Great little restaurant in the middle of Royal Oak on Main Street. Love that they have an entire…read morevegan section/side of the menu for those who eat vegan. While they offer outdoor seating, we opted to eat indoors as it was a blazing 92 degrees. The seats at the tables are very comfy. Our server was new but he did a great job. If he hadn't told us, we wouldn't have guessed it. I ordered the Fried Chicken Sliders but without the peaches or jalapeños. They did give me a side of sweet pickle chips though. The sliders comes with a Baja sauce that's fairly spicy so the sweet pickles balanced the heat. I would like to try their S'mores Waffles sometime but more for a dessert. So, I'll be back!

Always a great place to eat with friends. They have something for everyone! Their vegan menu has a…read morelot of decent options for vegan food. I've had their shakes before which were actually pretty good. The drunken chicken Philly was good, especially with the beer cheese, but I wish there was more cheese on the inside of the hoagie. The chicken itself was kind of bland and tasted mostly of pepper. The service was great! Overall this is a nice place for late night bar food and trying novelty items, but I do think it's a little overpriced for what it is.

Ambiance: Nice. Casual with a tiniest bit of upscale. Nice buildout. Service: very friendly. Had the feel of a neighborhood place with better trained serves. Food: Very good! Menu has a very wide selection, but not too many items to make your head spin. Everything was properly cooked. They have an interesting lunch and dinner menu too. I will definitely be back, parking permitted.

I've had this place on my radar for quite a while, so we stopped in on a sunny Saturday morning…read morebefore heading to the Royal Oak Farmers Market, which is just a short away. They have a bunch of cute outdoor seating, so we asked to sit out there. Rachel was our server and she was great - very friendly and attentive! I ordered the Avocado Scramble, but I made a couple of modifications. Unfortunately they forgot to address them, but Rachel took care of that right away and the dish was very good. My wife had the Eggs Benedict, her favorite breakfast dish. She said it was very good and she particularly liked the potatoes that came with it. One final note (and this was not reflected in my rating): the seating in the outdoor section is pretty tight and a couple with a large dog was seated next to us. I'm not a big fan of people bringing dogs to restaurants, but if they are well behaved, I can deal with it. Unfortunately, at one point this dog got excited by a dog coming by on the sidewalk and jumped up and started barking at the others dog, just inches away from me. It was quite startling and its owner was not particularly apologetic. With such a confined space, I think this establishment may want to reconsider whether it allows dogs in their outdoor seating area.

We arrived at front entrance at 4:04pm, were inside, in line, at 4:10pm, were told at 4:15pm that outside happy hour area was Full. We could be put on a wait list or go to the counter area, next to hostess stand, and order all the same HH items. There is NO WAY this place fill up in 15 min. Obviously they were letting ppl in Ahead of the specified time. EXTREMELY UNORGANIZED to say the least. Very Disappointing! We Did wait at the counter for another 10 minutes (while the employees served 3 customers during this 10 min span) before deciding to go elsewhere. Next time I guess we'll sit outside gates at 3pm.

The restaurant had been closed for the entire week after the July 4 holiday, yet Kevin O'Mara and his team opened on Saturday just to host our family and friends. That level of hospitality meant a great deal during a difficult time. We chose the wild-caught walleye over the prime rib, and it was the right decision. Lightly breaded and seasoned just enough to let the fish speak for itself, it was excellent. The whiskey sauce bread pudding was memorable, and even the coleslaw stood out with a unique flavor that had everyone asking what was in it. What impressed me most, though, was how much the restaurant has evolved. We had eaten here six or seven years ago and left feeling the family-style meals lacked creativity. This visit was a completely different experience. You can tell Kevin has thoughtfully reinvented the menu, emphasizing wild-caught and organic ingredients, avoiding unnecessary additives, and preparing everything with care. The staff was attentive, Kevin was an exceptional host, and every detail helped make an emotional day easier for our family. Five stars. Highly recommended.

Service and Ambiance was perfect. Have no complaints when it came to that at all…read more The food however was another story. I've been hearing really good things for about year regarding this place. Especially the French onion soup. I absolutely adore French onion soup. If you like a sweet soup that doesn't have that rich beefy flavor you will like this. If you like rich , savory French onion soup you will be unfortunately as disappointed as I was. We did try the mushroom tart, there was so much cream on the tart it made the pastry dough soggy. There were so many leeks it was overpowering. We got the duck confit and it was dry and tasteless. Needless to say, I had to make us lunch when we got home and I cried on the way home due to how disappointed I was. We will never be back.

One giant raise for her, please, thanks. At least 10 extra dollars an hour. I got the uhhh. Brioche... something. Basically fancy French toast with caramelized apples on top with a really good whipped cream. Super good. Might start caramelizing apples for French toast all the time now. My friend got the duck slow cooked in oil, forgot what it's called. But I tried a piece and it was really good too. Oily, but that should be expected of something submerged and cooked in oil. First time trying duck, and I think it's more fatty than chicken, so that probably contributes as well. Still good though. The lemon financier was good too, reminded me of like a lemon pound cake if you aren't sure if you'd like it.

I started with the Cloud City cocktail which was well balanced and fresh. We then shared the chicken Tikka skewer and the Firecracker dip. Tasty.

We were hoping g there would be room for dessert as the soft serve looked amazing but we'll save that for next time.

I could not be more disappointed in my experience here. Absolutely will never come back…read more Within our first fifteen minutes we had two separate employees dump drinks on us and our table. First with water, second with all of our cocktails. The cocktails not only dumped across our tables and laps but across silverware and plates and into water glasses . We cleaned up a majority of the mess made by the server then had to ask multiple times for replacements before just retrieving from another table near by. The party next to us witnessing this opted not to stay for dinner. Do you blame them? I think we all understand stuff happens and we were more than gracious, but it wasn't even acknowledged, nor was there much concern that this happened two times by their staff. One by accident, one complete carelessness. Had we not put our dinner order in we would have also left. Two stars because the cocktails were the only thing worth the visit. Worst birthday dinner ever.
