“So far, it's one of the BEST pizza restaurants I've been to since I lived in Michigan. The employees are hard-working locals and have an overall chill vibe no matter race or age. The amount of care and respect they put into the food make you feel like you're eating a home cooked one and not something just rushed to you.“
“Been following for a long time and finally got to go last night. Service was a little on the struggle bus, but they were very friendly and tried hard. The beet salad was a little uneventful, so we were slightly worried this was going to be a disappointing evening. And then the entrees finally came out. My wife is a vegan and she knew going into it the menu would be limited for her (she knew I wanted it) so the only thing she could get was the pasta dish, and we both have decided it was the best pasta dish we had ever tasted. She cleaned her plate. I had the fried catfish with black beans, and it was literally amazing. Like, I’m going to dream about it. We live almost an hour and a half away, and it was worth the drive.“
“Fun little hole in the wall bar with great cocktails. Normally when I'm at a place like this, I expect service that is a little aloof and "too cool" for customers.The bartender was very welcoming and kind, I definitely look forward to coming back here.“
“Wow! This was the first time here. I'm so glad that we stopped by, the bartender tonight was soo sweet and we had a great time. I recommed 10/10. It's very intimate space. So great for date night, girls night, all of the above! I'm bringing my hubby next time. ♥️“
“The Tap Room is a historic bar in Downtown Ypsilanti. The service is fantastic. Particularly Tawny and Justin, they are amazing!The food is perfect bar food. The whiskey and beer selection are on point.You can shoot pool or just kick back and chill.It’s the perfect neighborhood bar.“
“My husband and I went to Mash for the first time last Saturday to see the Memphis Thrillbillies. The venue was intimate and the drinks were just right! The atmosphere was friendly and everyone had a great time. We didn’t order any food, but people around us did and they seemed to really enjoy it. Great place to see a live band play!“
“I visited La Rosa Cigar Lounge last week.The lounge is really low-key and unassuming. You'll find no grandiloquence here. It leans into old-school lounge vibes with low lights and dark paint.It's located on a block of connected storefronts on the portion of Michigan Avenue where east and west are separated.The inside space is large enough to accommodate quite a few people. There are televisions to watch sporting events while relaxing in comfortable chairs.There seemed to be a decent selection of spirits. The bar itself seemed to seat about eight people.We stopped by because I wanted to pick up a few of my favorite Black-owned boutique cigars and have a quick drink before dinner.The bartender was really sweet. She shared tips about when to return for a visit and a bit about the clientele. We enjoyed talking with her about pop culture and food. The food here is supposed to be really good. There are only a few other cigar lounges in the greater Detroit area that offer food and spirits; a few more, if you don't mind a 40-minute drive.The humidor is on the smaller side, but it definitely has potential. I spotted a few of my favorite cigars and brands. The variety will suit many tastes.I found the drinks affordable. If I recall correctly, there are drink specials for weekday happy hour. Individual sodas are available for sale. I didn't notice a coffee situation, but I hope there's one.Live bands play on Friday and Saturday.They are closed on Monday and Tuesday and are open Wednesday - Sunday. Hours are 5:00 pm to 11:00 pm, Wednesday, Thursday and Sunday; and 5:00 pm to 12:00 am on Friday and Saturday.Locker memberships are available.I didn't notice if there was a nearby parking lot. We parked on the street.In the coming week, I see that they are hosting an event with a Black-owned boutique cigar brand owner.I hope to see more of that for sure.They are on socials. Upon viewing their website, I see that they also have an app. I'm curious as to what it offers.“
“Decor is lovely, very cozy. My boyfriend and I came here for impromptu date night. I didn’t take any pictures for once, BUT everything we tried was delicious. I had bruschetta. He had Cesar salad with chicken. We split a peach pot pie and tiramisu. So luxurious! Must try in Ypsi!“
“My husband and I went here yesterday, around 1-2 pm on a Saturday. We went with my stepdaughter and her boyfriend, who live barely two blocks away. Luckily for us, they weren't crazy busy. The inside is open and airy, with beautiful but simple wood throughout. We had an appetizer of the pimento cheese and warm pita.... amazing. Ice cold and excellent Coke, that was refilled without being asked for, which was nice. We ordered two of the brisket sandwiches, one with fries, the other with salad, the smoked turkey sandwich ( a version of a turkey Ruben, with a twist), with fries, and the veggies/three ways ( beautiful roasted cauliflower, asparagus and brussel sprouts in a bed of creamy grits ). Everyone was very happy with their food, the fries were dangerously good and the veggie dish could have easily been shared by two or three people. We would go back again.“
“Started out rough with the initial server. Waited 15 minutes while he flirted with a guest. Got up walked to the bar and let me tell you, first class service. Shannon is absolutely phenomenal. If you like food, definitely a go to. 10/10 recommend. Shannon knows her stuff, made recommendations when we asked and had a good time serving you can tell.“
“We're in town from Illinois visiting our daughter and we chose this eatery and distillery. We are very impressed: the nachos were loaded, delicious, and plentifu ( Be sure to request both cheeses), every drink was excellent according to my family, and my choice of "Old fashioned was perfect (I ended up purchasing a bottle of their Bond bourbon their 4 year version, one of the smoothest full bodied bourbons I've had). Our pizzas choices were: "Chicken Pesto" and Willow Run" which is made from their delicious homemade sauce. The decor is an eclectic collection of brass instruments and antique boat engines from above and the ceiling surrounding a full sized aircraft adorned with a homage to Rosie the Riveter. The servers were also attired as Rosie the Riveter. Our server, "Kylie" was an absolute professional server, she offered excellent suggestions and it was obvious she really enjoyed her job. Excellent service, exceptional food and atmosphere. This is a hidden gem.“
