Gourmet Deli
Feb 29, 2008 by Marshall from Detroit
Overall Rating: 8
Food:[9] • Service:[10] • Atmosphere:[6]

• Salad bar selections, soups.
• Some prices tend to run a little high.

“Excellent food and terrific service. Their salad bar is to die for. Can be a little pricey but not overly so. Located in the Renaissance Center 500 tower. Although they have some tables set up outside in the common area, the Ren Cen support staff and office workers mostly take carry out. They open at 6:00 AM.”

Scotty Simpson's Fish & Chips
Jan 9, 2008 by Dan from Dallas, TX
Overall Rating: 10
Food:[10] • Service:[10] • Atmosphere:[10]

• Love the Fish and the Fries.
• Don't care much for the coleslaw, but who's going there for the slaw anyways.

“This is the absolute best place in the Midwest to get Fish and Chips. My family has been eating at Scotty's since the 70's and anytime we happen to be in Detroit, you can find us at Scotty's. I have an uncle that will plan lay-over in Detroit just so he can sneak out and get some Scotty's. You will not be disappointed.”

Vivios Food & Spirits

Overall Rating: 9
Food:[10] • Service:[8] • Atmosphere:[8]

• Lasagna.
• Wait - even off-season.

“We were off-season for visiting 'up north' (October) but Vivios was still busy with only a 15 minute wait on a Saturday night. Drinks were a little on the pricey side, but stiff. Decor is definitely 'up north' which is exactly you desire and expect. I am a lasagna bigot. Nobody can make it better than my mother (not Italian) but Ive tried it everywhere and nobody beats moms. Until Vivios. Wow. Tried the pizza, gave it an 8, didn't try the tenderloin, but our friend did and gave it an 8. Do the lasagna, the sauce is amazing - it is a 10.”

Online Cafe Inc
Sep 26, 2007 by Peter from Detroit
Overall Rating: 1
Service:[1] •

• Atmosphere.
• food not arriving even after 45 min of waiting.

“It is difficult to give an evaluation of the food due to not being able to eat the food. My wife and I had a flight on Friday, September 21. We had 1-1/2 hour until our flight therefore thinking that we could grab a meal before the flight. We ordered the meal at 13:45 and were served only a portion of the meal by 14:30 yet. It is not our practice to leave a restaurant without paying however we needed to go and it seems unacceptable that a restaurant especially in an airport would take 45 minutes plus to serve a meal. The response we received was "it's a shift change" hmmm that long for a shift change. I think administration needs to look at this and resolve because this potential customer will not return and neither will colleagues and other contacts after hearing from my wife and myself.”

Kwong Tung Inn
Jul 1, 2007 by Oriole from Birmingham
Overall Rating: 8
Food:[10] • Service:[10] • Atmosphere:[3]

• Delicious food, reasonably priced.
• Dark, depressing, sparse dining room.

“The exterior is off-putting, some might even thing the building is abandoned. But don't let that dissuade you. Kwong Tung Inn has some of the best Chinese food in the area, and at very affordable prices. They do have a dining area, but the Ritz it isn't. I usually get my meals to go. Their most expensive menu item is less than $7. The portions are generous, and the flavor exquisite. They have several combination meals available (by combo I mean you can get Egg Foo Young and Pepper Steak, or Garlic Ribs and Sweet and Sour Pork). All dinners come with fried rice and an egg roll. I've introduced many friends and relatives to the food at Kwong Tung Inn over the years, and I've never heard a negative comment yet.”
