This is such a unique concept for a restaurant, to base your menu around potatoes. They have fries, baked potatoes, mashed potatoes and tater tots. With that they can make it into a poutine or bowl. They also offer safe options like burgers, wings and tender if you are not feeling the main items. I was feeling a bit adventurous and decided to go with the jerk chicken baked potato. It came with pineapple, onions and cheese curds. Surprisingly I enjoyed it, but I was also really hungry and probably would have enjoyed anything put in front of me. I should have tried a simple poutine with just fries and gravy, but as it stands I think this place is good enough for repeat visit. read more

Dreamberry - mix of strawberry, blueberry, pineapple, orange and lemon ice cream. It's both slightly tart but sweet, consider it similar to a orange/lemon sherbet. The Strawberry Mango - both flavors are creamy and layered, the mango is velvety sweet while the strawberry is sweet and tart balancing the drink. Both options are authentic to their description. No complaints with the service. read more

Small space, but seating is nicely arranged: 7 four seat tables & a high 5 seater bar along the window facing Michigan. Food is placed on the counter with the register on trays for you to pick up & take to your chosen table. I thought i ordered the gyro poutine, but the canadian way was on the receipt, which was seen next to the register when the food was picked up. (I wasn't asked if I wanted a copy & I didn't request a copy like I normally do bc for some reason I expected an email or txt, but I got nothing.) I was disappointed that I didn't get what I wanted so that pretty much made me indifferent to my meal. The burgers all come with fries, so I wound up dumping my fries into the poutine. read more

Potato Pit is a cozy little spot located in Dearborn on Michigan Ave. There's a handful of tables to sit inside and enjoy your goodness You order at counter & wait for your goodness to be hand crafted. We ordered the Original Poutine - amazing hand cut fries & the perfect ratio of melted cheese curds to solid topped with yummy beef gravy. The juicy chicken was cooked to perfection. I washed it all down with a carrot beet ginger cold press juice. Everything was perfect. We will definitely be back! read more

It's nice to see another poutine place open up after La Fork closed down. I always found their poutine to be underwhelming, so coming into Potato Pit I was hoping for something better. This was for lunch on a weekday and there was a steady stream of customers ordering to-go. Poutine is one of those dishes that you really have to eat on the spot to get the best experience, so I guess those other customers don't really care about freshness too much? At any rate, I ordered the classic. Canadian Way Poutine ($13.99) - The fries are good, crispy where the gravy hasn't touched, soft and soaked with gravy in the places that are covered. They are fried to order so everything is fresh. The gravy has a decent richness and is not too salty. This is a good sign, since over-salting the gravy is a major problem I've noticed with other poutine in Metro Detroit. It's served hot and steaming when poured over the fries and curds. The curds are the weakest part of Potato Pit's poutine rendition. They are served directly from the fridge resulting in most of them being cold even when the piping hot gravy soaks them. They cool down the gravy like ice so that the entire dish is only slightly warm rather than piping hot. Unlike what some other reviews state, the curds are not fresh and have absolutely zero squeak. On the plus side, they are pretty generous with the quantity of cheese curds added and the portion size is decent. Unfortunately, $14 is still very expensive for what you get. It is nice to see an actual poutinerie on this side of the river. I think the current 3.5 rating is pretty appropriate, given the food and pricing. I personally was debating between a 3 and a 4. While I wouldn't go again mainly due to cost, it's one of the better poutines you can get without crossing over to Windsor. Edit: Be sure to ask for a receipt and double check how much they charge. There is something wrong with their POS. I specifically left a $1 tip on the machine (it's a counter service establishment) - I even wrote down the total it displayed on the screen in my notes. My credit card bill is showing a 10% tip instead of $1. Not a big difference, but it's a difference nonetheless. read more

We ordered through DoorDash the food was still warm when it arrived, it also arrived on time!! But the food was beyond what I expected, we ordered the Gyro Poutine Baked Potato that had the baked potato that was chopped up into nice size chunks, plenty of gyro meat, melted cheese curds, brown gravy, green onions, diced tomatoes, and sour cream! This was soooo freakin delicious, I didn't waste no time eating it b4 I decided I wanted to leave my review (lol) my granddaughter ordered the Buffalo Chicken Poutine with grilled chicken, brown gravy, buffalo sauce, creamy ranch n green onions. She texted me stating "this is sooo good NaNa" Needless to say I'm sure we'll b ordering again, hopefully soon!! I also ordered a Hibiscus & Berries drink n that too was super tasty!! These bowls NEVER had a chance !! If you haven't tried this place, definitely do cuz if not ur missing out! read more

The poutine at this place is legit! The original stuff is amazing but there is a whole menu of toppings - steak, shrimp, nacho cheese, veggies...pretty much whatever you want. If you're a burger fan, don't miss the halloumi burger. Magical. Great spot for lunch. They have a lunch combo with a poutine/potato bowl and "refresher" (flavored lemonade/juice...very fresh btw) for $15. Also check out some hidden gems...fish & chips, funnel fries for dessert, and fried veggies (pickles, cauliflower, etc.). read more

The first time I had poutine was not a great experience so I went into this slightly wary but I am happy to say that Potato Pit completely rid any wariness I had. I had some regular poutine to start, it was fresh, hot and tasty. Also tried the funnel cake fries and boy oh boy I could have ate those all night. The space itself was very cute with some adorable murals on the wall and you can see right into the kitchen space. I ordered a build your own bowl to go and the portion size was well worth the money. I even had enough left over for the next morning to cook in an egg with it for breakfast. The owner was actually the person who rung me up and he was very nice and felt like he was genuinely happy to have us there. read more

Food was okay. Food portion good size. It can be shared by two people unless you're hungry. Wasn't busy when I went. Food service area was clean. Only gave 4 stars because it's not the same as the really Canadian version of poutine. Bring Canadian and living in Michigan. This was the closest place to get your craving out the way then driving over to Canada. read more

I'm a picky person and I've eaten a lot of poutine. I kept seeing this place on Instagram so we took a drive down to Dearborn to check it out. As we arrived, midafternoon on a Saturday, my husband said he hoped we wouldn't be the only people there - we were the only people there. I ordered the classic Canadian poutine my husband got the Buffalo chicken poutine. It was freshly made to order and it was really good. Exactly what we expected. The guy working there was friendly and the decor was nice and clean. Bathrooms spotless. The only thing I would change is to not have the table cleaning rag on display and I wasn't that jazzed about my $5 mint lemonade. 5 stars are for perfect poutine in a perfectly nice restaurant. read more

Looks like this place hasnt been here very long or that i just didnt know it exist.. Food was tasty, unique options to put on french fries.. portions are okay for the price...wouldnt go out my way to say they the greatest.. but with various options you can choose from its better than ur local fry joint.. Only issue i had was the service, the kid at the counter looked lost, didnt seem like there was any communication between anyone.. a bit long on the wait time for a plate of loaded fries.. read more

As a Canadian I was really excited to see that this area finally got around to poutine! Sadly it was an extremely disappointing poutine. Very surprised to see that the poutine is literally twice as pricey as Windsor and maybe 20% as good. $15 classic poutine with the soggy fries and the gravy is lacking. Cheese was squeaky tho. Ate here twice to give it a chance, unfortunately didn't hit the spot like I wanted it to. Willing to try again if they do something to their fries, gravy, and pricing read more

If you like fries soaked in oil this is your place. Nothing special I wish they would serve fresh fries. read more

I've never had poutine as I became a vegetarian a million years ago, before I knew it existed. I was thrilled to find out that they make their brown gravy vegetarian, so I got the Original Poutine bowl. I went with three coworkers and everybody was very happy with their food. One, who has had poutine before, tried mine and said, "It's legit." We're already planning on returning to try more dishes. The man who works there greeted me when I came in and was very helpful and pleasant. It's a smallish restaurant with a cute potato theme including a wall hanging of the Ambassador Bridge. read more
