Really cool menu. Food is fresh, well prepared and a good value. The staff was very friendly and helpful. As the menu has a lot of options, I had lots of questions and the nice guy taking my order was really nice and patient. I really enjoyed the quesadilla and grilled sausage. I couldn't eat my sandwich so I took it with me after finishing the other food eating in. The sandwich was on point and tasty! The Halloween season decorations were fun but the lighting is a definite ambience killer. Place was clean but the partially lit bare fluorescent tube lighting needs replacement. That won't stop me from going back though. A few more tables or a couple booths along the wall would make it more inviting, but that's not what I go to a restaurant for, it's the food. The food and the nice people here are worth the trip. read more

We've been coming to this wonderful establishment since we bought our house in OP in 2018. The food is always on-point; we've never had anything bad from here [I don't think it's in their nature!] The minute you walk in the door, you're treated like family. The food is on-par with what my friends' mamas made down in the city back n the day. It's all comfort food, tbh. So much homemade stuff, too! Don't sleep on the gumbo, the BBDs [#iykyk, but they're beef dip sammies & they're amazing!], or the amazing salads! We're a fam of 4: 2 adults & my teen/20-something daughter. My older daughter is picky as heck & she still always finds something she loves to eat here. My husband and I are forced to eat on the healthier side bc of health issues & we're addicted to some of the salads. Everything is made with love & heart! You defo won't go hungry either! Can't recommend Pik Nik enough! The owner & her fam are amazing! read more

Overly expensive, food was a little small and dry. I expected super food considering the prices. I would not recommend this place. I got the 9 mile club, which had less filling than a homemade sandwich. My wife got the Big Willie Philly, which was tasty but also small. I also got a chicken cordon Bleu pita, which was dry even with the house sauce. read more

I love visiting this family owned business whenever I visit Detroit. Although wait times can be long if you don't call your order in ahead of time, everything is fresh and made with love. They cook and bake everything. And when I tell you it's the bomb???!!! Everything is the bomb. My favs: seafood gumbo (Fridays and Saturdays only); strawberry shortcake cupcake, banana pudding, ALL the smoothies, and turkey chilli. read more

They are open until 8 PM today, Grill shut down by 7:30 PM. It's next to a sushi place. It's mostly a carry out spot. We ordered the Greek salad with grilled chicken, Greek dressing and a chicken Cobb salad with Vidalia vinaigrette. The cookies, brownie, parfait and muffins all look good. Keeping it simple since it's late and I am not terribly hungry either. The Cobb salad was good for my hubby. The chicken is cold and a bit dry. The Greek salad isn't bad. Same cold and dry chicken. The dressing is decent. The yellow pepper is potent and tasted a bit off to me, happy there was only one. I let the woman behind the counter know. Service is warm and friendly. The plating and presentation here is quite good, even for our carry out containers. read more

I finally was in the area to visit Pik Nik Basket to see what the hubbub has been :). I didn't get the standard sandwich but, a veggie quesadilla. I wasn't hungry enough for the sandwich and the quesadilla was a perfect size. It tasted great! Plenty of spinach, some cheese prominent. What was a great surprise was I took away dessert, the red velvet cupcake with cream cheese frosting. Sinfully good!! I will return for a sandwich but, will be tough to decide which one!!

Customer service is impeccable! Top tier. The menu is large enough for there to be options for everyone! And so many vegan options! I don't eat meat outside of fish so I love that! I can eat and so can the kids all on ONE PLACE! If you're a mom of more than one, you already know how amazing it is when you find somewhere that everyone can eat on one stop! I love the smoothies! They are filling, fresh, and really get me through the work day. No additives, no sugared up fruit juices, no ice so it won't get watered down. Just frozen fruit, almond milk, fresh herbs and ingredients and LOVE :)! And the ambiance is family friendly, date friendly, laid back and honestly just perfect for what ever you've got in mind. The owner is friendly, customer oriented and provides a culture in here like no other. I love this black owned business and the food is SO GOOD!

Been 2x. Gumbo, pastrami & turkey sandwich, lemon/blueberry cheesecake parfait were all good and satisfying. The gumbo can be a tad spicy but once mixed well it wasn't so bad. Tried the nachos on the first visit, honestly didn't care for the tortilla chips used or cheese sauce. Meat was seasoned ok. But definitely will be back.

We had the pita chips, tuna and beef sandwiches, and cookies. They make all of it themselves. The owners have been catering for years. Nice people. Great food, pretty good prices.

There's nothing that can stop these guys. Great menu, food feels and tastes like your family made it, above and beyond excellent service. Stumbled across this place and was welcomed with opened arms. Mr. Will and Ms. Nikki and the family has generously given my family and I all the love they could possibly give inside each and every dish I've ordered. From the the Turkey Chili to Tomato soup, all have been made in house and fresh that day along with their delicious pastries like the Strawberry Cheesecake Muffin to Peach & Apple Cobbler. The space inside is roomy and even has a chess table in front of you ever want to spark up a game if you're waiting. Cant forget to mention Aliyah and DJ whose helped guide me to try different dishes and arrangements to satisfy my family's needs as we're always open to try new things from these guys. They're always open for constructive criticism towards service and food suggestions that the people truly love like the Blueberry & Apple cobbler. See you guys next week! read more

I came in here one time for lunch from work, and instantly felt very silly due to the fact that it was looking like a children's play area/ immitation piknik area. I ordered a turkey chili and a Greek chicken salad, it took quite a while for them to have it done and I was the only one there that had ordered anything at the time, the other person there was already having there meal. Aside from the very long wait, the food was very bland and didn't have much flavors in it. The chili needed a lot of love and the salad too. They didn't have salt or pepper shakers for tables so she put some in a mini cup for me and I also wanted a lime wedge to try and doctor up the bland chili. It didn't work. The lady and other younger woman there were very kind, nice, and polite and their service was excellent. Unfortunately the food and silliness of the shop ruined it for me. read more

In search of something healthful, I found Pik Nik basket while searching Yelp. I had seen the sign on a small strip of stores on 9 Mile, but never ventured to see what it was. Boy, I should have. I've been driving further to get smoothies, when I could have been patronizing this little gem. I went in close to closing last night and was greeted by a lovely family who welcomed me warmly. We chatted about the many healthful options on their menu and even discussed several other topics while I waited on my order. The young lady who served as the cashier was very sweet and humorous. Stopping in made my night and absolutely sealed the deal for me coming back often. I ordered a smoothie which was chock full of goodness including peaches, spinach and kale. I can't remember them, but it also contained other fruits. The combination was divine and I can't wait to have another. I also had chicken salad on a croissant. The salad was fresh and flavorful. The croissant was flaky and tasty. The total for my sandwich and smoothie was about $12.50. I was very pleased with the entire experience and will definitely Yelp about it with folks who live in the area. read more

I've been a patron since they opened. I love their energy. My favorite item is their tuna sandwich served on a croissant with swiss cheese. I've never had a soup there I didn't totally enjoy. The gumbo is off the chain good. Their baked good are always a hit for me. No I didn't enjoy the seafood grilled cheese, but I knew when ordering I was a purist. They are on the delivery platforms.

If you are looking for a solid sandwich or salad this is the place! Away from the hustle and bustle of downtown, this family owned establishment is a great addition to the neighborhood. Their soups are delightful too! I had the chicken salad sandwich on a croissant and it was fresh and delicious. It was large enough to split between two people. They do let you try the soup before you order it, plus! I had the turkey chili and it was very yummy. I just wish they offered a smaller size as they only come in 16oz. But that's ok, enough for lunch tomorrow! I tried the seafood gumbo, and for not being a very adventurous eater it was delicious too! They also offer fresh fruit smoothies, nachos and fresh baked goods! They were so friendly and welcoming. Will definitely be back. read more

While cruising through the heart of Royal Oak, I noticed this little deli shop, calling my name…read morepast apartment buildings and local scenery. They have an extensive menu to include vegetarian options which was nice to see. They also have many local brands to include chips, sodas, and other small local business products (caramelized nuts, baked goods, etc.)! On the topic of local businesses, they also had a board which allowed local owners to post business cards and event alerts, fantastic for drawing the community together. Now, I ordered a Reuben as a lover of corned beef and sauerkraut. It was delicious and sizeable, a fair portion size for the money as well. The chips were also delicious having gone for the salt, pepper, and onion variety. A solid crunch and bursting with flavor. Among the positives I have two negatives, both of which are not adequate enough to lower their star ranking. Firstly, it took around 20-25 minutes to get our food after ordering. I rarely hold timing against a restaurant as having worked in food, I know lunch rush exists and things happen. To mitigate this (for those in the area) I believe they have an online ordering system, which I would recommend utilizing! Secondly, they do not have indoor seating, so it is a very grab and go type establishment. This is counteracted by the multitude of benches around Royal Oak, though it would be nice to have some amount of seating, especially for those with accessibility needs and those waiting on their food. Overall, Oak House Deli is solid and delicious and I will definitely stop by again when I am in the area!

I always say that my teachers are heroes without capes so the theme of this truck was so fitting. Every year, I try to do something extra special for my staff. This year, I booked the Hero Or Villain Food Truck. I was able to select 6 different sandwiches for my staff to choose from and options such as loaded fries & soft drinks. These sandwiches were the BOMB! Freshly made and grilled with such unique options: Blackfire (Steak, bacon, egg, mozz, grilled peppers, onion & drizzled with a spicy sriracha mayo), Thor (Turkey, bacon & Cheddar, mayo), Kingpen (Grilled Chicken, mozzarella & pesto aioli), Captain Planet (Marinated Mushrooms, Grilled Onions, Mozz, Red Pepper & pesto aioli), Deathstroke (Steak, grilled peppers, provolone, onion & mayo), Hawkeye (Turkey, swiss, sauerkraut, pickles, 1000 island dressing). These sandwiches were served on grilled sourdough, marble rye or a hoagie bun. My favorite was Thor but the Hawkeye was equally as delicious. I didn't have a chance to try all of them but everyone was raving about their sandwiches. The two ladies working the food truck were amazing. Serving up 50+ sandwiches in 1 1/2 hours was seamless. I've been told that this food truck travels all over the place. If you are lucky enough to try them, trust me, you will be in sandwich heaven! If you are booking an event, I highly recommend Hero or Villain Food Truck. Until next time, #catwoman

This review is for their food truck, which I've been to a couple times…read more They've got fun sandwiches inspired by superheroes and villains in Marvel and DC comics: perfect for nerds like me! I will say, it is pricy and can take a long time to make since it's made fresh to order, especially if there's any kind of line. The Kingpin sandwich was delicious and my go-to: chicken, mozzarella, spinach, tomatoes, and pesto aioli on grilled sourdough. It's a great combo of ingredients. I also have tried their waffle fries are solid. I would love to try other varieties at their home base in Ferndale (which has more variety). But I highly recommend checking this place out. Great quality and great tasting sandwiches!

Waffle fries were super delicious. Hot, seasoned well, and great space to eat in.

The store was very clean, but sort of shabby chic. Run down in an old fashioned way, if that makes sense. Lots of beer choices, good wine selection, lots of last minute items for cooking or an impromptu get together. Quality meat and cheeses. They did have a large selection of the spice kits for cooking, that used to have their own store down the road. The pizza was not great.

Good, not great. I'd eat here again if someone else wanted to go, but I wouldn't seek it out. I…read morewould choose five guys over little ghost. The Burger: The patty is the highlight. It has perfect density, is well-seasoned, and is easily 15% better than a Five Guys patty. The Toppings: The lack of customization is frustrating. No extra options or toppings are allowed. It comes with American cheese, shredded iceberg lettuce (not a fan), and way too much sauce. The sauce itself is okay, but the burger was drowning in it. The Fries: Good firmness, they definitely hold their shape better than Five Guys but Five Guys' Cajun fries still win on flavor. The Value: I paid about $20 for a burger, fries, and a tip. It feels expensive, but with Five Guys at $18 and a McDonald's Big Arch meal at $14 these days, the price is fairly standard for the current market.

Just realized I didn't take any photos of my food lol…read more 3.5/5 Came here for lunch today after wanting to try this place out. It's a very small burger joint with minimum seating. Ordered a single, a double, two drinks and fries. Totally was 34$. Very expensive I feel. Food was good though. I did enjoy the burger. The single was enough. They don't have any toppings for the burger besides cheese, lettuce and their ghost sauce (basically mayo, pickles and maybe tomatoes). They do have packets of ketchup and mustard if you ask. Fries were fresh and you can tell. This was my favorite thing. They were actually very good. I didn't care for the fancy sauce too much though. But the size of the fries are shareable I feel. Overall I would come here again and try other food. But, with the lack of toppings for the price, it would steer me away.

This place was Wow!!!! We have been wanting to try this place for so long, but it never worked out…read moreuntil this weekend, and yes, we will be back with the rest of the fam! The people working here were so friendly and personable with literally everyone that walked in the door. The service was top notch. It is also the most adorable place giving vibes of Lamy's food counter at Henry Ford Museum. I loved all of the options on the menu and it was so hard just picking a couple items to try. We had chicken tacos. They were so good and so fresh, I loved the sauce on top. Honestly, I am not sure if it was cheese or a sour cream type mixture, but it was creamy and flavorful. I also had the torta which was absolutely incredible. It had the same chicken as the taco. The chicken was slow cooked or stewed and shredded and was so flavorful, like a homecooked chef's kiss. The bread was fresh. I loved the sauce poured over it, making it a dipped and soaked sandwich. The carrots and cilantro, sliced radishes and sliced fresh jalapenos added a level of crunch, freshness and deeper flavor profile. I would want to get this every time. We also tried their delicious "curly" fries, which were like julienned shoestring fries fired fresh. It seemed like every dish was made fresh and right in front of you. So worth it, plus the prices are great. I would love to try their fried chicken plate, their breakfast sandwiches, and their other desserts. We talked to the man behind the counter who seemed like maybe a manager. He gave us their famous chocolate chip cookie to try. It was fresh baked and delicious. I would love to take home more of those. It looked so simple but was better than many bakeries specializing in cookies alone. He also gave us an second order of fries to take home with my leftovers, just top notch kindness and service. This man told us that OWL owns other restaurants and we would probably like them. I am open to trying more of their group but I do want to return here. This is one of those diners you would find being profiled for best kept secret or gourmet home cooked foods under the guise of fast food.
