    Cosmic Fries
    Andrea G.

    Hey you! Are you looking for a friendly, sci-fi inspire, pet friendly, and welcoming vegan restaurant. Look no further than Spacecat V-Stro. I have been coming to this establishment for years now and I always feel welcomed when I enter the door. Today we checked out the cosmic fries along with their grilled cheese at the day and vegan style chicken fingers. I have to note that this establishment is completely vegan which is perfect if you're looking for some options in the area. Now I know you're wondering hey is there parking absolutely there's parking paid in front of the establishment, and there is parking garage. And the entrance is filled with cute animal photos.

    The food, service, and overall vibe of this restaurant was so fun! The servers were so kind and friendly, answering every questions and making good recommendations. The food was VERY good, and the vegan treats were also so good. My family enjoyed every dish we ate (even picky eaters can enjoy)!

    Best Spuds Forever + sweet potatoes

    This place is so cute! Very small, like a diner but has plenty of seating, including a few booths and high tops. I have a ton of food allergies which makes me lean toward more plant based so I was super excited to try out Spacecat V-stro since they are fully vegan and make all their proteins in house!! My friend and I both got one of the specials which was the Best Spuds Forever. It was absolutely delicious. It came with roasted sweet potatoes which were fantastic. I'll be trying to recreate the seasoning they put on them at home!

    First time visiting!! This place is cute and sits on the street with multiple restaurants. The service was great. We placed the order and waited vs ordering online. It took about 15 mins and it was fresh. My husband said the food was good, but wishes he would have went with his first choice of the chicken and waffle sandwich. He did mention the greens could have been a tad bit seasoned more, but overall it was still tasty! The salted chocolate chip cookie....AMAAAAAZZZZIIIIINNG!! I wish we would've bought some back with us! If the desserts taste anything like this cookie, then I know it's good! They have a nice variety of vegan food and the website spells everything out for you especially if it's not vegan. The only reason I am giving it 4 stars is because of the parking situation. I didn't see a garage near by and we were lucky to find a spot I front of the building, but I can imagine parking being an issue. I'm sure we will be back when we visit home again!

    This place is fantastic! I spotted it last weekend when I was at Bobcat Bonnie's and saw it across the way. I told a bunch of friends and we came here for brunch the very next weekend. This is an adorable space with super cute decor. The people working here were all very friendly and helpful. There were so many interesting dishes to try we did not know what to order there were too many things we wanted to try. I got their cheese sticks since I had seen them online here, on Yelp, and they looked really good. They were incredible! So good and hot and crunchy. Funny enough, they reminded me of my favorite cheese on a stick at Cedar Point in the best way possible. I could see getting them every time. I look some home for the family to try and they loved them too. Their magic spacecat sauce was also amazing. It tasted like a spicy version of a Big Mac or other fast food burger sauce. So good, you can taste the spices, the mustard, probably a must order on the side every time you visit. They sell it as well. It would be worth purchasing the bottle for home. I also tried their special of the day jalapeño biscuit sandwich. I believe it had scrambled tofu that looked and tasted like yummy eggs, a homemade sausage patty which was delicious, I believe vegan cheese and dill ranch. It was a tall thick sammy. So good and flavorful! I also took some home for the family and they also really enjoyed it. I am sure they would return with me to order more. They also sell cookies and other pastries. They mentioned they were recognized by PETA for their cookies and other customers around were eating them and said they were good. I did not have room but maybe next time. I enjoyed the cute diner atmosphere and this has to be one of the most unique and delicious vegetarian restaurants I have visited in a very long time.

    Always tasty, freshly made, and worth every penny. This is quality comfort food without the side of ethical dilemma. Get your tasty breakfast bomb that has a spicy kick in the biscuit! I usually get that or the red dwarf burger. Really, you can't go wrong here. I've never had a meal here that wasn't tasty. The carrot b*c*n is thinly sliced carrots marinated in tasty sauce. You won't even miss the real bacon. Service is always friendly and the interior is super cute.

    Super nova Cosmic Fries.

    Staff were very friendly and attentive. We went at 10 AM and there was only 1 more table there. I've been told that place gets extremely busy and food takes long. Our wait for food was about 20-25 minutes. Everything is made from scratch and made to order. The quality of food was very fresh. Flavors were really good. Textures in the food were great. Presentation wise it was pleasing to look at. The menu changes weekly, so do not get hooked on one thing for too long. As the owner has versatility in menu choices, and always picks great weekly specials. The restaurant overall is kind of tight squeezed, there is ample seating though. Clean atmosphere, and there is really nice decor. You can tell the owners put a lot of love into this place. Sadly they close at 3 PM and we're not always able to catch them before they close. However It's definitely worth the drive!

    This place looks and feels really cool. I however will not return. I didn't receive much of the lukewarm chowder in my cup but that's OK because it was not to my liking. I moved on to my Cosmic Fries because come on! Potato wedges, sea salt, cheese sauce, yes please! Well no actually, someone forgot the salt altogether. Trying to make it flavorful with the cheese sauce which is nice but ran out 5 wedges in. Mama said there would be days like this...

    Tostada special with cool side salad

    I'm a regular at this place for a reason! My partner and I were looking for a good breakfast / lunch joint that had options for both of us because I'm gluten free and he is lactose intolerant. All the servers are great and Coco is especially knowledgeable about the food and possible modifications to certain dishes (try the quesadilla with Burmese tofu added! So good!). The specials are always interesting and my partner is never disappointed by the cookie of the week. Their batch brew coffee is Hyperion and better than your average diner joe. We've also never had issues getting a table, which is a huge plus considering the weekend brunch scene around Ferndale. I've never had a bad meal here and suggest you check it out even if you're not vegetarian- and get the cheeze sauce on the cosmic fries when you do!

    Chickpea Nuggets and grill cheese, small plate.
    India T.

    Everything is vegan except 1 thing. I love that. The waiter was super nice and very informative. Everything is made in-house. They have weekly specials, and they sounded pretty good. But I missed nachos, they were delicious!! I'll be back for more of that. Also, I grabbed a small plate, half size grilled cheese (very buttery taste but good) with chickpea nuggets (ok) + magic sauce (good). Then I tried my friends cheeseburger burrito, weird item, lettuce welded, but my friend enjoyed and only stopped eating from meaning full.

The people working here were so friendly and personable with literally everyone that walked in the door. The service was top notch. It is also the most adorable place giving vibes of Lamy's food counter at Henry Ford Museum. I loved all of the options on the menu and it was so hard just picking a couple items to try. We had chicken tacos. They were so good and so fresh, I loved the sauce on top. Honestly, I am not sure if it was cheese or a sour cream type mixture, but it was creamy and flavorful. I also had the torta which was absolutely incredible. It had the same chicken as the taco. The chicken was slow cooked or stewed and shredded and was so flavorful, like a homecooked chef's kiss. The bread was fresh. I loved the sauce poured over it, making it a dipped and soaked sandwich. The carrots and cilantro, sliced radishes and sliced fresh jalapenos added a level of crunch, freshness and deeper flavor profile. I would want to get this every time. We also tried their delicious "curly" fries, which were like julienned shoestring fries fired fresh. It seemed like every dish was made fresh and right in front of you. So worth it, plus the prices are great. I would love to try their fried chicken plate, their breakfast sandwiches, and their other desserts. We talked to the man behind the counter who seemed like maybe a manager. He gave us their famous chocolate chip cookie to try. It was fresh baked and delicious. I would love to take home more of those. It looked so simple but was better than many bakeries specializing in cookies alone. He also gave us an second order of fries to take home with my leftovers, just top notch kindness and service. This man told us that OWL owns other restaurants and we would probably like them. I am open to trying more of their group but I do want to return here. This is one of those diners you would find being profiled for best kept secret or gourmet home cooked foods under the guise of fast food.

I used to live nearby about 25 years ago and remember coming to a diner in this area for breakfast back then. Fast forward to today--this isn't the same place, but wow, it's absolutely amazing. Right away I loved the vibe. The chalkboards with handwritten menu items and daily specials on the walls give the place so much character and charm. It feels welcoming, classic, and cool all at the same time. The customer service was excellent from start to finish--friendly, attentive, and genuinely welcoming. I ordered the country breakfast, which came with biscuits and gravy, eggs, toast, potatoes, and sausage--everything was spot on. I'm usually not a big hash browns person, so I really appreciated that they offer an alternative to the shredded style. I went with the cubed breakfast potatoes (not sure what they officially call them), and they were so much better--crispy, flavorful, and cooked perfectly. Between the food, the service, and the overall atmosphere, this place completely won me over. I already know I'll be back next weekend. Oak Diner has a really, really good vibe, and I'm glad I rediscovered breakfast here. Highly recommend.

It ended up being the biggest waste of time and money for a meal that I could remember. First, the positives. The people were very friendly. Every employee we spoke to was pleasant and helpful. And the atmosphere was nice and the place was beautiful in its own way. But pleasant employees and attractive ambiance will only go so far if the food isn't good. The only part of the meal I thought was good was the macaroni and cheese, which was comparable to Popeye's. It wasn't great, but was the best part of the meal. My wife didn't want to finish hers because she didn't like it. As for the mashed potatoes, I could tell they had been made with fresh potatoes because I did find a lump or two, but this place has the distinction of being the only place I've ever been that was able to get real potatoes to taste like instant potatoes. You could not taste ANY butter or cream in them. The beef LOOKED amazing but stopped at looks. Nothing I ate was memorable in a good way. Nothing I ate made me want to return. And NOTHING we ate was worth the $60 we paid for just the two of us.

Everything meshed together perfectly.

    I'm going to preface this by saying that I think I might just not be an Italian Beef kinda gal…read more Despite living in Chicago for a full decade I embarrassingly never had one before, but I was near Matt & Mo's and saw the rave reviews and had to give it a try. Now, objectively I can say it's very good. The portions are huge, the meat is flavorful and juicy, the peppers were good. There's just some herb or something mixed in there in the marinade/aus jus, that I just don't think I like (I think it might be fennel? Something kind of licorice-y that I don't jive with). But if you're an Italian beef fan, or enjoy that flavor profile, you're gonna love it! Now, what I did love was everything else! The fried ravioli? Delicious! The french fries? So good! And a very generous portion of both! Service was also VERY friendly and everything was prepared quite quickly! It's a walk up window but there are some picnic tables for dining there, though I chose to eat in my car before making my way back home. I would 100% come back by and go for perhaps a sausage or a coney dog next time, definitely stick with orders of those ravioli and fries, too!
