Robb Pickett: The margarita pizza washed down with a few vodka sodas makes for a great Saturday!
Michael W: Ask for the Salty Egg Pizza any time. It is a brunch menu favorite, but they are happy to bake one for you at lunch or dinner too!
Rachel Berg: Joey, the bartender, is awesome.
Crash Gregg: Stop by their old fashioned soda fountain for a great milkshake, grilled cheese sandwich, sundae, or cheeseburger!

Jeff Gunn: As a vegan traveler, this place slays! Nab the Tinga Tacos or Chicken & Waffles. Amazing homemade got sauce (25¢). House made sodas, as well...
Benjamin Wallis: Chicken and Waffles were fantastic. Root chips are great with the pesto. Also the side portions are huge for fritters, no need to order the app.
Sera Lewis: Get the fritters, get the fritters, get the fritters. Also the chicken and waffles. Maybe not the sushi.
Matthew Krevat: Try the cherry soda - perfect compliment to salty fries
Randy Blew: Outstanding dogs, burgers, pretty much everything. The chili cheese fries are excellent.
Mike Saad: I'm an ex Detroiter / Michigander. The owners are from Michigan. These are the best coney's outside of Detroit! Truly a great treat. Only missing Vernor's ginger ale. Highly recommend.

Margret Anne: The rumor about the mac n cheese is true. Best thing I ever ate.
