Gabriella was our waitress. She did an exceptional job bringing our drinks. Everything was going very well for us until Gabriella brought our bills and we discovered we were being charged a gratuity for her services. 20% per customer. Well her bad should have let us tip, would have received much more. Sorry no photos.

Walked in with a group of old college buddies, sat down at the bar and was never greeted. Sat there for 10mins before the bartender walked up. She walked passed us and made eye contact with us during those 10mins, however she continued to stand around and eat her food while her pregnant co-worker followed suit. Sadly, we ended up just walking out. She tried to catch us at the door, but we just told her "no thank you, we're gonna try somewhere else." My friends were not from Detroit and was expecting better service than they received. Never got a chance to even look at a menu. Would not recommend this place.

Stopped in after an event at LCA. Loved the vibe, service was great too! We ordered some food which was amazing. Save yourself from a long wait in traffic after an event by making a pit stop in here. We will definitely be back!

Its great but super busy every time there is game, which is expected, if you get a table there is a wait of 20 mins or more, but the staff is really nice, the food is OK in the sense it's a sports bar, great prices for downtown great pre game bar!

We were really excited to try this place, but left disappointed. Walked and it was as busy as we had anticipated since it was game day, which was great. Hostess was snotty no smile looked like she didn't want to be there. We had to wait for a table to be cleaned off - no worries about that but then when she felt she needed to clear off 6 other tables and left us standing there, not professional. After being seated - after the game started so there weren't a lot of people - still waited 7 mins for a server to acknowledge us. Again someone not pleasant, stand offish like we were a bother. We ordered drinks and not all us got ours, she was walking by and we said excuse me we are missing a beer and water, her comment was I am dealing with another tables problem I'll get it in a minute. We all looked at each other and we almost decided to leave. We ordered food (nachos, burgers and spin dip) most of that was decent, onion rings were HORRIBLE. For 2 apps, 2 burgers, 1 beer, 2 cocktails and 1 pop - $155... I was shocked, they automatically add 20% gratuity on the bill, like WTH!!! No wonder no one cares about customer service your automatically paying them anyway. I will NEVER go back!
