Motown Cafe was awesome and one of my favorite surprise Detroit breakfast spots…read more The first point I'd make about this spot is it's an incredible bang for your buck. If you took their Catfish and Grits and stuck in a Downtown, Midtown or Eastern Market location, it'd cost at least $27. It comes with 3 huge filets of Catfish, 2 Eggs and Grits. Here, it's only $18 and there is a 0% chance you're not taking some home unless you're Kobyashi. The Chicken and Waffles was fantastic as well, and again, you're getting a huge portion for around $14. You are almost guaranteed to be taking some home. I was super impressed. The Catfish was well made and didn't have a ton of batter caked on to it which is my only deal breaker when it comes to Catfish. I put some hot sauce on it and it was fantastic with the Grits and Eggs. The Chicken on the chicken and waffles and juicy, hot and huge. It had a flavorful batter on it, but it wasn't too much to where you felt like they were chicken tenders off the kids menu. The service was awesome and our waitress was incredibly accommodating (Multiple Coffee refills, brought out a bunch of condiments, nice). The store owner was incredibly nice as well. The inside is a clean diner with comfortable booths. You're not packed in here and your party isn't spilling into other people's tables like other spots. It's a very relaxing spot to eat midday when you have things coming up and just need peace. This area of Van Dyke doesn't have many restaurants, so go and patronize this one that's a bit off the beaten path. You won't leave disappointed or hungry!

I started with the Toucan Sam drink which was the only rum drink on their menu of specialty cocktails. It's a really good drink that is slightly bitter due to the campari and toasted almond bitters. For food, I was craving a burger but I visited on the wrong day. I chose the Thai style wings and a carne asada taco. Wings - the wings were decent but I got tired of eating them after the first 2. The thai peppers that it came with were not very spicy at all. The meat was also a little challenging to get off the bones for some reason. Taco - I enjoyed this better than the wings, even though this was smaller. Service was decent but not perfect. I was already ready to leave and then they asked if I wanted another drink. They were about 5 mins late since the bar area wasn't actively manned during a majority of my visit.

But the quality is excellent, and honestly, that matters more than my preference for quirky and bold flavor combinations. Not many places you can get a quick-service burger cooked perfectly medium! Note about the Alabama BBQ as someone who grew up in Bob Gibson's neck of the woods: what Little Ghost is serving is NOT Alabama white sauce. A distant cousin at best. Makes sense, because true white sauce is runny and has no place on burgers or chicken tenders--it's really meant to give smoked chicken some bite. I'd describe Little Ghost's offering as a peppered mayo. It's pretty great on the fries!

This place is unreal. Too beautiful for this world…read more First off the food is awesome. I've eaten at a number of shawarma spots in Hamtramck and Boostan is the best hands down. Chicken cream chops sandwich has a strange name but is excellent--much creamier than a regular shawarma sandwich. The Boostan shawarma is amazing; straightforward but excellent. On top of that it is cheap--maybe the cheapest in Hamtramck. How much is the best shawarma wrap in Hamtown? SIX. DOLLARS! They are so generous with their portions as well, including the non-sandwich dishes. The staff are super friendly as well. Just don't come here expecting a nice place to eat. Get your feed and head to a nearby park.

I highly recommend getting the bone marrow and you can't go wrong with any of the steaks. They are locally sourced which makes them that much better. The steak was cooked just how I want it. Also the drinks were just as delicious as well. I got an old fashioned and it was mixed perfectly. This is a great new, unique, delicious restaurant that needs to be checked out while you are in Detroit.
