Whiskey Sux is a cheap bar dressed up in pretend fancy clothes. From the moment we walked into the mostly empty establishment something felt off. The hostess seemed annoyed to have to sit someone at the place. In the entrance they had some demo desserts, there were more flies flying around them than there were people at tables. We shrugged the hostess off, just a teen girl being a teen girl--no biggie. The crime against whiskey/humanity was our drinks. We ordered two old fashioned's...because we were at a whiskey bar. Even asked for an upgrade on the whiskey over the well whiskey. To our horror the waitress brought us two drinks that you might get at a crowded nightclub. You know which I mean. You know when you order a drink at a bar when there are 20-40 people all waiting for a drink and the bartender is just whipping out drinks and dumping ice in them to fill the cup. That's the type of drink we got. It was all regular ice. The kind of ice that dilutes your drink, not the ice block you expect in an old fashioned. When we let the waitress know that the drink tasted something like a whiskey flavored Buble or Lecroix she took it to the bartender. He said only the "smoked old fashioned" get the nice ice. Because they don't want to run out. Run out of frozen water.. at a whiskey bar....Mind you there was two people outside and maybe two tables inside at 7PM on a Sunday. Anyways we declined to order food and went across the street to Sidecar and ordered and old fashioned where apparently they aren't experiencing a frozen water shortage. The picture below is from Sidecar. Point of the story, more affordable bar across the street, better food, better staff, better drinks. read more

Went here for drinks a few times they were pretty good and decently priced, they also have a patio for summertime which is nice. Got a burger and the buffalo chicken dip, burger was just okay nothing special, the dip was great. Enjoy coming here though with friends on a weekend! Would recommend read more

The Whiskey Six - Buffalo chicken dip - New American Near Me - Grosse Pointe, Michigan

Thought I would try something new so I got one of their specialty burgers, absolutely terrible. Meat was gamey & unseasoned. No specialty bun, when I cut my burger in half the bun fell into pieces as if it was old. The burger as a whole was tasteless. Completely underwhelmed and disappointed. Fries were straight from McDonalds which is ofc always tasty but I will just use my McDonald's app and get them on free fry Friday. There's no way they're getting returning customers, I believe the customers you may see must be all new comers. Save your money, staff was very nice though! read more

Terrible customer service. I was sitting at their outdoor patio. I had a full lemondrop martini and a bee flew in it while the waitress was standing right by me. She just stood there and didn't do anything so i stood up and dumped the drink over the railing then asked her to bring me another drink. She came back and said the manager said I would have to pay for another drink because I chose to sit outside. That is a very poor management decision. I'm pretty sure any other restaurant would have brought me another drink no charge. They've lost some customers now as i won't go back there- when it would have been negligible cost to them to comp me a new drink and foster customer good will instead of the opposite. read more

I reserved on OT early last week for 3 on Saturday @ 4:30. I prepped my order and was very excited to enjoy dinner, until the 2nd bite of my Fig &Pig Pizza included A LING BLONDE HAIR in the cheese pull in MY MOUTH. I instantly went outside from nauseation after the server physically TOOK the HAIR from MY FINGERS...... THANKS SO VERY MUCH FOR TAKING THE PIZZA OFF OF MY BILL.....SMH SO DISRESPECTFUL of MANAGEMENT to not come to our table and think A HAIR in ANY CUSTOMERS MOUTH was ONLY WORTH $14.00.....but I'm just A 52 year old ETHNIC WOMAN with 10 years of PROFESSIONAL Fine Dinning work history in Food & Beverage,25 years total.....this was handled so unprofessionally. read more

I enjoyed the outdoor ambience here and the service was pretty nice overall as well. I really loved the wedge salad and the chicken In my fettuccine was so fresh. It's a nice little spot, and for 10 people, we got the food pretty quickly. read more

The service, food, and ambience was perfect for our group of 11. Effectively serving a large table is not always easy, but they did an amazing job. read more

The food was great and atmosphere was nice. The food also came really quickly and the service was amazing.

Pretty underwhelming! Ordered the carbonara, not much flavor adding salt, pepper and a generous amount of parmigiano Reggiano helped. The amount of Pancetta (see picture) was ridiculously small. My bad I didn't notice it was rigatoni, not my favorite, but whatever. Additionally no bread, side salad or soup. Price was $16 so not bad. But overall like I said before underwhelming. Service was good. read more

The Whiskey Six - The "pancetta" largest piece is all fat - New American Near Me - Grosse Pointe, Michigan

Atmosphere is nice, but the food is awful. Had a barely edible chicken Caesar wrap that had processed chicken slices and zero taste. Reminded me of one of those wraps you get from a vending machine. Asked for a side of Caesar dressing to give it some flavor and that was an extra dollar. Husband said his food tasted like it came from a meal kit. Wine was OK but both glasses smelled like mildew. Not here to bash this place, but I don't get how they can miss the mark that much on the food when the atmosphere and outside area is so nice. If you go here, don't eat here! Unfortunately it was one of the few restaurants open on Mother's Day and that was the meal I had to celebrate the day. Ugh. read more

We had a lovely dinner on the patio at whiskey six on Saturday night! There was even live music inside that spilled out onto the patio. Great food, great vibe! read more

There's something wrong with those folks. The kitchen staff and food seems to be okay. I think the management is mentally inefficient . There was an inquiry concerning a business project that was pitched to them,and management presented themselves as fickle and I sensed an air of racial bias . I try to avoid this place and keep my money in my pocket because of an air of contempt ,I'm so glad that I don't have to work there or eat there . read more

Tried Whiskey Six for the first time since the new management took over. I had the Jambalaya, which was a special. It was good but the portion was fairly small for $20. My wife had the Octopus, which was very good except it game with instant mashed potatoes. Our server was very good and we've always enjoyed the ambiance. If you're going or charge premium prices, you shouldn't be serving instant potatoes. At this price point, they need to up their game. They have a great bar and this place should be packed. Hopefully they find their groove soon. read more

The Whiskey Six - people sitting at tables in a restaurant - New American Near Me - Grosse Pointe, Michigan

Its just so average. This place has some of the most potential in all of grosse pointe. Great bar area, live music, great wood interior with a fun pub vibe. Looking at it on paper it should crush, but unfortunately it falls flat everytime. There is no energy and no soul in there and the ambiance is just so meh. Service average, food is average, and drinks are bad. Ordered a draft beer and it was brought out to me flat as hell. On top of this, it obviously came from an old tap and had crustys floating around in it that had come from an old tap line. Any good bartender would not serve that beer. I did not drink it and was never asked about it. I tried to say something when she gave it to me but she ignored me. Unfortunately, this place needs new management, they need a new kitchen and they new marketing because they need bodies inside in order to not have problems like old stale beer because nobody is there to drink it! Step up or get out and let someone create something great with this great spot. read more

We went to sit on the patio with friends. 3 of us arrived about 10 minutes prior, informed our server we needed an additional chair and there would be 6 of us. The 3 original people were given waters even though we had said more were on the way, they never ended up bringing any for them. The drinks were not bad. Service was super super slow and we decided to just get the 1 round and go next door for sliders instead of stay there longer. We asked to split the bill and the server said it would take her a minute, we said ok and then she responded back... "and I'd have to go inside and it's not easy." We said ok.... she then said it would just be easier to do it on one check and basically refused to split the bill for us. We ended up just using a p2p mobile payment app to figure the bill out. It was kind of awkward how she just refused. I didn't notice on the menu it saying bills couldn't be split. All in all, the experience wasn't GREAT, I'd be willing to go back as it's local, but I'd not be rushing back soon with other options in the neighborhood. read more

First time here for me. We had food and drinks at the bar. My buddy had the Stir fry & he loved it. It did look delicious but he wasn't sharing. I went chicken lettuce wraps. It was good, but not very much chicken:( Loy's of lettuce & sauce though... Bartender was great & I dug the ambiance. Place is huge, done well with an old fashioned car, and a bootlegger's warehouse motif. I will absolutely go back, probably not for the lettuce sauce with a bit of chicken though;) read more

The service was great, the ambiance is very nice but the food left sooo much to be desired. We did happy hour the drinks were terrible the chicken wings are the drop breaded wings that are entirely too salty. Lastly the cash vs credit card totals on the bill. read more

I feel robbed. It's actually insulting how they cheat people out of good food for the prices they charge. Ordered Chicken Florentine- menu says "topped with spinach, Parmesan and a lemon butter sauce"- none of this happened. I got melted cheese on my chicken and that's all. The server (extremely nice) took it back and I ordered chicken Milanese. Menu says "topped with white wine cream sauce and amogio sauce" two chicken cutlets and they give a teaspoon of both sauces. read more

Nice to have live music though artists talent may be questionable at times. Regular bar food nothing to brag about. Quick service and staff was friendly read more

Fun drinks. Great food. Loved the music. I always love hanging out at the 6 when I am in town.

Whiskey six had always been a good place to go before Covid so I was interested to try it now. It was pretty average. The saganaki was sooo good! The pizza was pretty good too. Our server was very kind and funny. The restaurant is decorated pretty cool as well. read more

I've been to Whiskey Six a couple times, but most recently on a weeknight, as a date. We sat inside, which I've not done before. The interior is very nice; lots of wood, high ceilings, and there's an old car on display. They have a pretty good menu. The prices are fair, and there's something for everyone really. We ordered the Brussels sprouts and the deviled eggs for appetizers. I'm not much for deviled eggs, but they were good. The Brussels sprouts were good, though for me I felt like there was a too much balsamic vinegar and not enough of the other ingredients to balance it out. For our entrees, we both ordered the pub steak, medium rare. The cook on the steak was good, definitely what we were looking for. The only thing is I felt like it was tough, and that there wasn't any seasoning on the steak itself. The toppings of mushrooms and onions were delicious. The sides that came with it were asparagus and roasted potatoes. The asparagus were cooked nicely but had zero seasoning. The roasted potatoes on the other hand were fabulous. They were crispy on the outside and soft on the inside, buttery and delicious. Overall, the seasoning on the food in general is why I rated a 3 instead of a 4. The service was great. Our waitress was extremely friendly and kind, made sure to refill our drinks and checked on us to make sure we were happy. In short, I would return again. read more

We came here for a birthday party. We needed a place that would accommodate 18 people and this place was perfect. Our server did a great job and even let us have up to 8 different credit cards to split the bill which was a concern for our group. We ordered the pizza which was delicious. Some other things in our group that people ordered were the following: saganacki, tacos, butter and bread board, Brussels, and pasta. We also had a few kids with us and they had plenty of kids meals to choose from. read more

Can't say enough about this place. The chef is solid. We have taken people to Whiskey Six who have ordered things we never would, and they have raved about it. Their calamari is actually their own creation; I've not had any calamari like at Whiskey Six anywhere else; it's sticky and sweet and just good not overcome with breading. So many restaurants serve calamari that look like they were sourced from the same foodservice place, but theirs is their own. Their Brussel sprouts are heavenly. Done to perfection and full of taste. So, we like to eat food that is healthy and also a treat to eat done by a knowledgeable and talented chef. Which is why we eat here. read more

Good not great. This place is missing something and I don't know what. The restaurant is named for both Prohibition-era six cylinder cars (aka: whiskey sixes that transported booze) and also we were told there are 6 co-owners of the restaurant. Pros - Polite waitstaff - High ceilings - Large outdoor patio - 1928 Studebaker car sitting in loft - Over 200 whiskies Cons - Burger was dry not juicy - Too many yellowjackets on the patio - Cocktails average about $12-$15 and they're small - The restaurant is large but bland, it needs something. It's definitely missing something, some key element, don't know what though read more

The worst bar. Moscow Mules on special for $4 on happy hour. I ask the bartender if I can substitute whiskey for vodka for this price. He says, "Yes." I get the bill for $10 per Mule. I question him and he says different price for whiskey. I tell him that's not what he said. He will not change the bill. I will never return to the Whiskey 6 - horrible experience! read more

My wife and I came here when I wasn't busy at all, and were seated at a table. I noticed that there seemed to be only two people working - hostess and the bartender - and after several minutes nobody came to take our order. We noticed another table of people also looking around, hoping someone would notice them. I figured we'd move to where the workers were: we went to the bar, and were waited on within minutes. We started with massive soft pretzels that came with an excellent beer cheese. This is a really bad day to start a new diet! I decided on mahi-mahi fish tacos, which were grilled. Healthy, and the taste was good, but the fish was a bit dry. Some salsa or other sauce would have helped. My wife got the salmon...also excellent. Having to move to the bar to get service is ridiculous, of course. Fortunately, the food was good enough that we'll be back again anyway. EDIT: second time here was almost deserted, so we ate at the bar again. As with the last time, service was friendly and attentive. This time, I got a mushroom Swiss burger, which was well seasoned (a rarity in my experience) and beefy. The waffle fries were excellent, too. I did see a family sit at a table, and they were waited on after a reasonable amount of time. It must depend on who's working. But, the food is so good that we'll be back. read more

This place is a phenomenal. If you are a whiskey drinker and a classy spots fan then this is your place. The establishment has beautiful open floor wooden concept. The Bar is a full wrap around with more than plenty of seats and TVs as far as the eyes can see lol. My bartender TJ was awesome and service was amazing (side note, he knows alot about fantasy football). My partner and I ordered a pan pizza to share which absolutely did not disappoint and was fluffy and NOT flat pizza. I ordered manny different whiskeys but I must say I had to order an "Old Fashion" and "Manhattan". The Old Fashion I can say was top notch poured perfectly and I can say the same for the Manhattan. The pricing was very reasonable and I cannot complain. All that drinking caused me to break the seal and use the restroom which was VERY clean. There is not enough great things I can say about this place; I am coming to visit every-time when I am in the neighborhood. P.S. There is plenty of parking read more

New owners. That's the only reason I went in. Four of us. Lettuce wraps were ridiculous. It was probably $.75 worth of food for $14. French fries were soaked in grease. Did not care for meal at all. Service was very friendly as was all the wait staff. Atmosphere was like a loud sports bar. I will not be going back. read more

I ordered the drink special Espresso Martini. The waitperson kept saying it was being prepared and that it was pre-prepared and they were making a new batch. My drink did not show up until AFTER our appetizer and AFTER my burger arrived. And after all that time, the glass had lipstick on it! How hard is it for a bartender to make a drink? Or to clean a glass? My wife's Caesar Salad was good and the salmon was good (though overpowered by the glazing). The bun of my burger was dry, like from the days old bread discount section at Kroger. And I was charged $3 for about 15 French fries. Between my wife and I, we had two martinis, a burger and an entree and a saganaki appetizer and the bill including tip was over $100. Utterly unjustifiable! Mike's on the Water or Butter Run or Village Grille are better food, better portions and better value. read more

The drinks here are awesome and so is the food. Friendly staff and fast service, definitely worth checking out!

The last time we went the food and service were excellent. Always a clean and cheery environment! We will be back.

Came in late at night with a friend to watch the hockey playoffs as well as our local (in California) university baseball team play in the college World Series a few weeks ago and enjoyed our time here. Our server/bartenders whose name we did not get, was pleasant and let us try some different beers to see which ones we'd might like. We got several orders of beers and mixed drinks as well as an order to loaded fries, which were pretty good! A little bit on the pricier side, but given the neighborhood, it's not a surprise. Everything seemed cleaned (the bathrooms most importantly), and the lay out of this place is classy. The TVs around the bar were in perfect sight, and we were glad to come here. Fortunately for us, we did not experience the unfortunate issues that others in different reviews have stated. read more
