The food was AMAZINGGG,…read moresuch kind staff and quick service (even took the ladies orders first! ), great location in downtown Saginaw. Our table ordered their fried pork chops, fried catfish, bacon smashburger, and tried most of their sides - as well as a few desserts too (lemon cake, banana pudding and peach cobbler). Thank you Sarah's Cafe for a great place here in Saginaw. See you soon!

Anytime I go back to a restaurant the next day, something definitely went right…read more A nice and warm Mom & Pop-esque ambience is what I noticed immediately upon entrance. Not even two steps inside and we were greeted and seated. Our server was super friendly and informative. I always ask the server popular and what they like personally. First evening, I opted for the fish since the turkey tacos were sold out. The fish was seasoned great. Not too salty. The sides were perfect. Couple that with the great customer service and price value, returning the next day was a no brainer. I'll definitely look forward to return to Sarah's Cafe whenever I'm back in Saginaw.

The Rite Spot Restaurant is a gem found in my hometown in Saginaw, Michigan. The co-owners, husband and wife team, Leon & Natasha Burns, since 2003 have spent countless hours developing a menu and an environment that keeps customers coming back for more. Their famous tacos are the show stoppers! Iykyk If your are not preparing these Saginaw style tacos yourselves, this is the next best option without the cleanup afterward. On this recent visit we ordered eight taco dinners for the family - 4 beef and 4 turkey. They went soooo fast that I didn't get one photo of the tacos! Delicious!!! You have to trust me and go try them for yourself. You will not be disappointed! Note: They are closed on Sundays and Mondays. There are a few tables inside and picnic tables outside for dining.

Amazing service and great food the people there are really nice I never had a problem with anyoneread more

10/14/2013 I received a flyer advertising a new soul food restaurant, and decided to check it out…read more I am a Tennessee native and really miss authentic soul food. They have a fair amount of items on the menu. I opted for rib tips, dressing, baked mac&cheese and collard greens. Deeeelicious! You can tell the greens were fresh and they used smoked turkey. The dressing was very good. I was told it was the grandmas recipe. Also i was given a free strawberry lemonade and peach cobbler (excellent) for my wait, about 12 minutes. Very impressed! The atmosphere was clean and the staff were very polite and welcoming. I was given a coupon for 25% off my next visit a my husband and I will surely be back!

Corn bread is made somewhere in China. Dry. Not home made I am 100% certain. You would think they…read morewould give you butter to at least attempt to cover the dryness. No. Too expensive I guess Pulled pork has no flavor at all. Ribs were just ok. They want 32 bucks per pound for brisket - don't offer it till 3. If you want a smaller portion the price per pound is more. Why?,?,,, pretty sure I am glad I arrived too early for brisket. I smoke foods at home. With pride. The guests suggested next time we just eat at my house. Fries were ok. Get bottled beer not draft. Lines are not clean. Service was very nice. Food, even though off the main drag is 100% tourist type.

I got Baked Beans and asparagus with it, both premium sides so extra. The Sirloin tips were good, however the Bourbon sauce was unlike any Bourbon sauce I've had before. In this case that's not a good thing. It was saved though by the tables Slo's bbq sauce. The Baked Beans were excellent and slightly spicy. The asparagus was a big pass. I would have expected a bbq twist on it, however they were very plain. When you're seated they bring a generous slice of cornbread. It was excellent. They serve honey butter with it, I'd add cinnamon for a nice addition! The service was good. Friendly and helpful. Overall a 4 star review. Would I return? Yes, but I'd get a different dish. I was surprised it wasn't busier for a Memorial Sunday lunch.
