50 Best Bar & Grill near Royal Oak

“Food is good. Don't get a pop though. They charged $5 for a full glass of ice with a splash of Coke. Will never order a pop from there again. She never came to ask about refill either. Ridiculous!“

“Patti the cook! OMG! Saturday night, all by herself, no help what so ever! Our waitress said she COULD be behind because she’s on her own so our may take a little longer, we said no problem. That was not the case , we had our food in like 10 minutes! I sat at the bar and watched her do the job of about 3-4 people the rest of the night! She’s amazing! This woman deserves a raise for sure !“

“This place is crazy good.
I got the hangover burger and some cheese sauce for my fries (I recommend dunking ur burger in it too omghhh).
The bacon has a super smokey flavor, the egg was perfectly runny, hash brown didn't get soggy, patties were cooked nice. I love the fries too, has a little sugar and balances out the salty.
I went home and slept for 3 hours so if you have plans after I wouldn't recommend it 😂.
Bloody Mary was good too, nice n peppery
10/10 will be back“

“Great restaurant for a birthday gathering! Our great server (sorry I forgot her name) was so very attentive to us! She checked on us often and never kept us waiting for anything! They had live music. The food was great! The drinks were great! The service was great! 5Apr25“

“Good place for a quick bite & drinks prior to heading to the comedy club. The food & drinks were good- the service was good for the most part. We paid full price for 7 drinks but when we realized there was a happy hour menu & wanted to try a drink off of it- our waitress mentioned it was 6:00 & too late. We said it’s 5:55. She replied we go by bar time. What? She ended up putting it in but we found it odd after spending $150 in food & drinks up to that point she’d give us grief about getting $4 off a happy hour drink we wanted to try. We’d go back but for sure ask about specials prior to ordering as they weren’t mentioned.“

“We happened across Bar Louie while strolling through the streets of Royal Oak and decided to stop for lunch. We both ordered the toasted bacon, tomato and cheese sandwich with a soup dipper, and it was absolutely delicious. Such a simple meal, but it was the perfect lunch!

A side note, I’m visiting from Australia, and I still can’t get used to how enormous the drinks are in America. Every time I order one, I’m amazed by the size!

What really made the experience stand out was the service. The lady looking after our table was lovely, friendly, and checked in to make sure we were happy and had everything we needed. Great food, huge drinks, and warm hospitality made for a really enjoyable experience. We’d happily come back!“

“Kozy Lounge has a relaxed atmosphere, and serves the best burger in town! And Jacob is a delight behind the bar!“

“Let me just say I didn't actually go in but I placed a special order over the phone. I spoke with Adrienne and it was a great experience. She did a wonderful job, I will absolutely be going in person now.“

“Yearly visit with my kids Birthday“

“My girlfriend and meself stopped in randomly after the Eastern Market and had one of the best meals and experience we’ve had while visiting Detroit. The Tokyo muscles were the best muscles I’ve ever had. We had a classic Bloody Mary and their hot sauce really brought some heat! We got the Carmel cookie coffee as well and that was swell as well. The environment and staff especially made the experience even better. We had Rhonda as a server and she was very pleasant and helped give us recommendations that turned out to be very tasty. Overall we were glad we chose to eat at Vivio’s and will definitely be back next time we wander to Detroit.“

“Friendly atmosphere, delicious food, and servers were excellent. Their cookies are worth the wait; hot and fresh from the oven! We enjoyed it so much, we went twice while we were in town for vacation.“

“A special day. A special night. Couldn't be better. Arranged by our son and daughter. The waiter did everything, except eat our food. The wines were a delight and the steak and salmon were prepared with artistry. He guided us with each entre and the salad was shared by us with dressing aside. Wine, was by the glass and was both red and white and light, semidry and elegant. Our perfect dinner ended the perfect evening. Thank you 220 Merrill for a wonderful 50th.“

“We hosted my toddlers birthday party here last month. We had an excellent experience. The food was ready right on time and delicious. We had multiple servers who were so attentive and kind. I don’t think anyone had an empty glass at any point. It was a Saturday evening with a packed bar and we couldn’t even tell in the side room. We will absolutely host another event there in the future!“

“The names of the staff that I can remember our Tayler, Courtney what’s the guys name Trevor, Trevor, Eric Gary, Harry, Harry, the girl who had the blue snowman on her black shirt under it I was here at the bar don’t remember she’s been here a couple nights in a row though, since I met you in the past couple weeks yeah she’s nice I just want to thank everyone for welcoming me here at Robusto‘s because everyone is nice, and they help me find a cigar that is perfect for completely“

“Unexpected excellence! Came in at 4pm on Friday, our efficient and friendly waiter Andy was taking care of at least 10 other tables-but made each customer feel well taken care of. The clam chowder soup was excellent, like from a fine seafood restaurant! The Cobb salad was presented beautifully, and I took about half of it home! We live 1 hour away-but will make plans to return!“

“This is always our go to when it comes to going out with our 2 year old. All the staff and so friendly and so are the patrons too.“

“Where do I even begin? The second we walked in the door, everyone was so wonderful! We took our twins out to celebrate their second birthday! Our waiter Nicholas was so kind and patient! He made sure our babies food was put in quickly and came out hot and fresh. (They were getting hangry. haha) Nicholas gave us some recommendations and they did not disappoint! 👏🏽 Everything we got was fresh, hot, and delicious, from the appetizer, to our meals, to the twins' meals. Even my mocktail was spot on! Their manager, Amanda, was who delivered our food. She was so sweet and cheerful!! She came back over later on to check on us and wish our babies a happy birthday! The entire restaurant was clean and well maintained. You can truly tell the staff enjoy their jobs. Nicholas and Amanda made sure we had a great first experience. My hubby and I have decided to come back, minus babies, and have a date night so we can further enjoy the extensive, and yummy looking, menu. 10/10 highly recommend.“

“As Toby Keith would say, “I love this bar”! I just found my new home away from home. So cute inside. TV’s, pool, darts…etc. Amazing food. Which they are going to expand their menu. Keno is coming soon. ? They have fish for Fridays. I’m hooked. ? I had the garden fresh pizza and it was fabulous. My girlfriend had the Guido burger and she said it was heaven. Met George, one of the owners and cooks, very friendly! Looking forward to my next visit here.“

“The most classic sports bar a sports bar can get. Some of the best pizza in town, some of the best wings in town, in the atmosphere is a classic sports bar. They even got the Jumbotron as a queer guy who likes sports And good food, This place is awesome.“

“Always good food and friendly staff“

“Over 25 crowd (most patrons were 40s +). There is a $15 minimum to use a card so if you're just having 1 drink, bring cash. No cover. Pool tables and bar. I was told they no longer sell food at this Bar & Grill but I didn't confirm if the kitchen closes very early, is temporarily closed or closed indefinitely. There is outdoor space and also a food truck up the alley behind the businesses on Grand River. The staff was friendly and there was plenty of seating. It's not huge but there was a perfect number of people to enjoy yourself and not be crowded with people breathing COVID unknowingly. Old school music with some hustle tracks thrown in. I would go back.“

“Karaoke, The food by Chief Dee“

“Fun time meeting people. Great food and drinks.“

“Had an incredible dinner and great drinks tonight here. The clam chowder was absolutely amazing you could taste the freshness. We had burgers that were amazing the comes from an amazing local company the owner was telling us about. Chicken strips are amazing they were fresh not frozen and the bang bang shrimp were killer. Really enjoyed the owners story and passion for the place he was super hands on with everything. Everything that hit the table was very very impressive definitely a must try! Absolutely going back.“

“Having a Ball 😁 My type of Vibe!!“

“This place is always a vibe! Great music, great drinks, & very affordable. The bartenders Domo, Toi & Shy are super cool they always make sure you have a good time there.“

“Love, love, love it!“

“My friends and I went to this place because it was recommended by a co-worker and she also works there. So it was motown Monday so we all got some hamburgers . I added some mozzarella sticks and my other friend got jalapeno popper soup. I got to say the burgers were very mid unfortunately, they needed some seasoning, salt or pepper but nothing was there. But the appetizers were the standout, the mozzarella sticks were good and seasoned and the soup was good and flavorful. Our server Rachel was very attentive and a standout for the trip to this bar/restaurant. In all fairness she did recommend this.“

“Great place to wind down at the end of a long day. The wait staff is top notch!“

“looking to have a birthday party on March 16“

“Love the new sand courts and bar.“

“It's an excellent atmosphere and the drinks and music are the best, as well as the staff..“

“I could eat at celebrities bar and grill everyday! The lamb chops are great with the celebity sauce a must try you won't be disappointed. I normally get turkey chops with a side of mac n cheese and a side of yams and they never disappoint. They know what they're doing with the food so give them a try if you never had it you'll be glad you did. Only thing I wish they would change is taking orders over the phone again because it can be a nice little wait sometimes to get your food after you order in person depending on how busy they are.“

“Great food and drinks‼️‼️🥃🍸🌮🧀🍔“

“Yes very fun atmosphere nice bar nice wings“

“I went there on a random week day a couple of weeks ago to watch my uncle shoot pool & actually enjoyed. The food was good & fresh. My drinks were good as well! Just no crowd probably because it was a week day. I haven't been there in years. Older crowd which I like. Bathroom needs updating & parking lot. Will go back!“
