    Ever played the game "The floor is Lava?" This is the real version. Make it all the way to the bar and you get a free bud light. Yay!!!

    They have good food but they take a million hours to prepare. I've ordered on several occasions and i always had to wait so long.

    I have two nephews that smoke too much. Some of it legally. We tried several times to sit them…read moredown, intervention style, they see through it and don't show up. When I told the family we were going for pizza and subs at a hookah place, the nephews were first in the car. Not only do they have pizza; they have a variety of sandwiches, wraps, quesadillas and a ton of sides. That's not including breakfast which offers even more. The food was actually very good and the service was better. There's a dark, calming laid back feel to the place. Easy to become comfortable, smokes or not. We decided not to intervene, tonight, in public. It is coming soon. In the meantime, this is an absolute wonderful place with the good food and relaxing atmosphere. The huge menu does make it a challenge to order. So many options! 08/25

It was a chilly night, but the plastic was down & they had heaters going. Perfect, cozy temp. Prices are super reasonable. Food, drinks, and hookah all at lowest prices I've seen. Volcano shrimp & hummus were both out of this world. Great service, great value, great fun. So many specialty hookah I want to try. Tons of menu items sound delightful. Def getting the Dubai chocolate cup. It's half the price I've paid anywhere else. Easy to find location, lots of parking, comfy looking booths. Fantastic place. Great job!​​

    Would've been 4/5 stars if the front-of-house didn't get in its own way. We had a reservation and…read morestill waited 30-40 minutes, and I walked past whole empty sections on my way to the bathroom, so I don't know what the holdup was. The confirmation text didn't come through until we were already inside, which might be bad reception, but it almost cost us the table. Then they sat us right across from the back kitchen entrance. Banging, yelling, and an open doorway into the kitchen. Off-putting, especially with better seating clearly open. The food keeps the rating up. I did not expect a wings place, but the smoked wings were my favorite, right amount of crispy with good smoke. The sauce list is long and I couldn't pick a favorite. The ranch tasted house-made and it was amazing. The chikin soho was the other standout. Honey ginger glaze, chili dijon slaw, and pickles that all work together. Misses: the brisket nachos needed fresh guac and actual brisket, since there was barely any. The 6 cheese mac was fine but not worth ordering again. Prices were right for what it is, a bistro concept. It's in Wayne, which surprised me since I didn't know spots like this existed out here. Wide enough menu that I'll be back. Next time I'm speaking up about the seating.

    Really nice spot If you want to come with an after work kind of vibe so keep that in mind. And…read morecan't get crowded but they have a lot of space. I met some friends at the bar and we had a good time and then we moved to a table. The way staff was cool from the bar to the table and they were very attentive. You will come in and there's parking everywhere on the side and the back of the building. I parked all the way in the back of the parking lot and walked up and got greeted immediately when I got to the front. I went to the bar, sat down, and was immediately given menus and water so at least they were on their job when it came to timeliness and customer service. I appreciated that . I really only came for drinks but some friends I was with came for food. That means that I can't rank the food at the end of the day but at the same time it looked really good . We ended up having to move some tables together and it was not an issue to them. They were very nice about it. I thought that was cool that they let us adjust some things since we had more than what we were intended to have as far as people went . The decor is pretty cool because it's based around the theme of cars and car parts. If you know anything about Ford, you know that it's going to be heavily auto-related and that's a really cool vibe. The aesthetics are very good . Overall it was a good experience. I had already eaten so I didn't have any food but I probably would to go back and try some food but as far as vibes go, it was a good selection.

I personally really love the ice strip that they have around the entire bar - it's an area to set your drinks that keeps them icy cold for the whole dining experience. The Happy Hour specials are amazing and the draft selection is always on point! The bartenders are wonderful and provide excellent service any time of day. I'm even more impressed now that the manager/owner replied to my review. And in such timely fashion! Excellent customer care all around. I will be visiting again soon!

    We were around Detroit area looking for a Mediterranean restaurant and found this one in Yelp, so…read morethought I'd be worth giving it a try, but we had NO idea we were about to find one of our new favorite restaurants in the entire U.S. The food was INCREDIBLE!!! We ordered salad, falafels, lentil soup, French fries, rice, chicken, and hummus. The falafel was different from the usual falafel you get elsewhere, It was much softer and had such a delicious, moist texture, now.... they cook the best lentil soup I've ever had in my life!! French fries were cooked perfectly. The chicken breast was also really GOOD!! My husband ordered a full portion of chicken, and he was blown away by how flavorful and tender it was. And the hummus is an absolute MUST. I LOOOVE IT!!!! We ordered way too much because everything looked so good, and at some point we literally had to tell ourselves, "Okay, we need to stop eating." Lol We live in Chicago, and I tbh.... can't think of a Mediterranean restaurant there that compares to this place. Plus service and staff was great, and the aesthetic of the place is beautiful, super chic!

Parking is easy and accessible. I ordered a Mozzarella Cheese Sticks appetizer, and it was very good. The large, thick, square type with a lot of cheese, 6. Yum. My fiancee loved her frozen Rasberry Lemonade. They also offer pita, and a beautiful, huge crock of hummus. I got the Butchers Burger and it was delicious! Medium, good beef, juicy, bun substantial but not wet, good amount of cheese, good bun to beef ratio, I have no complaints, it went in my belly. The fries are also amazing. Angenerous portion, seasoned just right, crisp on the outside, soft on the inside. My fiancee got the 4 skewer meal which in hindsight, is probably for 2 people. She was crazy about the beef and chicken skewers, and also enjoyed spicy ground beef and sojuk. It came with rice, charred onion, and tomato, and 2 sides. Staff is helpful and friendly. A delicious and very well run establishment.

I decided to try the signature Black Label Burger and the house made potato chips. I was disappointed in both. The burger was dry and not prepared to my request or liking and the potato chips had no flavor or seasoning. I should have went with the Sunday Brunch with several offerings and made-to-order omelettes. Sunday Brunch is until 2pm which is also an available on holidays. It includes made-to-order crepes and omelettes, fruit, French toast, pancakes, chicken, eggs, dessert bar plus condiments for Bloody Mary's and Mimosas. They offer dine-in only with a purchase of a beverage for their $7 Happy Hour and Drink specials. This is available Monday - Friday 3pm-6pm. Although I was the only one waiting at the unstaffed hostess station, it took some time for my acknowledgment by a staff member to offer me seating in a booth. Seating options are traditional tables, booths, bar and patio. The service was okay once I was seated. Feliberto was a good server and kept my unsweetened tea refills coming. The ambiance in the restaurant was pleasant and a family-friendly atmosphere.
