“It's the go to spot (in the area) for fried foods! My go to order is the chicken strip combo meal. They serve up a nice generous portion of chicken strips with the optional lemon pepper seasoning added on at the end which is awesomely delicious. The combo meal comes with bread and a pop......I always get an order of friend corn to go with it as well----its the absolute chronic.The jalapeno poppers are on point too.Legend has it you can use a bridge card here......you buy they fry.?“

“OK the chicken let’s talk about the chicken there’s six different krispy chicken locations within a 10 mile radius maybe more., idk but that doesn’t matter because I won’t eat anyone else’s ? but here at this location. It is so good!!Cleanliness is top notch.Customer service is top-notch, especially Frank. I love him, oh and I also love the female cashier , she’s quick , down to earth and she knows the neighborhood. Is her name tonya?So listen I went to the other krispy chicken locations and it’s funny but they all have a funny smell soon as you walk through the door, like a smelly 90° abandoned bodega … what is it ???? ??‍♀️the customer service is terrible,… they don’t even speak to you and if they do, you can’t decipher what they’re even saying because they don’t even try..idk guys I don’t like it remember it doesn’t cost to be kind but yeah, don’t go to those smelly, “bodegas”,, the best fried chicken and all of our needs and daily convenience store items are here at Kennett express . ?“

“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 was at a work event and could walk here. I am very happy with this place. $5.99 mojitos, what a deal. I got the chicken and steak fajitas. The meat was not as big as I would like however, everything still tasted fantastic in the service was great. Stop in.“

“I was flying solo this weekend and wanted a nice dinner and experience! Kruse's Deer Lake Inn did not disappoint. I chose from the Flavors of Fall on the menu (pick two) 😋 The stuffed shrimp was prepared perfectly (tender), and the baked shrimp and scallops were delicious. The pilaf pleasantly surprised me and was very good (pilaf is something I would have never ordered but it was the side for the pick two). I also had a Martha's Vineyard salad add tomatoes (not pictured)! I look forward to stopping in again soon!“

“Finally a good Chinese restaurant in Royal Oak! Food was AMAZING, short wait time, lady at the cash register was super sweet. Would definitely recommend!“

“We had a great first experience at Live Bait / Goomah—two restaurants in one, with the option to order from both menus. Live Bait focuses on seafood, while Goomah offers Italian fare, which makes for a fun and flexible dining experience.

We started with East Coast oysters, which were super fresh and clean. For mains, we ordered the lobster roll and the snapper—both from the Live Bait menu. The snapper was likely cooked just as intended (in a 500° oven), but the texture wasn’t quite what we personally prefer. The chef came out to check in, was extremely friendly, and offered to swap it for the grouper with caper sauce (also from Live Bait), which was incredible—we’d absolutely order that again. The lobster roll was also excellent.

Our server Lexi was fantastic—she was bartending and covering our section solo, and still gave amazing service. Drinks were great, and everything felt relaxed but professional.

Highly recommend this spot for fresh seafood, attentive service, and a unique dual-menu concept. We’ll definitely be back!“

“I’ve never had a bad meal at any one of their many restaurants. We celebrated my daughter and her graduation this evening with dinner at the Deer Lake Inn. Everything we had was great and the server we had was superb, great food and service. The entire menu is good, you can’t go wrong.“

“Amazing food!! Great atmosphere!“

“Was not disappointed. Food was good.“

“Our anniversary...great staff...the hostess was more than accommdating to move our table from middle to room to side so I wouldn't panic..thank you! Our server Gera(sorry dont know spelling) was so attentive to detail and very friendly...thanks for everything“

“I honestly can't say enough good things about this place. You don't find this quality of food often and the staff is lovely and accomodating. Also, the $10 lunch specials are unbeatable. Every dish I have tried is delicious. The hibachi chicken with garlic butter is a must try! & The garlic pita bread is to die for!“

“Visited this restaurant for our engagement celebration. Staff were extremely kind and attentive, they went above and beyond to make our visit memorable. The food and drinks were VERY good. I would recommend dining here and will definitely be coming back soon!“

“Its a small establishment but personally I think it's best Blk. owned/operated Soul food restaurant in town. Catering ? Shaun ( the owner ) will hook you up no matter the occasion. Plus Charlie S&S has been around for years so that should tell you something!!!“

“Darrell G. was our waiter and he was excellent catering to all of our needs. He split fish and steak meals so my friend and I could have a little if both. We were celebrating birthdays so our day was made a little more special with the attention to detail!“

“Awesome food customer service was great“

“Had a wonderful time(as always) at Seasons52 last night. Sam was our server and was fun, well versed in the menu and efficient. We dine here often as great food and service is reliable. We feel it's a good value as well, sides are included with the entrees (ex: I had the surf and turf special that had mashed potatoes and broccolini), you don't have to order ala carte.“

“Very good food we enjoy every time we come here!“

“Excellent restaurant and service. My waiter was exceptional! He was so professional, funny, and caring. I appreciated the top notch service. I felt welcomed and comfortable. One of the best upscale restaurants in Michigan. I truly had a memorable time. Thank you I will be back very very soon.“

“Best chicken strips I ever had moist 1st time there will be back highly recommend“

“Good food & Great service“

“Awesome food and great service!“

“We had a large group of ladies come in for dinner. It took us about an hour to get seated on a Saturday since they dont take reservations. We had a few bumps in the night but Brandon took great care of us. I believe he was the manager. Our appetizers were great (calamari and crab cake). The bread (or donut as we called it) was delicious!! Our entrees however were less than desirable. Pictured is my crab cake entree with a side of smoked Gouda Mac & Cheese. The mac was terrible (unseasoned and the noodles were hard) 😢 I left the full side almost completely untouched on my plate. My friend's broccoli had a hair in it, which they promptly remade. Someone else's steak tasted like cinnamon as she described it and was tough for the cut of steak. The drinks were 10/10 (shout-out to the bartender). I had a lemon drop mojito *chef's kiss* And the creme brulee was delicious as well. Overall, I would return but simply for drinks and apps!“

“Some middle aged man pushed me into a TV there. very great service.. the man was rather hot.“

“Great place to chill and enjoy a good time with friends.“

“Hazel’s is one of those no-brainer places you hit with friends or family when you’re looking for something casual. Some dishes are better than others but overall the seafood is fresh and tasty. The servers have all been very tentative and nice over the years which makes for a positive experience. This is definitely a place I will continue to patron and recommend.“

“Happy Hour !! Good and plentiful @ $7“

“Delicious and flavorful food. Friendly staff. Mexican style/street tacos flare. Positive energy vibe, plenty of seating available. I had the California burrito and asked to add cilantro and had no issues, in fact the person taking the order loaded me up with additional toppings and sauces that the burrito was filling enough for 2 meals. Also had the trio sampler (guacamole, cheese, salsa) with chips. Very filling. Great flavor profile. Will definitely be adding this to my list to return again.“

“The Mexican food in Waterford period!!“

“Had calamari which was like eating rubber. Pasta was very good although the waitress didn't know if the pasta was made in-house. Pizza was the star. It's the best around this area. Service was slow.“
