    We expected food trucks, but I think because it's late in the season (i.e. normally cold), food was served from the indoor kitchen. But we weren't disappointed! We sat outside on the patio, because it was a balmy fall night, and we thoroughly enjoyed the setting while chowing down on some delicious food! Between us, we got three different types of sliders, garlic Romano fries, Cajun-seasoned soft pretzels, jerk chicken tacos, and sweet potato black bean tacos. Yum, yum, yum! Hubby also ordered a drink - a tequila sunrise - and it was well made. For the three of us, with drinks, the total was $50ish plus tip. I feel like that's a pretty good deal. I could see this being an absolute riot in the warmer months. We shall return.

    Detroit Fleat is a great place! They haves standard house menu with sliders, tacos, salads, loaded fries, etc., as well as a rotating schedule of local food trucks. They also have a full bar with seasonal specials. My favorite thing on the menu is from the dessert section ... cinnamon sugar pretzels. They come warm, coated in cinnamon sugar, and served with a thick maple cream sauce. Sooo good. They have plenty of indoor and outdoor seating, so whether you're into cozy indoor hangs or playing some yard games on the patio, you'll find a place here.

    Tacos and nachos

    Pretty solid spot for extensive drink offerings and sold good eats. I've gone past this place a lot, and there are rarely any people here at night. I think they get a lot of the lunch crowd when the food trucks are in the parking lot. Beers were good but a couple bucks more than some of the other places nearby. Ordered nachos with chicken - everything on it was great but the chicken (tad dry). Would have preferred it to be served on a bigger platter than in a cardboard tray. Fish tacos were good. Would come back for quick eats.

    Very unique way of doing business. You can scan the code and order right from your phone. It will allow you to run a tab. You can keep adding to it and cash out your order only, if you're with a group or pay the bill on full. If technology isn't your thing, you can place your order the old fashion way. It was something that I couldn't get with here. We were brought out waters, no straw. I asked for one but, it never came. The staff just wasn't welcoming like I'm used to people in the service industry being. Spent close to $60 for 4 tacos, one burger with fries and loaded bbq chicken fries. I came, I saw, I ate.

    Best Happy Hour. Delicious margaritas!!! Enjoyed the open patio, it was a great summer afternoon.

    We had other places to venture to so we only stopped in for a quick snack and a couple drinks. I'm glad we did. Ashley was so kind and helpful with menu suggestions. We chose the pretzels with beer cheese. Delicious choice it was indeed. I can't wait to go back

    So much potential. But so much room for improvement. The biggest issue with Detroit Fleat is that you have no idea what's happening when you get there. The hostess situation was a real problem. We put our name on a list and were told it was a 45 minute to an hour wait for a table. We didn't know if we could get in line in any of the food trucks prior to that or even just stand around and eat and we could not get answers. We really weren't sure what we were supposed to do with ourselves so we ended up going for a walk in the area. When we got back we wait waited a little bit more and finally got seated. Then we tried to figure out what to do next. We went to the line for cousins Maine lobster, but also try to figure out how to get a drink and other food. It shouldn't of been complicated and it really wasn't except that nobody knew what to tell us. In line at Cousins, after placing the order we were told it would be another 45 minutes because they were really busy. Hindsight we should've just gotten our food and seeing if a table is ready at that time. But that wasn't what we were told to do. Now for the good part. The food was very tasty. From Detroit fleet we got the garlic Brussel sprouts and fries. Yum. We loved both. We got lobster rolls from Cousins and these were delicious. It was a nice environment and a perfect evening outside. So overall a good time. But they need better communication for sure.

    Chips & Dip

    i had this delivered by grub hub, so the review is just on food and not the service. I had a jerk chicken taco (2tacos) and a beefy boy (2 tacos). I think problem number one is we ordered close to closing time. The jerk chicken taco with the corn was actually great. Nice flavors, nice amount and right amount of heat. The beefy boy was really missing the beef!! Ironic considering the name. The small amounts we received were just bland. Nothing special about this one and neither of us finished it. We also ordered a side of chips and salsa. Chips were missing salt and the salsa was missing everything that makes it's salsa!! Not impressed with this one which is sad because we were excited about it..

    Today was my third time here and maybe my last. It's too bad because it's 2 miles ish from my home, and the space is super cute and perfect when the weather is nice. The first time we did the igloo, which was nice but was freezing despite the heaters. The second was ok. Today was absolutely ridiculous. First of all, the online system is completely useless and you don't actually have a server who checks on you so when I couldn't get the stupid thing to work, I had to go up to the bar to ask someone and they basically admitted to me that the app doesn't work right and sucks. So why not get rid of it and give us a server like a normal place? The app wouldn't let me check out or add anything to a tab. The pretzel bites are ok, but they are way too overcooked and the seasoning is weird. The cheese is good, however. I got a salad and it was truly disappointing- mostly just lettuce with a few pieces of vegetables and was $11. Never again. I think I'll stick to just drinks in the future if I decide to return. Oh, there was a literal hair in my salad after all of that.

    Fleat has been known as a permanent food truck park for some time. It's a cool setup, where you can order from different trucks, and then find yourself a table to enjoy your meal. Covid, plus the weather, changes the equation. Food is still served, but you don't go to a truck to order it. You can order through an app from the table, or go to a counter and place your order. Heated igloos are set up in the parking lot, replacing open tables, or you can sit indoors. I wanted to watch the football game, so we sat next to the fireplace. The drinks were very reasonable. A strong Moscow Mule sets you back six dollars. A potent pint of draft beer costs the same. They were plenty of great options on tap. The food showed up quickly. I ordered the slider trio for $15. The fried chicken sandwich was amazing: crispy and well seasoned on the outside, but juicy on the inside. The hamburger slider was small, but with a lot of beef flavor. The whiskey BBQ slider was similar, but with barbecue sauce that distracted from the flavor of the beef. Next time, I am going to try the veggie slider instead. There are a variety of different fries available, all of them crispy steak fries. I got the Parmesan garlic fries, which or suddenly seasoned. My wife usually loads up on ketchup, but she said they were so tasty if she didn't need any. Despite cheap drink prices, prices add up because everything is separate. Dinner and 1 drink each for 3 set us back $90 with tip included (which you leave at the counter when you place your order). Portions aren't huge, but what you get is very good.

    Amazing kid area! It was a total surprise and so stinking cute! Activities for all types of kids if all ages.

    Can I give more than 5 stars? This place was enticing from instagram pictures but let me tell you it not only lived up to the hype, it was better than I expected. First off, the staff was friendly. And not that half smile when you bring your toddler in, like one genuinely nice interaction after another. The food and drinks are ordered from a QR code on the table and came out very fast ! We ordered the bbq pork salad (much bigger portion than I anticipated!), the fried chicken sandwich, kids tenders and fries, and salt and vinegar fries. ALL of it was so good. The happy hour beer is $3.50 . Um what. excuse me? I have found my new place! The kids area took us by surprise, I just assumed this food truck place was outdoor and my daughter can run around for 30 min while we eat and it'll be good. We stayed for 3 hours! The kids set up is great for kids of different ages and has enough to play with that kids didn't fight over anything, in fact the kids were playing together. It was awesome to sit down and eat my meal next to the kids area where my kid could play and have fun. Did I mention how I found my new favorite place!?! Only downside, super minor, and specific to summer, but there were quite a few bees around. Like 5-6 at our table, swarming us, not sure how to combat that but be wary! Also parents, if you're visiting in the afternoon bring sunscreen. Other than that enjoy a fun night out with the kids, amazing food, great drinks and good vibes!

    I enjoy Fleat, my friends and I go every Wednesday for trivia. The food is okay, the prices are fair, the parking is free but limited (there is a lot on either side which helps), and the staff is very friendly and helpful (when you can flag them down). You order by QR code or by flagging down their "waitstaff" (which are more order delivery people than waiters in the traditional sense). I'm the summer they offer additional food trucks which expands the offerings of the menu. Pita Pit has a schnitzel sandwich that will keep you coming back (for better or worse the guy that runs the Pita Pit reminds me of Seinfeld's "Soup Nazi" character). I honestly can't wait until Pita Pit comes back, I've been dreaming of their schnitzel since they stopped coming in the fall. The decor is your standard modern eatery style, I personally like it, lots of Detroit style (Better Maid, Faygo, and so on). Just know that if you're going for TRIVIA you need to have reservations or try your luck getting there early and sitting at the bar. It's usually booked 3-4 weeks out. It's well worth trying if you've never been.

    I've always wanted to stop in and try this place. It was surprisingly wasn't as busy as expected especially since it was a "booze brunch" Sundays. We got seated right away. The host said that we can order using the code on the table but a waitress quickly came and took our order. I was with my sons so not adult beverages. I got a grape Faygo . I ordered be black bean potato tacos it was delicious. A lot of flavor with the green sauce. My chips were seasoned great. My oldest go the whiskey burger. There was nothing left. And my youngest who only eats fries enjoyed his French fries. Over all it was good food and great service. Will be back to enjoy the patio and different food options in the summer.

    Do i have to make reservation for outdoor seating?

    I did not on Saturday and they were pretty busy. Still got a table. Wouldn't hurt to make a reservation.

    Are they still doing the igloos? If so how do you reserve one?

    You can do it online or give them a call

Everything was delicious!

    I was heading home hungry when I passed Elephant & Co, a restaurant I had on my radar for months…read more It was way past lunch and well before dinner, so I was surprised by the steady stream of customers in this pizza/tap/game room, a difficult genre to define. Upon entering, the staffer explained the set-up to enjoy a variety of beers, poured and priced by the volume. Located at the back of the restaurant, customers can select beer flavors and serve themselves, no bartender needed. A tab is started and charged based on usage, tracked through the wristband provided to you. I ordered over mobile via a QR code, selecting pretzel sticks with beer cheese dip and a large, Detroit-style pizza. The soft pretzels were tender with a lovely crusty exterior. I inhaled the first pretzel since it was past lunchtime, savoring the salty, cheesy bites. I must admit, the pretzels' saltiness temporarily affected my taste buds because the pizza had little flavor, even with the pepperoni, sausage, and olives. I definitely did not taste the hot honey drizzle. I want to praise the light, airy crust. For a deep dish pizza, it did not sit heavy in my tummy. I also appreciated that the pizza was served on a rack, to allow air circulation and to prevent sogginess. The space was dark and had both large communal tables and smaller, intimate tables. This allowed for larger groups to enjoy community beyond a friend group. The other plus is the board games that are available to pass the time while enjoying various beers.
