“Good atmosphere, great food and awesome bartenders“

“Gator Jakes is one of the best bar/restaurants in the area!!! Awesome food, great specials and delish drinks. The wait staff and bartenders are always so nice and efficient. The Hurricane burger is one of the best burgers I have had. The atmosphere is always fun and there are tons of televisions to watch sports. Stop in there soon!!!!“

“I really enjoy the Mug Pub. Almost all of their dishes are great, but since they reopened after the fire, the portion sizes have noticeably shrunk. It could be a combination of factors like COVID and inflation, but it’s definitely something to note. They have a new dish called the hamburger steak, which is excellent—just watch out for the onions! I’m also a big fan of their wings. The drinks and atmosphere are very nice, and they have a lovely outdoor patio. It’s a great neighborhood bar with a decent menu, and the drinks are solid as well. The staff has always been nice and pleasant. There are tons of TVs for watching games, etc. For what it is, the food is generally above average, though a bit pricey for what you get. That said, I’d still recommend it.“

“Great food and atmosphere!“

“I went to Kruse’s Paint Creek Restaurant for the first time today. I had excellent service from LeAnn M. who went out of her way to accommodate my garlic allergy. The food and and service were excellent. Leann is a gem. She is professional, kind, and knowledgeable!“

“Consistently great service and outstanding quality of food. Steaks, seafood, prime rib, pasta and wonderful chicken dishes. Salads made table side. Great clam chowders and French onion soup. Great sandwiches if you’re not into a full meal. You have to try their French baked potato- delicious! Full bar. A true gem in the Rochester and Rochester Hills communities.“

“Fantastic burger and friendly bartender“

“Excellent food and bar staff are awesome! Makes you feel at home.“

“🌴🍹 Great Vibes, Delicious Food, and Fun Atmosphere! 🌴🍹 I just had a fantastic time at Bora Bora Brunch! The food? Delicious. The service? Top-notch and so welcoming. The atmosphere? It's a little cozy, but that "beach" vibe makes it a hidden gem! 🏖️ The bar is cute, vibrant, and energetic—perfect for sipping a cocktail and soaking in the fun, tropical feel. This is it if you're looking for a spot that checks all the boxes for great food, friendly service, and good vibes. 🥂🍴 I highly recommend stopping by for a little slice of paradise! 🌺“

“How come nobody is mentioning the great pizza?!!!!“

“I love Malones. They have a wonderful staff and great food. Just had a retirement party. They were so accommodating making sure everyone was happy with their meal and ensuring drinks were refreshed. Thank you so much. Everyone had a wonderful time.“

“We love eating at Mia’s Tasty BAR & GRILL.“

“Great food , large portions, been there 1/2 dozen times , top notch!!“

“The food is really good and the server we got was very attentive. Though when walking in several skimpy dressed hostesses and wait staff walked by us and didn't welcome us or even smile and say hello, we'll be right with you, etc.
I felt the atmosphere was nice but most of their staff seemed to be like I said before very skimpy dressed woman who didn't seem to want to be bothered. Maybe that's the atmosphere they are going for? I'm just glad we didn't get one of them as our server.“

“from the time we walked in we were greeted with smiles and polite staff. we loved our server and bar tender Kara! excellent service and staff. the pizza was awesome as expected and the salad was our favorite more than other place because it had more ingredients. we will definitely be back. Mike and Sharon Pappas from st clair Mi.“

“Great Burger and great Bloody Mary“

“Great food. Nice atmosphere. Nice servers. The owner is awesome and doesn't put up with people who want to start drama. 5 stars!!!!“

“Took our first trip to this place just last night. Has a little bit of everything for those not looking to stay seated during dinner. Food took forever though and was decent. Waitress was a little lost with constantly asking our table of 6 what they ordered and whose drink went with whose order. Other than that the atmosphere was pretty cool. We played some cornhole, which was decently priced by the hour ($10). Plus they had classic arcade games, free to play like Ms Pac Man, Galaga, Frogger, and Donkey Kong along with 90’s classics like Mortal Kombat, NFL Blitz and House of the Dead. Plus over a dozen pinballs. Arcade area was a sight to see since most places now use carnival or ticket games. They also had a poker room which was full. Did not see any pool tables, darts or disc golf so not sure if those get removed during poker night. I’d consider coming back but not during their busier times. It was more than half capacity but id imagine an even further delay on food or your wait staff being really lost handling more than 20 orders at multiple tables. Either way I’d recommend it as long as you aren’t really hungry going in or don’t like huge crowds.“

“I like going here lots of TV's.. i an hooked on their Bloody Mary's. it's hard for me to find bloody mary mix i like.. most, I do not like. Been there 3x in the last 10 days. All the bar food was exactly what I think bar food should be. A GREAT share plate it's the Super Nachos.“

“Love it!!! The atmosphere is amazing for the mature crowds. I go weekly and highly recommend it!!“

“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.“

“Game Day at CJ Mahoney's
With no way to catch the big game at home, CJ Mahoney's was the perfect destination. Nestled in a cozy booth, we had our own personal TV, the perfect setup for an immersive viewing experience.

We kicked off the game with a classic Supreme Pizza, a cheesy, saucy delight topped with a colorful array of ingredients. While she sipped on a couple of refreshing 7 and 7's, I opted for a crisp Diet Coke. Later, we indulged in a flavorful cheese Quesadilla, a cheesy, crispy treat that hit the spot.

Despite the packed house, the staff handled the crowd with impressive efficiency. They were friendly, attentive, and kept our drinks flowing.

CJ Mahoney's has become our go-to spot for game day. The combination of great food, friendly service, and a lively atmosphere makes it a winner in our book.“

“Just left and wanted to write a review ASAP! Took my guy here for his birthday. We went to the bingo brunch. Even though there weren’t many people there at 10 am the bingo host played the game and awesome music in between each number being called. We each won bingo and got some fun prizes - shirts and games. The atmosphere is cozy and perfect for playing games. The hostess was very welcoming. Our server was sweet and attentive and the food and drink were fantastic! What a gem! Can’t wait to come back!“

“Delicious food and excellent selection of Michigan draft beers. Great atmosphere as well.“

“New owners have added arcade machines, a music box linked to Spotify, and now have karaoke on Saturday nights after 8PM.

Tim makes the best burger in Mt. Clemens! Joanie, Jennifer, and the staff are always a delight and make great recommendations if your looking for something new to try. Great service, quality selections, a perfect spot to meet with friends and have a few drinks.“

“Dude. We went here last night…AMAZING. Food was great. Drinks were great. Music was A VIBE. I feel bad I don’t remember the server’s name who was outside on the patio, but genuinely some of the best service I’ve ever had, and I worked in the industry for 10+ years. He made great recommendations, was running his butt off, and just overall did a great job. You guys keep doing exactly what you’re doing. We’ll definitely be back!!“

“The food here is fabulous. ribs are fall off the bone and no fat. Seasoned fries are super yummy. There special stuffed cabbage and boiled potatoes melt in your mouth. Excellent food with great service. They love all the locals.“

Editing to add, I hosted my hubby's 50th here last night, it was such a hit! Everyone was so accommodating and the staff is the best in town! Thanks J's for making his birthday party perfect with warm pies and cold beers! Stella took excellent care of our entire party! The best! ?“

“The perfect 30 years old and up vibe, The Our Bar rice is so good 😊 I order two of them just for me. The staff is very professional the owners are always there to make sure you and your people are satisfied with the experience. The Dj is live and drinks are on point. When I say it’s a VIBE it’s a yes for me.“

“Nice time Saturday night. First timers. Good band, service, burgers and cold beers. We’ll be back!!“

“I love there appetizers. French dip delicious.“

“Went 1st time tonight with friends and the atmosphere was fun and the food was delicious. Never tried Bourbon before but after reading their list I chose a coffee and bourbon cream which was so good! Definitely check out this local jem!“

“I took my two son’s here today. My youngest has autism and others’ kindly describe him as “a handful.” Accurate. The server comes over and asks for our drinks. She brings them back and my son just throws the cup across the aisle. And then laughs. Autism is super fun like that. Lauren (the server) was super nice about the mess. Another female server cleaned up the milk. They were both very understanding and it helped so much - probably more than they realize! I tipped them both but I hope a manager sees this, because, they are awesome employees!! You’re lucky to have them!“
