“We've been going to Travis for decades. It's been a local known favorite for a lot of us who grew up in this area and remember many days gone by enjoying Travis Originals with good friends and family. Their food is great and reasonable, and their servers are friendly, courteous, and attentive, and make every visit a pleasurable experience.
I have to recommend their great specials. On Thursday any of their Mexican entrees are exceptional, my favorite is the Wet Burrito, my husband's is the Quesadilla, also the Nachos Supreme. Tuesday they have really good Sloppy Joes, and their Beef Barley soup is a favorite also. Their breakfasts are consistently good, and although they don't have them on the menu and occasionally on holidays they've had crepes which were outstanding. My point is Travis has always been a local favorite for a reason and that is consistent good food, prices and service. When you do it right generations return, and every time we travel we say " You know what they need around here, a Travis ! "“

Not only did he have amazing recommendations of the menu and drinks but he was genuinely a pleasure to be around. Honorable mention for the Lincoln Logs appetizer, the most delicious appetizer ever.“

“I moved to SCS 5 months ago and have never been here before. My family and I have tried carryout from several restaurants and we always end up with Gilbert’s. Great food, service & prices. I had my daughters 1st birthday in their banquet room yesterday and I’m over the moon happy with how it turned out! The staff was super helpful and always around when I needed anything. The food was great, my guests raved about the pizza and spinach dip. I would book events here in the future without a doubt. Look no further for a great American cuisine menu and staff that makes you feel like family!“

I loved being able to customize my burger with so many topping options—everything was super fresh. The staff was friendly, efficient, and the service was quick even during a busy time. The restaurant had a welcoming atmosphere. Harvey’s has definitely become my go-to spot for a satisfying burger and fries. Highly recommend!”

“Tuesdays are $1.50 coney island hotdogs. I ordered but the toppings of chilli mustard diced onion was REALLY what I paid for.

I paid a small UPCHARGE but boy was it worth every penny! Way to go Antonio's Coney Island STILL with the best Coney AROUND“

“Food is always delicious, only issue I have is the service is not always good and the containers they package the to-go food in is Cheap material.

“The soups are my personal favorites. 😊 I’ve tried just about every kind they offer and they are all delicious. I usually order delivery through GrubHub, and I’ve tried several items over the years, but no matter what I’ve ordered it’s always correct and delicious. I highly recommend. 😊“

“My father, Eddie Mesrey (born in Detroit | 1932–1980), grew up in the house that was once attached to Zell’s. He and his brother, George Mesrey (1930–1978), helped their uncle Michael Mesrey (born in Damascus, Syria | 1899–1993) run the little market that previously occupied this space (circa 1930s – 1960s).Back in the day it was known as Little Mike’s Market.Here’s my great-Uncle Mike and an unidentified E&B spokesmodel inside the market at Charlevoix and Seyburn, circa 1960.“

“Of all fast food burgers available in Canada I find Harvey's the best by far, and at least as good as those found at higher prices in more upscale restaurants. I do wish, though, that their buns were a bit wider so that the condiments don't fall off.

Vegetarian options: My wife loves their vegetarian burger (bonus - our cat left her alone!)

Parking: Two parking lot exits - handy, as it's on a very busy street.“

“Was the only place we could find that was actually open in St Clair shores past 9pm during the week. Decent place..nothing to write home about, but I'd eat there again! Waitress was nice. Food was reasonably priced. Buns were a little mushy, but that happens.“

“THE BEST OMELETTE I HAD IN YEARS NOW THIS IS WHAT I'M TALKING ABOUT WOOOOOOO LOVING IT“

“Good food and great service... The former Dog House chili recipe too...Yum...“

“Clean, friendly, attentive, excellent food. You can tell right away when you walk to the door that the owners love this place and are proud of it. I had the steak and eggs, both cooked to my rare/over medium delight and my rye toast actually came with my meal. So important. Loved our waitress Becky. I'm from Sfld and my sisters are in Mt. Clemens. We will make this our meeting spot from now on.“

“This place is an oasis in the sea of fast food trash. I used to come here with friends when we cruised Gratiot in the 70's and 80's and the place is more than clean. It's well lit, the food is excellent and the staff is attentive and friendly. Time might pass but good memories are forever and this place has lots.“
