I have to suspect that these four- and five-star reviews are based more on nostalgia and late-night drunken visits than they are based on the quality of this place.

When I lived in Detroit I used to eat here all the time and still do when I'm in the area. The food is good and the cost is low. The service is great. You never have to wait to long for them to serve you a meal. I would recommend this restaurant to others.
