New American Restaurants near Livonia, MI

“First time going to this restaurant! The food, service, and atmosphere were all great! Our waiter anticipated our needs and took care of things really before we asked. It was a very busy night, but we had reservations. Waited no longer than 5 minutes! The food was very tasty! Loved it! I highly recommend!“

“TJ was the man. He hooked us up with Drinks and recommended great dishes on the menu for me and my 2 coworkers. We will definitely be stopping back here for drinks and dinner the next time we are in town working again.“

“Supernatural is pretty amazing! The staff are really cool, friendly, and did I say cool?! Seriously, I have been going to Supernatural for a little over 8 months (I never knew it existed before then) but I am glad I made that first visit!! The food is great, the beer is amazing!! Shadow Realm is one of my favorites (Oatmeal Stout) and being British by birth, trust me when I say I'm a bit picky when it comes to beer. These guys have it nailed. BTW... Li'l Nicky... You rock! I just tried the Ginger Jalapeno brew that you made me for my birthday and that stuff should be on tap... hopefully it will someday soon! Keep doing what you do guys!! You can bet I'll be back again... and again... and again!!“

“Been getting deliciousness many years for family Christmas gathering. Relatives always look forward to our contribution to the feast!!“

“I like many of you, like using the review score when making purchase decisions. I never just look at the score. I look for the number of reviews and I try to find helpful reviews to give me more incite into what I may be getting into. My wife works in a business where the reviews really matter for bringing in new customers. She often talks about the long-time customers who keep returning but have never left a review. Those are really the voices that should matter more to people who want an honest review of the company they are looking into. Unfortunately, even though I like looking at reviews, I seldom leave one unless I'm very satisfied with the company or really disappointed. In both cases, I leave my emotions aside and tell things as I experience them. This means that if everything wasn't perfect, I don't ding them for minor stuff. I give people the benefit of the doubt because we all have those days when we aren't at our best. When I read bad reviews about restaurants that I frequent often, I wonder about the person leaving the review. I feel that they are either competitors with malicious intent, someone who didn't try to listen to resolve whatever issues they perceived to be happening, or simply someone who's looking for a reason and is too hard to please in the first place. So with all that out of the way, let me get to the Lim's Star review. I love Chinese food and it's one of the first things I looked for locally when I bought my house 10 years ago. There are several in what I would consider my drivable area. Lim's Star is in my top 5 or higher depending on what dish I'm looking for. 10 years means I've been coming there since before the current owner. Do I miss the dinner rolls? Not really, since I get better quality food and personalization of meals on request. The new owner knows us on sight and remembers what we like to order. He even allows us to modify the ingredients to our liking. He is very friendly and will engage in small talk to get to know his customers better. We eat at or buy takeout from Lim's Star at least once a month, sometimes more. Has everything always been perfect? No, but I really can't recall the last time I was dissatisfied with my order or service. Based on my long review, I'm hoping you can tell I have had many enjoyable meals from and experiences with Lim's Star. Seriously! If you are on the fence or willing to try something new in your area, start with a dish you know to compare. I doubt you will be disappointed in your comparison. Mark J.“

“Stopped in yesterday and had a beer and some lunch. The new owners were friendly and efficient. I will definitely be back.“

“The food at this place is great. I've been here many times and everything has been good. What separates this place is the service! 100% of the reason I stay here is the service from Jill and Cheri at the Ganders restaurant! I come back here nearly every week because of their customer-focused, friendly, fun personalities! Everyone needs more great employees like these two!“

“Just came to say I enjoy the time I spend at the Wintergarden. The Wednesday wings are great and I get them almost EVERY Wednesday, the Sunday half off pizza is also a great deal and quite tasty. The service is usually good, but it depends on who is working. I am usually there during happy hour so my review is based on that. I have three bartenders I particulary like to see, Brei, who unfortunately for me, has branched out to better herself and is not there so often anymore, Alison, who knows my wing order by heart, and Sam who kicks butt and takes great care of me.“

“Have not eaten at Chicken Shack in several years. Acknowledged and welcomed immediately upon entering. Restaurant clean and comfortable. Server Lanisha pleasant and patient. Food made fresh, served hot with generous portions. Delicious spicy mayo chicken sandwich and tasty onion rings. Thank you…“

“What a great discovery. Happened upon this small take away or dine in no frills restaurant. It was hard to decide what to order because it all sounded so good. But he made good recommendations. Food was ready fast and her delivered it to our table. Delicious! Can’t wait to go back and order some other things. Portions very generous. Good people. Good food.“

“awesome food..awesome service“

“The food was absolutely delicious. Our chef, Gregory, cooked us nachos and spaghetti bolognese..which were outstanding. Our bartender, Savannah, couldn't have taken better care of us. Kudos to you both.“

“Thank you to Krystal for the awesome service. Great food and great service, we will be back.“

“This has become my favorite restaurant. The food is outstanding.“

“I got their breakfast burrito & personally that’s one of the best I’ve had anywhere! The salsa they serve on the side is delightful & the server I had I believe her name was Katie, she made my husband & I feel very welcome as it was our first time & we weren’t sure what to get, she didn’t rush us into anything & even recommended a few items that she likes, the breakfast burrito being one of them which I can’t thank her enough for. I also love the look of the place the windows make it feel so open & when the suns out it’s a very pretty little cafe aesthetic to dine at. I didn’t rate 5* because even though the service & food was great their was a lot of commotion in the kitchen & even some yelling which just kind of makes the dining experience a bit awkward, wish they were more professional.“

“My daughter-in-law brought me here for my first with my granddaughters. The whipped feta appetizer was great! Addictively salty, sweet, and spicy with the perfect bread on the side. The kids menu ice cream sundae was the perfect finish!“

“Super loud and echoey, I couldn't even hear the people at my table, but I could hear the guy across the restaurant talking about his wife's bedazzled thong.
The food was ok, I'm not sure why everything was so sweet - I got the Mac and cheese and the bacon was sweet, the BBQ sauce on the meat was sweet, and the coleslaw was sweet. The noodles in the Mac and cheese were overcooked, and there was very little cheese to be found under the top layer.

Service was excellent, birthday cookies were great.“

“I rarely write reviews but I want this restaurant to never go away. Go there, spend your money, you won't be upset. Comfortable restaurant, fantastic staff, and amazing food! We ordered appetizers, lunch, and take out for dinner. We got the Reuben Spring Rolls, Pretzel Sticks, Monte Cristo and the Bourbon Burger with Sweet Potato Fries, all delicious! The Mushroom Soup and Beef Stew are the best I've ever had!“

“I’ve been coming here for years and have visited several locations, but this one is by far my family’s favorite! The generous portions and friendly service keep us coming back. As a vegan, it can be hard to find good breakfast options but this place has plenty, and the food is delicious. Highly recommend!“

“We really enjoyed our dinner at Shakers! Our waitress, Leah, was very friendly, made sure our order was perfect, and kept coming back to check if we needed anything else. Leah was outstanding and made our dining experience excellent! Also, the manager, Crystal, checked on us to make sure we were enjoying our meal and was very friendly and kind! We will definitely be returning to Shakers after having such a great experience.“

“Good Breakfast. Good service and appreciate their efforts“

“My daughter and I went to Detroit Wing Company for the 1st time yesterday and maaan it was sooo good! We had their vegan chicken tenders and some cheese fries, the texture and taste were on point! Clean, quiet, professional service! We’ll be back 10/10 for sure! We’re talkin sooo good! 🔥~ Monique of Talkin Somethin To Def LLC“

“This is the finest restaurant that I have been to in Michigan. The service is excellent, and the food is amazing. The Chef Maddi is extremely talented. Our server has been Ken who is ver professional and friendly.“

“A tiny "Mom and Pop" shop with outstanding seasoning on their shrimp, chicken, and fish. I got lemon pepper seasoning on the side, but after starting to eat my food, I totally forgot to put it on as it was so flavorable without it. A hint of spice on the shrimp and fish which wasn't too hot, but elevated the food to another level. I'm glad I found this spot and am looking forward to my next visit!“

“This place is a MUST to visit!...the food alone is a great reason to make this place a regular because everything is homemade...even the sauce and chips!!!...we usually come every Sunday...but Thursday is ladies night, with great specials...so we have incorporated other days into our busy schedule... because we have nothing but fun...if you're looking for a laid back place, with tons of fun...this is the place...see ya Sunday...✌️“

“Great food and drinks are amazing“

“Love the food & service here“

“Thank you to Krystal for the awesome service. Great food and great service, we will be back.“

“I have lost count on how many times I may have visited such a fine establishment. Great food, excellent service, polite staff, professional atmosphere, perfect seating, kid friendly and wonderful wait staff. Highly recommend for small and large group settings.“

“Been going there for several years. I like the service. No fooling around no loud talking, laughing out loud, just taking care of business.It’s quiet, professional service, everybody working, and most of the time they got my eggs just like I like them. can’t say anything negative about omega, and I always run into Brenda sitting right on the end at the counter. They know who Brenda is, but you guys might not. I’ll give omega 10 stars.“

“the food is always great and I love all the servers. they are so kind and caring. great neighborhood spot“

“Excellent Pizza, we ordered ours well done, being full blooded Italian. Toppings are top natch, high quality - items that you can taste! The Lucy (pizza) has such a unique delicious flavor, the Wolf was superb, as was the pizza margarita. Going back to try the mushroom pizza and a few of their entrees. 😋 Yummy!“

“Concept of the bar was great. Waitresses or lovely. Tom sandovalt want to be bartender complete jackass! Will never come back.“

“Best service we’ve ever had, food was delicious and so fresh. Highly recommend! Ask for Moe when you go, he’s the best! ❤️“

“The food was delicious however… we wanted bread before our meal and we had to pay $5 for a very small loaf of really good bread… ( this should be complimentary). The music was very loud when we arrived but after we asked they turned it down (a very little bit) staff and waiter were very kind and attentive. Atmosphere was very quaint and comfortable. My only complaint is that they do not offer a veterans discount. Just wish you would honor your military families as they fought for the freedom you now have to run that business … won’t return just because of that… too bad … was really close to a perfect experience… hoping to plant a seed..“

“Solid diner for breakfast, lunch and dinner. The service was solid and everyone was really nice. The restaurant itself was well kept and clean. Everything was reasonably priced. The food itself was good and everything tasted good. If in the area I would recommend.“

“Our 1st time there! It was absolutely amazing! The pizza was like the old fashion pizza, we loved it! The service was spectacular!! We will definitely be back!!“

“Quiet and peaceful. profession was on point.“

“Ive been here a few times to delivery throne chairs and marquee numbers for a party there event space is huge and they’ve made some updates to the flooring. The space can hold a lot of people and every party I’ve delivered to here seem to be a good party and have a nice turn out.“

“Everything was so tasty. I will definitely be back. & the give you enough food ! 😋 10/10“

“The waitress went above and beyond to make me something they don't have. Now this is great customer service. This is why this place is ranked great. Food is fast even the buss boy is smiling and not waisted to smile actual happy. I recommend this place to anyone .“

“Great food and nice vibe! We came after the Lathrup Village Community Foundation’s 2025 Summer Concert Series. Awesome time.“

“Just had the best bar burger I’ve had in age’s….. seriously perfect medium burger, full of flavor, not greasy. Will definitely be our choice for a burger in the future ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️“

“Best Nashville Chicken in town!! Joey Eats Fries is a must have!!!“

“Make sure you have your events there as the service is amazing. Love everything about this restaurant.“

“The coffee and the breakfasts are yummy. I'll go with my computer or tablet to get some work done. It's never loud always calm. The waitresses are nice and attentive. I love the breakfasts but the coneys, fries, salads, & corned beef egg rolls are good too.

Parking: There's at least 12 to 18 spaces to park.

Kid-friendliness: I've seen many kids come in about age 4 or 5 on up.“

“We love it here! We make special trips out the way to get the delicious and fresh food. We love the Roma tomato soup, the burger is so tender and amazing flavor from the cheddar cheese and the kalamata olive aioli is so unique and I love it even though I don’t love that version of olives.“

“This place is So good.😌😌“
