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

Tara's Turkey Burger Combo

Dex single burger combo

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.

Baby Jays bacon burger

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
Kara W.

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!

This is the Double Dex combo

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.

I had cheeseburgers on my mind, found Grand Dad's on Yelp and went after work. I had the Dole Whip…read moredrink special and it was so delicious I could've finished it in 3 sips if I didn't control myself! The double smash burger hit the spot for being beefy and cheesy, nice soft bun with onion, lettuce and tomato(?). Side of Mayo came with it, other condiments in a basket with utensils. It was a little messy but that's what made it delicious. I tried the garlic dill fries and they were thinner cut, hot, crispy and while seasoned well- which for some may be a little too salty. I would get them plain next time- I will definitely be back as I enjoyed the meal so much. They have seats at the bar, tables inside and a good sized covered outdoor patio. Darker ambiance inside with lighting from neon lights and 3 big TV screens above the bar, though some evening natural light added in. Service was great, since I sat at that bar where the drinks were being made. Staff were busy taking care of food and drink orders but attentive to customers at all the right times: greeting new ones at the bar, they took my order promptly, food came out in decent amount of time for dinner/ Happy Hour crowd. Prices were reasonable for the quality and portion of food I enjoyed. Clean inside and good communication between staff making sure everything was going smoothly. There's limited parking on the street outside but a large lot a short distance away, accessible to those with mobility concerns. Patio could seat about 15 and inside seat 30(?) including barstools, plus standing room for busier times. I highly recommend this spot for food, drinks and a good time.

This place is pretty good for a quick bite and a good drink. The vibe is cool and it is definitely…read morefor a younger crowd and the service is amazing, food is just okay but everything else is great. I had the Double Burger and Hott Fries. They were both really good but nothing too special but for the price it is definitely worth it cause for me and my wife to eat and have drinks was under $40. I didn't know you could still go out to eat for that price.

It's a place with personality, and you can tell a lot of care went into creating the vibe. I visited while in town with family after they recommended it as one of their favorite spots, and it definitely lived up to the hype. The atmosphere had a distinct personality, vibrant, nostalgic, and full of character. Even the seating and layout contributed to that energy, making the whole space feel intentional and fun without trying too hard. The game room on the side was such a fun surprise, filled with vintage pinball machines and old-school arcade games that gave the whole place extra character. It added a sense of fun and whimsy that really set it apart. I ordered two sliders: the Jalapeño Cajun and the Awesome Avocado. Both were flavorful, juicy, and well-balanced in seasoning. They came out fresh and were nicely presented. I also tried the poutine, it was a decent portion and definitely satisfying, though not the most memorable I've had. Still, everything felt like solid value for the price, especially with the generous portions and the overall vibe of the restaurant. Between the decor, the food, and all the vintage details, it was easy to snap a few great shots and enjoy the whole experience from start to finish. All in all, a fun and satisfying visit. The atmosphere is what made it stand out, and I'd absolutely stop by again the next time I'm in town.

I did not realize this burger place is a part of gas station-fast food when I initially looked it…read moreup. Our flight landed late at night and there weren't a lot of options, so I wasn't too optimistic despite the high reviews. I stand to be corrected. Do not treat this like gas station food. Although, they don't have water (you gotta buy soda or water from the convenience store connected), so it doesn't feel quite like a full restaurant either. Anyways, it was late at night, but the employees were busy prepping togo/takeout orders. Despite that, they took time to go over the menu with us, and made recommendations based on our personal preference. They also gave us ideas on how we can customize our order. They made everything fresh, so we had some time to walk around the convenience store. After walking around, we decided to wait at the table. The staff saw us and they kindly brought the food over to the table. I don't know if they normally do that, but they're definitely one of the best fast-food service I've had. As for my burger, I didn't want something heavy so I went for a basic burger. The burger was...basic, but good. I stole a bite of my husband's spicy burger and that was amazing. I wished I didn't try his before having my own because I am a bit biased because of that. My husband also went back for round 2 of ordering...with the loaded fries....it was indeed very loaded, and to be honest, way too salty for me. However, it was customized based on my husband's request so it combined multiple seasoning.

My first time here. My wife and I landed after flying 6 hours from california. It's a short drive…read morefrom the airport, we were so hungry. The store is pretty big because it's connected to a gas station. But even the taysteenpart is big. Maybe around 6-7 tables inside. Standard fast food interior. The staff were really helpful! I ordered the volcano with grilled jalapenos and onions. It was the bomb. For $15 it was so damn good. So fresh tasting. Way better than 90% of burgers I've had and the meat was so tender. If you haven't had taystee before you gotta. I'm sold.
