    I am a complete addict for Italian beef. In this place, definitely serves my craving Italian beef was an amazing sandwich wonderful tender beef served on a roll that held up to all the juices that were coming off of the meat. They had a nice balance of heat and sweet with the peppers, a fantastic beef sandwich. The french fries that offered were fantastic as well. Can't wait to make a return trip.

    I couldn't even tell you what my thoughts were. I was too busy, chewing and admiring how amazing French dips in heaven must be because this is got to be really close.

    Toasted ravioli
    Abhilash T.

    If you want a sandwich that'll knock you out in a good way and fill you up, this place is a must try. You order at one window and pickup at the other. They were quick but not so quick that you think it's some microwaved nonsense. It's delicious, the beef is fantastic but the hot peppers make it even more enjoyable. I'm not someone that can handle a ton of heat so when I say hot peppers, they're not over the top or unbearable. They are a delicious complimentary piece to the amazing beef. I will warn you to eat it quickly, if you are driving some distance before you bite into it, the sub bun will be soggy. But even then it's delicious. The toasted ravioli is a great side, it's crunchy and if you eat it too quickly the insides will burn your mouth like a good old pizza roll. But man, what a spot and what amazing food, definitely put this place on your list.

    In my humble opinion, this is Theo place to go for an authentic Chicago-style Italian Beef, a la "The Bear!" Matt was born and raised in Chicago, and brought his Italian family recipe here in 2015. Initially operating out of a food truck, they took over historic Doug's Delight Ice Cream Shop, located in Hazel Park, in 2020. There is no indoor seating, but there are outdoor picnic benches with umbrellas. They have kept the ice cream shop, and feature special flavors, such as banana. Their Italian beef sandwich ($13.50 - $14.50) comes with either spicy or mild peppers. You can order it dry, wet, or dipped where the whole sandwich is submerged in broth. I always have it dipped, but that's not very doable in my opinion if you are getting it to take home. They also offer great appetizers like deep-fried ravioli.

    This is an outdoor area next to a combo of an ice cream stand and a beef sandwich shop. Picnic tables scattered around, you go to one window to order and pay, and another to pick up after 20 minutes or so. Most people are there for the Italian Beef, dry, wet, or dipped. They also have pork sandwiches, and fries with different toppings and some other sides. We went Sat at noon and they were crowded. Very limited lot parking, and side street parking. When we were there the cops were working the parking hard to find violations they could ticket. It was really good food. Maybe not quite worth the price and the wait (40 minutes between in line to order and waiting for the food), but good.

    In my mind, a staple in the metro area... Matt & Mo's always has great tasting quality fresh hot food. Always. I've been five or so times now, tried many items on the menu, never had food I didn't like. This is THE place in the metro area for Italian beef. There may be others that have it, but are they as good? I don't know. All I know is at least a couple times I've been I've seen folks from Chi-town walk-up and give compliments on the Italian beef, and Chicagoans will keep it real about Italian beef. I've enjoyed the sausage on buttered garlic bread as well as the chi-dog and the coney when you're in the mood for those. The damage can get a little high for fast food but it ain't your normal fast food. Everything is made with care... and they have ice cream too.

    Loved the dipped Italian beef here!! It's so tasty and filling. The toasted raviolis are also incredible and come with a marinara dipping sauce. The service was so friendly and did everything with a smile. This is place is takeout only so you can place your order online ahead of time or walk up to the window when you get there!

    The Chicago dog
    Cindy S.

    Looking for a fun lunch adventure, we found an Eater Detroit article that recommended Matt and Mo's as a great sandwich spot. I lived in Chicago for 15 years and the hubs was born and raised in the Chicago suburbs, so we were pumped to find a possible new hot dog and Italian beef spot. We ordered a Chicago dog and an Italian beef, and split the two. The Italian beef was out of this world and the Chicago hotdog was the best Chicago dog we have had outside of Chicago. Our ten year old son enjoyed his plain hot dog with ketchup. The only negative was that when we asked for a refill on our pop, the young woman that waited on us said she didn't think they did refills. It was a sunny but windy and chilly day so we ate in our car, but I'd love to come back on a nice day and eat at the picnic tables that they have. We will for sure be back!

    Dipped Italian Beef sandwich with both hot & sweet peppers
    Andy L.

    Inspired by watching The Bear on Hulu I decided to seek out an Italian beef sandwich near by. Matt & Mo's shares space with an ice cream shop in Hazel Park. The walk up window attendant was very nice and helpful answering all my questions. I ordered the Italian beef with hot & sweet peppers, dipped. I also ordered a side of fries with the honey sriracha & 1000 Island dipping sauce. It was a very good meal. The one thing I noticed about the Sando was the meat was a bit dry even though it was dipped. I did use some of the dipping sauce on the Sando and it was pretty good. I would go and try it again for sure. The peppers were good with the dipped bread and meat.

    Poutine!! Get this!

The servers are all well trained, and highly professional. The food is fantastic. The menu is the standout; it is very creative and has something for everyone. Let's start with their breakfast. This is probably the best breakfast/brunch place in town. Too bad they're only open weekends for breakfast. Whenever we have family back in town or friends from out of town, this is our go to place. Casual relaxed, friendly with quality food. If you haven't been here for breakfast, I would highly recommend it. The only comment I have is they don't open for breakfast until a little bit later in the morning. Usually, there is a line out out front waiting for them to open. We've had most things on the menu and to be truthful, not one thing has disappointed. Dinner: we don't get here too often for dinner because in my mind, this is our go to breakfast place. Last week we tried it for dinner and again, very pleasantly surprised at the professionalism of the wait staff, the quality of the food, and the overall dining experience. Whoever transformed his place from a hipster beer hall to a quality dining experience did a great job. Kudos to them!

From the moment we walked in, you could feel it. Great music, lively crowd, and just an overall fun atmosphere that makes you want to stay awhile. The food coming out of the kitchen looked amazing -- everything was plated beautifully and smelled even better. Even just watching dishes hit the tables around us had me planning what I'm ordering next time. What's cool is I'm actually in the area pretty often on Sundays because I go to a laundromat nearby, and it always looks like they're hosting a really solid brunch crowd. After seeing the vibe firsthand, I can definitely see that being a go-to brunch spot. They also keep things exciting throughout the week. Every Thursday at 7 PM, they host trivia with Jonathan from Quizzo -- six rounds covering different topics with chances to win prizes like gift cards. That's the kind of midweek plan that turns a regular Thursday into something to look forward to. And if that's not enough, axe throwing is part of the experience too, in partnership with Detroit Axe Ferndale. Axe throwing has seriously become one of the most fun social activities out right now, and having expert Axe Masters guide you through it makes it even better. There's nothing like that satisfying thunk when the axe hits the target. Between the food, the drinks, the games, and the overall energy, The Corner Grill is more than just a bar and grill -- it's an experience. Definitely a spot I'll be back to.

The food is not the main attraction here, but we thought it was surprisingly pretty good. The burger was perfectly cooked and seasoned. The garlic green beans were delicious, but the portion size was comical. There were seven tiny green beans on the plate. We did order a second round to get our fill of veggies. They have a "gamemaster" who helps you select from the hundreds of games they have available. You can reserve a game table online in advance for $3 per person and that reserves you two hours of game play time. The restrooms are a little nightmarish. Literally in a dark, damp basement. Other than that, really enjoyed our evening here.
