    So far best chicken wings in Detroit. Let me rephrase that they are PINCHE DELICIOUS!!! The burger will hit the spot too but the wings are on my mind like Georgia. The staff all family just shared their energy of good food and good company. The establishment itself nostalgic in music and good for 3 or more in your party. I suggest you go there with an empty stomach. Looking forward to tasting their soul food . That is all. Chief The biggest surprises can sometimes come without knowing

    This place is a local gem that doesn't seem to exist being where it's located. I ordered the Dex single and it was a tasty hamburger with good flavor and texture! Will visit this place again.

    I called in for lunch today. I ordered the Hanks Fi Dollar meal which was 4 wings and fries. I got the garlic Parmesan seasoning on them. This was a good meal and a great price. I do wish there were more sauce on the wings, so I'll ask for extra sauce next time. I also ordered the Baby Jays bacon burger. The burger was pretty good although a bit dry, but for the price, you can't beat it. They were not skimpy with the toppings either. The menu does have items crossed off, I don't know if these items are gone temporarily or not. The service was absolutely stellar.

    Christmas in July soul food wednesday menu

    The hype is REAL. Disclaimer: I've only eaten the Soul Food Wednesday menu, not the regular burgers. But if you can cook soul food like THAT, there's no way you're not making a top tier burger. We went on Christmas in July week, and everything was.... Sorry, I just got distracted again thinking about how good it all was. Baked chicken, cornbread stuffing, Mac and cheese, collard greens, candied yams, with cranberry sauce and gravy - 2 LOADED plates for under $30. I mean. It doesn't get better. Every. Single. Thing. Was delicious. We didn't even talk, besides occasional "oh. my god.'s" the entire time. On top of it all, Dexter himself is an absolute gem of a man. Love supporting this newer small business downriver, and hope to see it grow into something as incredible as his food!

    So we wanted to try Dexter's Grill for awhile now...so many people gave it a Good review. Well I totally get why..the food was excellent and I was so happy they offered alternative to red meat which I do not eat. I very rarely get Turkey burgers at restaurants but my husband and daughter were in the mood for a burger and I told them about this place. We ordered take out and brought it home...sorry for the pics we were so excited to eat we almost forgot to take the pics...I put mayo and ketchup and mustard and pickles on my Turkey burger at home. It was Delicious!!! I didn't get a pic of my daughters Shauny"s mushroom and Swiss burger. She loved it too! My husband said they people working were very nice came out and talked with him. We will definitely be going back!

    If you're in need of a good big ol burger cooked to order for a very affordable price, this is the place for you! The small restaurant was very kind and even gave me a cupcake for coming in. This location isn't very close to me so I can't say when I'll return but I recommend everyone check it out.

    Plenty of room to eat inside.  Very clean and inviting.

    We've had dinner from here several times now. The food is great . The chicken wings are exceptionally prepared! They really care in this kitchen! Every thing we have ordered has been cooked perfectly. The chicken wings are the best around and the Dex hamburger was delicious. Thanks so much for your wonderful service. Tonight we had pork chops and pinto beans and rice. We also had fried green tomatoes!!!! So SO tasty ! Mixed together they were the best . All priced fairly and affordably. The entire staff is committed to making quality food for our Bellies!! Thanks Dexter and Teammates!!

    Double Dex - Double Patty Burger comes with lettuce, tomatoes, onions, pickles. Cheese is optional. Combo includes drink

    Great burger! Great staff! Great dining area! Anne I even got to hear some complementary live entertainment as the fellas were putting up the Christmas decorations!

    Always heard good things about Dexter's and they didn't disappoint! Stopped in on a saturday. The wife and I both had the Dex burger combo which included the burger, fries, and drink. The burger was excellent with all the toppings included. Plenty of fries and a nice cold beverage from the cooler. This $8 combo is far better than the big fast food businesses. Excited to try their other cooked to order specials on week days. We will be back.

Most locations have a fast casual setup. I was impressed by the number of flavors and sides available. It can be hard to narrow down, so my friend and I went for a few different sauces: Classic Buffalo, Honey Chipotle, Garlic Parmesan, and Berry BBQ (seasonal.) Wait time for the food is about 20 minutes, which I think is reasonable. I've tried a ton of wings spots over time, so I'm pretty critical when it comes to ranking them. These were good, but not extraordinary. They were cooked well. The skin was crispy without drying out the meat inside. I enjoyed all of the sauces. I was definitely skeptical of the Berry BBQ; I'm glad I tried it but probably wouldn't reorder. Overall, this spot is good. I'd rank the wings higher than other chain restaurants but wouldn't seek it out above other restaurants in the Detroit area.

I came with my nephew and sister and we were all surprised at the prices vs the portion sizes! Being from Atlanta I was expecting smaller portions but they go big here! I got the Fat Daddy Sandwich and was so excited to eat it and almost burnt my tongue. The chicken was freshly fried and dressed to order. I dug into the delicious cheese fries while I waited for my sandwich to cool. Pairing it all with the fried pickles just competed the whole meal. Small area to dine in, mainly waiting space, but it was a slow evening and we decided to hang out. If im in the area i would definitely visit again.

    I used to visit Fat Daddy's all the time, but as I moved a bit further away, my visits have…read moredecreased in frequency. Still, it's always a pleasant treat to drop by and have some hot chicken once in a while. On my most recent visit, I got a couple of items: Chicken Cheese Fries, Mild ($13.70) - The fries are kind of chewy and not crisp but that could be because of the 15 min drive home before digging in. Fresh green onion and fried chicken tenders are dropped on top with the meat being not dry but not especially moist. In terms of spice level, we went with mild, which in this case is basically not spicy at all, giving just a very slight tingle on the tongue. Tangy, almost vinegary comeback sauce and a cheese sauce are drizzled on top of everything. Overall the seasoning level is good. I mean, it's fries with stuff on top; hard to mess that up. I just don't think I would get this again because the sandwiches are way better and this is just average. (3/5) Hush Puppies ($4.60) - One order comes with six pieces. These hush puppies have a nice crisp exterior skin with a tender and fluffy corn meal interior, seasoned perfectly. They come with the comeback sauce on the side, but I don't think they actually need the sauce as they are perfectly delicious by themselves. (4/5) The Fat Daddy, Hot, Pickles ($13.70) - Woah, this thing is hefty. I'd almost forgotten how big the sandwiches are. This single sandwich probably weighs equal to everything else we got. They give you a giant chicken thigh with a super moist interior and a crisp exterior. The chicken has a bit of heat at hot but is not overwhelming. Either my heat tolerance has gotten better or they've toned the heat down - I remember always getting the hot and having trouble with it in the past! They add a bit of slaw to add additional crunch. You can choose between pickles and peppers - I went with pickles to amp up the vinegar tangy notes. Everything is on a fluffy buttery bun. The sandwich comes with seasoned fries that are seasoned well and not overly salty. The texture feels a little chewy rather than being crisp and they look kind of pale, like they are under fried. A bit disappointing to be honest. (4/5) Since I first visited Fat Daddy's, they've expanded to a couple more locations around the Metro. I'm happy to see them getting their food out to a wider audience. I definitely recommend them, especially for their hot chicken sandwiches. Now if only they brought the hot bone-in chicken back - it's on the menu, but they don't actually carry it anymore. Overall rating of the food this visit: 3.67/5

Gwen said she would try and she and the kitchen came through!! Gwen also said if we needed more do not be afraid to ask. We were satiated with those 6 or 7 wings. Unfortunately we only bought my wife a soft drink and our bill was $117 and the raffle tickets are every $40 spent so we only received two of them for three of us. Nyla was great as I could not find pepper on the sauce bar to season our hangar steaks. Nyla went into the kitchen and grabbed some for me, as well as adding an equal amount of salt to the sauce bowl as I wanted both for seasoning the meat. Lina, at the front desk, helped out with questions about the raffle tickets, the snow crab legs free special on April 15 their one year anniversary of the Taylor location being open. Gwen was great and kept us in clean grills, brought extra butter for our hangar steaks as requested, and kept our pitcher of water filled. She had two mishaps right beside our table. First she accidentally spilled a cup of ice for us ( her tray had a LOT on it ). Later replacing it she dropped a second cup of ice water next to me as well. Gwen said she bragged to a coworker she had not dropped anything for a long time after the first mishap recently. I regaled her about when I bragged I never spilled my giant 64 ounce Speedway cup wedged between my front seats to a coworker. That day and the following two days it spilled three times. I told her it was GOD's humor to our pridefulness. So when she spilled the second cup, I managed to refrain from saying she was due one more spill. I hope she does not have a third spill today nor soon. Anyway, the food is top notch as always! This is our home KPOT! Anqi is great as always too.

Reservations required for 10 or more people. A table fits up to 8 people with two grills to share among 8 people. No worries since there was only 5 of us the day of, additionally they didn't end up reserving us a table. Everyone at the table must get the same thing, BBQ or BBQ and hotpot together. Gwen waited on us. There is a $10 upgrade for the dinner meats and protein (marked as red under the protein selections). What a bummer!. A lot of the meats and protein items my team wanted are only available at the dinner time menu, unless you pay the extra $10 per person, a premium for it. None of my team wanted to pay the dinner price for a few premium meats. The iPad is used for ordering your meats and vegetable and rice, easy to used. Cart order shows as $0. Place order and items takes about 5 minutes to come out on a cart. The soybean paste as well as the sesame oil with little pepper and salt is a good dipping sauce for your barbecue meat. The appetizers were not so yummy. It's only chicken nuggets, veggie spring rolls and fries. Some more of the Korean bunsik items would have been good. The banchans are so-so. The kimchi, cucumber, sliced radish, and radish chunks were just OK. The tofu skins were odd, I thought they were fish cake at first. They are not. Our grill had to be replaced a few times, additionally the vent hood wasn't working properly. We were inundated with smoke at times. Gratuity of 18% is added for parties of 5 or more. Spicy chicken was decent, sinewy and gristly though. Pork belly and bulgogi was ok. Calamari was so-so. The garlic shrimp was good. Prefer Korean BBQ restaurants, the buffet bar is good for the dipping sauce for the hotpot, but not a lot of good apps or fruit options for me.

We were sat at a table that was not fully bussed until we got there and it was a really quick wipe down. We sat and ordered our food. The appetizer tray came out of the kitchen and had some kind of white sauce all over the bottom that then smeared all over the table. I had to ask the server to wipe down the tray and table. We moved the salt and pepper menu holder to make room on the table and some non-descript small glass object feel off the table that was hidden in the menu holder and shattered on the floor. We were unable to identify what exactly the small glass object was. We informed the server there was some broken glass on the floor to which they never cleaned up after they mentioned they would sweep. There were at least 5 tables in the restaurant full of dirty dishes during our entire visit. The floors did not appear to had been swept in hours. There was plenty of restaurant staff just standing around not doing very much. On the plus side; the food order came out correctly and was properly prepared. Kudos to the kitchen staff minus the dirty appetizer tray. However, a secret shopper would have had a field day with management pertaining to the front of the house. In conclusion, the service was a little slow on what appeared to be a slower Friday night. The dining room was filthy and unkept. The staff were unmotivated and performing minimal job duties. This all falls on management. It was clear management was uninterested in properly managing this location and I found it to be embarrassing to the Buffalo Wild Wings brand. I will not be back at this location anytime soon.
