You would think it wouldn't be too hard to make this dish as it's relatively simple, but I've been to three or four of the German restaurants in our area and absolutely none of them get it right, or even close to right.

Perhaps someday they'll be able to open a walk up restaurant, but for now I will continue to support the food truck

What wonderful people with a delicious encounter! I'm in love!…read more One of the true highlights of Festing for us this year, everything we shared was spot on authentic. What a treat! We started with pretzels that were devoured literally in seconds. That required more drink. Then we were hungry again. What a cycle. The wife spoke with Jana and Sean(?) and was thoroughly impressed. Their currywurst was wonderful, the kraut, perfect and the whole experience a great joy. We would love to come back and do it again (I'm so stunned, I'm pinching myself). 10/25

When we arrived, we were sat up stairs by choice about 5 minutes of waiting... their hostess stand is kind of blocked by a wall so if they're not at the stand, it's a little weird. Our server was incredibly friendly and answered any questions that we had. It was our first time there and one of the schools were having a formal dance so was tons of kids in suites and homecoming dresses. It was nice to get to see them all below . Our waitress came back a couple of times to see if we were ready, We had probably had been there for about 20 mins and weren't in a hurry. It was a leisure kind of day and there were plenty of available tables so we weren't holding up other diners. The fresh bread and butter and my side salad were honestly the best part of the meal. We did order the candied bacon and although it tasted fine, it was on the softer side, needing another couple of minutes in the oven. We both ended up going with the chicken fajitas. Our waitress ended coming back out to us to check on us and kept saying it shouldn't be much longer. We ended up waiting about 45 minutes to come out. We get that, it happens. Unfortunately though, the chicken was so dry we could barelly eat it. It was so "brown" it almost looked like some of it was breaded and not grilled. So our meal was very lack luster, we didn't take the leftovers home. We each had one taco and was done at that point. Again, the waitress and her service were spot.

I was…read moreexpecting to walk in and get fried or baked lake fish, but to my surprise this place goes for a more tropical theme. Soon as you walk in, you feel like you were transported to a tropical island in the Caribbean. Most of the seafood items consist of lobster, shrimp and mahi. But they also offer burgers, various chicken dishes, and tropical drinks. I was not expecting to like the restaurant this much, but they are a hidden gem. The lobster roll I got came with pineapple coleslaw for $24, which is a pretty good deal for lobster roll. I also asked to have it with a side of chips, which was a good idea as it gave my meal more texture since the lobster rolls are very soft, but delicious nonetheless due to the fact they use Hawaiian rolls for the sandwich bread. I finished my meal with a slice of key lime pie, which was also excellent. The staff here are also very polite and do their best to make sure you are satisfied. 100% worth a visit even if you don't live close to them (no matter what time of year)

After looking at different caterers, we chose Pizza Replicator to cater the party of 85. We were having trouble working with the venue to allow the caterer to find a place to cook the pizzas. Max contacted the venue and worked out all the details. On the day of the event, he and his staff arrived promptly and started with the appetizers which were outstanding. Once he transitioned to pizza, the pizzas were continuously replaced until everyone had eaten. Everyone raved about the food. We couldn't be happier about hiring Max and his team and couldn't recommend him enough.

There are all kinds of pizza places…read more If Ann Arbor has a pizza style, it's thick, cheesy, and really meant for the college crowd. Detroit's pizza was conceived with auto workers in mind. In New York, slices are for folding and eating while on the go, because... well... I guess that's what capitalism does to you. Pizza Replicator is replicating none of these pizzas. Nope. It's just a Star Trek TNG inspired pizza concept where Max Sussman gets to have a little bit of fun with seasonal ingredients, dough, and some portable pizza ovens. Personally, I love to support pizza innovation. Max's pizza is about as good as it can be considering it's cooked up in the back of a coffee shop on any given Sunday. More than anything, I want Max to get a permanent home here in A2 with a legit Neapolitan oven where he can really get some better color on the bottoms of those pies. I've had a few of these so far. Italian sausage with pepperoncini, provolone, and broccoli rabe. Brussels and guanciale with aged gouda, fresh mozzarella, and garlic. Soujouk and Za'atar with onion and green zhug. Asparagus and gruyere with meyer lemon, caramelized onion, and pine nuts. Spanish Chorizo, manchego, roasted peppers. My favorite one to date was the meyer lemon. Dang, that was deliciously unexpected! But those crispy nuggets of guanciale were dynamite too! Ultimately, these are designed to be take out pies, and I'm just not a take out pizza kinda guy. Because I believe pizza is best when it's fresh hot now, I grab my pie, b-line to my parked car, and eat the pizza in the driver's seat like a savage beast. Even when I have shown up early for my scheduled pizza pick up, I have had little luck in getting super hot pies with crisp edges and well colored bottoms. Recently I learned that one can request the pizza "well done" and I am looking forward to giving that a try. But I love the culinary creativity and I am happy to keep trying Max's new pies when my Sunday schedule lines up with available pizza slots. One has to keep an eye on the Pizza Replicator Instagram page and move quickly, because these things sell out. I have gotten over my FOMO, and am happy to simply sample these pizzas when the stars align. Which, you know, is why I'm comfortable to share this with the Yelp Community. Max's efforts are hardly a secret as they were just recently covered in the food press. But yet there is no listing on Yelp?

You know the drill. You're in town for a conference and you want a hip place to hang with friends…read moreand partners, and hope for good food. This checks all the boxes. Eclectic but stylish interior that's easy to settle into. Big cushy booths and large tables for all friends of various sizes. And to top it off, an excellent menu for everybody. The Lobster tempura roll and wagyu beef gyoza were instant hits as well as the fun drink selection. Opt for the mini tomahawks, a.k.a the grilled lamb chops. The presentation of these was amazing as well as the delicately wrapped with care little handles. It's always fun to see who uses a knife and fork versus picking up these little beauties and shoving them into your pie hole. Definitely get the sushi tacos, when they hit the table, they look intimidating, but they're much easier to eat than they look. Service was excellent and attentive. Hope you enjoy.

First impressions weren't great. The restaurant clearly tries to create an upscale atmosphere, but…read moreonce you look closely, a lot of the finishes felt incomplete or like temporary fixes rather than a polished space. It was also very humid and stale inside, there was an old-beer smell, and we were constantly shooing away small fruit flies throughout the meal. The service was also off. When I asked our server what dishes were must-tries or most popular, he seemed surprisingly unfamiliar with the menu and struggled to give recommendations. Our drinks took a very long time despite being ordered well before the food. They didn't arrive until we were already partway through our appetizers, and mine was delayed even further because it had apparently been forgotten. The drinks themselves weren't terrible, but they were very average -- more along the lines of what I'd expect from a chain restaurant than somewhere positioning itself as an upscale dining experience. Ordering was probably the strangest part. Recommendations are completely normal and appreciated, but this felt like a constant sales pitch for upgrades and additional dishes. It made the whole ordering process uncomfortable rather than enjoyable. Unfortunately, the food didn't improve things. We ordered several sushi rolls, crispy rice, a NY strip and fried rice. The sushi tasted like it had been premade and was honestly comparable to grocery-store sushi. The crispy rice had the same issue -- nothing about it tasted particularly fresh. The biggest disappointment was the steak. Our server really sold us on it and described it as being comparable to some of the best steaks in Detroit. What arrived was cold, very fatty, tough and extremely heavily seasoned. It was genuinely one of the worst steaks I've had at a restaurant, especially at this price point. The timing of the meal was also strange, with the fried rice arriving well after the steak. At that point we asked to send the steak back and didn't even want to continue with the rest of the meal. To their credit, the restaurant did remove a few items from our bill, which we appreciated. But we ultimately left and went to another restaurant so we could actually enjoy my wife's birthday dinner. We went in genuinely wanting to like ZUZU, especially after reading the reviews, but between the atmosphere, service, drinks, food quality and timing, we were disappointed in nearly every aspect of the experience. For a restaurant presenting itself at this level and price point, I expected significantly better.

Because it's a pop up restaurant drinks do not come with the meal (they do serve water). The particular location did have an option to purchase separately from the bar.
