    a plaque on the side of a brick building
    Cathy W.

    Fun place for a fun cocktail. Great meet-up place, although not necessarily somewhere I would hang all night. But, shouldn't be missed if you are pub crawling in Wyndotte or just looking for something interesting and different drink-wise. The Pina Colada martini is sweet and delicious. The Pink Panther, lemonade, vodka and raspberry liqueur was pretty refreshing and their dessert martinis like the Buttafinga looked enticing, but we didn't try them so I can't comment. Love the history of this place. Check out the plaque out front!

    Chicken tenders

    Our martinis had sparkles and sprinkles in them. Omg I could drink those all night. The drinks never disappoint. The chicken tenders are just "meh" but the drinks are amazing enough to easily give this place 5 stars.

    Unassuming spot (look hard for sign). Once you get in you will like the open floor plan and simple decor. Great martini, beer, and full bar choices. They are happy to get foods from next store for you but they'll have to swipe your card next store (not a big deal) and next door is a tasty bbq joint.

    Walked in and there was a big birthday party getting ready to start for someone. The place is actually pretty big and the style is pretty cool. It's the original bar from the prohibition days, and the building has quite a lot of history to it. The drinks are good, lots of options and the staff is pretty good. The martini menu is extensive and the make a great martini also. Also, they didn't water down the drinks with a ton of ice. The only con I could see to this was that the food was okay. I mean yes it's a bar, but it's not the type of place I'd come to have dinner. Definitely a great atmosphere for small plates and drinks.

    We had an absolute blast at Gizzmos! We decided to hang out in Wyandotte for the day. It is such a cool city by the water. Being bar crawl night, we were in the right place. We ended up sitting at the bar and ordering a few martinis and a few shots to get the night started! We bumped into the coolest bartender! She was hilarious and could really mix up some drinks. He decided to let me do his choosing for the night, so I ordered him a pineapple upside down martini and a caramel apple one. I ordered a Raspberry martini. Our drinks were delicious. We also ordered apple pie shots...yummmmm! They best part of the night, free credits on the jukebox. Guess who was the DJ in charge? lol We had an absolute blast picking out our favorite songs of the decades and singing along. I even caught him doing a little dancing! hahaa What an amazing time at Gizzmos! We will most certainly be back. It's moments like this that make lasting memories.

    Little drink for the night. Staff is great and quick to assure your glass is full. They do have appetizers to order. Though I've only had the loaded chips. Comes with cheddar, bacon, scallions, and tomatoes. They are very filling and a huge portion sizes. This feeds three no problem. Key-lime martini is my personal favorite. Also, try the upside down pineapple cake. Both are great!! The owner also owns the Alvis Bbq next door. I will have to try it out as well.

    Good variety of alcohols. Old time wood bar.

So keep in mind that there always seems to be a theme. And I wouldn't say the popup thing is all that great. Once it seemed like they just printed images on a printer and taped them to the wall. They highly recommend reservations and I totally get that. However, I came in once because I was in the area and didn't have a reservation but thought I would see about getting a table anyhow. When I came in I was literally the only person there and when I said I didn't have a reservation, the girl acted like I was a bother. She did seat me in likely the most awkward spot you could think of, but the entire time I was there exactly one additional table came in. At least an hour, maybe a little more. So why could I have not had a more reasonable location to sit? And for staff, other than one hostess one time I've been there, all staff have acted annoyed to be there. The food has been good each time I've been there, but no point in mentioning it since it changes all the time. I think there's a few things that stay menu to menu, but I didn't have any of those. At least not that I'm aware of. The names are all part of the theme as well so it could be hard to tell. Drinks here are tiny and expensive. Also on theme again with whatever the popup is. They go very light on the alcohol so I do not feel like I'm getting my value with the drinks. And another thing is they give you the tiniest glass of water. Three sips and you have to ask for more. I guess that's to get you to buy more drinks? Desserts have been exceptional. That's keeping it at 3 stars and not down to 2. Again they seem different each time so no point in going over any of them.

We got seated by the bartender/waitress and then I went to the bathroom. As soon as I came back she was chomping at the bit for our order and I haven't even looked at a menu. I decided to just get water as I had an hour drive back home and had already had a drink elsewhere. My two friends ordered there drink. The waitress said that only ordering water was not acceptable although people at our table ordered alcoholic drinks. I have never been to any bar or restaurant that tries to pressure their customers into drinking. When I told her no that I was driving she insisted I had to order a mocktail because they were like other bars/restaurants were you have to order. I have never been to a place that has pressured one person in a group to order if others had already done so. My friends drinks were already there so I wasted 5 bucks on a shirley temple that didn't even taste good. I had a few sips and then decided to leave as I felt like the night was now ruined. I will never return.

We decided to sit out at the patio cause it was a nice day. They had a band getting ready to play which was pretty cool. We ordered a couple cocktails I got a Peach Old Fashioned which was very delicious and boozy. As for an appetizer we ordered these Pretzel sticks which were soft and chewy and then the cheese that came with it was delicious. The burger I had was called "Fire Haven" it had onions, tomato and jalapeños on it with 2 hamburger patties, it had lettuce but I asked for no lettuce since we have this parasite going around the U.S. right now, The burger was quite tasty and very fulfilling, the jalapeño had a nice crunch to it and the meat was seasoned very well. I also ordered a German Dunkel beer which I didn't really care for, I thought I would like it cause I love dark beers but I guess I don't like German dark beers. Everything here was so good.

This is a German restaurant in name only. Service was sub-par. My party sat for 10-15 minutes before water was offered. Ordered appetizers and our dinners. Dinners came first followed five minutes later by appetizers. My order of Chicken paprikash was lukewarm and I could find very little chicken in it. I was so hungry I regrettably ate it that way. Waitress never checked back if everything was ok or if we wanted another round of drinks. I generously give two stars because the Weihenstephaner Dunkel on draft is a rare find and the German egg rolls are outstanding. Other than that, our visit was sehr enttäuschend (disappointing)

The double smash burger hit the spot for being beefy and cheesy, nice soft bun with onion, lettuce and tomato(?). Side of Mayo came with it, other condiments in a basket with utensils. It was a little messy but that's what made it delicious. I tried the garlic dill fries and they were thinner cut, hot, crispy and while seasoned well- which for some may be a little too salty. I would get them plain next time- I will definitely be back as I enjoyed the meal so much. They have seats at the bar, tables inside and a good sized covered outdoor patio. Darker ambiance inside with lighting from neon lights and 3 big TV screens above the bar, though some evening natural light added in. Service was great, since I sat at that bar where the drinks were being made. Staff were busy taking care of food and drink orders but attentive to customers at all the right times: greeting new ones at the bar, they took my order promptly, food came out in decent amount of time for dinner/ Happy Hour crowd.

There's limited parking on the street outside but a large lot a short distance away, accessible to those with mobility concerns.
