“Have visited twice now, and enjoyed the experience. Bright environment, very clean asthetic. Food is delicious, hard to look ahead as the menu changes frequently by design. Be prepared to be flexible, limited menu options but the food is very good. Had fried mushrooms on a tagliatelle plate that were the best I've ever eaten.Staff was attentive, side dish was overcooked and replaced without hesitation.Parking: Free after 6.The location is interesting near the trsnsit station and Deja Vu, some of my friends have been cautious with parking.”

“This was my first time trying this place and I’mso glad I did. I did a carry out order. I was greeted pleasantly and promptly.I got Chicken Tikka Masala, Butter chicken (medium for both) and garlic naan. I played it safe because it was my first time trying but I will be trying more next time. The food was spiced and flavored perfectly. Everything tasted fresh. This is some of the best Indian food I have had in Michigan. Cannot wait to go back.”

Ypsi Alehouse 124 Pearl St #100, Ypsilanti Brewpubs • $$
124 Pearl St #100, Ypsilanti

“Their refrigerator is definitely running. I called and checked. Please do not call them to ask if their refrigerator is running because I am here to tell you that it is. If you called them I would hate that. The bartender said not to worry about it and that it would not be that fast anyway, so even if the sidewalks are kind of slippery you'd probably be able to get away, even with an old person or a small dog or a kid. Don't be afraid about the refrigerator. Absolutely do not call them about the refrigerator because you're terrified of it chasing you. They have rootbeer”

The staff was super friendly, the decor was fantastic show casing famous African American leaders and historical figures. Very nice atmosphere with the Motown sounds playing in the background. The dinner that I had (Bar B Que meatloaf, yams, green beans and cornbread) was off the chain. I really enjoyed my meal. I would lightly recommend this place to anyone looking for a GOOD soul meal.”

“Wasn't to bad. The dishes I had was great but the iced tea was horrible. Sat and waited for our ticket for nearly 20 minutes along with boxes to pack up leftover food. They really cater to their own Korean customers first. I felt like I was in their country literally and my wife is asian. Laughing ?”

11 E Cross St, Ypsilanti

“Food is very good. No change in the quality of food. They have 2 different trucks. One is red colored. The other one is black colored, and older. I have had only positive experiences with the red truck when it is open (it does have an issue with unpredictable open hours/locations, but I can live with that for a food truck).I had a negative experience with the other, black colored truck at wide world of sports. I waited for like 20 minutes, despite being the first in line (behind someone picking up a called in order). The man charging the guy picking up couldn't get the credit card machine to work, which added to the delay. I left.:( Food: 5/5 (hence the strong review); Ease of placing an order in a reasonable amount of time for a food truck: 2-5/5, depending; Ease of locating the truck(s) on any given day: 2/5 (their facebook page sometimes has updates).”

Bobcat Bonnie's 200 W Michigan Ave, Ypsilanti Gastropubs • $$
200 W Michigan Ave, Ypsilanti

“This honestly would have been a 5 star review had it not been for the GM Chuck. This was clearly a day where the restaurant was displaying, what many restaurants are facing these days, a shortage in staff. There was literally 1 waiter, 1 seater, and the chef. The waiter was tripling for bartender, waiter, and runner , however, John couldn't have been more exceptional. He apologized for the wait, made some amazing drinks (i got the blueberry lavender lemonade and added tequila ) and brought out some AMAZING FOOD. i got the Brussels and the spicy bowl (hold the swine no ), and ooohhhwer was it good. The assistant manager Theo, was very understanding of our complaints because we really wanted to talk to Chuck personally to express our distaste for his rude behavior, condescending attitude, and just overall piss poor demeanor. Chuck, in my opinion, shouldn't be working in hospitality because he doesn't, have a heart for people. To watch his staff suffering but still making the best, while he acted as if he didn't want to be bothered, is extremely unacceptable. I would say, secondly come here, except when Chuck is here.”

Aubree's Pizzeria & Grill 39 E Cross St, Ypsilanti Pizza • $$
39 E Cross St, Ypsilanti

“Outstanding experience with great appreciation for the ambiance with incredible food with two helpings at the buffet of the broccoli cheese soup. I dine out a lot. I'm an old man. Way back in the day when I was a kid growing up service was conducted in such a way that no matter what the employee was bringing to work that day they put it behind them. They were there to work and provide a service. This was a mindset in the day where the customer was always right. I never agreed with that but that mindset itself tells you of the utmost importance of satisfying a guest. Well that day is long gone. Occasionally I have great service but rarely due to the demise of what has happened to the workforce post pandemic. My server today Jenna was extraordinary. If every other server in the industry were like her maybe their tips would increase tenfold. I walked and right at 2:00 not knowing they had a buffet and that was the end of time but Jenna extended it. She told me what was left and it was most sufficient. I walked past the buffet to the restroom and I noticed about seven slices of pepperoni pizza. Upon my return a couple had just walked away from the buffet and there was one slice left. LOL minutes later there was an entire pizza because Jenna and formed the kitchen that it might be best to make another one. I was blown away at her thoughtfulness. Eventually she asked if it would be okay to break down the salad bar. Can you believe an employee would ask a guest if it would be okay. I said of course. She continued to let the hot food sit there and she did not rush me at all as well as the 12 top that came in at around 2:30. They ordered individual meals. She handled everything like a pro. I am writing this review first and foremost to call attention to her service and I hope she receives acknowledgment from her supervisors and the ownership. I am moving to town so I will be back. Thank you Jenna and the kitchen staff.”
