Erica Copeland: Meatloaf is delish here! Mac and cheese, spaghetti, and greens are all good side items!
Eater: Diners swear by the smothered pork chops, fried chicken, mac & cheese, and the peach cobbler for dessert. It's pure Detroit, and worth the tricky parking situation and the wait. [Eater 38 Member] Read more.

Michael Pricer: Fantastic. Sausage and Pepper app is great!! Old school Detroit
David LaDuc: Best Italian restaurant in Michigan (and, probably, elsewhere, too), bar none. Roma Salad is wonderful. Pasta is great. The service by waiters in tuxedos is superb. Been going here for 50 years.
Christy Cumbo: Lasagna heaven! Thinking about it still the next day. Gnocchi was a little bland probably just in comparison to the LASAGNA which was so deliciously rich.
