    Philly Cheesesteak and Truffle & Herb fries
    Symone B.

    Although the establishment was extremely busy for a friday night (there was a private event going on) we were seated immediately and the food came out very quickly. The server was very helpful and the food was AMAZING. The fries were perfectly cooked and seasoned and almost melted in my mouth. I love coming here before going out on the town as the food and drinks are less than $5 and everything always comes out so quickly

    We will be regulars here! All of the sandwiches are sliders so you can get two or three depending on how hungry you are. I had the grilled cheese and the cheeseburger sliders which were absolutely delicious. My husband had the Cuban and the coney, which he raved about. The sides are all small, so we got fries and Mac and cheese. Since everything is small portions, we had room for two desserts. The fried bread pudding was made of chunks of that you could eat with a fork. The s'mores dessert was slider style, with melted marshmallow and chocolate inside a slider bun. Our entire meal was $28 before tip! Also, service was great.

    First of all, I'd give this place 3.5 stars if it were possible, definitely not a 4, it just didn't live up to the hype. We happened to be going someplace nearby, and decided to finally try this spot. (I sort of wished we just went to Mexican Town to eat). All 3 if us were first timers, we luckily came in before a Pre Tigers game rush. Our server, Bobby, was efficient but lacked personality. It was like he rushed us through our order, I guess that's great to turn tables and get ppl to the game on time. We wanted to try a bunch of sliders. We got the double cheeseburger, Philly cheesesteak, fried chicken, Cuban, pork belly and fried chicken Caesar. We also got Cajun fries, Poutine , chili cheese fries and Mac and cheese. The double cheeseburger was typical and good. Fried chicken Caesar was good, We liked the dressing Pork belly was disappointing and bland Cheesesteak was just ok Fried chicken was good The Cuban was one of the better ones For the sides, we liked the thin fries, with Cajun and poutine being our favorites. I didn't care for the venison chili cheese fries, but the others liked it. The Mac and cheese was so bland, even some salt and pepper would have made it better, but it wasnt on the table and our server wasn't around to ask for it. One thing that annoyed me was that our food came out gradually, our fries came out way before our food, 12 minutes to be exact (looked at the time on my photos). We also ordered some cocktails, I was in the mood for a margarita, so I ordered a spicy margarita, it waa pretty good, not spicy at all, no salt, but the flavor was decent. My sister ordered a New fashioned, she said is wasn't anything special. We also got summer soda (vodka, basil, lemon, cucumber and soda) it had a strange flavor, I'm not sure from what, as it should be pretty simple and straight forward. I'm not sure of the name of the other cocktails, it may have been gin promise, it was pretty good. Overall, we all said we wouldn't go out of our way to eat here again. We all agreed that it didn't live up to the hype we've heard all of these years. I did like the old school vibe inside, dark with horse stable themed decor. Interesting place, some things were better than others. I could see this being a good place to grab a pretty quick drink and bite to eat before a game. Surely, better than eating at the ballpark, etc..

    Not for me, but I get the appeal - having a host of different sliders to try for ~$4 each is a fun novelty plus where else can you wash it down with a $4 beer these days? I just felt the food didn't taste very good. It was ~45 minutes to be seated during non peak hours but luckily they have a covered waiting area in the back with picnic tables and a separate bar. Once seated, service was quick and ambiance was lively. I enjoyed the Christmas Ale they had on tap but others in my group who ordered cocktails were disappointed. For food, I decided to try the pork belly slider and cuban slider but wouldn't order them again. The best thing I ate was probably the fries and the kale salad, although it was pretty basic. You get what you pay for I guess.

    I had a great time here! The weight is often really long. The last time I went in the weight was over two hours and I wasn't able to stay. I am so glad I came back and tried again! We came in the afternoon so the wait was only about 15 minutes. The drinks are pretty cheap and there are so many different types of burgers you can try. I personally loved the Reuben! Our server was great and even gave us a few suggestions like adding bacon to the PB&J. I highly recommend the truffle fries they didn't even need a dipping sauce. It's pretty cozy inside, but it didn't seem awkward at all. There is a great area out in the back where you can grab a drink and wait for a seat. I will definitely be back!

    Very cool place!!!! Basically they have an all Slider menu which is nice because you can mix and match different combinations. I had the Regular Hamburger, Chicken Sandwich and the Cuban. All three were very good and I will definitely go back to try others. The Fries were Excellent and the prices are super reasonable!!! Matt the bartender was very helpful and provided great service.

    I think the fries are actually the best draw to this place. They are crispy and thin! Not pictured is the venison chili fries and the poutine fries that I tried which were delicious! I wish I had ordered the venison one for myself! The sliders were good. I liked the spicy pork slide, but it wasn't really that spicy for me. The chicken Caesar slider was good, but I do wish it had had some parmigiana cheese added. The waiters were nice and checked in on us a lot and helpful when there was an order mix up.

    Came here on a Wednesday around 6pm and they were busy but not crazy...the host was very nice and willing to seat me without the rest of my party present (they have a sign that you cannot be seated without your full party). He said they will accommodate when they can so I appreciated it! The place was a bit loud and fast-paced. Menu was pretty straight forward with sliders, fries, and sides. Our waiter was not the friendliest. He was short and to the point which seemed like the vibe for the restaurant but no chit chat, eye contact, and I felt like he just wanted to rush us out the door. Our party ordered a side of fries and two sliders each. Fries came out first which was a bit of a bummer as we were able to finish them before we even saw our sliders. The Cajun fries and the truffle/herb fries were very delicious! I ordered the chicken ceasar slider which was quite tasteless, chicken way overcooked, and overall a dud. The Philly cheesesteak slider was pretty good. Oh also, the caramel apple drink - disgusting lol don't do it! Now the fried bread pudding? To die for :) Overall not the best but I would return and try out more sliders and those Cajun fries!

    We absolutely love the green dot stables. Everyone in my family got something completely different. Everyone loved what they got. It's fast friendly and it's cute on the inside.

    The go to place for sliders in metro Detroit. They have a large variety of unique sliders and all of them are made with quality ingredients and taste awesome! Quality, quick service, and definitely a place you'll want to visit time and time again!

    Jen P.

    Super fun lunch place. It was PACKED today but only had to wait for maybe 10 minutes. They make it so easy to order drinks at bar and go sit on patio and text you when table is ready. Service was fast. Server was helpful, thorough and great at refills. Menu is easy to follow. Most people ordered 2-3 burger sandwiches and 1 or 2 sides. Perfect sizes to try many things. Great dive atmosphere. Easily would go back.

    Cajun fries and kale salad
    Heena J.

    This place was great for a big group and it had enough vegetarian options. I had the Cajun fries, plant based sliders and the kale salad. Portions and prices were good and the service was pretty quick too. We did have to wait for a table but they had a bar with games to wait in which helped time go by.

    Harshit s.

    Perfect sliders and ambiance. Their slider of the day was on point. Very good staff and great drinks, cant go wrong with them.

Olivia was our server and despite being slammed she gave us a thorough rundown of the place, the menu, and the flavors. Everything sounded great and she certainly made deciding easier. We started with a chartreuse forward cocktail, The Last Word...which is certainly a drink worthy of a conversation. I do recommend trying it to start. We also got the bread service with seasonal butter which was cinnamon salt. My wife is not a big fan of cinnamon and even she enjoyed it. Hard to explain how good just bread can be but when it comes out with a crunchy sourdough crust, is still steaming, and has the perfect chew...it just hits the spot! We settled on the pan seared cod and bay scallop ceviche for our plates and as much as we intended on sharing, we were both very satisfied with our choices. There is something so refreshing about a simple dish that is prepared so well. It was hard to watch the dishes we didn't choose be taken out to other tables because everything looked so fresh and delicious. The dining area is nice, definitely can get a little loud but they did really well with the space given to get seats available and still make their own comfy space with its own character. We tried the s'mores cake for dessert and it too was excellent. Rich without being too much. I think that the price was very reasonable for farm fresh and handmade dishes. Actually, more than reasonable...I even said I wish we could come back tomorrow for dinner. We will be back in October, you can count on that!

The theme was "Yes, Chef: An exploration of culinary icons through a cocktail lens." Each drink was inspired by or dedicated to a famous culinary icon, and you can read about each one in the index. We each ordered one drink from each section. From the Opening, I chose the Diaspora Club, which was so refreshing and delicious. Then from the Principals, I chose the Chingona, which was a little bit spicy and savory but still so refreshing. To Finish, I chose the Chocolatier Cosmo, which came with a tiny house-made salted dark chocolate. I loved all three cocktails I ordered, especially the chocolatier cosmo because it was perfectly sweet and went so well with the small piece of chocolate. For food, we started off with the crispy pork belly milk bread. For my entree, I ordered the miso butter gnocchi. It was kind of on the salty side but I still really liked it. The apple sofrito added a bit of sweetness to it. For dessert, we had to get the rhubarb coffee cake, which came with strawberry ice cream. Omg one of the best desserts I've ever had!! I never thought of combining cinnamon coffee cake with rhubarb or strawberry but it's perfect, and I might have to make something like that soon. Service was great and we were seated right away at 8pm on a Saturday despite not having a reservation. Food and drinks came out promptly and timed perfectly. We spent about 1.5 hours here and we never felt rushed.
