    Almond rice salad
    Kawthar A.

    This place was delightful! The lady at the counter was super nice. I came by for a quick lunch and got an almond rice salad and a small hummus that came with fresh pita bread. The salad dressing was perfect! Not sour or too sweet. Just right. The vegetables were fresh and the rice perfectly fluffy. They are halal. The hummus was absolutely perfect too! So smooth and creamy.

    The microwaved lentil soup :(

    Came back because of a good experience prior, however this experience was very poor. Basically the food is not fresh. My lentil soup looked liked it was in the fridge and they microwaved it in the styrofoam container. The styrofoam container was slightly disfigured and the soups consistency reminded me of tapioca pudding. Gross. Definitely not the soup I had at previous occasions. Also, The chicken schwarma wrap was cold! Poor poor poor experience! Oh, and now charging 75 cents for a small bag of SAMs club pita bread....doesn't come with any meal.

    Now I can only speak on my order. Chicken Shwarma. It was absolutley amazing! Every single bite as good as the next. I actually was getting upset that I was getting close to the end. Some people might have dropped it as entire star because of this. Again, amazing. Nice looking sitting area. Nice looking inside. Easy read menu board. Didnt check out the restroom area I was to dang hungry to think about that, lol. Anyways, if you're ever in Westland off Wayne and Palmer definetly stop in and try atleast my simple order. Chicken Shwarma..

    Got a Spinach fattoush salad with chicken. It was amazing! I am on a health kick and this is going to be my go to lunch or dinner for busy days! They had fresh ingredients which included cucumbers, tomatoes and onions. I got a ton of food for 12 dollars! Price was so reasonable! They were quick which was nice too! I can't wait to try the chicken shawarma and the smoothies they offer!

    I found this place on an online delivery app, and gave it a try for something new. I am SUPER picky…read moreabout burger places - some of my difficult other reviews prove it - but this was a fantastic experience. I had no idea it was a small place in a gas station until I came here to write this review. Re-learned the lesson not to judge a book by its cover! The double smashburgers, which were on a special/deal, were excellent. More food that one person could eat, in this case! My steak & cheese burger was also fantastic. Tender meat, generous portion, and great flavor. My partner had a crispy chicken sandwich she really enjoyed. Would definitely order any of these again! My kids split an Oreo milkshake they really enjoyed, of course it melted a bit in-transit but was still quite tasty. We also had some hot wings (which were EXCELLENT - tender meat, spicy but not insane), and some cheese fries (great, but probably got a bit soggy during delivery - in a perfect world, we'd have the cheese on the side so we can dump it on once they arrive). The onion rings were also a bit of a disappointment - they tasted like they came from a frozen bag, and they were a bit soggy. Maybe poke some holes in the container lid and cook them a bit extra crispy next time? But these are small qualms. Importantly, they got our order perfect. I would love to stop in and try their food in-person to see if it's even better when it's fresh off the grill/fryers.

    I usually grab a burger 1-2 times a month, and my go-to is typically Five Guys (which I think has…read morethe best fast food burger in Michigan). But when Burger One opened near my office, I decided to give it a shot. Unfortunately, I was really disappointed. The burger was overcooked and dry, and the fries were just mediocre. Honestly, I would have preferred a Quarter Pounder from McDonald's over what I had here.

We had a reservation and…read morestill waited 30-40 minutes, and I walked past whole empty sections on my way to the bathroom, so I don't know what the holdup was. The confirmation text didn't come through until we were already inside, which might be bad reception, but it almost cost us the table. Then they sat us right across from the back kitchen entrance. Banging, yelling, and an open doorway into the kitchen. Off-putting, especially with better seating clearly open. The food keeps the rating up. I did not expect a wings place, but the smoked wings were my favorite, right amount of crispy with good smoke. The sauce list is long and I couldn't pick a favorite. The ranch tasted house-made and it was amazing. The chikin soho was the other standout. Honey ginger glaze, chili dijon slaw, and pickles that all work together. Misses: the brisket nachos needed fresh guac and actual brisket, since there was barely any. The 6 cheese mac was fine but not worth ordering again. Prices were right for what it is, a bistro concept. It's in Wayne, which surprised me since I didn't know spots like this existed out here. Wide enough menu that I'll be back. Next time I'm speaking up about the seating.

    I ordered my burger medium rare and it was served a perfect medium rare. The smoked Gouda was an…read moreexcellent choice, but I ordered four toppings and they mostly obscured the great beefy flavor - my mistake. The ingredients were fresh ... melted smoked Gouda, (shredded) lettuce, tomato and pickled peppers. Not a fan of shredded lettuce. I prefer a couple of leaves of chilled crisp lettuce. The tomato was a winter tomato and did not add any acidity. The bun was properly toasted a beautiful golden brown. The onion rings ... sigh. Tasty and not a grease farm ... and while fried perfectly, they arrived mostly a giant lump of stuck together. They were served hot and on a separate plate a few minutes after the burger arrived. I decided to splurge and try a peanut butter shake. Terrific ice cream ... no HFCS aftertaste. Great peanut butter flavor. Two disappointments: - Value. $8 for the size ... insufficient value. - I like my milkshakes to be blended a bit coarse; not blended textureless, soft-serve smooth. You've been warned. My wife ordered the bison burger, well done. It was served precisely as ordered. She was happy. The portion of sweet potato fries was large, properly fried and served hot. Ambiance ... disturbed by one VERY LOUD woman engaged in a running dialog with the bartender. They seemed to know each other. Otherwise; it is clean, organized and has a good neighborhood bar vibe. Will I return? Yes.

    This place is ok, not terrible, not the best. Normal burger spot in my opinion. Very tiny inside,…read morenot super clean (standard bar cleanliness). Service was good. Prices were ok. Not sure that we will come back.

The coleslaw is of the shredded/vinegar variety. It is a wonderful accompaniment for the pork! The menu includes creamed corn casserole - a comfort food that Grandma served. It was good, but Grandma "seasoned" hers with bacon - lots of very crispy, thick-cut bacon. I almost order the Mac & Cheese, but the recipe is creamy and I am more of a baked/firm kind'a guy. The baked beans smelled wonderful ... next time! Will I return? YES! I will probably grab a carry-out container and enjoy my BBQ in the park. Closed: Monday, Tuesday & Wednesday Go early.

I don't come around often because the hours are odd (they are closed Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday), and the meat goes fast, so by the time I get off from work, a lot of the options are sold out. The last time I was there, I was lucky enough to get the last Brisket Meal, and the guy behind me was bummed out because he wanted it too. I've tried the Dirty Rice (rice with pork, brisket, kielbasa, and chicken), Mac & Cheese, and the Brisket. I highly recommend the Brisket and Mac & Cheese. The meal comes with a pound of brisket, coleslaw, and one side. The brisket is tender, juicy, and delicious, with enough meat in the meal for 2-3 people. They also sell baby back ribs, smoked chicken, and pork shoulder.
