“If I could give this 100000 stars I would. My husband and I tried it for the first time today for our anniversary! The service is amazing! The staff all around were so welcoming and kind! The food was hands down the BEST BBQ we have ever ate! We have tried many BBQ places and this is the best we’ve had! We will definitely be going again! Thanks for a wonderful experience!“

“Myneesha is amazing, we can’t wait to have her back. Best food and best service we’ve had here hands down! Jen- Owner, Celestial Farms“

“First time customers (7/12/2025). We needed to find a new BBQ place to satisfy our taste buds since SHEETZ is taking over 12 & Mound. WE FOUND IT. Ordered the Judges' sampler to try their variety. Ribs, Brisket, Pulled Pork, Chicken, Baked Beans and Hush Puppies are ALL EXCELLENT. The Coleslaw could have been a bit creamer, but we didn't come here for veggies or salad. Loved their sauces as well. We will definitely be back and bringing friends.“

“Great food awesome people“

“My food was on fire when I got it and it was excellent I really enjoyed it !!!“

“Dude's BBQ is sick. He hooks it up with extra sides too. However, it's first come, first serve. So you might be standing in line for 30 minutes with 15 other people, get up there to order and whatever you wanted is sold out. If there's huge line, i don't even bother anymore. It's only open like one day a week now, maybe two if you're lucky lol.“

“I stopped in I wanted some food. I decided to check out the Nikola’s. Food was delicious very tasty well cooked. I enjoyed my meal and was so full that I could not even eat my dessert. I will come back again and try the barbecue ribs they looked good.“

“If you are craving for good Chinese food in this area, definitely check out Zhangs BBQ! We did take out, and they only accept cash.

Ordered the crispy pork and roasted duck. I would imagine that eating while everything’s hot would be so much better, but the pork was a little dry with skins that weren’t crispy; however, the duck even when cold was delicious. Usually the ducks I’ve had in Chinese BBQ can be very salty, but this one was a good balance of sweet savory combination. It was tender and fatty, and the skin has a good flavor to it too. Definitely would recommend the roasted duck.“

“The BBQ wings are so good! A bit dry but the seasoning definitely makes up for it. The sides are bomb too, great Mac and cheese, yams, and baked beans. The greens are flavorful but a tad bit on the salty side. The banana pudding is delicious too. Definitely going back!“

“Wont go the extra mile, spent over $200 in aweek , ordered a wing dinner ladt night an was late picking it up, car breaking down even called an told them, got there within the hour to pick up, got home wings were hard and cold!!!! Not real happy now“

“Big thanks to Adam, Brenda Jean, Ely and Molly for making my 55th birthday celebration so fun. Everyone had a great time.“

“One of the best Roast Duck, Roast Pig spot here in Madison Heights. I drive from Lansing just to come pick up roast duck or both when I really wants some or when I'm in the area I always stop by.
They also sell other meat there including cuttlefish, pig ears etc. its a small spot only for pick up and go. Price went up like everything else but cheaper then the one in Grand Rapid. I highly recommend. They only take cash.“

“This spot is the deal went yesterday n came back to food is good seasoning is on point the greens is fire the bake beans better 😘“

“Amazing service and flavorful food! Can’t beat this place!“

“I dined in for the first time a little over a week ago and loved my Cuban! I was determined to sample something else on their menu tonight and while the hubs was figuring out what he wanted, I started to read the reviews and was a bit shocked with a few of them. I too, have a lot of restaurant work in my background and so I paid extra attention tonight. I'm happy to report that my take out experience this evening has been stellar! My call in was handled well and without issue and was ready when I went to pick it up. I only live 5 min away (if that) and the food was really warm, well packaged and delicious. Portions are generous as far as I'm concerned-these Corktown Fries are enough for two and the they don't skimp on the portions of crisp either. I am really glad I've finally been able to get to this place and I'm sure they're on my 'go-to' list from now on.“

“We have no experience of "real" Korean food; we rely on what is offered by local Great Detroit restaurants but I can say what Chung Ki Wa has to offer is in absolute terms of very good quality, tasteful and satisfying. Plus the fact that the place is crowded by Asian guests, once more means a lot. We chose the well known Korean BBQ although in the menu much more is available. 2 types of meat and all the side small dishes that are usual with the BBQ, plus the dih similar to a big omelette with different vegetables. Everything was very good and tasty, no complains at all.“

“Had their pitas catered today at work and they were delicious! Grilled chicken one was excellent!“

“The atmosphere was very nice.The owner was superb. The pizza lacked flavor. Every friday, my son and I eat vegetarian pizza. It needed some spices in the sauce. I love the fact that he put a little container of black olives in the pizza for me. thoughtfulness goes a long way.“

“My first time trying this restaurant. It was pretty good. I had the beef ribs and chicken dinner. The ribs and Potato salad, were delicious. The sauce is fire. The chicken was a little light skin, but it was done all the way through. The greens and mac and cheese needed a little more seasoning, but over all it was good. I'll be returning.“

“Sweet husband took me for my birthday! Great food! Decent service- Did not mention on menu or from server that tip would be automatically billed in. Would have liked to known at the beginning before ordering, just common courtesy. Idk if anyone else dealt with this. DELICIOUS DELICIOUS FOOD THO“

“I grew up in the neighborhood where this is located. The food is superb, especially the fried chicken. Excellent subs & pizza too. One of my new favorite carry out places

Parking: You must back in for street parking along 9 Mile Rd.“

“great place to eat the hospitality was good the food was on time hot I'll be back“

“My pizza for the last 5 years has been excellent. The service is awesome. Delivery is awesome. The people are awesome. They have never failed me just one time, but he corrected it. And I've been extremely happy ever 5 years. I will not buy my pizza nowhere else.. 5 🌟 🤩 ⭐️ 🌠“

“All the way from Indy we love y’all! I’ve visited plenty of times and brought one of my daughters this time! She agrees this menu beats all the bbq in Indy. She especially enjoyed the staff! She will be back for the ribs mac n cheese yams and greens and to try something else on the menu! Thank you“

“Johnson was our server he was great!!“

“I had an experience where my steak was not cooked medium well and the situation was not rectified at the moment. Mark (the manager) called my cellphone and offered a voucher to make things right. I appreciate the extra effort!“

“Great pricing, great food, and fast delivery. Will be using them again! Thank you guys!!“

“Food was in a great price range, also fresh hot chicken!🔥“

“We ordered a Detroit Style deep dish BBQ Chicken pizza.
It was excellent! They use delicious, high quality BBQ sauce and superior quality toppings.
The crust had an excellent crust too (we choose plain but they have some flavored crust options too.). Great bacon!!

Will be back again - regularly. Very happy with the pizza.“

“I grew up around the corner from here and it’s BEEN THE ONLY Chinese I will get… idc how far I am. This is the best authentic Chinese with REAL CHICKEN… not that soggy dark meat stuff. 🤣😩 GREAT portions it last for at least two days or share“

“This is our 2nd time ordering takeout from this location and it's soo good! 1st time we got the Mega Deal, and it came with everything pizza, chicken, rib tips, potato wedges and a cookie. $40 This time we got 20 split wings, pizza and stuffed bread so good! $35 This location is the Best!“

“This is the best pizza ve found so far. Cooked to perfection, staff was fny and had everything out before they said it would and it was cooked, sauced, and topped perfectly. Thank you for giving me a great pizza. We ate it too fast before I could get a picture. Thank you again“

“Down here for a doctors appointment tomorrow morning, staying at the guest house at Henry Ford Hospital, we were looking for a pizza place we don’t have up in the U.P., the delivery driver was very kind, and was delivered very fast! Food was delicious!“

“My father and I went in today for the 5 year celebration and our server Tajma was amazing. She knew the beers like the back of her hand and we had a great conversation about local breweries and beers we are huge fans of! Keep up the great work. Also the wings were phenomenal honey sirracha delicious, and the platter had so much amazing stuff we had to take a lot home! We will be back.“

“Always yummy and delicious“

“I grew up on BBQ cooked over charcoal, which is quite different than the smoked ribs i usually encounter. Yes, cooking over charcoal does sometimes create that bark on one side of the meat but i love it. This place has had me in a chokehold for the past month, with me driving 30 mins each way to eat. I love it. I am a large end kind of guy and this place is the best i've had with only Vicky's coming in second. Once, the ribs were fatty but i doin't care. Every other time, they were delicious.

Regarding the sides... This is where most BBQ joints struggle. The Coleslaw and potato salad are either off a Sysco truck or similar to Kroger prepared food. The green beans kind of remind me of the green beans you'd get if the church had a bbq dinner sale... not bad. The baked beans... not the best. When i order, i usually have some macaroni made at home and i always have a bag of cooked greens in the freezer. I live solo so i will make food, freeze it and have it along side their meat. I did not like the greens there but the potato salad and slaw, for what it is; unless you're going to be making it... boiling and peeling potatoes...dicing celery and belle pepper, this works :)

I love this place AND the girls working are always EXTREMEMLY friendly. I always tip them- even though they never seem to expect it. I love this place and pray they never change.“

“The portions are generous, prices are more than fair, and the staff were very friendly and professional. Most importantly, this is the cleanest restaurant and bathroom that I’ve ever been to!!! My family and I will definitely be returning!!!“

“Papa’s Pizza is more than just a pizza place — they have a great selection of food for everyone. Of course, the pizza is tasty, but they also offer chicken, ribs, shrimp, lasagna, and much more.

The menu is big, so it’s easy to find something you’ll like.“

“Amazing food and never disappointed! They rock!“

“Oh my goodness, the food was absolutely delicious! I especially adored the bread they gave me while I was waiting for my order; it was so good and tasted like it was just freshly baked. The meat was fantastic too; I had the flo’s filet medium well (I’d suggest asking for a bit more medium next time) and the sides are great specially the mac and cheese“

“It was all very good, the food, the service, and the atmosphere. What you want to know is this: the food was all fried and there wasn't anything special about it and it's not cheap. It was good, I'd probably eat it again, but if I don't, I won't feel like I missed anything.“

“Now I have trying so many soul food places even those downtown and Southfield so call upscale restaurants that supposed to have good soul food. Any who this one here meet my taste buds with every black eye pea and rice, smoke chicken wings. Mac&Cheese and yams. Now this is real soul Food. Cause they put the soul in it. Thank you for yall service and I will be coming again real soon.“

“Is a carry out. Ordered a number of pizzas for youth. Manager worked with me to place my order a few days in advance, most helpful, he even purchased me a juice from next door while I was there. Was worried about the Saturday noon delivery.. no worries it was right on time actually 3 minutes early. This Pizzas has a better taste and crust then the typical franchises. Even the plain cheese pizza was tasty and enjoyable.

Parking: Parking adjacent to door.

Wheelchair accessibility: Everything ground level, though the isn't a buzzer to electronically open door.“

“Big Shout Out and Thank you!!!! to Mike. I have to order lunch weekly for our office and Mike has Never let me/us down. The food is Amazing, Fresh, and Delicious, there's rarely any leftovers. Mike always works within my budget. I appreciate you Mike. Kudos to the cook :-)“

“Service was speedy and professional, the order was double checked and accurate, the food was hot and the portions large. The store communicated when an item was unavailable. My order was ready at the expected time. Overall very pleased with the experience and quality. Parking was plentiful and the store is in a convenient location.“

“Andreen was amazing and super friendly and very knowledgeable…. I wish that every take out place would have an employee like her… she was super friendly and very welcoming from the moment my daughter and I walked in…. I ordered smoked bbq chicken and she recommended fries and some bread to make it a meal when I said I didn’t feel like cooking tonight…. Not only did she help me, but she also made sale based of her recommendation… Keep up the good work…
