As a novice of woodworking, I was blown-away by the intricate woodwork and finishings throughout the home. The three ladies that lead our tour of the home shared many interesting details about the property, its restoration, and details of Clara and Henry's years at the estate. Many of the restoration stories, like finding a tub for Henry's bathroom or how Clara had a section repainted white were intriguing. Even though much of the home, especially the second floor, is still being restored it was a fascinating experience.

The juxtaposition of the estate of an industrialist (or robber baron, or visionary, or racist, depending on your point of view) with a distinctive immigrant community makes for a striking reflection on Americana. The grounds include some gardens, and a lake with a path around it. Access to the river is limited, but it didn't look like that impressive of a river. The greenery is more worthwhile.

Someone who's been to several events there recently said the experience was pretty disappointing. The event seemed short-staffed, so things didn't run smoothly for guests. The food was also an issue--some of it was undercooked, and they even ran out before everyone was served. What stood out most was that management never really came out to check on things or address any of the problems. Overall, it didn't live up to what people used to expect from Park Place, and it's probably not a top choice right now.

The food was very good as well. However, the behavior of the bartending staff was at best, questionable and at worst, abominable. This behavior took place during my niece's wedding reception at your place of business. I've been told of numerous incidents from my family members that they've witnessed. I, however, will only list the behaviors that I have observed. As I understand it, the agreement between you and my niece's family was to tally up the cost of the by head AND by consumption and then bill the lesser amount calculated between the two. Additionally, it was agreed upon that the gratuity was included in the bill. With this criteria, I was taken aback by the waitstaff hitting my sister-in-law for a tip before they served her as well as others...but as I was standing next to her ordering my drink, no comment was made to me about tipping. Why is that? I found it odd that your liquor selection was presented as it was for a wedding reception service package. I asked for a Scotch on the rocks and was told that the only Scotch you had was 12 YO MacAllan - a top shelf offering. Really? You have 7 types of Bourbon ranging from well to top shelf and but only one Scotch handle and a high end one? Sorry not buying that for one minute....at all. My perception is that your staff was looking to run up the bill by using top shelf liquor as the only options available. Never mind the fact that they were overtly generous with their pours - which I know will help "pad" the consumption rate. I was also surprised to hear a lot of inappropriate comments made by them throughout the evening. I'm not above an innuendo-laden joke, but there's a time and place for kind of a humor - and a wedding reception, which should be clear to anyone with a modicum of professional courtesy, is NOT THE TIME AND THE PLACE. Worst of all, I witnessed the wait staff completely ignoring the the father of the groom and his mother. No one acknowledged them and they gave up without being served the entire night. I would seriously hate to think that you would do that based on their ethnicity - but I saw I what I saw and that is my perception. Just shameful and disgusting. As you know in the hospitality/restaurant/service business the customer's perception IS THE ONLY PERCEPTION THAT MATTERS. After it is my dollar you're after...and ultimately my decision to continue to spend that dollar at your establishment or take my business elsewhere. I generally don't write reviews (positive or negative) as I find them to be a colossal waste of my time and energy. I rate with my dollar. If I like the place - I come back. If I don't like it - I don't go back. See how easy that is? But what transpired that night was a bridge too far for me to just let it slide. I saw a recent article in the Detroit Free Press about this place closing up for good so a luxury apartment complex can build on your location. This explains a lot of the above behavior - I mean, this place has an expiration date so why should the management or staff give a rip about the quality of the service they provide when you all have Short-Timer's Disease? Your refusal to make it right with bride and groom and their respective families has only served to bolster my perception. Perhaps it is for the best that you as a restaurant will cease to exist in a few months. Based on the 5-6 hours I spent at your place - you clearly have demonstrated that you have no business being in business.

There's coffee, boba, ice cream, sushi, tacos, burgers, chicken and waffles?! And there's some little shops, at least one, which had jewelry when I went. Overall, if you are meeting with someone to chat, come here. If you're hungry, I assure you'll find something. It's good for a casual date or catch up with friends and family. High energy but not chaotic.

This is a cool concept spot with multiple food trucks outside, a few food spots on the inside, and…read morecommon seating areas both inside and outside. You can pay cash at the food trucks or you can use an app (scan a QR code) to order using your credit card. You can order through the app for any of the trucks or inside spots. This is a great way try a bunch of different places in one spot, or, have options for everyone in your family who can't agree on where to go for lunch or dinner. I'll review each of the places we tried below (TL;DR), but overall, food was excellent, delivery was quick (except for one truck...more on that below), atmosphere was good, vibe was relaxed and upbeat, very clean inside, and friendly/helpful staff and truck operators all around. Some prices were a bit high, but we didn't feel like it was extreme based on the quality of food and the ability to easily try different offerings without having to drive all over. The biggest knock was that even though we were greeted right away by a very friendly 'guide' when we walked in, his explanation of how the concept works was confusing and incomplete. We ended up having to speak to the folks running the trucks to better understand how to navigate the ordering process, cash vs credit card, and the ability to order everything from all the different trucks on one ticket, not separate tickets for each truck. Our other disappointment was that we went there for lunch (at 12:30p on the weekend) and the biggest indoor spot we wanted to try told us they weren't opening until 2pm so we'd have to come back later (maybe next time). Here's who we ended up trying: Big Red's BBQ Pit: Holy Smokin' Brisket Burnt Ends Batman! Big Red served up the absolute best burnt ends I've ever had from a food truck, and at the top of the list for all time best that I've had. Perfectly charred, crunchy bark while maintaining a juicy, tender, melt-in-your-mouth perfectly smoked inside. The rub and BBQ sauce were spot-on. Everyone in our family agreed that it was the best thing we tried all day. I guess I could have just said: 10/10 no notes. So Cheesy: Came highly recommended by some friends. A delicious sounding menu with some great options. The Steak Tacos were tender, flavorful, and filled to the max. The cilantro aioli and chipotle crema were flavor-bombs that really brought it all together. Fries were cooked and seasoned perfectly. The Phili-Mignon sandwich was very good, but not quite as good as I was hoping to get based on the description and price. It was on the small side, very bread-heavy, short on steak, and the beet horseradish mayo was lacking the 'kick' I was looking for. Again, perfectly cooked & seasoned fries on the side. This was the busiest truck we ordered from, so the wait time was much longer than all the rest, especially since there was only one guy working. However, while talking to the guy at the Parma truck (more below) after he finished our order, he ran over to So Cheesy to give him a hand in the truck and help push out food. IMHO, I thought this showed a great collaboration and willingness to put the customer first. Overall, a good experience with So Cheesy, but I'd skip the Phili-Mignon Sandwich and opt for a burger (heard others there saying how amazing they were) or their tacos on our next visit. Parma: My wife had the Arugula Insalata and couldn't stop raving about it. She loved the ingredients, flavor, freshness, and size. Possibly one of the best 'bang for your buck' items that we tried. I didn't catch his name, but the gentleman running the truck was super nice, brought my wife's salad inside to her while the rest of us were outside waiting on other food, and even ran over to help the guy in the So Cheesy truck push out orders! Amo Samis Sammies: We tried the Breadless Chicken Shawarma Bowl. It was delicious and piled a mile high with tasty, marinated, tender chicken. The dressing was light and tangy, and the Lebanese pickles were incredible. I initially thought the price was a bit high for a 'bowl', but after seeing how much chicken was stacked on top, it made sense.
