“O'Mara's has been a Thanksgiving tradition for several years for my family. The food and service is outstanding. The meals this year included 2 turkey dinners with all the trimmings and shrimp scampi. The rice was cold and tastless, which is why the food was rated a 4 instead of a 5. Our waiter was wonderful.“

“I haven't been here yet, but form what I see it seems like it is a pretty nice lil cocktail bar.“

“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.“

“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.“

“My go to venue for local shows!“

“Staff is excellent! Awesome live venue.“

“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.“

“Fantastic burger and friendly bartender“

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

“Phenomenal bourbon selection“

“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!“

“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“

“Popped in last Sunday since my partner and I were craving Mexican-style. Had lower expectations being more of what I thought was a 'bar' or sort of hipster hangout, and... it IS both of those things, but WOW! The food blew me away. The nachos were a large portion and loaded with high quality toppings - the cheese sauce might've been my favorite, but the cotija cheese, fresh jalapeno rings, black beans and pickled onion weren't far behind. And DON'T MISS the chipotle salsa... quite honestly probably the BEST SALSA I've ever had. Not TOO hot but smoky, sweet, robust. Just perfection.
My partner's barbacoa taco and chicken tostada were equally delicious. I had one bite of each and was fully impressed and almost ordered my own but had all those nachos to get through. Aside from the great food, the margaritas were delicious and perfectly strong... and the service was attentive and friendly. If I had to choose anything to nitpick I might request added smaller tables instead of long picnic style ones or that the booths be available for 2 tops (they save them for 4 or more) but I understand that this place is generally for 4-or-more and gets very busy on weekend nights. That said we were plenty comfortable at the side rail or could've sat at the bar if we wanted, so there's ample seating.
All in all, we CAN'T WAIT to go back & I think I'll be ordering some of that amazing salsa to go next time... and maybe 1 more of everything on the menu. 10/10 Fantastic!“

“Great service ………………..“

“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!".“

“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.“

“Although I am not a member of the LGBTQ+ community , I visited here last weekend after frequenting five 15 ! I cannot express enough how refreshing it is was to be at a place where everyone was accepted , validated and safe! This country is a messed up place , but having a place that is welcoming and not to mention FUN will make a difference in someone’s life !“

“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.“

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

“A place to go to feel the Detroit house vibe. In a popular neighborhood. Easy to find affordable accommodation around. You are likely to meet legends of the Detroit music scene there

Kid-friendliness: No

Wheelchair accessibility: Yes. All on the ground floor“

“The food was ???…Kudos to the COOK! SHE knows what she’s doing and We thoroughly enjoyed everything from the queso to the double decker tacos! Atmosphere?? Vibes! Also we had the greatest server! Dylan! Funny, attentive, and handsome! We will definitely be back!“

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

“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.“

“Friendly staff!! Quick service.“

“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.“

“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“

“This place is one of a kind amazing! We arranged a tour of the production facility for my husband’s birthday and could not have been more pleased. The owner was so friendly and welcoming! Mead and cider were excellent. Can’t rave enough about this place! Wait staff do not take tips. They donate any tip money to charity because they said the owners “take great care of their employees!” WOW! You will not be disappointed- get there!“

“The perfect, laid back place to enjoy amazing food and delicious cocktails! I am obsessed with the pineapple mule, the make their own infused pineapple vodka. The live jazz on Thursdays is the perfect reason to make this a weekly visit!“

“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!“

“The cocktails were very good and unique. Not the basic old fashioned with a fancy name slapped on it. These cocktails seemed much more creative. Speakeasy, cozy vibes.

Parking: Free parking on site with mobile security in the gated lot.“

“Have not paid out MULTIPLE bands after preforming. Refuses to get back to anyone's text, calls, or emails. Theres better venues in the area who will actually pay you for the tickets you sold 🫡“

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

“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!!!“
