We enjoy Vinology for the farm to table fresh menu offerings and seasonal changes they offer. The have a small section of tables outside, which is where like to dine, during nice weather. The inside bar area is warm, cozy and dark with a very nice ambiance. We went with sharable's this evening which included: Marinated Olives, castelvetrano, cuquillo, manzillia & gordal olives marinated in citrus, cinnamon and clove. Nice portion and selection of Olives and very flavorful. We paired the Olives with a Charcuterie and Cheese tray; beehive pour me a slice cheddar, Beecher flagship smoked gruyere blend house flavored citrus goat cheese, colosseum genoa salami, maestro 600 day aged prosciutto and spianata piccante. The meats and cheeses were all very good, and great chefs choices. The board also includes fig jam and a whole grain mustard, crackers and tasted crostini's. A nice selection of wines and craft cocktails. We enjoyed a nice bottle of Chardonnay. Definitely a good venue to check out when in Ann Arbor. Our server was amazing and took great care of us.

Not to mention , service was really good. I initially ordered the braised short ribs and wasn't aware it would be drowning in a bbq looking sauce. They were so nice about letting me swap out my entree and it made me a fan. My only suggestion is that they add more description to the menu. Some entrees simply say chef favorite, which doesn't tell me the sides or that an item is covered in a sauce.

After waiting for a while, I finally said I was ready to order, and I was met with eye rolls like I was interrupting something instead of being a paying customer. I was actually in a rush, but I ended up sitting there waiting while employees focused more on a TV episode than taking my order. With three people working and only two customers in the restaurant, there was no reason for that level of inattentiveness. When I finally got my food, they asked whether I had paid already. Yes, I had paid. With barely anyone in the restaurant, it is frustrating that no one could keep track of that. On top of that, I was not given napkins, forks, silverware, or condiments and had to ask for everything, only to be looked at like I was asking for too much. The customer service was awful from start to finish. Management seriously needs to address the staff and their attitude toward customers because I will not be returning.

The staff was attentive and kept my coffee and my water filled. A+ for diner service. Also, they knew their regulars and greeted them as they came through the door. The food was perfect - two coneys and an order of fries. Fries were hot and well salted, and the coney sauce did the job. Onions and mustard were in just the right amount. I will be returning again when I'm in the area, and I definitely recommend this place if you're hankering for diner food.

For such an iconic brand like Slow's their new Ann Arbor outpost is not doing the legendary Detroit…read moreBBQ spot justice. I've been patronizing Slow's restaurants for over a decade and my latest experience at the Ann Arbor location was really disappointing. The service wasn't great and I had to flag down a waiter to order a second drink. Also, bartenders were just sticking their entire hands into drinks to drop large ice cubes . Pulled pork was fine, but my brisket and chicken were pretty awful. Brisket was dry as heck and a gross grey color. My serving of chicken was basically all gristle and was sitting in a puddle of grease. I'll still trust the Detroit area locations, but Slows A2 isn't worth the $$$ in 2026

We came for happy hour and patio seating and didn't utilize either. If there was a happy hour, it…read morewasn't advertised. Husband had a beer I had cider, it seemed there were no specials. The wind was too high to use the patio, so husband's son and I sat in the bright bar area. It is a lovely restaurant, and our server was very friendly and efficient. We started with the brisket chili because we just had to try this no bean super flavorful meaty cup. It was actually an oval ramekin of chili with melted cheddar on top. I took several bites before husband returned from his trip to the restroom, and then he ate the rest. We loved the chili! Maybe a little salty but otherwise perfect. Husband ordered the brisket and chicken combo with beans and coleslaw. The beans also had brisket in them, but a different flavor profile than the chili. The coleslaw was fresh if not unique. It came with a cornbread loaf and a pile of pickled onions and cucumbers that were really brightly flavored and super enjoyable. Son ordered half a pound of brisket and ate that (and helped his dad finish his too). He had a mac and cheese and waffle french fries as his sides, it's only complaint was he didn't like the cheese on top of the Mac which is totally personal preference. He did not order the combo plate because he ate my corn bread. I ordered the smoked barbecued salmon with green beans and cheddar grits. The grits required salt and pepper, but were tasty and devoured. The green beans had a unique mustard sauce, based on one of their barbecue sauces. Although we ate about half of them, this is probably my least favorite way to have green beans. The salmon was a very generous boneless skinless piece of fish, perfectly cooked tender not dry with a little barbecue sauce on top. I tried a bunch of the sauces and actually preferred the apple, and the spicy. It is fun that there are five different sauces on the table. The North Carolina is very thin and vinegary, which is probably good for drenching brisket. The bark on the brisket was delectable, even though son leaves this behind I ate some! This restaurant doesn't have very many reviews, they have not been open super long. Visit and give them some love! I would happily come back, but would love to see them add some happy hour discounted appetizers and drinks for my next visit.

Iron Mikes was about half full at 7 PM on a Friday. Took a seat at the bar and got my drink order taken quickly. Very low key atmosphere but clean and lively,, I was in the mood for a burger so ordered a patty melt. I was a bit surprised to see it topped with American cheese (see photo); I thought patty melts by definition used swiss. Wasn't in the mood to send it back and I figured a cheeseburger's a cheeseburger so I tucked in. And never looked back. The beef had good flavor and was cooked to a perfect medium. It was a large patty--1/2 lb., though you can get a 3/4 pounder if you're really hungry. Onions were well carmelized. The housemade chips were also great, crisped but not burnt. Had servers check back in regularly and when the time came, process my bill quickly. Iron Mike's was a treat.

Lots of old Detroit Tigers and other sports and area memorabilia around the bar. Pictures all over the walls. Dated implies worn out. I don't think it feels that way, at all. It sure isn't modern. But its nowhere near worn out. Staff was friendly and offered me a complimentary drink while I waited. They were backed up on pizza orders. After eating one. I get it. You might have to wait a little bit for your pizza, as others have noted. But, in this case... I wouldn't fault 'em for it. It's a family business and its obvious they try hard to keep their customers happy.
