The bigger issue was the bill: our group was charged 20% gratuity even though the menu clearly stated 18%, and the explanation we got was unclear and undocumented. We also had a reservation, but the staff seemed unprepared for our group. Some great food, but the inconsistencies and billing issue left a bad impression.

Dogwoods Kitchen and Bar was a solid dinner spot for our family and honestly... we left full and…read morehappy. I ordered the mushroom burger and it did not disappoint. Big, juicy, and piled with smothered mushrooms plus all the classic burger fixins'. It came with house-made chips seasoned with Cajun and they were SO good. Flavorful, a little kick, but not overpowering. My kids both got Cajun-seasoned fries with their meals and they weren't spicy at all, just really good flavor. One had the cheeseburger (which was huge for a kids meal) and the other had mac & cheese. The mac was good, just not my favorite thing on the table -- but that might just be me being picky. My husband ordered the pepperoni and hot honey flatbread and that was a sleeper hit. The sweet heat combo was perfect. Service was great. Drinks stayed filled, food came out in a good rhythm, and we never felt ignored. The vibe inside is what I'd call an upscale diner. Cloth napkins, nice lighting, clean, comfortable. You could do a casual date night or bring your kids like we did and feel fine either way. The only reason it's not 5 stars is the pricing. $17 for a burger without fries feels a little steep, and adding fries for $3 extra adds up fast. Kids meals at $8 felt fair though. They do have happy hour every day, which is a nice touch.

My wife and I arrived shortly after doors opened on a Saturday. The bartender manned both the bar and tables by himself, and was efficient and friendly. We started our meal with mac and cheese bites and fried pickles. Both were about what you'd expect. For our entrees, I ordered the "basic bitch" poutine, while my wife got the "Harlem Hanni" with a side of onion rings. Both the poutine and Hani fell short of my expectations. The poutine desperately needed salt, and the Hani was a bit dry. Like the appetizers, the onion rings were standard. If you're looking for a casual, fun place to get drinks and some bar food, I'm sure you'll enjoy yourself here. On the flip side, Liberty is classified as a poutinerie, and the poutine was below average.

For being an old Rite Aid it's very nicely spaced and capacious. 12 full bays along all the sides with trackman systems, waitstaff, full kitchen with a one page menu, and a good time. I had them make my own cocktail and they gladly complied. Bourbon- honey- lemon- soda. Solid refresher. Also tried the shrimp tacos; 2 tacos for $15... they were decent however two different types of tortillas aren't necessary so I had them bail the corn tortilla and go with the one flour. The shrimp could've been better; they were not well cooked and a bit slimy. The avocado crema was decent. My buds had smash burgers and they said they were decent. The people who work there are great... even sarcastic and funny. Perfect for my type of humor. It does add up a bit but $165 for 3 hours of sim time isn't bad and the systems are nice. Really dig all the unique seating options and tvs everywhere. I'll def be back to golf and to drink! Best new spot- best spot in Waterford.

Shared orange poppy seed cake and strawberry rhubarb crumble for dessert. Oops! No pic! Trust me, they were yummy! Only reason for 4 instead of 5 stars is that my steak had quite a bit of inedible streaks running thru it. Flavor was on point, just had to cut a lot away. Friend's steak, however, didn't have so much of that gristly stuff.

This is the bar where I bought my first beer. I started going to this bar 20 years ago (I'm 36…read morenow) This is the quintessential dive bar. It is a place where the beer is cold and shots are overflowing. I don't think the owners have even heard of a jigger before. I will always have a sentimental feeling for this place. I learned to play cricket with some serious dart players and how to sand a shuffle board (It's gone now). They also have an eclectic jukebox. However, I have to warn that in typical dive bar fashion, this one is located in a pretty sketchy strip and may not be a place for the jumpy. Fortunately the North Oakland Medical Center (or whatever it is called now) is located across the street. If believe this place has either the oldest or one of the oldest liquor licenses in MI. In sum, if you are looking for a real dive bar, look no further than Prues.
