We called and asked what time they closed. We were told 12:00 a.m and arrived at 11:20pm. We were…read moremet aggressively at the door by a man with a horrible attitude looking at his watch saying he was closing it down in 10 minutes so it was no need to come in. We said had we known that, we wouldn'tve come, but was told you closed at midnight. He barked at us saying that didn't have anything to do with him. We left and went to Bloom, a new restaurant and lounge and it won't be long before all the customers from Duo end up there. They were pleasant from the security to the waitress to the owner. The had great service and even took pics of us to remember the night. Great thing you refused to serve us at 11:20 we would never gone there.

We were a group of 3 who wanted to be seated outside on a hot and sticky Michigan day. Luckily…read morethere was a nice breeze. Ok make that 2 of 3 that wanted to be outside. As we followed our greeter to our table I kept screaming in my mind "no no no no no not that table no!" and she sat us at a table in full blasting sun. Nevermind the fact that there was a whole shaded section in the back part of the patio area. The rest of my group said it was fine and a beam of sun slowly bore a hole through my chest. Drink orders were up. I ordered a fabulous cross between a Moscow Mule and a Mojito. A+++ for the drinks. Mine was loaded with fresh mint from their garden. Same grade for our waitress who explained the drinks in detail and ended with "ugh- are you sure you want to sit at this table straight in the sun?" The other two said it was fine. I was ready to move, but was out voted. She continued to check in regularly and brought extra water. Most items on the menu were hot. I considered the fish, but we all landed on appetizers and we would just bounce from place to place for bites and drinks. We ordered the charcuterie board and the lavender lemon whip with bread and cucumbers for the 3 of us. The charcuterie board was the large version and had minimal offerings. It wasn't full and pretty. It was little piles of each thing on a board. This one definitely wasn't making it into Better Homes and Gardens magazine. There was a little pile of mixed nuts, a little pile of lose green grapes, a little pile of lose red grapes - not all grapes pristine or large and none were on the vine. There were 3 little piles of cubed cheese and 2 types of sliced sausage and sliced pepperoni. There were 8 crackers that were wheat thin size. This matters because we had some onion jam on the board and a nice serving of mustard. There really wasn't anything to put them on except for the 8 little crackers. That part was weird. These weren't elevated offerings. I could have picked up any of these at Walmart. They were not elevated quality either. We also got a lavender lemon infused whip which was their answer to tzatziki sauce. It was excellent but again, we were given so much of the sauce without a bunch to put it on. The cucumbers were sliced lengthways and there was a lovely bread that tasted like sourdough. There was 6 pieces of bread, and these were not particularly large pieces. A lot more would have been needed to use all of the sauce they gave. The proportions were off. All together the bill was over $100 for the 3 drinks and appetizers. If I ever did go back I won't order food based on what I experienced. There are too many other great options within walking distance.

Came here for an anniversary dinner and left a bit disappointed. I have heard good things but…read moreturned out to be a very mediocre dinner. Got a burger and upgraded to truffle fries. Just one burger option and limited toppings. Server was very nice but didn't write down the order, and when it came my burger was missing the cheese and onion. I wasn't sure if they would take it back or what so I didn't eat anymore and it took her a decent amount of time to come and check on us after we got our food. I let her know what was missing and she said it was her fault and asked if I wanted it fixed. I said yeah and she went and got a cold piece of cheese and slice of onion and put it on a plate and gave to me to put on my own burger. I'd expected a little bit better service and I'm certainly not someone who demands top tier service from every spot. Fries were crispy but needed some parm or an aioli sauce to dip in. Also minor note but I had some fries left on my plate and when she came to collect plates I had food in my mouth so I couldn't say anything but she took the plate and my fries! They should always ask if there's any food left on the plate. Burger was decent overall, but definitely nothing special. Environment was cool and I'm sure they have got some other delicious items on the menu but for the price paid and service received, I'd go somewhere else next time.

Granted, this club is definitely nicer than most of the clubs that I've been to in royal oak but the salsa dancing here just seems so blah compared to cantina's (which is now closed ). The vibe seemed more like people trying to look good and stand around instead of actually dancing. Maybe I just went on a bad night? I'm not sure but I'll give this place one more try before I say no forever to scl royal oak.

I usually park on the residential street behind the venue because by the time I arrive, the surrounding parking lots are all full. This works out in my favor though because I have not had to pay for parking. You enter through the back where they check your ID and scan your ticket. They have a nice little seating area with benches towards the back and a decent sized area for a "pit" where you would watch the show. All of their drinks seem fairly priced for a music venue. I paid $8 for a Bell's Oberon Eclipse. It does get SUPER hot in there, especially if you are in the mix closer to the stage. I feel like the music sounds pretty good here and I usually leave feeling super pleased with my experience.

It's kind of small, not big at all I wouldn't recommend having a large party here. The food was okay as well. I had the catfish nuggets and fries which it was not bad. I would get again and it's a little expensive. I had some of my friend chicken and truffle fries, the chicken didn't have much seasoning on it and the truffle fries weren't that good. I would just say the food is average and the service could've been better. Overall I would go again for another gathering if my friends were having it.

Beautiful band and decent DJ. The band sounds amazing! I arrived at 8:30p to claim the reserved booth. My mom really enjoyed herself and so did my family. But the bathrooms are very small! The service is really slow, even with them having 2 separate bars! I waited 2 hours for steak bites only to be told at the last min that they were out. The salmon bites were extremely small and they dont give you a bowl full. They took 30mins to come out and they upcharge on liquor. Example: i ordered a regular lemon drop but i was charged for the lemon drop and for titos. I ordered a green tea martini but was brought a green tea shot and was charged for the drink and jameson! They need to let their guest know that in advance especially since the specific liquor was not requested. The manager and bartender seemed nice! The waitresses were nonchalant. I had to keep flagging them down to order food and or drinks.

This is probably one of my favorite places in Royal Oak. It's an actual dance club and it's usually…read morea good atmosphere. The drinks are reasonably priced and pretty strong. The bartenders are pretty attentive for the most part. Also, there is quite a bit of security, which is helpful in keeping the peace. I have never been there when there were any problems. Only issues are the line is always really long even when it is not full downstairs. I've waited in line for up to 30 minutes when it wasn't very full and waited less time when it was. That was partially due to the security overdoing their job. Also, being that it is in a basement, it can get pretty humid but that is to be expected when in a basement full of people. Other than that, I always enjoy myself here.

Not exactly the place for me, but I'd go back if my friends made me.

They respond saying it's free, but only after 9pm if ppl haven't paid for all of the booths . So basically what's left over . I was gonna chance it , but the day before I got a text saying the booths were 60% sold out. So I went ahead and bought a booth . We get there after 10 and had to pay to enter because the birthday list is before 10pm. Get inside and outside of staff , there was 6 other ppl there! They were out of the most popular food items . I waited 20 mins to get a waitress. I tell her it's a birthday and inquire about the free bottle. She asks what kind I want and I say tequila if they have it. She comes back to the table multiple times and says she's still checking on the bottle . On the final time she asks what kind again , I tell her tequila and she says they only have moscato and the free bottle is wine . I ask if they can upgrade to tequila in light of the booth and lack of booth situation, food, and lack of ppl. She says no but I can purchase house tequila bottle of Jose quervo for $300! I said absolutely not! Trying to salvage the night I asked for 4 shots which should have been $36. They charged me gratuity 25% at that ! , mind you I went up to the bar because the waitress kept disappearing. Worst birthday party ever!
