( i don't know her name but if you see this thank you!!!)

    Over priced small salad
    Emily S.

    Over Priced is an understatement! The salad's already start at $10. You used to get certain toppings included. Now you only get one topping including from a small selection and the rest are .50¢ each. This doesn't sound like much but before you know it you have a small $17 salad. Today was my last salad from here, I won't be back with these expensive changes.

    Yay! More new things in T-Town/Woodhaven! I'm a huge salad eater, so naturally I was really looking forward to trying this place out. My mom and I went during a weekday and brought my newborn son with us. We both ordered the first item we noticed on the menu--a salad made with spinach and crab meat, tossed with a wasabi-like dressing. I believe it was called "the Alaska." So let's break down how everything works here: First, you pick what you want. Next, your salad is built in front of you. Think about it like Subway but for salads. For my particular salad, everything was chopped except the crab, which was added on top at the end. Please note that the wasabi dressing has a KICK big time! My nose was definitely running while eating it, so you may want to sample it before trying. The one employee suggested this option and noted that it was strong. I appreciated the honesty. I happen to love hot and spicy food, and also love wasabi, so this was right up my alley. There are only two size options to chose from: Baby and Big (or large..something along those lines do don't quote me on it). The large is huge, so next time I will be ordering a baby. The drawbacks: the price and the chilly environment. I thought it was on the high end for a salad, over 9 dollars. Also, the ac was so cold. Im glad we brought blankets for the newborn because they were needed. One other thing I noticed is that some employees were a little unsure of how to make the salads. Mine turned out great, but maybe some additional training to help their knowledge and confidence would be a good idea. My mom enjoyed her salad as well. She ordered a tomato based soup and had good things to say. We will be back! I'm glad to see this tasty addition to the downriver food lineup!

    This is my latest Go To spot. I am following WW. A Chicken Caesar salad with Caesar Egg Dressing is delicious and 4 points!! (It also comes with bread which I usually don't eat at this meal.). I add beets to my order sometimes for 50 cents; absolutely love this salad and could enjoy it 3-4 times a week. Everything tastes so fresh here. Buy 2 items, i.e. soup & salad, get $1 off. Also, Planet Fitness members show their cards and get $1 off purchase. For the quality of food, I don't find The Big Salad pricey at all. Everything is top quality and fresh. See a photo of a recent purchase receipt. There's also a Build Your Own Salad Choice. In my opinion, you can't go wrong at The Big Salad.

    I am so happy we have s big salad finally. They are all fresh and very yummy. There soups are very yummy too. Everyone is very nice and friendly. I took my daughter here and had the cob salad and the Cali sub. The prices are great there's a lot of food so if you don't eat it all bring it home.

    My Greek salad could have had more toppings 1 tablespoon of each topping is not enough. The price at 9 for no meat seemed a bit high.

    The food just wasn't very good. Too much dressing, and the salads were huge but mostly lettuce. My roll was dry.

We were seated almost immediately, greeted by a pleasant young woman who took us to a comfy booth. Service quickly arrived as we ordered the usual- a water and a piping hot cup of joe. Classic. The menu was full of tantalizing options, each calling our name - "order me...." - and we struggled to decide on the Heavenly Hash, over easy, seasoned fries. Classic. A shared glance at the 'Mexican Omelette' and we knew that I had to order it once again. Served with a crispy spread of home fries and a soft side of toast? Classic. My partner nursed her coffee, a contemplative look on her face, an itch in her fingers for a cigarette. Menthol. Classic. We poured over the local paper looking for clues on our next case.. This wild world is changing into something not even I can recognize anymore. Except crime. Crime never changes. A ringtone - my phone. A call from the department chief. Time to go. Great service.

    I didn't have high expectations for this place ... a chain restaurant in a strip mall, which looks…read morelike they hired a designer for TGIFriday's. Everything about it feels corporate and 'cheesy', no pun intended. I flew into Detroit for business and had only an hour to grab lunch, so visiting the original location in downtown Detroit, where Detroit style pizza was 'invented' wasn't a possibility. This outpost would have to do. On a Thursday at 2 p.m. it was almost empty. This became more obvious due to the incredibly cancerous size of the restaurant. Bad sign. I sat at the bar and the most wonderful and sweet bartender waited on me. She was so helpful and nice ... in a Midwestern kind of way. The pizza (pepperoni ... old style) came out and I noticed that it looked like something you'd get at a ballgame or concert. Nothing special looking about it. However, the taste was amazing. It tastes the way I remember pizza tasting when I was around 10 years old ... so good and flavorful! I def. would have judged a book by its cover had I not tasted it. The cheese is very good and doesn't taste cheap. Sauce is acidic and no issues there. The crust is buttery and spongy. The only issue I had was that the toppings were super stingy. I think pepperoni was $3 extra on the small 4-slice pizza. When it came out, I was bummed out by how little pepperoni was on the pizza. Despite the cheapskate topping percentage, the pepperoni was good. Slightly cupped, a bit of a smokey taste and reminded me a bit of Prince Street Pizza in NYC. (Although I give Prince Street a slight edge in the taste) The house beer was pretty good as well and tasted like a cross between Blue Moon and Allagash. It comes in a frosted mug, which is a great touch. Even better .... when the bull came, the waitress had added a lunch special cost, which brought the cost of the pizza and beer down 25%. I never even noticed. I am already craving another Buddy's pizza. Hope to come back one day because this is delicious.

    Food was ready when promised. We did carry out so I'm not sure what the inside looks like. The…read morepizza wasn't as good as I remember it was but still okay. The cheese bread was very tasty! I'm sure we'll be back again to give it another try
