“Had the absolute best experience. I've frequented a few Michelin star restaurants and the Highlands definitely deserves one! Took my boyfriend for his birthday, and we both got different courses so combined we tried 6 dishes - the bread and butter is superb, loved the prawns, tuna crudo is fantastic, NY strip cooked to perfection. Highly recommend!!“

“Stopped in during the NFL draft weekend. Took about 5 minutes to get a table. Our server, Rebecca, was fantastic. Being as busy as they were, she had our drinks and waters on the table promptly and answered our questions about a few menu items. Went with the Truffled Bumblebee for an appetizer, which consisted of whipped ricotta, bee pollen, fig and truffle honey served with Walnut focaccia bread. Outstanding dish. Even my nephew, who is a picky eater enjoyed it. Ordered a larger pizza and it was enough to feed all three of us. Dough was good, toppings were fresh and it really tasty. Definitely recommend a visit.“
“OMG Dave and Amelia are the best mixologist duo. Hubby and I came across Two Birds on google and were impressed with the reviews and photos. Our first visit was nothing short of amazing filled with luxurious and herbaceous cocktails. The atmosphere and vibes in Two Birds was very refreshing. Mature crowd, great music, tasty drinks. We will definitely be coming back as regulars to this establishment. Cheers and Happy Holidays!Tasha & Chad“
“Such a beautiful bar! The design was perfect. I think these were possibly the best cocktails I have had in my life. If you plan on going make reservations because it is very small inside. We got there and didn't have reservations but the host helped us make reservations and we got in about 30 minutes later.“
“Brought my son and his friends for his birthday. The staff was fantastic! Very friendly and helpful. We had our own table and area for snacks and drinks and they provided all of the plates, cups, and plasticware! We will definitely be back and would recommend for a party or fun night out.“

“Food was phenomenal, drinks were great, service was even better! You can tell their ingredients are fresh and their dough is homemade. We were too busy enjoying the food to remember to take photos so this is all we got. Will definitely come back again!“

“First time trying Detroit style pizza and I was not disappointed. This pizza is so good! I had the super with olives and sausage. The crust was delicious. My wife had the chicken tenders and fries. The tenders were prepared in house and the wedge fries were perfect.“

“Stayed at the Siren for a week....went to Paramita almost every night, as it's directly beside the hotel. Echoing what others have already said, very chill space...great staff, great tunes, and a really well-curated selection of wine, beer and vinyl. I walked away with three albums, one of which is Fela's Zombie album. It was just so cool to pop down there at like 11pm and have a beer and listen to a live DJ. Really good spot.“

“Didn't eat anything so I can't rate it but had a couple of drinks which are pricey I ended up paying $30 for 2 drinks which $5 of that was a tip. 2 drinks should never cost $25 regardless of what event is going on. Lots of steps going from the entrance to the bar to the restroom and so on but I liked the feel of the place., when it's closing time it's closing time they want you out and doors closed by 11. All in all it's a good place to check out.“

“No food menu other than a soup of the day made by the barmaids mother. Whatever she feels like cooking, the day we visited is split pea, and not a fan of peas, this was loaded with chunks of ham and potatoes. Very stick to your ribs soup. A shot and a beer rounded out the “meal” the bartender was super friendly even had us sign her up”out of towners” book as we were from Alabama. When you search dive bar this is a go too place. Don’t let the doorbell deter you, or the seedy neighborhood. Stop in and see the “Oldest Bar in Detroit”“
“We had Wanita as a server and she was phenomenal! I've been here so many times and her service was the best I've ever had here! Such a genuine person and great server! If she's not a manager she should be one! Will be coming back and asking for wanitas service everytime I am here from now on! THANK YOU WANITA!“

“Great place if your into enjoying a good atmosphere and great food at exceptional well low prices . When they have a band it's like it's 2 bars in one as you can still enjoy your normal pub with very little notice other than more people unless you enter the stage part of the bar. Highly recommend this place“

“Had a great dining experience here for girls night. Our server Rosario was very attentive and made sure we had a great time. We ordered some shareable appetizers and had sushi and sashimi for dinner, which were mostly recommended by our server. The dishes were phenomenal. Each of us ordered the sei less cocktail, which is available to be served in a pitcher size. We definitely enjoyed our time here ✨“

“The New York Strip special on Tuesday is fabulous and a great value! Delroy is working the grill and makes your steak to order. Although I am likely in the minority, I love my steak blue rare and Delroy doesn't disappoint. Overall, the bar has a very friendly and welcoming atmosphere and a wonderful group of people who regularly come to hang out.“

“Upscale bar and bookshop that recently opened in fall 2023. I enjoyed my first visit over the weekend with crabcakes and a Romeo& Juliet cocktail. The waitstaff and kitchen did a great job with accommodating to my food allergies. I was also able to sample Tolkien's Beren& Luthien from one of the many bookshelves stocked with recently published novels.It should be noted that the main focus of this location is the alcoholic beverages, not coffee or food. For food think Café DIA snack style, not a full meal ( table bread, soup, salad, appetizers, etc)There is an elevator for mobility accommodation however wheelchair or scooter users may still find navigating the floorplan a tight fit.The decor choices feel like a yatch club bar for Oxford literature professors, which I find is a nice change from the current ultra modern trends. I do look forward to this bar settling in over time into a more relaxed or perhaps artistic atmosphere. That being said, I do look forward to visiting again.Also, please see the host/hostess to be seated.Dietary restrictions: The waitstaff and kitchen were able to accommodate for my fungi trigger food allergy.Parking: Don't forget your quarters if you want to park on the street parking. There is no app to download and pay.Wheelchair accessibility: Elevator is present and there is decent bathroom space.“

“This place is my home away from home. I haven't lived in Detroit in almost 20 years, but I still love all the memories and friendships I created in this place. It's the one place I make it a point to visit every time I'm in the D. Great music, fantastic service, and always a good time. If you haven't visited yet, make it a point to drop in.“

“HIGHLY recommend stopping by. I happened upon it (visiting Detroit) on a rainy night, was pleasantly surprised by the hours, offerings, atmosphere, and the lovely staff. I returned maybe 4 more times over my trip, staff was always lovely. Highly recommend the iced Irish coffees and their drip coffee offerings were always stellar. The little cookies I got were phenomenal. I met the owner the last day and he was very jovial and enthusiastic, talked about the music and how they shift the vibes for Detroit's Opening Day. Thanks y'all!“

“I recently returned to the Hook & Ladder after a long absence, and I was not disappointed. Our large group of friends decided to meet here for dinner and drinks before going to see a live play further up Seminole Street at the Kordazone Theatre. I made some new friends and invited them to join our group. The staff didn’t mind at all when I added two more tables to our grouping to accommodate everyone. My order of pulled pork sliders and fries was delicious and very filling. The coleslaw on the side of my plate was creamy, which was an interesting twist on the usual coleslaw that you get at restaurants. Beers are priced reasonably.“

“Great historic neighbourhood bar with a tucked away patio and lots of divey charm. Great place for a sunny afternoon pint, dinner, or a night out. They have regular karaoke and live music, and you are bound to have a good time no matter what your scene. It's a local favourite!“
“The crowd is nice on Thursday- Sundays , security plenty of parking and nice birthday party events. The drinks are reasonable and the waitresses be on their job. Like a cheers atmosphere you wanna go where everyone knows your name. Ms Krystal is sweet and loving and people be dressed to impress there. TV's seating 💺 ♥️ people call it a "hole in the wall" but those same people be in attendance "lol They come from all over the city to this place you must get there early on Sunday nights cause DJ Tony Rome be on hot blazing 🔥 fire. Dance, entertainment etc. Everytime my out of town guest / sweetheart comes to visit Detroit she has to come there before she leaves its a must.“
“Was in the area for a service and a large group of us headed over here after. Played a few games of pool and enjoyed a few mix drinks, bottled beer and draft. All were really good. Service was quick. atmosphere was nice. Seemed more like a local fun hangout then a ritzy place. And I mean that in a great way. We all felt welcome even with a larger group.“

“We love this place in the summer when the patio area is open. Drinks are always hit or miss, but this time we came and they had the sippin Santa pop up menu which we've had elsewhere and the drinks were fantastic! Bartender told us a lot about the pop up and made great drinks. My husband ordered a whiskey ginger and he used a fresh ginger syrup which took the drink up a notch. Always will be back.“

As a local, they are a go-to for delicious burgers and drink specials.They also have karaoke on Friday nights and fish fry specials including perch and coconut shrimp dinners. I recently ordered a coconut shrimp dinner for carryout and was super impressed! The service is always fast and friendly, even when the place is packed. They are also great for catering!“

“We came from Sanford, MI. We were there for a special event. Music was great and our bartender was wonderful. She did an awesome job and even walked with me to my car. I really appreciate that since it. Can't wait to visit more after my move down there.“
“We absolutely love this place. Probably the best priced, best atmosphere, best people in the park. They have darts and as of late, pinball. Outdoor patio for dogs that is heated in wintertime. And the bartenders are always the kindest. A must see!“

“It has been over 2 years since we have gone here for dinner. In the past I wasn't overwhelmed with their food, even though they're beer selection is top notch. Glad I let my wife make the call and we went here for dinner.We all ended up getting burgers, and my wife and I both commented that these were the best burgers we have had in a long, long time. Howlers and Growlers is now firmly back in my radar when we want to go out for burgers and a beer.“

“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.“
“Actually had to ask for an itemized bill because it was so much cheaper than I expected I thought they forgot some of our drinks on the bill. Great music and the staff was top notch! Food is just snacks but you can bring in your own take out. Cool “
“Okay, first of all… open mic’s on Mondays, amazing. All the performers are great! The love for music resonates really well here! Everyone is just here to have a good time and you can feel it! $6 Walkervilles, great deal — great tasting beer.I was getting TOO drunk and needed some food to absorb the alcohol. I noticed they had $6 hot dogs for 1 and $10 for 2 hotdogs. THEY ALSO HAD VEGETARIAN HOT DOGS!I ordered a veggie dog, expecting it to be a plain veggie dog with a bun, no condos. Instead, I got a BEAUTIFULLY CHARRED vegetarian hot dog with the perfect and well balanced amount of ketchup, mayo, Dijon mustard and a nice thick juicy pickle slice!!!! HANDS DOWN… BEST VEGETARIAN HOT DOG I’VE EVER HAD! I was more than impressed, more than satisfied! Thank you Phog for great music, great service, and great food ?“

“Liz the owner takes care of all the patrons of the Elwood and makes sure everyone is having a good time. The burgers are great, my only detraction is they have no coffee, like no machine at all. It’s disappointing when you want a cup of Joe before the lions game on a cold morning but oh well.“
“The hotel was having technical difficulties and was unable to assign our room. So they told us that we could have a drink on them. Well we headed to the WXYZ bar to await our room. The bartender was very friendly and helpful. I chose a whiskey sour and he chose a tequila sour. I had never heard of a tequila sour and had a taste of his. It was delicious. And I'm not a tequila drinker. I guess you can put anything with bitters and it will taste good. Haha. We tried some of the Bourbon punch that they offered us but that was a bit on the strong side for me. I did not see anyone ordering food, so I'm not sure if they served food but I don't think they did. They have a bunch of great areas to chill including an outdoor patio area with a great view of the bustling city. They also have a pool table that would be fun if you're in the mood. Our room was soon ready and it was time to check in. If you're in the area check this place out. You don't have to have a room there to enjoy the bar area so don't worry about that. Cheers!“

“The panko breaded perch with the Hawaiian salad was excellent. I love the spaced out relaxed atmosphere where you can enjoy a private conversation. Service was spot on. I also like a restaurant that serves rolls or bread that is specially made served right after you sit down. Nice job.“

“Hubby and I just relocated and are new to town. We stopped in for our first visit and Patty and Justin treated us like regulars. So friendly and such great customer service. We felt very welcomed. The drinks were great and the food was delicious! The double cheeseburger and totchos were impressively scrumptious. The burger was so juicy and one of the best we’ve had in town! We are looking forward to many more great memories at Old Pony. Cheers friends!“

“First and foremost I've only Uber eats here and this is my 2nd visit! Ok, it's hard to find a good BBQ place and this is one of them! It's not those baked ribs like Famous Dave's or smoked like Billy Sims and most places! It almost give u a Nicola's taste maybe if I had to compare. The BBQ sauce for me is GREAT. It's almost identical to my family's recipe! It's not thick and it's like they know it's good because you don't get much lol Bad: there's not much sauce on the meat itself so you're gonna almost always want to order extra sauce. This bread? Baby this bread was delicious! I haven't tasted the baked sweet potato yet but I'm sure it's good as well. I've previously had rib tips. I didn't care for those. There wasn't really any meat and no sauce at all (I asked for it on the side) Now these 2 little containers were 1.25 for xtra sauce lol so let me just make that clear!“
