“everything was amazing from the cocktails to the bugers, fries and Korean chicken sandwich!”
“We just had dinner here before going across the street to a concert. The food was excellent! It came out quickly and our server, Kyra, was so friendly, supper attentive and very welcoming! We will be back!!”
“We are regulars at Stuffed Bun and can’t imagine not spending our Sunday morning with them. The food is always excellent and the staff make us feel like family. The food is delicious and portions are generous. A few of our favorites are the country omelette, breakfast burrito, cinnamon pancakes and chicken Greek salad. 5 stars ⭐️”
“I have been going there since before I could walk. This is the gold standard for coneys as far as I'm concerned. I am sad that you can't dine in these days, but I'm happy to get it to go. Speaking of, the coneys travel very well. Wrapped in wax paper! So easy to reheat if you've got a long way to go. Family owned, family visited. Three generations of my family have gone there, should I have a little one we'll make it four!
Best coney in the state!”

“If you show up to buy your ticket in person they will rip you off. If a show is $20 online with an $8 fee why would you charge me $32 at the door? Your formula doesn’t make sense. Charge the ticket price at the door and bypass the online fee structure? No charge more than the ticket with fees at the door? Yes. Its a practice that I hate”
“Our waitress was very helpful she brought over out breakfast of Chorizo con Juevos (awesome)and Eggs not your typical greasy chorizo it was the most flavorful and no grease residue or aftertaste that usually stays with you all day. Eggs Rachancheros / green sauce that were cooked perfect. As for the atmosphere it's a Bar , Mexican rough apparently the fights are mostly in the men's bathroom.. beat up..🤠 I will return for a different dish to try out next time. Enjoy!”
“If you're looking for great Mexican food in the Pontiac area, El Toro Mexican Restaurant is absolutely worth a visit. The food is consistently fresh, flavorful, and served in generous portions that might have you questioning whether you accidentally ordered for your entire family. Whether you're craving sizzling fajitas, tacos, enchiladas, or a basket of chips that mysteriously keeps disappearing, El Toro delivers a delicious meal at a great value. Just be warned: you may walk in planning to take leftovers home, but your appetite may have other plans!”

They always make us feel welcome, This is definitely a place we’ll continue coming back to and recommend to others!”
“I'm from upstate NY and was in the area for work training, looking for a good lunch spot. Within 2 steps in the front door, I knew I was in the right place. It was very clear that this is where the neighborhood locals eat. My coworker and I were quickly greeted by one of their great employees and our order was taken at lightning ⚡ speed. I've been here now on 4 different occasions with months in between and every time, I swear it's the best damn bacon cheeseburger I've ever had every single time. Not to mention the addictive and delicious mountain of fries served with it. I wouldn't change a thing about this place, and I make sure to stop if I'm ever in the area!
Sidenote - I won't even tell anybody at my training the name of it or where it is because I don't want my favorite lunch spot to get too blown up. IYKYK??”

“Had a really nice experience at ZARA SHAWARMA GRILL the owner was very kind and welcoming and his behavior was genuinely appreciated.The food was delicious, and the quantity was generous as well overall great service and a great experience DEFINITELY RECOMMEND!❤”
“I accidentally stumbled on Ray's and tried the #3 Ray's special. I was very pleased with the portions and the price. The fish was well cooked and seasoned, the chicken was great with nice sized tasty shrimp. Everything was clean and the cashier was nice. I've been searching for a good place like this to eat at and I am glad that I found Ray's and I will be back.”
“This restaurant is run by an old Chinese couple.
The large quantity of food is very good for the price.
They only accept cash.
It’s kind of hidden away so you need to be looking for it to find it.
No dining inside (only a few chairs, no tables). Very fast to cook food, so order, take it and go.”
“Came here for a date night and it absolutely delivered. The atmosphere is lovely — quiet enough to actually talk, lively enough to feel like a proper occasion. We were seated promptly at a nice table and looked after by a server who was warm, witty, and clearly knew her stuff. The food was excellent across both courses, with portions that meant we didn't have to ration ourselves. We shared a dessert at the end because we couldn't resist. Bill was fair for the quality of the whole experience. Earned myself some serious points with this one. Already booking it again for our anniversary.”
“The food is always so good, especially on day shift. I love love the grilled chicken pitas and breakfast sandwiches. Every time I pick up my order they serves are so professional and nice even when they are busy. I all always appreciate their good service and the food is so worth it”

“Lovely little place to eat!
The staff was very kind, the food was super yummy! They have an espresso bar which is rare around this area and the espresso was perfect. You could tell the omelettes were homemade and they used real butter on the toast. This place deserves more business because they have very good food here.”
“Me and my husband been going to this truck for a little over a year and all I can say is really love the food here!! There are only one thing I wish they would change… The girls that work there are always so nice and polite when we go they always make us feel welcomed and for sure listened to, but the little boy on the other hand he is really something else I believe he is the owners son he can be rude and sometimes has an attitude. Also we do notice that when we order with him it always a bit more $$ than usual. Not sure why but we trying going when we see that one of the girls are there. But other than that no problems at all love and really recommend this place!!! 😉”
“I'm on a fixed income, so "fast food" is only an occasional treat for me. I found out about Shawarma Spot through a friend, and it has become my favorite little take-out restaurant. Their portions are quite generous, and you have several options for sauces and toppings. I order the Beef Shawarma, and at $8, I get two delicious meals for the price of one! (Admittedly, as a Senior, I have a small appetite.) Staff is always friendly, and they even put my "sauce on the side", so it still tastes fresh for my leftovers. I've frequently seen work crews there ordering Shawarma's multiple chicken wing deals. Give them a try!”
“When I was little I used to go in here with my papaw gene ball we live on cloverlawn rd he used to order me Shirley Temples and sit there and pretend I was a big girl having a drink 🍸 its been many many years since been here still looks the same to me the last I was there was back in 1986 they were good people and still are from what I hear I have yet to return there and I shall before I die just to see if they still serve that wonderful Shirley temple”
“This bar has no food.. You are however welcome to bring in any outside food or have it delivered..
For the people who don't understand- ordering a water and not paying for it doesn't make you a customer-It's not illegal to kick out somebody who is loitering.
This bar lets in plenty of people who need to warm up or use the bathroom. They're real easy to deal with as long as everybody is respectful of one another.
Ordering a water and taking up a seat in a bar that only makes money off of selling drinks and then wondering why you got asked to leave isnt ridiculous But maybe it's why you don't own a business yourself. 🧘♀️
Jukebox is usually going and the drinks are cheap cheap.
Monday through Sunday, Noon until 2:00 a.m.
Pretty simple hours.”

“My Hubby had some at a work party once and brought home some extra. It was Awesome! Not too close to home but it the go to for work parties now and I have him pick some up whenever he can.DEFINITELY RECOMMEND!y'all remember there's a lot of fast food franchises in gas stations!None of them taste as good a Jim's Krispy Chicken though ?”
“This place is fire I have no clue who made, this chicken but they know what there doing the last time I had this chicken it was juicy and bursted with flavor. The lemon pepper powder on the fries and chicken gives it a nice kick the ranch they can either provide you with or you ask for it gose bomb with this chicken I'd recommend this place 100% Goodluck. since this will knock you out with flavor!”
“I grow up here and it's the only place I go to for fish and chicken. They have really great food and prices aren't bad. Yes I do recommend the place to be more open minded when it comes to the LGBTQIA community. Especially because I have to defend my husband and the owner assumed he was a female and he's not.”
“We stopped for the first time after church to see why it was called Manhattan FISH and chicken. I remember having fried fish in New York and the memory lingers. My husband is from Louisiana and so I ordered both the cod and the catfish. Both delicious and my husband said it was the best he had tasted in a long time. Macaroni and cheese and the coleslaw were a nice addition to our Sunday dinner. We were wished a pleasant day and they said "see you next time" .... there will definitely be a next time.”
“This is that hole-in-the-wall Chinese spot your grandpa used to rave about and it still is. Been here since the early 90s for a reason! The sear and smokiness on the fried rice I got was to perfection and it was the old g-ma that cooked it, very legit American Chinese cuisine”
“I Got up to the window in the drive through and I wanted to add a sandwich to my order and the manager told me I needed to go back around and get in line again even though there was nobody behind me in line. The cashier felt very uncomfortable having to tell me tha what her manager said. In any other fast food drive through?I have never been told I have to go back around.”
“I was there recently and the lady on schedule was sooo amazing I truly enjoyed being a customer that day she was so lovely and welcoming very hospitable and pleasant I believe her name was JoAnn but I’ll never forget how sweet she was and she truly brightened my day ✨✨✨✨”
“Sharice is probably one of the best servers ive delt with. She was so friendly, great conversation. All around good experiences. Played pool and there were some other guys who were adding i. 3rd party commentary and it was great. Loved this place, Definitely would come back again!”

“Probably not da best photo but thanks to the young lady who made this chicken nachos she kno what she was doin, chicken grilled right cheesy like it should be definitely was on point i put a dent in them nachos”
“It's a food truck in a parking lot near Green Tavern beer garden an a Save a Lot. Good fresh food at a fair price. If I'm this way again it's on. If you find yourself that way check them out.”

“My first time coming here in a long time and I decided to go to the drive-thru because I wanted to get a chocolate milkshake. But I was informed that they only had Carmel. Well when I went up to the drive-thru they couldn't find my order in the computer so the employee told the manager and the manager ended up giving me the shake on the house. Not only was I pleasantly surprised I didn't expect that but I ended up coming in the following couple days later and bought a burger and a shake. They made me a fan just by that simple polite gesture. Thanks guys.”

“Five stars for Tim Hortons and especially Manager Shannon! Shannon consistently goes above and beyond to take care of me and makes my morning stops feel special. I regularly pick up morning snacks and treats for my clients, and she always makes sure everything is fresh, organized, and ready to go.
Her friendly attitude, attention to detail, and outstanding customer service are exactly what keep me coming back. It’s rare to find someone who remembers their customers and genuinely cares about making each visit a great experience. Shannon is a tremendous asset to Tim Hortons and deserves recognition for the exceptional way she takes care of her customers.
Thank you, Shannon, for making my mornings—and my clients’ mornings—a little sweeter!”
“Humberto and his family are amazing. The food is DELICIOUS!! HIGHLY RECOMMEND”
