The food is delicious and portions are generous. A few of our favorites are the country omelette, breakfast burrito, cinnamon pancakes and chicken Greek salad. 5 stars ⭐️”

“I have been going there since before I could walk. This is the gold standard for coneys as far as I'm concerned. I am sad that you can't dine in these days, but I'm happy to get it to go. Speaking of, the coneys travel very well. Wrapped in wax paper! So easy to reheat if you've got a long way to go. Family owned, family visited. Three generations of my family have gone there, should I have a little one we'll make it four!

Best coney in the state!”

“If you’re into Mexican food then this is the place for you . Absolutely amazing food for a more than fair price all the lady’s in Sheila’s are very nice and I couldn’t recommend going more than.my only complaint is that I only get to go on my lunch break. Too bad I didn’t live closer.”

“Best Thai food in the area. Been going for around two decades”

“15/10!! Their consistency and portions are amazing. This restaurant has yet to disappoint. Tried the sunrise country skillet for the first time today and it’s my new favorite. Very clean restaurant and the most pleasant staff!”

“I have been going to Bob's Super Chief since the 70s when it was on Telegraph at Dixie Highway. Best footlong coneys I've ever had. Their Tandem is the best. Will be making a 3 hour trip again soon.”

“absolutely phenomenal from staff to food. been coming here for 8 years not 1 complaint”

“Best pizza around. Having some right now! HIGHLY RECOMMEND IT 🍕❣️❣️”

“If you show up to buy your ticket in person they will rip you off. If a show is $20 online with an $8 fee why would you charge me $32 at the door? Your formula doesn’t make sense. Charge the ticket price at the door and bypass the online fee structure? No charge more than the ticket with fees at the door? Yes. Its a practice that I hate”

“Our waitress was very helpful she brought over out breakfast of Chorizo con Juevos (awesome)and Eggs not your typical greasy chorizo it was the most flavorful and no grease residue or aftertaste that usually stays with you all day. Eggs Rachancheros / green sauce that were cooked perfect. As for the atmosphere it's a Bar , Mexican rough apparently the fights are mostly in the men's bathroom.. beat up..🤠 I will return for a different dish to try out next time. Enjoy!”

“The food was great here!”

“Amazing experience. Our new place & it's super cozy❤❤❤”

“Oh yeah baby this the spot the only spot”

“A tuesday evening...waa hoping for a little rowdy crowd butI wasn't expecting a mirache band. Instead had a great dinner and stellar customer service. I'm from WA State and it seems service industry people there are angry- it's like you're inconvienencing them. Not here!

Was staying at Marriot across parking lot for some business at the UWM corporate headquarters and popped in. Will be back- great food, drinks and service”

“Deliciosa comida muy familiar el restaurant!!!”

“Ordered from this place for the first time today. Very impressed! I got the 10 piece shrimp with fries and a Mountain Dew! The shrimp were big, juicy and succulent! The fries were very tasty too! Portions were perfect as well! Will be back!”

“I’ve only had Happy’s twice and both from this location. Once delivered and once picked up. The food was done before the time promised, hot, and scrumptious. And it was a busy Friday night!”

“Came here for an early lunch, around 11 or so and there was only two ppl working so it did take a minute for our 20 sliders and fries but the food was fresh, the staff was very polite and the restaurant is clean! In the kitchen and in the lobby. For how old the restaurant itself is, I was pleasantly surprised. Keep up the good work guys!”

“Need to get the 🎤 microphone system fixed.

“super recomendado buena comida”

“I'm from upstate NY and was in the area for work training, looking for a good lunch spot. Within 2 steps in the front door, I knew I was in the right place. It was very clear that this is where the neighborhood locals eat. My coworker and I were quickly greeted by one of their great employees and our order was taken at lightning ⚡ speed. I've been here now on 4 different occasions with months in between and every time, I swear it's the best damn bacon cheeseburger I've ever had every single time. Not to mention the addictive and delicious mountain of fries served with it. I wouldn't change a thing about this place, and I make sure to stop if I'm ever in the area!
Sidenote - I won't even tell anybody at my training the name of it or where it is because I don't want my favorite lunch spot to get too blown up. IYKYK??”

“very friendly service. always great food and get you thee best slushie. amazing gem right here😍”

“food is amazing. Such a variety.”

“I accidentally stumbled on Ray's and tried the #3 Ray's special. I was very pleased with the portions and the price. The fish was well cooked and seasoned, the chicken was great with nice sized tasty shrimp. Everything was clean and the cashier was nice. I've been searching for a good place like this to eat at and I am glad that I found Ray's and I will be back.”

“I have enjoyed eating there for many years and would recommend it to all my friends. I hope they open for inside dinning soon.”

“Excellent and friendly service… food was great… highly recommend this location!!!”

“best icecream in Pontiac!”

“This place is fire I have no clue who made, this chicken but they know what there doing the last time I had this chicken it was juicy and bursted with flavor. The lemon pepper powder on the fries and chicken gives it a nice kick the ranch they can either provide you with or you ask for it gose bomb with this chicken I'd recommend this place 100% Goodluck. since this will knock you out with flavor!”

“I miss your food! I hope our paths cross again soon. stay safe!”

“This place is a hidden gem. We got the fried catfish and jumbo shrimp and it was so flavorful and crispy. The service was great as well. He was so friendly and attentive. Don’t sleep on this place”

“The service was quick and efficient, and the staff ensured everything was prepared exactly as ordered. The restaurant was spotless, well-maintained, and offered a comfortable dining environment. The portion sizes were generous, and the prices were fair for the quality of food and service provided.

Overall, I had a fantastic dining experience. The delicious food, excellent customer service, and pleasant atmosphere exceeded my expectations. I highly recommend this burger restaurant to anyone looking for great-tasting burgers and a memorable dining experience. I will definitely be returning again soon.”

“Lovely little place to eat!
The staff was very kind, the food was super yummy! They have an espresso bar which is rare around this area and the espresso was perfect. You could tell the omelettes were homemade and they used real butter on the toast. This place deserves more business because they have very good food here.”

“Me and my husband been going to this truck for a little over a year and all I can say is really love the food here!! There are only one thing I wish they would change… The girls that work there are always so nice and polite when we go they always make us feel welcomed and for sure listened to, but the little boy on the other hand he is really something else I believe he is the owners son he can be rude and sometimes has an attitude. Also we do notice that when we order with him it always a bit more $$ than usual. Not sure why but we trying going when we see that one of the girls are there. But other than that no problems at all love and really recommend this place!!! 😉”

“I was having issues with low iron, and that beet juice kept me going. I love the watermelon it was so refreshing on a hot summer day. Also the mean green will get you right and cleanse that colon.”

“I'm on a fixed income, so "fast food" is only an occasional treat for me. I found out about Shawarma Spot through a friend, and it has become my favorite little take-out restaurant. Their portions are quite generous, and you have several options for sauces and toppings. I order the Beef Shawarma, and at $8, I get two delicious meals for the price of one! (Admittedly, as a Senior, I have a small appetite.) Staff is always friendly, and they even put my "sauce on the side", so it still tastes fresh for my leftovers. I've frequently seen work crews there ordering Shawarma's multiple chicken wing deals. Give them a try!”

“When I was little I used to go in here with my papaw gene ball we live on cloverlawn rd he used to order me Shirley Temples and sit there and pretend I was a big girl having a drink 🍸 its been many many years since been here still looks the same to me the last I was there was back in 1986 they were good people and still are from what I hear I have yet to return there and I shall before I die just to see if they still serve that wonderful Shirley temple”

“Bob and Elmer's it's probably one of the safest bars in Potiac. I am a single female, 5 ft 2 and everybody made sure,I was safe and they even made sure that I made it home,again.
I have been coming to this bar for 40 years,nobody knows me,
It has always ben
AWESOME”

“I like the store and can find what I need. Last time I was there several people wanting money right outside the door. Felt a little frightened by them. Could clean the cart and store up.”

“This place has great food!! it's definitely a neighborhood bar so if you're from the neighborhood you'll be comfortable there!! Go see my girl Tiffany she's got you!! Owner is super nice let's the party get fun but not out of control...I'll be back”

“Best soft serve in the city. Come check them out.”

“we have love been going to them since they 1st came to pontiac.they are fast and so good.. my favorite is the consume with the meat in it omgggg so good”

“The food is always so good, especially on day shift. I love love the grilled chicken pitas and breakfast sandwiches. Every time I pick up my order they serves are so professional and nice even when they are busy. I all always appreciate their good service and the food is so worth it”

“Came here for a date night and it absolutely delivered. The atmosphere is lovely — quiet enough to actually talk, lively enough to feel like a proper occasion. We were seated promptly at a nice table and looked after by a server who was warm, witty, and clearly knew her stuff. The food was excellent across both courses, with portions that meant we didn't have to ration ourselves. We shared a dessert at the end because we couldn't resist. Bill was fair for the quality of the whole experience. Earned myself some serious points with this one. Already booking it again for our anniversary.”

“Best tacos I’ve ever had, literally! Had them one time at an event and had to hunt down the name of the place to get more. Great place, chill people, good vibes all around.”

“Probably not da best photo but thanks to the young lady who made this chicken nachos she kno what she was doin, chicken grilled right cheesy like it should be definitely was on point i put a dent in them nachos”

“So I grew up in Pontiac and now live in Romeo, we still come back several times a year to get Pizza Express bread sticks 😋 I think we're to 4 orders so we can share with neighbors.”

“This restaurant is run by an old Chinese couple.
The large quantity of food is very good for the price.
They only accept cash.
It’s kind of hidden away so you need to be looking for it to find it.
No dining inside (only a few chairs, no tables). Very fast to cook food, so order, take it and go.”

“My Hubby had some at a work party once and brought home some extra. It was Awesome! Not too close to home but it the go to for work parties now and I have him pick some up whenever he can.DEFINITELY RECOMMEND!y'all remember there's a lot of fast food franchises in gas stations!None of them taste as good a Jim's Krispy Chicken though ?”

“I grow up here and it's the only place I go to for fish and chicken. They have really great food and prices aren't bad. Yes I do recommend the place to be more open minded when it comes to the LGBTQIA community. Especially because I have to defend my husband and the owner assumed he was a female and he's not.”

“Went to Pontiac location today always A1 the catfish and shrimp were to die for definitely our fave spot for fresh steaming delicious seafood everything else they have is bomb af to love love love🤟💯👌”

“This is the best pizza in Pontiac Michigan ������������ Yummy yummy stuff Gotta go to h.h Hurry up Asiago stuffed crust is there best@!@@( Hey am I getting paid hungry howies) I'm starving I'm ordering mine now”

“We stopped for the first time after church to see why it was called Manhattan FISH and chicken. I remember having fried fish in New York and the memory lingers. My husband is from Louisiana and so I ordered both the cod and the catfish. Both delicious and my husband said it was the best he had tasted in a long time. Macaroni and cheese and the coleslaw were a nice addition to our Sunday dinner. We were wished a pleasant day and they said "see you next time" .... there will definitely be a next time.”

“After moving to Petoskey from Kalamazoo, I longed for good REAL Chinese food. While visiting the area for a concert I stumbled upon this local favorite. It did not disappoint. It exceeded our expectations. The owner lady was sweet, hospitable and very swift with serving us. The portions were very generous to put it lightly and very, very authentically out of control. Next concert I go to at Pine Knob it is going to be a must to go place!”

“Quick inside service. But ordering through drive thru is painful. It's always a game of 21 questions and repeating what you said. However, your order is typically accurate unlike most of their fast food competitors...”

“I was there recently and the lady on schedule was sooo amazing I truly enjoyed being a customer that day she was so lovely and welcoming very hospitable and pleasant I believe her name was JoAnn but I’ll never forget how sweet she was and she truly brightened my day ✨✨✨✨”

“Great place. For morning Treats before work, but you must go early in the morning! It's a good experience�”

“great store always happy with the service and always clean”

“I Got up to the window in the drive through and I wanted to add a sandwich to my order and the manager told me I needed to go back around and get in line again even though there was nobody behind me in line. The cashier felt very uncomfortable having to tell me tha what her manager said. In any other fast food drive through?I have never been told I have to go back around.”

“I have enjoyed eating there for many years and would recommend it to all my friends. I hope they open for inside dinning soon.”

“Miss Rockets great food & friendly workers!”

“The inside looks fantastic. Ive never been inside of this location, usually always drive thru, but this time I went in. Wow! Looks great! Brand new everything. Even a booth for handicap. Extra wide.

“My family and I stopped at this location on the way back to our city late last night, and I didn’t really expect much because rally’s is usually a hit or miss.. but the crew that made our food?! they made it with care and love. Whoever was on crew that night needs a raise.😭😍 it was so good. It almost tasted like five guys. Perfectly crispy fries 10 out of 10. My daughter is picky and even she loved her food.”

“Do not go here if you are in a hurry. Slowest 'fast-food' place ive seriously ever been to. There has never been a day in the last year that im not wanting in line 20 mins. They only take 1 order at a time. If there is someone at the window they are not taking orders until they drive away.
Very slow”

“Excellent and friendly service… food was great… highly recommend this location!!!”

“Five stars for Tim Hortons and especially Manager Shannon! Shannon consistently goes above and beyond to take care of me and makes my morning stops feel special. I regularly pick up morning snacks and treats for my clients, and she always makes sure everything is fresh, organized, and ready to go.

Her friendly attitude, attention to detail, and outstanding customer service are exactly what keep me coming back. It’s rare to find someone who remembers their customers and genuinely cares about making each visit a great experience. Shannon is a tremendous asset to Tim Hortons and deserves recognition for the exceptional way she takes care of her customers.

Thank you, Shannon, for making my mornings—and my clients’ mornings—a little sweeter!”
