It was the perfect beginning of the Christmas season spot (and throughout!) Please go check this place out. It's amazing!!

You would think it wouldn't be too hard to make this dish as it's relatively simple, but I've been to three or four of the German restaurants in our area and absolutely none of them get it right, or even close to right. The proprietor is charming and engaging, and I'm so happy to support her business. The spatzel and sauerkraut were also on point. Perhaps someday they'll be able to open a walk up restaurant, but for now I will continue to support the food truck

What wonderful people with a delicious encounter! I'm in love!…read more One of the true highlights of Festing for us this year, everything we shared was spot on authentic. What a treat! We started with pretzels that were devoured literally in seconds. That required more drink. Then we were hungry again. What a cycle. The wife spoke with Jana and Sean(?) and was thoroughly impressed. Their currywurst was wonderful, the kraut, perfect and the whole experience a great joy. We would love to come back and do it again (I'm so stunned, I'm pinching myself). 10/25

We got the chicken wings with honey BBQ. My nephews loved them! and they're connoisseurs. The star of the show however was the chicken parm. This dish is really good!! It's much more than you might expect from a neighborhood bar/restaurant. The sauce was excellent, thick and not too acidic. The pasta was al dente and the chicken? Crispy & well seasoned yet tender and moist. There was enough mozzarella for two dinners and yes, it was perfect on this dish. The prices vs portions were very reasonable. I definitely recommend The Commercial House.

We were so enamored that I did forget to take pictures of the entrees- guess we will have to head back! On Saturday night it's prime rib special....

After looking at different caterers, we chose Pizza Replicator to cater the party of 85. We were having trouble working with the venue to allow the caterer to find a place to cook the pizzas. Max contacted the venue and worked out all the details. On the day of the event, he and his staff arrived promptly and started with the appetizers which were outstanding. Once he transitioned to pizza, the pizzas were continuously replaced until everyone had eaten. Everyone raved about the food. We couldn't be happier about hiring Max and his team and couldn't recommend him enough.

There are all kinds of pizza places…read more If Ann Arbor has a pizza style, it's thick, cheesy, and really meant for the college crowd. Detroit's pizza was conceived with auto workers in mind. In New York, slices are for folding and eating while on the go, because... well... I guess that's what capitalism does to you. Pizza Replicator is replicating none of these pizzas. Nope. It's just a Star Trek TNG inspired pizza concept where Max Sussman gets to have a little bit of fun with seasonal ingredients, dough, and some portable pizza ovens. Personally, I love to support pizza innovation. Max's pizza is about as good as it can be considering it's cooked up in the back of a coffee shop on any given Sunday. More than anything, I want Max to get a permanent home here in A2 with a legit Neapolitan oven where he can really get some better color on the bottoms of those pies. I've had a few of these so far. Italian sausage with pepperoncini, provolone, and broccoli rabe. Brussels and guanciale with aged gouda, fresh mozzarella, and garlic. Soujouk and Za'atar with onion and green zhug. Asparagus and gruyere with meyer lemon, caramelized onion, and pine nuts. Spanish Chorizo, manchego, roasted peppers. My favorite one to date was the meyer lemon. Dang, that was deliciously unexpected! But those crispy nuggets of guanciale were dynamite too! Ultimately, these are designed to be take out pies, and I'm just not a take out pizza kinda guy. Because I believe pizza is best when it's fresh hot now, I grab my pie, b-line to my parked car, and eat the pizza in the driver's seat like a savage beast. Even when I have shown up early for my scheduled pizza pick up, I have had little luck in getting super hot pies with crisp edges and well colored bottoms. Recently I learned that one can request the pizza "well done" and I am looking forward to giving that a try. But I love the culinary creativity and I am happy to keep trying Max's new pies when my Sunday schedule lines up with available pizza slots. One has to keep an eye on the Pizza Replicator Instagram page and move quickly, because these things sell out. I have gotten over my FOMO, and am happy to simply sample these pizzas when the stars align. Which, you know, is why I'm comfortable to share this with the Yelp Community. Max's efforts are hardly a secret as they were just recently covered in the food press. But yet there is no listing on Yelp?

Another far away drive for us to Hall Rd East of M-53. The kids wouldn't steer me wrong! In thinking back, the wait staff were very helpful. There were a couple of items I was not familiar with. My oldest niece and nephew spoke Tagalog with one woman for the duration of our visit. Great job on the Pancit noodles. Cooked exactly as they should be. The whole dish was a winner. Once again I'm left confused. The boys said it was a vegetarian dish, but there was a ton of pork in it!?!? Maybe it's supposed to be vegetarian and they knew I wouldn't eat it that way?? Matters not, it was delicious. The lumpia is crazy addicting and the Bistek was tender, juicy and full of flavour. DO NOT walk out of there without at least sampling the lumpia or the skewers. 07/25
