    Wanted something quick and convenient and close too. I never went to the KFC before this place popped here. Hoping this one stays a while. We ordered a large chicken Greek salad with no feta and a grilled chicken salad with no cheese or pitas for either salad. Bella took our order and checked us out too, she seemed warm and amiable. Total is $20.97. The salads looked packed. It's covered and smothered with a ton of chicken, doesn't look dry either, like our salad yesterday. The chicken was moist, had good flavor, all was good until I came across a decent sized piece of cartilage, it turned me off on the chicken immediately. I couldn't stomach anymore potential encounters of cartilage after that one piece. The lettuce is a mix mostly iceberg, some piece of romaine and spinach too. Their Greek dressing base seems to be a ranch, would have been good to know since I was avoiding dairy tonight, hence the salads with no cheeses on them. PThe only thing Greekesque about the dressing is the pink enhancement from the beets, it actually doesn't taste like any Greek dressing I have ever had any other Greek or coney place before. I ended up using the Newman's balsamic I had at home on my Greek dressing instead, wasn't ideal, but no dairy at least. My hubby said his grilled chicken salad was pretty good, but he didn't like the oddly sweet raspberry vinaigrette much. Their tomatoes, lettuce mix, cucumbers and red onions are all nice and fresh. Their protein portions are generous, had good flavor, just needs some work on trimming the less than desirable bits off of them. Their Greek dressing could taste more like a Greek dressing should be and less like a Ranch.

    Love this so convenient and delicious! Their salads are amazing! Chicken lemon rice is always a hit with the kids!

    Been here about 50 times! I am a dietitian/trainer and I mostly cook at home, but I'm ordering out I want it to have a lot of protein! The Greek chicken salad here is my favorite and it is LOADED with protein. It makes two high protein meals for me. They also have the best pita. they are always friendly :) and I love that they have a drive thru.

    I tried what is my first drive-thru coney. They have a good, complete menu. And prices are reasonable. The coneys are good. They appear to use the chili from National Coney Island. Thats not good or bad...just an observation. The person on the mic taking orders was very nice and friendly. My food was ready quickly. I got 2 coneys, fries, and an order of chicken tenders just to see what they were like (they are frozed pre-breaded ones, but what do you expect at a drive-thru coney. I can see this being convenient when i just want something quick on the way home.

    In the Detroit area? You gotta have a Coney, or 2. So, that's what I did. It was about a 10 minute walk from where I was staying. There is no dining in. It's take-out or drive thru. I opted for 2 Coney Islands and an order of cheese fries. Since it was cold out, and a long walk, I was afraid my food was going to get cold. But, surprisingly it didnt. The dogs and the fries were still hot when I dove in to them. This place was not shy about the portions. Everything hit the spot.

    Greek Salad with SO MUCH grilled chicken

    Called in a carryout order for a Greek salad with chicken and it was ready within 10 minutes. So fast! They have the pink style of Greek dressing and it's one of the best versions I've had. The salad was huge with tons of moist chicken. Their fast service, affordable pricing, and high quality means I'll be back often.

It has perfect density, is well-seasoned, and is easily 15% better than a Five Guys patty. The Toppings: The lack of customization is frustrating. No extra options or toppings are allowed. It comes with American cheese, shredded iceberg lettuce (not a fan), and way too much sauce. The sauce itself is okay, but the burger was drowning in it. The Fries: Good firmness, they definitely hold their shape better than Five Guys but Five Guys' Cajun fries still win on flavor. The Value: I paid about $20 for a burger, fries, and a tip. It feels expensive, but with Five Guys at $18 and a McDonald's Big Arch meal at $14 these days, the price is fairly standard for the current market.

Ordered a single, a double, two drinks and fries. Totally was 34$. Very expensive I feel. Food was good though. I did enjoy the burger. The single was enough. They don't have any toppings for the burger besides cheese, lettuce and their ghost sauce (basically mayo, pickles and maybe tomatoes). They do have packets of ketchup and mustard if you ask. Fries were fresh and you can tell. This was my favorite thing. They were actually very good. I didn't care for the fancy sauce too much though. But the size of the fries are shareable I feel. Overall I would come here again and try other food. But, with the lack of toppings for the price, it would steer me away.

Remember: Bring cash! Used a card, and the cashier had to type it in manually (it was nice of them to do that). Now for the food - We got a few meats--turkey pastrami, corned beef and a "wildcard" (I let the staff pick, and whatever it was it was good). We also got the special spices etc. I do prefer a more of an Italian sandwich on a hard roll, so I'm not sure the soft onion roll is for me. If you like a cold sandwich un-toasted and generally basic with a bit of a twist, you will love this! My husband and I enjoyed the sandwich (split it, and they put mayo on half at my request). It's a charming spot, quality food and I'm glad we tried it. Skip the spicy potato salad. It was bland, sadly.

I had the 2 meats (turkey and turkey pastrami) with everything sans pickles plus love spice on an onion roll. I'm beyond satisfied and it was divine! The price was reasonable for a deli sandwich at $10 before tax and 4% card fee. I usually go for corned beef at the deli, but this was a leaner yet equally tasty option in an attempt to be more health conscious. Needless to say, I'll be back! Thanks, ladies!

They have an extensive menu to include vegetarian options which was nice to see. They also have many local brands to include chips, sodas, and other small local business products (caramelized nuts, baked goods, etc.)! On the topic of local businesses, they also had a board which allowed local owners to post business cards and event alerts, fantastic for drawing the community together. Now, I ordered a Reuben as a lover of corned beef and sauerkraut. It was delicious and sizeable, a fair portion size for the money as well. The chips were also delicious having gone for the salt, pepper, and onion variety. A solid crunch and bursting with flavor. Among the positives I have two negatives, both of which are not adequate enough to lower their star ranking. Firstly, it took around 20-25 minutes to get our food after ordering. I rarely hold timing against a restaurant as having worked in food, I know lunch rush exists and things happen. To mitigate this (for those in the area) I believe they have an online ordering system, which I would recommend utilizing! Secondly, they do not have indoor seating, so it is a very grab and go type establishment. This is counteracted by the multitude of benches around Royal Oak, though it would be nice to have some amount of seating, especially for those with accessibility needs and those waiting on their food. Overall, Oak House Deli is solid and delicious and I will definitely stop by again when I am in the area!

I always say that my teachers are heroes without capes so the theme of this truck was so fitting. Every year, I try to do something extra special for my staff. This year, I booked the Hero Or Villain Food Truck. I was able to select 6 different sandwiches for my staff to choose from and options such as loaded fries & soft drinks. These sandwiches were the BOMB! Freshly made and grilled with such unique options: Blackfire (Steak, bacon, egg, mozz, grilled peppers, onion & drizzled with a spicy sriracha mayo), Thor (Turkey, bacon & Cheddar, mayo), Kingpen (Grilled Chicken, mozzarella & pesto aioli), Captain Planet (Marinated Mushrooms, Grilled Onions, Mozz, Red Pepper & pesto aioli), Deathstroke (Steak, grilled peppers, provolone, onion & mayo), Hawkeye (Turkey, swiss, sauerkraut, pickles, 1000 island dressing). These sandwiches were served on grilled sourdough, marble rye or a hoagie bun. My favorite was Thor but the Hawkeye was equally as delicious. I didn't have a chance to try all of them but everyone was raving about their sandwiches. The two ladies working the food truck were amazing. Serving up 50+ sandwiches in 1 1/2 hours was seamless. I've been told that this food truck travels all over the place. If you are lucky enough to try them, trust me, you will be in sandwich heaven!
