibes are good and drinks are delicious. I had the watermelon salad paired with a Hugo spritz, both classic choices. They have a summer capri pop up right now which is so cute for the girlies to hang out and take pics! Service is phenomenal, Angie always takes care of me so well. Plus the owner is extremely friendly, greeting every table. It really shows what a great atmosphere they’ve created! Definitely will be back !!“

“had a blast last night. the 80's band totally rocked. great staff great atmosphere LOTS OF FUN“

“Kids personal pizza with house made dough and sweet-savory sauce. Other kid got the fish & chips; delivered crisp, generous pieces that vanished fast. Wife’s chicken pasta was a tangy and good portion. My cheeseburger on its signature oddly flat in-house bun tasted great. Overall good food, waitress was young, shy, and definitely new but did a good job.“

“First time in in this place. Great atmosphere and very clean. We were celebrating our friends birthday and it was a great time. The staff and the waitresses were amazing. I needed a piece of gum because I ate onions so the waitress Mackenzie went and brought me some. Thank you so much. We will be back. 🙂“

“Visited X-Golf for the first time on November 20th with my husband and son. Had a great time! Jesse, the bartender/waiter/desk person, was beyond friendly and helpful!! Will definitely be returning!“

“You can't call yourself visiting Detroit if you never had Buddy's Pizza.

It's not thin crispy, nor deep-dish, just about right thickness to capture the texture of dough and richness of cheese 🧀.

Ordered their Detroiter and BBQ Conant, had Detroiter before and was amazed, today was amazed by BBQ Conant as well.

Detroiter is tomato rich with cheese and pepperoni, while BBQ Conant is smokey and fresh, good combination for your references if you're thinking about ordering 2 4-squares.“
