Aldo Nava: Long wait on Fridays after work but worth every minute.. Baby rack ribs and pulled pork combo are a must get! side with mac n' cheese and waffle fries. Good beer selection too.
Hugo Echávarri: Baby back ribs, pulled pork, Mac and cheese and waffle fries. Mix the NC and apple sauce with your ribs. Best BBQ in Detroit! Be ready to wait about an hour to get a table, but it's worth it
Mimi: The brisket is delicious!! Goes well with either (or all) mac and cheese, waffle fries, coleslaw, and/or cornbread.

Misterarthur Misterarthur: The greatest. Among other things, when you call in your order, they wait until you get there to make the fries, so they're nice and crispy
Jennifer B.: Pulled pork bbq, waffles fries, and MACARONI AND CHEESE! You'll be scraping every last bite out of the pan. 😋🍴
Lori Jackson: Baby Back Ribs, Wings, Mac and Cheese, sweet potatoes, side salad and fries with cheese are the office favorites

Detavio Samuels: definitely get to roast any weekday you can between 4:30-6:30p. the roast burger ($12) is only $3 and it's spectacular. you can eat and drink well for about $12 (burger, fries, and a few drinks). Read more.
Leslie Pardo: Get the Roast French Fries seasoned with Rosemay
Donna S: brussel sprouts, mashed pots and fries are standout sides. skip the filet with bernaise, go with olive oil and sea salt. porterhouse for two is perfect for three carnivores

Rhona Mays: Best Coney and chili cheese fries! Voted #1 Coney by food network and the travel channel!

Zahrah Fadel: Great friendly service and bumpin' dining room. Fries and Brussels sprouts were on point! Get a sandwich or hash, skip the salads.
Mimi: Eggs Benedict and their large quantities of mimosas. And them truffle fries... MMM.
A M: Try the duck dishes (duck bop hash or duck reuben), you won't be sorry! Also, the topped fries (bacon parm truffle or spicy korean) are to die for. That truffle mayo is everything!!!
