Sorry to say that despite the bargain food, their customer service is horrible. We arrived at 7:45 on a Friday night and were ignored for 10 minutes...no menus, no drink order, not even a wipe of the dirty table. Another couple arrived at the table next to us and immediately had their table wiped, menus provided. Eventually, we were given a menu and ordered a drink, then nothing. After our drink was delivered, this horrible waitress promised to return as soon as she took the food order of the couple who arrived after us. Not so, she proceeded to wait on at least 3 other tables. By then, we were done. When she finally returned we asked for our bill and told her we didn't appreciate her priorities. No apology, just the bill. It seriously seemed like she intentionally refused to wait on us. My husband decided to talk to a manager and they viewed videotape to verify our story. No lies, the manager reimbursed our drinks. Still no apology from the waitress. Kudos to the manager. Shame on the waitress. Sad for her. We are generous spenders and tippers. She might want to look into another career. read more

Typical bar restaurant. Food was typical bar food. I've been here once and I don't really feel the need to go back- but will if someone else really wants to. The food is a good price for what you get, but beware of the grease. I had a burger and fries, and although good, was completely saturated with grease. Talk about tummy ache. If I go back I'll try something a little lighter. read more

I took my family to this establishment for lunch today considering I'm traveling from Chicago to attend my father's funeral. Expected a lovely time and I guess my expectations remain extremely high. Our waitress Lauren is clearly in the wrong business. Every dirty look or rude comment from Lauren forced a horrible memory and miserable dining experience for all of us. I spend good money everywhere I go and I am beyond a good tipper. Not sure what this chics problem was, either way beware! If your reading this review....GO SOMEWHERE DIFFERENT!!!! read more

Checked this place out early on this saturday evening and at 5pm it was already packed. There was a mix of people with some dressed up, some dressed down and some wearing almost rags. No problems anywhere, great blending. Everyone chilling and enjoying themselves. The reputation of huge sandwiches had my attention from go. Yes indeed they are huge, enough for two if not three meals. The corned beef was good and I would probably order again. They have a good selection of bottle and draft beers. The waitress said they had genisys on draft. I asked again to make certain I heard correctly and asked if it was light, red or dark. She announced dark so I ordered. My drafts were served almost room temperature, which is ok with me, as I like it european style. But, in actuality I was drinking a Guiness. The waistaff was also friendly and attentive. Flat screens are on most all walls. Clun Keno, pool and other video games available. Yes, returns trips. A nice spot for some drinks and grub. read more

Good for price is the only reason why this place deserves a 2 star. Food is mediocre at best the drinks barely contain any liquor and the service is just plain horrible! The waitress even got the manager to basically intimidate me when I said it would work into her tip. We waited 10 minutes before anyone approached us and the waitress was chewing gum the whole time and gave an attitude. Again the portions were good the price but that's about it. I rather go for good food and pay a little more with some respect. Wouldn't recommend this place if you want to be treated as a customer, and this is coming from a former waitress. Won't go back! But I think if ur getting to do go food for the price might be worth it. read more

Their legendary sandwiches and choices of well priced steaks are awesome. Good deals at happy hour as well. Nice relaxed atmosphere to go have a couple of drinks and a great meal for a very reasonable price. Service and staff are always top notch. read more

Great place! Epic burgers! 5 stars from this Fat guy! If your in the area stop in, now if I could only get them to deliver to my shop. If you wanna see a big burger get the avalanche .... In couldn't even finish that thing! But it was delicious ! I will return many times! read more

The corn beef is great! It a really big sandwich. I orderd carryout so I can't really tell u about the service and stuff.

Great service, great drink specials, and good prices on somewhat quality food. Love this place. People when you pay what you pay for food here you can't expect the best quality. read more

It is what it is. If your from the area you've been here, if your not then I wouldn't make the trip. Good food thats pretty cheap. Friday night is best $1 bottles after midnight. read more

Very friendly waitress and the food was good. I didn't sit with an empty beer once. I liked the service a lot. I will be going back soon

Last night was the second time I'd been to Wheat & Rye. I went last night because I'd heard so much about their Polish dinner. I've had better but what was really disappointing was the service I got last night. The first time I went I had the prime rib and it was good and I had really good service. Last night I got the Polish combo. I had to raise my hand to get someone to notice me and then wait some more before the waitress showed up. Ordered a lemon wedge in my Pepsi. Did I get it? No. No biggie. Then the meal comes and I had to look for her again to get the dinner roll that should have come with the meal. Then the bill. What is it with younger people today who can't make change even with MACHINES that tell them what the change SHOULD be? Then she disappeared again without giving me my bill. I had to use another waitress to check the price of the meal and the change I SHOULD have gotten. Then she went looking for my waitress. When she finally showed up, she gave me too much change back. Oh, well. When you don't give me the right change, I'll let you know. When you give me too much money back, that's on you. This restaurant isn't really close to my home so I don't think I'll be driving back any time soon. read more

Never again... used to come here all the time for lunch. hadn't been here in a long time. Went for lunch today and will not be back... asked for a water. they couldn't serve any as the city was flushing the lines.... Umm ok. Why are you open then if the water isn't servable... Health code violation??? maybe... Secondly.... ordered a glass of pop. got to the bottom and asked for a refill... Informed I would be charged.... but they could serve me water now... Ok REALLY.... who wants that right after flushing the system... Looking in the bottom of my EMPTY pop glass I see ice and a bug stuck to it! Awesome.... Waitress brought bill informed her of bug and said the drink needed to be removed from the bill due to BUG in it... She said ok... No apology.... Bad service.... Waitress was walking away from table when my friends were still ordering... ordered a chicken ceasar salad... meal came... No chicken... You've seen better days wheat and rye.... read more

More of a dive bar with a 40s crowd from what I've seen every time I've been there. Their burgers are awesome, had a philly steak once which wasn't good at all, was very soggy since they don't toast the bread beforehand but if you want a good burger this is the place. read more

Went for lunch with a coworker on a Thursday at 11:40. It was 55 minutes from when we sat down to when we walked out the door. There were approx. 20 people in the restaurant. It took 40 minutes for us to get our food. Our cokes were flat. I had the French Dip Panini with seasoned fries. I was not told that there was a fee to add the seasoning on to the fries, which didn't even stick and was at the bottom of the plate. My sandwich was hot, the fries were old and room temperature. My coworker had a burger and fries. The burger wasn't warm and the fries were old and room temperature. read more

Best burgers in the Detroit area with huge portions all across their menu. I could barely finish half of my corn beef sandwich. Also, they have Bells beer for $2 after 9PM. What? read more

I understand this is a bar and thus I shouldn't expect much but there are a few things that I require when going out for a meal. First and for most I expect the place to be clean. Second I expect good service and Third I expect the place to have the items on their menu. This placed failed all three of my requirements, it was dirty and the service was very slow and lastly they were out of items on their everyday menu. I ordered the steak which was priced very low (12.95). Needless to say you get what you pay for. It was a large piece of beef and fat with very little flavor. I also got a side order of fries which were some of the worst fries I've ever had. I tend to give a lot of bars a chance when it comes to food because like most of you out there I love fried bar food or a good steak at a respectable price but this place gives bar food a bad name. I have heard that they have good corn beef sandwiches which is what I'll try next time if I ever go back. Chances are if I do return it will be out of pure laziness or because I'm meeting someone there. Anyone who gave this place more than 2 stars needs to get their taste buds checked, just because it's cheap and big doesn't mean it's good food. read more

I have been there a few times and noticed they leave the back door open all the time for the little critters in the alley in which I did see mice scurrying around . I don't know how they pass health inspections but I won't ever eat there again. read more

This place just made my '3 strikes and u r out' list and not hardly anywhere I don't think ever made that list!! why? 1st time few years ago, asked for water with meal and was told 'we don't have water'...like what? they said we can sell you bottled water..mind you I am ordering 2 steak dinners. so I got a bottled water which I drank like 1/4 of and paid top dollar but took home. 2nd time was 5/18 mother's day sunday, they have specials but watch, the large prime rib I think it was...everything is separate potatoe, vegs etc and they are $3.40 a piece and then my meal came with the veg cause got smaller steak dinner and they charged me anyways..never said a word, wanted to get out. this time I ordered RARE steak as usual and it literally came over worse than well done..showed waitress and she took back and came out and said 'yes he saw well done for the fries and thought it was the steak...then brought out a RAW steak...literallty and I like mine MOOOOING...I ate it, better than well done but I had to cut it in 1/2 cuz I lie not, it was 1/2 fat the rib eye....and why baked pots after 4pm..doesn't take much to m/v a potato for someone who doesn't eat fries and if I order them well done, I don't want them limp. then they have rice on the menu and she goes 'we don't have rice'...take it off the menu then....so had to get fries...she goes 'well that is what it comes with'..ok....don't see anything about no substitions..I will never go back there for dinner EVER!! sooooo slow in there as well and waitresses are NOT friendly at all!! no hi how are you today.nope...they great you with 'what would you like to drink?'...really? nickle and time you at this place......done, so done with them. read more

Understand being understaffed, but come on. Sat outside and waited 10 minutes while waitresses walked by. No big deal, good company! Asked to sit inside because of a party that had the outside reserved. No sign or hostess to tell us otherwise. No big deal!! Moved inside and waited 15 minutes for a waitress. Not even half the dining area was occupied. No problem!! Prepared for them being unprepared and had our drink and food order ready. Went to order and were informed that they only served bottled water and there was a charge ($1.75). Little bit of a big deal. Waited 25 minutes for our drinks, asked waitress at the 20 minute mark to please bring our drinks, no luck. Problem! Waited a total of 55 minutes with NO FOOD, not even a visit to the table. Huge problem. Paid them for the picture of beer AND WATER, and went to leave. Amazing, waitress arrives and says food is almost ready. No thanks!! Walked! This is a restaurant taking advantage of the lack of decent eateries around the airport. Think twice if you plan on going to the CANT Eat but Tried. read more

I really enjoy their hamburgers and special sandwiches. But I had to knock two stars off because they got rid of their popcorn chicken that my kids liked and (what really bothered me) they changed the way their fries are made. I like the original fries and now they are some sort of crispy fries. Blah.. read more

usually, wheat & rye is one of my favorite places to eat, the food is amazing and usually the service is decent but today me and my family went out for a meal and it took almost 15 minutes for the waitress to even acknowledge that we were there! she was SO rude and made snotty comments every time she passed by, she was one of the most disrespectful people i've ever met by far. hope you're happy with your no tip. :) read more

Not great but not bad. I used to visit wheat and rye regularly when I was younger and would always get the superbird. Back then it was good, now....not so much. It seems like this location is very cheap with their food and supplies. Menu says grilled chicken on the superbird...it's processed chicken that probably came out of a bag. Very disappointed bc that was not the sandwich I used to get when I was younger. Overall...very disappointed to say the least. read more

The place was frigid. The service was terrible. Sat for over 30 minutes while the server tended to the drink orders and lost our food order. Never going back to that crapshack read more

wonderful time....great atmosphere and nice staff....we ordered mussels, burgers, and the new york strip steak....the meat was so good, the mussles were perfect. not one mistake on the order, prices were a very nice suprise as a huge steak dinner was less than $10. read more

this restaurant used to have the best cheese fries and hamburgers but now seems to have chosen a different vender for their meat and their cheese fries are bland...disgusting now. read more

Would not ever go there again. our work order a large order and some of our bacon cheese burgers didnt even have bacon on them. it was not marked on the boxes on how they were cooked. some of us wanted well done and some wanted medium well. to me the burger taste bland except for the bacon. that was the only thing good. read more

Went for a carry out tonight. Over priced and the order was wrong. This place has changed. :(

be careful when ordering, this place has some real underhanded sales tricks ...must be owned by politicians ..They advertise a $1.00 ground round ....SCAM SCAM SCAM ...you are required to purchase one of ther overprised beverages to take advantage of this ..$2.50 for a cup of coffiee..I orderd my burger with grilled onions and grilled bun ...when the bill arrives I am completly amazed ...they charged me .50 for toasting the bun and .50 for grilling the onions .....I refuse to do buisness with a company that scams people like this ... read more
