Always friendly service and very quick to order. Great spot for a beer, the food can be hit or miss. I've had times where it's been great, times where my chicken was cold and super fatty , so it's a hit or miss but will be back

First time here at The Dirty Bird. There's a parking lot across the street so that's already a plus. The place has a very live vibe. There's TV to watch sports/news. There's outside seating if you want to feel Jackson, Michigan breeze :). Food: the food was good but nothing different that I've had somewhere else. A lot of fried and finger foods. The chicken was cooked well. Super crispy outside and tender inside. I ordered some fried shrimp it was not what I expected, looked like something from a fast food restaurant (they can do better), however the sauce they added was made it much better. Loved the pretzel. Drinks: they have lots to choose from so that's a plus if that's what you came for! Service/Staff: very, very friendly. I love when staff makes you feel welcomed. Our waitress was super friendly I wish I got her name. But you may not see her when you come anyway because she is moving :). Anyway, overall experience is 3.5; 3 for the food and 5 for the service.

I was over charged on my order and denied a refund for the over charge. I will not go back.

It's all chicken and I've had better. The price is good and the food is ok. It's not a Popeyes chicken sandwich but it's better than KFC

Food was good. Service was good. The only problem was the lack if thick women and my friend kept caressing me with his foot.

This place was very unexpected for the description of pub and pizzeria…read more The atmosphere and ambience is a vibe as soon as you open the door very upscale, clean and inviting. Friendly staff, upbeat, lots of smiles. Server was great she was from Chicago one of my favorite cities. The food is great, cannot say enough about the chicken bacon ranch calzone it's amazing one of the best I've ever eaten. Also have tried the Ruben sandwich with fries. Sandwich was tasty but Extremely small portion for the price and the fries are skinny so eat them fast or they'll get cold quick. Been back 3 times. Placed a to go order on the way home from Ann Arbor and once again it did not disappoint. It was lunchtime on a Wednesday and they were packed with a 25 minute wait time, so glad I had placed a to go order, but that just goes to show you how well they are doing I highly recommend checking them out, I'm definitely gonna mane my way around

I don't say this lightly, because I've been to a lot of pizza places in my life, but this spot…read moreeasily lands in my top three. Top. Three. The place itself is newer, which you can immediately tell from the clean, modern décor and the fact that it doesn't feel like it's been operating unchanged since 1994. It's a great spot to come with friends or family, or to grab a seat and catch a game. In our case, we were taking clients out to eat, and they chose this place, which instantly earned them major points. Excellent pick. Naturally, we ordered appetizers, because skipping apps would be irresponsible. The artichoke and spinach dip was rich, creamy, and dangerously good, and the garlic knots were next-level tasty. Warm, garlicky, and impossible to stop eating. Zero regrets. For the main event, we ordered two pizzas: one Detroit-style (Red Top) and one regular pizza. And wow. Just... wow. The cheese pull on these beauties was absolutely ridiculous, the kind that deserves a slow-motion video. The pizza itself was phenomenal. The crust was crispy yet perfectly chewy, the cheese was hot, melty, and gloriously stringy, and the sauce actually had flavor (which shouldn't be rare, but somehow is). To top it all off, our server was fantastic. Super friendly, genuinely funny, and great with everyone at the table, which always makes the experience even better. Bottom line: incredible pizza, great vibes, awesome service. I would recommend this place to anyone without hesitation. It will not disappoint... unless you hate good pizza, in which case, this place is not for you.

The cheeseburger was incredible, perfectly cooked, and I don't know what kind of buns they use but they're definitely my favorite now. I'm thinking we should have gotten two pizzas cause not only did he devour a few pieces but I helped finish it and couldn't stop eating cause it was so good! The staff was very personable and kind. Especially Brooke and Maddy, they were so sweet and chatted with my son about his Pokemon and legos. We left very full and happy with our experience.

I scoured the web for the best sounding wrap I could find and finally set my sights on Grand River Brewery. I ordered a Santa Fe wrap to-go, got there before it was even ready and was home to eat it within 5 minutes. To my dismay they had left the spicy ranch off the wrap. It was dry and unpleasant and that was an unfortunate tell of what was to come. It was accompanied by an odd tasting pickle, which particularly hurt my heart because I am a woman who loves a good pickle. This next part was especially jarring because the ambiance of the restaurant really seemed like they would have good fries, I'm sure they would be good fresh, but the ones I found inside my to-go box were not that. Sad, hard, dry fries that tasted and felt like they had been sitting out for hours. Truly disappointing. In summary, twas certainly a mistake to treat myself to this TWENTY ONE dollar meal that didn't even include a drink...21 dollars for a horrible wrap, horrible fries and a weird pickle. For that price I was really expecting the best wrap I've ever had, I could not have been more let down. My Venmo is grace-shoemaker- if you're feeling sympathetic to my experience. Thanks for tuning into my blog.
