    Fish and chips !! So good !!!

    The fish is really excellent. You've gotta get there a little early or you'll have to stand in line for a while. But it's well worth it. The people are really nice. We keep going back. It's a very good place to go.

    Located on Five Mile in a strip mall type complex with a lot of parking. We went on a Friday night, which wasn't super smart. Inside is a slightly divey dim long bar, lots of tables, a side room, and a really nice side patio with great looking brick and roll up thick metal shutters (this is an elevated crime risk area). Pretty good craft beer list, made even better for being located where it is. Pretty good prices. Pretty good food. The staff were nice, and fast. The issue was the patrons. As I said, this was Friday night, but they were pretty jerky. Rude, as in won't move so people can order, saving bar seats for people who aren't there yet, throwing a shoulder in case you may get to the bathroom first. Sort of the worst of the Thursday night college bar scene, only full of union workers who didn't get into the big three.

    Great food and consistent friendly and attentive staff. Wonderful place to meet and greet friends.

    Great place for burgers and reubens. Sucks that they don't take credit cards, but you won't be disappointed in the great food and service.

    One of the best burgers in Detroit. All their food is solid. A great local bar experience. Don't forget to bring cash!

The girls at the Enterprise counter of DTW recommended this place as representational of Detroit area fast food. I was told to order the coney dog. A long serene drive down Telegraph and finally, I turn into the driveway that belongs to Nicky D's. The interior is pure 90s liminal nostalgia creepshow (I mean this in the best way). A formidable barrier of plexi separates gen pop from the employees. And those employees, they're actually cooking. Technically, the layout is fast food, but they're doing more than most short order cooks around this country. I got me one of them coney dogs and also a fish cod sammich.... Ok, here's the thing Detroit, the coney dog is not special. A dog with chili, mustard and onions is delicious, ok ok, it is delicious, but is it particularly Detroit? In actual fact, that is a standard dog for many regions. The fish cod sando smacked. That batter or dredge they put on it was crisped up right and had a numberless amount of nooks and crannies. The fish itself was moist and perfectly flaked. Also the service was nice. The girl at the register was like royalty in the way of her manners and comportment. And they are slammed busy.
