We were starving and looking for some food at 11:30pm and stumbled upon this place which was open till 12am. We were warmly greeted. It was AMAZING! We ordered the Cherry Cherve burgers with fries and the hot honey BBQ chicken legs. I inquired about gluten free and ordered mine w a gluten free bun which added a few minutes on to the cooking. The food was all amazing! The gluten free bun was wonderful and the burgers were delicious and cooked to perfection! The fries were delicious and seasoned so well. They were not too skinny or too fat; they were just perfect. The ketchup was a smaller plastic squeeze bottle which worked well. I am not a fan of the glass bottles where the ketchup doesn't come out. It's the little things. The legs were yummy. The food was very fresh, cooked well and served piping hot, which in and of itself is amazing late at night 30 minutes before closing. The bartender recommended a pain killer cocktail and it was amazing too!! My husband ordered a 51K beer and said it was an outstanding IPA. And he knows his beer. This place is a hidden gem. Great service, amazing food and cool ambiance. I used the restroom and it was attractively decorated and sparkling clean. We will be back for sure!

Came in on their Wednesday Game Night, with my daughter( I believe they have a live Dj that starts at 9, but we left before that time). The staff was really friendly and inviting. Had fun playing the games provided, and the drinks were perfect! Great taste and strong! I recommend the Hurricane and my daughter enjoyed her mocktail made custom by the bartender based on her preferences :) Didn’t stay for food because it wasn’t a typical kid friendly restaurant although kids are indeed welcome. No kid menu for my daughter and it was very dimly lit inside. This place would be great for a date night, a meet up with friends or a place to stop by for a drink after work. I’ll definitely be returning to try out the food and give a better review

Really cool spot! I loved that there were games and the atmosphere of the bar. I would just take points off because getting out order in took a while.

Found this place on a fluke and loved it. The address on E Fisher Fwy threw me, but it is between Thomas Magee's and the meat market over the bridge and to the south of the main Eastern Market. Owners Connor and David are entire operation, with Connor on the drinks side and David working the food. We started with cherry bbq chips and chervre cheese and moved on to burgers and fries. Both burgers were delicious and loved the buffalo curry fries. I thought the ambiance was perfect, laid back, nice background music, anduted TV's playing pet video station and Bob Ross ;). I was impressed that Connor and Davidade a point of calling us by name - I guess you're only a stranger once! I can see that stopping in for drinks and/or food to or from an event would be ideal. Great find!

If you are looking for food with a flare and reasonable prices, this is your place! We are vegetarian and everything on the menu can be substituted with a vegetarian option, which is fantastic. The flavors are unique and delicious! The owner and chef, is hands on and came out to greet us at our table. The amount of food we received was robust, and we actually had to move to a bigger table to accommodate it. I will definitely be back for more goodies. We had the curry fores, the mushroom dip, the vegetarian chicken sandwich and the vegetarian gorgonzola burger. Oh, and a hot buttered rum cocktail! All of it divine!Vegetarian options: Everything ok the menu can be made with a vegetarian option!

So I really had no idea what to expect at this restaurant- transparently I thought it would be Mexican food! Instead we were greeted with delicious chicken legs, well seasoned fries, and burgers. The chicken was insanely good and a great price for the portion. These aren't rinky dink legs, you'll leave feeling full! The interior is nothing too fancy but there's a plethora of board games to choose from should your group like to play + a full bar for drinks. Service was great and our waiter was very helpful in making suggestions. He let us know some of the apps, drink specials, and sauces will change quarterly so be sure to check in once in a while to see what's new.

Pure perfection. Had the chicken legs tonight and the burger previously and both utterly blew me away. The painkiller drink was amazing as well. Awesome spot.

Went in on a whim and was not disappointed. The food was great and if you like spicy, the Scorpion Bird Nashville sandwich is amazing. The drinks were great and the prices were more than fair. We will definitely be coming
Excellent little place to grab a bite before a show or a drink and munchies afterwords. We tried a cocktail and a mocktail. Both were delicious and I actually think I preferred the latter. Got the mushroom dip and the jerk chowder as an appetizer. The chowder was phenomenal! Loved every second of it! Didn't get pictures of the burgers we ordered, because they were so tasty we devoured them without a second thought. I had the lamb burger and my partner had the mushroom Swiss. My burger, I loved the pineapple slaw on it and my partners burger tasted like mushroom gravy, so good! This place is fantastic if you're in Detroit and want a little dive to hang out at with your friends.

Love me a good hipster bar! They have the absolute kindest staff possible that are always quick to make you laugh. Connor is like the good ole fashioned, movie bartender, there to listen to your problems and turn that frown upside down in an instant! He's also great with making a crazy drink combo idea work! David in the kitchen is a total sweetheart. Unfortunately, he doesn't get up front much with how busy he is, creating his magnificent food concoctions. Just be careful with those curry fries, they don't have milk to cool your tongue down ? Overall, you can tell these two guys love the business they have built and the customers satisfaction is really important to them. I have simply never had better bar service.

The cocktails are beautifully crafted, well balanced and delightfully delicious. The curry fries are perfectly spiced and flavorful. The harissa chicken thigh sandwich and lamb burger blew my date and I away. We can't wait to go back.The atmosphere is friendly and comfortable. Absolutely well worth the trip.This restaurant is a must not miss spot in Eastern Market.
