    Chicken Shawarma
    Brittany M.

    Got chicken shawarma sandwich and it was just okay. I got it without mayo. I'm glad I read the menu closely because I hate mayo and the idea of putting it on shawarma is repulsive.

    Needing to grab something to eat before work we stopped in and grabbed the best chicken shawarma's in the world! We ordered ahead so they were ready upon arrival. This location was nice and clean and the service great. Can never go wrong coming here.

    These shawarmas are not wrapped properly, leaving things continually spilling out. If this was cheap food, I wouldn't complain. Come on. This isn't subway. Please do better.

    This is a beautiful restaurant! With friendly servers and great food! We really enjoyed the chicken shawarma and curly fries. And you get a huge portion! Of delicious curly fries! They have a huge staff-and the food comes out really fast! We appreciate that!! If we are ever to visit Detroit again-we would be happy to eat here again!!

    First of all I have to say this place is VERY clean, like some must be sweeping and mopping every 10 mins here because I haven't seen a place that clean during lunch hour in awhile. Anyways I ordered the Lamb Shwarma and a Fatoosh Salad and it was VERY good. Everything was crisp on the salad and the Shwarma, the onions the green peppers and the lettuce itself was all very crisp and the onions on the shwarma were also crisp for the price I thought this better be a good shwarma but when I seen the size of it I understood. This is a very good establishment and everyone here is hard at work.

    There's definitely a reason this place has so many terrible reviews. The quality of the food and the service isn't going to change unless people stop spending money here. Because of the lack of quality dining options in the university district, they stay busy. But that doesn't mean they get high volume based on customer satisfaction. Never again.

    I got a chicken shawarma salad. Generous portion of chicken & a wonderful lemony oil dressing. It was the perfect size and I'm not sure if it comes with pita, but I ordered 2 pitas and I got 6 (which I was very very happy about) I will definitely be back!

    Steak salad. Yum!

    Delicious. My favorite chicken shwarma sandwich. It's tender and juicy. The garlic paste is plentiful. A whole pickle inside. So yummy.

The Huevos Rancheros were packed with bold, fresh flavors and cooked perfectly. The Charmoula Chicken was incredibly juicy with just the right amount of spice and herbs. The Crème Brûlée French Toast special was absolutely unforgettable--crispy caramelized sugar on top, rich custard flavor, and somehow indulgent without being over-the-top. And the burger? Easily one of the best diner burgers I've had--perfectly cooked, juicy, and loaded with flavor. Beyond the food, the atmosphere is quirky, welcoming, and exactly what you'd hope for from a "finer diner." The service was friendly, attentive, and made us feel right at home. Highly recommend!!!

    What a great brunch spot. I had breakfast at The Fly Trap with my parents last week, and it was a…read moretreat. It's got retro charm, great service, and a menu that is both classic and creative. What made it a great meal was that every food item was just so well prepared. I had their Green Eggs and Ham (poblano pesto and jack cheese scrambled eggs served with seared ham, spuds, and toast). My parents both ordered the Forager Rumble (mushrooms, caramelized onions, smoked gouda, and greens scrambled with eggs, served with spuds and toast), but my mom veganized it (with tofu and no cheese) and my stepdad egg white-d it. They make everything in house, down to their jams (the jam of the day was strawberry basil) and the hot sauces (they offer a range from mild to hot). I don't normally eat much of the toast served with breakfast plates, but with jam that good!? I ate that (well-buttered) toast! My green eggs and ham was a treat - retro, fun, and delicious. We also enjoyed a few cups of coffee each. On top of the great food, the service was great. The friendliest. This is just a charming spot for breakfast. I'd love to return!

    So I have to say that driving to this place makes you feel like you're in the wrong area but it's…read moreexactly where it says it is. The inside of this place looks amazing and the outside patio is even nicer, this is a very romantic looking restaurant. We went here for my wife's birthday and thought I would treat her to a nice restaurant for dinner and that's exactly what it was. Now the way their ordering process goes is a little confusing, I don't know if it was our waitress or it's just how things go but we ordered our drinks and then after they came Out with our drinks then they asked if we wanted an appetizer then after that came out they asked if we wanted a meal, so like I said I don't know if that's how they do it or it was just our waitress. So we ordered our drinks and I had a Smoked Old Fashioned, anywhere I go if I see that cocktail on the menu I order it, when it came out they had the smoke infuser on it and when they took it off the smoke just bellowed out, it tasted amazing, I have to say that it was a really good old fashioned. For an appetizer I had the Caesar Salad which tasted fresh, crunchy and just refreshing, the cheese was delicious and the dressing was really good. Next I ordered the Fettuccine Alfredo with Chicken added and it was very delicious, the noodles were soft, the chicken was delectable and the sauce was very flavorful. Everything from the ambience to the food here was flawless with the exception of some older gentleman that didn't stop talking the WHOLE time we were there, nothing we could do about that but everything was perfect and I would love to come back and try other meals. So a few things to point out is they offer valet parking for $12, they offer brunch & Breakfast every Saturday & Sunday and on the bill they add Gratuity (20%) on there already just so you know before heading there, most people freak out about not knowing this and I am here to tell you it is added, however, the food was worth every bit of it.

    Food: 3.5/5 Service: 3.5/5…read moreAmbiance: 4/5 Drinks: 3/5 It was a decent experience that I would give another shot, but definitely not as advertised. We were there for a special occasion (I added that to the reservation note); not the biggest deal, but we weren't asked about that at all. The drinks were decent, but not the best, and the same was true for the food. Some dishes were pretty good, including my husband's chicken parmesan, but others could have been better. We also tried the crème brûlée cheesecake for dessert, which was pretty good, but the brûlée top was gummy rather than crackable. Additionally, the plates themselves were somewhat hard to eat from as aesthetics seemed to come before functionality. No spoons set with the flatware, either, which should be standard for an Italian restaurant. The atmosphere was good, and server was friendly, but service was a bit spotty for a relatively slow night. However, food and drinks arrived quickly. Our water glasses were not ever topped off, and when the busser did come by, the wrong plates were taken away; bread and oil were removed and our dirty/empty dishes left behind at the table. So, it was decent, but not quite the fine dining experience it purports to be. Hopefully it will get there, because it is a cool spot.
