“Hazel’s is one of those no-brainer places you hit with friends or family when you’re looking for something casual. Some dishes are better than others but overall the seafood is fresh and tasty. The servers have all been very tentative and nice over the years which makes for a positive experience. This is definitely a place I will continue to patron and recommend.“

“Fantastic burger and friendly bartender“

“My go to venue for local shows!“

“Food was good and service was acceptable (nothing special) but you had a group of 5 guys leave your restaurant last night somewhat bewildered after your waitress Katarina made it quite clear she was not happy with the 20% tip we gave her. Apparently, our stay of about 3 hours eating and drinking was excessive. We may not be back.“

“Kelly's Bar has done it, reached the top tier, Smashing records with burgers that bring cheer. Double patties nestled in sesame embrace, Cheese, lettuce, onions, and sauce, a taste chase. Rex Packing's meat, a blend that's divine, Crafted with care, a true foodie's sign. Susan's verdict? The burger's a hit, But wait, there's more, a wings summit! Moist, crispy wings, a flavor affair, Cajun rub and Buffalo, a spicy pair. Lemon pepper adds its zesty grace, A feast for taste buds in every case. Broccoli cheddar bites, a friend's delight, Adding depth to this culinary flight. Corned beef egg rolls, a twist so fine, Crunchy, dainty shells, a unique design. Kelly's Bar, a haven of taste and glee, Where flavors dance and spirits roam free. A culinary journey, an epicurean play, Where every dish shines in its own way.“

“I really enjoyed my 3 vegan tacos. They have about 5 taco options plus vegan nachos and a couple other dishes. Vegan options didn’t feel like an afterthought which I usually encounter in restaurants. Great service. Look forward to going back. Updated from previous review on 2025-08-24“

“Very popular restaurant and bar. We came on the weekend this time for brunch. Large menu with omelets, benedicts, french toasts. Regular menu has wings,sandwiches and ? .We got the wings and they(3)were large full and sticky. Our omelettes were good with plenty inside. The French toast too. My friend thought their benedict not their best and probably wouldn't get it again. Ask about gluten free or vegan. Betty get GF bread or bun please.

It was busy and the crowd was watching the game so it was fun. Tony U was our server and was on it. ?
Cocktails were pricey to me considering the size

Parking: Free on Sunday and need ferndale parking app otherwise“

“Phenomenal bourbon selection“

“we came in yesterday for a little family dinner. Danny, our server, was newly back to work at Pronto and I've never seen a server work so hard to accommodate people and ensure we were well cared for. the entire staff and clientele were so kind and encouraging. I spent most of the meal examining the lighting fixtures (there are so many!!!), and our family searched for disco balls (also SO MANY!). The food was amazing and the service was fast. we took our 14 year old there for dinner because they needed to see that there are safe, public spaces for them - and the awe and amazement in their eyes the whole time told me that we found our new "regular" spot. the music was fun, the service was spectacular, and the entire vibe was just lovely. and as a lighting nerd, they play with light beautifully, even during a routine dinner service. to the staff at Pronto - particularly Danny - thank you. as a mom trying to figure out how to best parent a child who isn't like me, you gave me immeasurable gifts last night. you gave my child hope for a future as an adult. we love the local youth programming available but it lacks a connection to adults who are thriving and living full, beautiful lives. seeing that in action was everything our kid needed and so much more. thank you.“

“top notch entertainment and world class drinks“

“Great service ………………..“

“The staff is awesome! loved the beer and the Tuesday special pork tacos!“

“Staff is excellent! Awesome live venue.“

“I have been enjoying B. Nektar for many years. I have both attended and volunteered events. Carrie is awesome and a great tour guide. Joe, Bobbi, Chase and really everyone that works here is great. Friendly and laid back atmosphere. Excellent mead! Highly recommend!“

“A Californian and a Texan walk into a Midwest Taco joint… and are pleasantly surprised! Fun concept Tex-Mex menu with unique choices of sauces, meats, toppings, and shells to choose from. They have flights of special dips and signature margaritas, allowing for a fun and creative tasting experience starting with apps and drinks. For the mains, you can either build your own or taco/bowl/burrito or choose from one of their signature pairings from a large menu. They have several meat and non meat options to choose from, and our server Colby did an awesome job helping us navigate the menu to create a great Taco Tuesday experience. He took great care of us and made the fun but large menu even more approachable and enjoyable. Would definitely recommend trying it out, just keep in mind that if you are from CA/TX and like things SPICY, that the spice level on all items is geared towards a midwestern pallet aka on the milder side.“

“When you’re there, you’re home. Fun, warm local bar.“

“Best jam space, great staff, dope spot“

“I love this place. Their tacos are absolutely delicious. Queso and chips and their wings were really good as well. this is my go to place when I need tacos though.“

“It's an okay spot at best, but only because the staff is great.. except the security dudes. All of the security fellas look and speak as if they are mad about something. Maybe it's their job to look hard??? IDK If you're okay with cigar and weed smoke, you'll probably enjoy Soul on Ice. During warm weather days the patio is only for smokers because you cannot escape the smoke no matter what. Do not expect to lounge outside if you're not a smoker of "something". The stinch of smoke gets indoors too because people are smoking at both doors, or they are standing with one foot in and the other out. There's a few ghetto people that go there, but, that's pretty much expected in Detroit, so there's no running from that type. At least Soil on Ice don't water down their drinks, or replace top shelf with cheap stuff like TV is very well known to do. 4.5 stars out of 5 for the DJs, food, and drinks, but the mean-faced security staff and cigars and weed all over the place brings the rating down to 1.0001. Yes, 1.0001 stars! We're rooting for Soul on Ice to continue on for many years, but my wife and I will likely not return unless we have absolutely nothing else to do, or they rearrange the whole smoking setup. Non-smokers want to party indoors and out too! I'm done with this review. I'm off to put my clothes through five cycles of hot water washing using Tide Super Duty Scent Destroyer Extra.“

“It’s open!! Very wonderful servers 🍸“

“Orange Peel Theory is hands-down one of the best summer drinks I’ve ever had. The blend of Holiday Spirit Epsilon Tequila with coconut, orange, and citrus is insanely smooth, refreshing, and just the right balance of tropical and tangy. It’s like a beach vacation in a glass. I’d serve this at every campsite, tailgate, and backyard hang if I could—absolute 10/10!“

“first time participating in drag queen bingo- Soo much fun! A room full of love, joy, laughter, and happiness! thank you queens for being a ray of sunshine in this world“

“Our favorite restaurant when we come to Royal Oak! Great food without breaking the bank for a date night.“

“Dublin Donkey drink was awesome.“

“My Sister & Brother-In-Law hosted my Godson's Baptismal Luncheon at The Polka Dot. IT WAS PERFECT! The food was AMAZING. The kids loved the Original Nintendo System. The adults loved gathering around the bar. This venue will definitely be considered for all future family events.“

“Everything is great here. The burgers are amazing. The walleye is really good as well. Friendly staff and good service.“

“This was my first time here and I attended a techno music 🎶 event. It was very interesting and fun! Great atmosphere, positive vibes and very attentive and hard working bartenders. Paid like $15 for like a 6 hour music event, different DJs took turns playing and overall it was a good experience!“

“House music Thursday will never let you down. The environment is mature and the vibe is classy. I would definitely recommend.“

“Hands down, my absolute FAVORITE BAR in the Detroit Metro area. August the bartender is one of the coolest people you'll ever have the pleasure of meeting and knows how to pour a damn good drink. Be sure to ask August for a shot of Fernet and he'll tell you "It's like 1000 fairies dancing on your tongue!".“

“place is great! now you are doing stand up nights? hell yes“

“A fukkin fantastic bar with a great staff. I LOVE the classic movies playing constantly and only wish you had more t-shirts available. Anytime I'm in Detroit I find a reason to stop by.“

“Yvette is the bomb! Love her ❤“

“Ominous atmosphere. Weird vibes. Definitely had a paranormal experience in the bathroom. Threatening aura. 10/10, highly recommended.“

“This place has great food!! it's definitely a neighborhood bar so if you're from the neighborhood you'll be comfortable there!! Go see my girl Tiffany she's got you!! Owner is super nice let's the party get fun but not out of control...I'll be back“

“Friendly staff!! Quick service.“

“This place is amazing! We were waiting for a comedy show to start, we weren't sure about it at first, but felt right at home when we walked in! Sarah was our waitress, who is also a 15 year experienced bartender on the side, was AMAZING to say the least! She was so friendly, helped make us crazy custom shots and was happy to do it!!

Umm they had FUNNEL CAKE FRIES! yeah, like French fries coated in FUNNEL cake batter!!

I've added this place to my absolute favorites for when I'm in town, make sure to ask for Sarah and TIP her MORE than 20% because she's more than worth it!!!“

“Fantastic food. Pizza was amazing as well as the chicken Parm.“

“I tried Little Mary’s ballroom lessons with Kevin... Lit ? then tried karaoke night... Lit ? now I’m down there almost every night! Plus, Lavan is the man! He’s doing an amazing job running the place! My go to spot because the people there became my friends! #Cool spot with genuine ppl ?“
