We dined indoors, but outdoor seating is available. The inside retains some of its old timey look; complete with metal steam hot radiators. The room is open; even cavernous. Bright, fresh clean. Loved the fresh wild flowers in tiny table vases! The time of morning was early enough that there was still plenty of seating. Kadie, our bubbly, knowledgeable server took the orders and remembered the additions and deletions my party requested. My companion raved about the fresh off the griddle, large, hot pancake received along with extra butter and REAL maple syrup. Indeed, i tried a bite, and it was light, fluffy and oh so delicious.

Walking into Detroit 75 Kitchen in Madison Heights for a quick lunch, my expectations were high!…read moreFrom a visual standpoint, the food looks simply irresistible on social. Before I even got to the food, the restaurant itself made a great first impression. The property is incredibly well maintained inside and out. There's a spacious outdoor patio for Michigan summer days, along with plenty of indoor seating ranging from communal tables for larger groups to individual booths if you're flying solo. It's a thoughtfully designed space that feels welcoming no matter why you're there. Now, let's talk about the food. I'll admit something that surprised me. I've been to Detroit probably 50 times, and I honestly can't remember ever hearing about a Detroit-style cheesesteak. Judging by the walls covered in awards and accolades, though, it's clearly something they're known for. The sandwich certainly sounds like a winner on paper: ribeye and sirloin, provolone and Swiss cheeses, roasted mushrooms and peppers, caramelized onions, lettuce, tomato, sweet pickled jalapeños, aioli, house-made vinaigrette, all served on a freshly baked sesame roll. I mean... what's not to love? Unfortunately, this is where my experience took a turn. The ingredients themselves are good. The flavors are there. The problem is the execution. The ratios are simply off. The freshly baked roll completely dominates the sandwich, overwhelming everything inside it. The steak gets lost between all that bread, and instead of each bite showcasing the beef, cheese, and vegetables working together, the bread becomes the star--and that's not what you want from a cheesesteak. I do want to give credit where it's due. The portions are generous, and I especially appreciated that they take the time to make their own dipping sauces for the fries. Little details like that don't go unnoticed. There are plenty of positives here, and it's easy to see why Detroit 75 Kitchen has earned such a loyal following. But as someone who takes sandwiches seriously, I think this one is technically flawed. A great sandwich is all about balance, and for me, this one never found it. I genuinely wanted to love it. This sandwich lover just couldn't get behind the way it was built.

I ended up going with two of the chicken parm sandwiches, an order of the baked ziti, a tiramisu cup, and zeppole. Everything was delicious and the portions are very generous. The sandwiches alone have two fried chicken cutlets on them so half of one is more than enough for a full meal, meaning I've got dinner for tomorrow, too! The ziti was also a nice portion and I love their marinara. I was too stuffed to eat the zeppole while they were still warm but they're still excellent later, even when they're cold. I think they use ricotta in them which keeps them soft and pillowy (also another generous portion). It's carryout/delivery only, FYI. Ordering online was a snap as they have their own platform and it took about 15-20 minutes. Ran in and out and it was easy peasy and delicious.

I also really enjoyed the Red Cabbage Slaw. It was a real standout compared to other restaurants' versions. Lots of flavor and great texture. It's Birmingham, so parking isn't great, but if you're doing carryout, you could order through their app and just pull up at the curb and run in. Value is decent as well, only a couple of dollars more than Jersey Mike's, Jimmy John's, but the quality is so much better. It's kind of in a different league, and for the league it's in, the price is spot on with the competition.

They are both huge and well organized. I also like that their omelette selection has all the classics, but there are also options that go beyond the standard fare. Like I love their Bleu omelette, and I'm not sure I've seen anything similar to it at other diners. Also, the hash browns are fantastic and they give you a huge portion of them with your order. I loved the food! What sets Village Grill apart though is their set up and service. I absolutely hate diners where everyone is stacked on top of each other or spots where you have no table space. I like nice, big comfortable booths with ample privacy. Village Grill is awesome about this. Huge booths and if you're trying to get work done, it's an absolutely prime location. Finally, their service is incredible. Absolutely awesome waitresses, coffee filled until your hearts content, and your food comes out quick.
