Tony Markel: Look, this isn't your typical greasy spoon or high end "diner". This is the Fleetwood. The coffee is hot and plentiful. The pancakes, bacon, hash and eggs are hot and tasty.

Maddison Lanctot: Went here late night for drunk food (because the food is not good enough to eat sober- it’s mediocre at best) and we had the worst service I’ve ever received at a restaurant. They were so rude to us and we ended up getting takeout because we felt we were not at all welcomed. It was really disappointing.EDIT: went here again (not by choice) for my friends birthday and had to use the restroom and had a horrible experience in the restroom even. So dirty and gross. In the basement and was super hard to find- someone had to tell me how to get there (a customer bc the staff is useless). This might be the worst place I’ve ever dined and that is saying a lot because I am not picky

Andrii Medvediev: Are you serious? This place has a rating of 4.3 out of 5, but I would rate it a 0! It's extremely unsanitary. The person preparing food doesn't wear gloves. When I tried to take a photo of the dirty kitchen, they prohibited me from doing so. The food here is absolutely disgusting. French fries and chicken cooked in old oil. It's the worst place I've had chicken in USA. Please, do not go there.

Benjamin Meza-Wilson: If you need a place to hang out for 30-90 minutes waiting for great food this is your place. Punks and townies can be found here. The place has unique atmosphere, stickers line the inside surfaces, and the restroom is a dungeon downstairs. Cleanliness wouldn't be a five star, but that's not a review category. They have outdoor seating when it's nice out. Directly across from the Grotto on Ashley Street.

kizzy wade: This place is really dirty. The lady who wo rk there is rude. There is only one cook. The bathroom is nasty. But the food is good. I don't want to eat at a nasty restaurant again. They need to clean up that place really bad. They should shut it down.

Mark G: I was here with my young daughter and ordered chicken strips and fries for her. I ordered a medium Greek salad for myself. The bill was over $25. I asked about it because the chicken/fries on the kid menu was $7.59 and the medium Greek salad was 8.99. The waitress said she gave my daughter the regular size chicken/fries and that I should’ve told her I wanted the kid size. I didn’t know there was a regular size so when I saw it on the kid menu I just ordered it.but, fine, I’ll accept responsibility for that. But I was charged for the large Greek salad when I asked for medium. I know for sure that I asked for the medium because I wasn’t very hungry and only ordered something so my daughter wouldn’t be eating alone. I would’ve ordered a small if it was available. The medium was ridiculously small. Literally 2 olives, 2 slices of beet, 1 slice of tomato, 2 perpperocinis, lettuce, and feta cheese. And a pita bread. I won’t be going back.

Chrissy Rankin: Cute, Tiny Diner.. Good on price. OPEN 24 Hours.. Fast and Friendly.. Cute, Hippie ish Cook ....Parking: Park in the parking garage.. Or try to find Street Parking..

Andrew Yap: Greasy and satisfying

kulawik thomas: It has taken me so long to leave this review because I was so truly disgusted I couldn't bring myself to even THINK about this place after my experience. I came here for dinner with my friends and I ordered a basic reuben. I was eating and not paying too much attention until I noticed a small black hair, maybe about an inch or less. I was obviously grossed out but then I looked a bit closer and realized there were HUNDREDS (not hundreds actually but maybe like 50 hairs) of these hairs all over the plate and in my food. I was stunned, thinking how on earth could these have gotten here. It wasn't until I turned my head over to look into the kitchen and saw one of the chefs, with a black beard, scratching his beard over the food while cooking. And that is when I realized. Why didn't I say anything to the staff that night? I had already eaten like half of this sandwich. It took everything in me to not throw up right there. I was so horrified and disgusted (and almost embarrassed?) that I ran out of there and told my friends I had to leave immediately. I couldn't even tell my friends until the next day because I was so sick to my stomach. This has by far been the worst experience I've ever had at a restaurant.DO NOT GO HERE IT'S NOT WORTH IT!!!! If you want an a good diner go to Northside Grill.

Justin Jones: Only reason for 1 star is due to not giving them a zero. Waited 20 minutes to be served. Never got bread like the rest of the customers. While my wife and I waited, 3 employees talked at the bar and helped the Caucasian customers. Never asked for a refill until visibly obvious I had enough. Now to the food. Extremely over priced food for nothing more than ambience. Same quality as Applebees.

Eryn Baker Bickerstaff: Atmosphere, service, and plating were phenomenal. As far as the taste of the food goes... Everything was under salted and bland.Apricot cheesecake tasted amazing, but the crust was not incorporated properly and had an off texture.

Todd Mueller: The food was good, however the lamb chops were the smallest portions I've ever seen. There were 4 ribs total, but the meat on each was roughly the size of a quarter.

Dimitri Roumanis: Amazing food, cocktails, and unique menu. This is a chef owned establishment and the food reflects that! One of my favorite dishes is the Shaking Beef but I just had the Wagyu Beef Cheek and it was divine. One of my favorite places in town.

M Nedloc: I really enjoyed the atmosphere, made me feel kind of fancy, with the low candle light, dimming of the room lights and mature menu. Since this was my first time, I got a couple of things as I was craving something along the lines of Asian cuisine. The prices on this menu are a tad higher here but well-deserved servings to make it up to you. The menu does change here so if you do end up loving this place, you can come back and try something new. Here, I tried one of their risottos and their grilled pork entrees. They do not currently sell this specific entrée and or starter, but often have a different spin off. Their entrée came with a hefty amount of pork, fresh rice, and a fried egg. Sounds simple but it was quite delicious. The only thing I would bring up is that the pork served was a little too sweet, but I still thoroughly enjoyed it. I also ordered an old fashioned and I honestly think this is my favorite place for one or maybe the bartender just has the magic touch! Be mindful of parking, it can get busy, and most parking is paid but I think it’s worth the taste and experience.

Dan Jensen: They cancelled our valentines reservation the week before Valentine’s Day. We were very excited to try this restaurant but thought it was very rude to cancel after having a reservation for 2 months. We will not go here.

Rob Crozier: This is some of the best food that I’ve had in Ann Arbor. Loved the duck with beet risotto.

Rebekah Brown: Such an amazing experience at Taste Kitchen on Valentine’s Day! The food was flavorful and the wine pairings went perfectly with each dinner. Our waiter Alex explained everything in detail which helped and made us look into trying to new wines in the future. The energy was calm and beautifully done/set up! I would definitely recommend this place for special occasions! We will be back!Vegetarian options: The menu seemed to have vegetarian, protein and pescatarian options for each course. I loved the variety and accommodation for a bigger audience of people.Parking: Parking garage right next door, take elevator or stairs down to FedEx lobby and the restaurant is on the right.Dietary restrictions: Waiter asked us if we had restrictions to better accommodate us before selecting dishes.

Ryan P: Delicious dinner spot - 10/10 would recommend!Dietary restrictions: They were very accommodating!

Jen R: We ate at a new to us restaurant last night, Taste Kitchen. It did not disappoint. The atmosphere had a cool vibe, service was great, the food was excellent AND we were given fresh silverware and plates between each course! So important. We got a great wine recommendation from our server (in a section of the menu we usually don't choose from - light and delicate) but it turned out to be a wonderful pairing with the range of foods we had. We will definitely go back and I do recommend it if you're ever in the area!* Summer rolls* Mussels* Seafood bisque* Shrimp and mushroom risotto* Le Orme Italian wine

Mina A: Excellent service (Noelle was wonderful!) and incredible food. All guests loved their meal. Will absolutely be back. One of the best scallops we’ve had, salmon was cooked to perfection, seafood bisque was authentic and had very fresh ingredients, calamari was very lightly breaded with gluten free coating and incredible flavors. Coffee creme brûlée was out of this world and an amazing end to the meal. Lemongrass ginger was also delicious. Drinks were well balanced and flavorful. Just overall, 10/10. Highly recommend and would love to come again. Sorry no pics; we were enjoying the moment!

I had order the Beijing duck que​sa​dil​la which is an appetizer and a full size Caesar salad for my main food items; and our server was mindful to bring my salad and appetizer out at the same time as the other entrées, which is entirely appropriate being that it was a family dinner. I'll admit that in my photograph there are only three pieces of the Beijing duck que​sa​dil​la, but there was original four pieces, I was just so hungry and the food looked and smelled so good that I gobbled one piece down before snapping the photo, my bad, but it was so good. The mango salsa was delicious, it was spicy, but I love spicy so it was a great treat for me and paired really well with the Beijing duck quesadilla.

Melissa Smith: Terrible service, went there Saturday afternoon they weren’t busy at all and our server took forever to take our order. It is very loud in there. The baked Mac and cheese is not cheesy and is the size of a side dish not an entree. You pay $5 dollars more for a meat on the nachos that is barely there. However, the spicy cheese curds were good.

Bradley Watson: Ordered the Gumbo for dinner last night. Very mediocre. The Andouille sausage was far from a true andouille sausage. The portion size was pretty small. Left feeling unfulfilled.

A Rogers: I went with my siblings. In all fairness, they liked their sandwiches and said sweet potato fries were good. However, I got fish and chips which were small pieces and way over breaded. I had to peel the breading off in order to even eat the skimpy piece of cod.

Andrea Busch: 2nd time I was there. I chose it because the last and 1st time I went, it impressed me. It wasn't pretentious, rather the "normal" fare wasn't embellished with fancy description.

Jason Heien: First time visiting. Made reservations, and we arrived a little early and our table was ready!Sat down , and Gabriel was our server. He was awesome with his recommendations, very attentive, but not hovering. He knew every nuance for every dish. And I mean everything.We started out with cocktails, then appetizers, which we took his recommendation for the seafood studel and the calamari, which were exactly how he had described. Calamari was ever so lightly breaded and salted to where it really accented the calamari without overloading it with breading.Next was our entrees. I go the blackened porkchop, my wife got the burger, my mom got the swordfish, and my stepdad got the sea bass. Everyone LOVED their entrees.For dessert, we chose the orange cake and the carrot cake. Gabriel even noticed in our conversation that there was a birthday, so when they brought out the orange cake it had a candle in it!In all The West End Grill is one high end, 1st class restaurant, that is on our favorites list, and must visit list for Ann Arbor

Rebecca Hogan: Really wanted to like this cozy older neighborhood spot but we did not. The food was insanely overpriced. Yes I know everything is expensive right now- but this was beyond. My scallop dish was basically only pasta, too much sauce and $50! The service was nice as was the wine but we were quite disappointed and will not be back- too many other good and great spots in the area!

Kathleen Longo: Service really good. Food mediocre for the price. There are better options in Ann Arbor but maybe not on Mondays when most restaurants are closed. Lucky for WEG….

Mona Bacall: Delicious food, drinks and service

john richter: Went there fir dinner last night,I ordered lobster tail dinner and my girlfriend got delmonico dinner,,,delmonico was either sliced or it was a strip steak,8 0z lobster tail was not presented with drawn butter or anything,and also came with a tablespoon of rice,two baby carrots and two potted peas..not enough bang for the buck,will not be returning and wouldn't recommend.

Hockey Mom 7: Loved getting the table in the front window! I’m not a seafood eater but if you like seafood, the menu is choc full of a variety from sea bass to scallops. The tomato basil soup was very good. The lobster tail is 8 ounces and left little to be desired but the swordfish was tasty. The prices are very steep so be prepared to pay $70 for the Delmonico Steak. The big negative is this woman who I believe works there (see pic below) kept walking out and smoking cigarettes in front of the window. Just not a good look for what you pay for inside. Kevin is a good waiter and he deserves 5 stars. Gordy, the general manager was very nice and is very friendly with the patrons. Not sure we will be back.

Rami Jabro: Great good great atmosphere

Parker Thomas: Great service. Asked to move tables and they were very accomodating. Scallop pasta was excellent. Lobster tail was very good....maybe a tad to much spice...but I'm used to steamed lobster.Mixed drinks were excellent.

Jenn Loukotka: First the good stuff: really nice staff, pretty good drinks. My husband said that the key lime pie was good. French onion soup was great. Medium ambience. I don't normally leave reviews but the price was insanely high for how bad the food was. We went out to dinner with some friends and everyone disliked their meal. Two of us had the scallop pasta dish which was $39 and it was SO salty, and had probably two scallops in it. Cocktails are around $20 each, they were decent but definitely not worth $20. My husband had the fish which he said was not good, and came with two baby carrots next to it. There was only one vegetarian option on the menu. We spent a total of $460 between the 4 of us and left really disappointed. Hate to leave a negative review but if you're going to charge that much I would expect better quality.

Spencer Ryan: The drinks were good and the waitress friendly, but the food (Seafood, Steak, Pasta, apps) were all extremely bland and over salted. An extremely disappointing experience given the price point.

Kiyatta Lacy: I had the most Amazing Time here!! From the staff to the Regular customer!! You guys was a great end to my Birthday!! Looking forward to visiting again!! I wish I was good with names but I’m not, but the one waitress thank you so much!! You were so amazing I remember your from the Detroit area🤗🤗

Lisa Hafezi: My experience was the worst I have ever had in Ann Arbor.

Brandon Goldberg: The tray in my photos shows $48 worth of food - not including two rib bones. A slice of brisket ($3.50 upcharge on a $34.50 meat sampler), a bit of dry chopped chicken, spicy cheesy grits, dry cold cornbread, a Caesar salad with tasteless dressing ($5.75 upcharge), and 2 ribs ($3.50 upcharge).Food was mediocre at best. Drinks were great. Ribs came out with two (packaged) alcohol wipes tucked underneath them on the plate. The ribs were sitting on top of the wipe packs which is both a food safety issue and meant the wipe packs had sauce all over them.Soda was $3 each, kids lemonade was $4.25, kids mac n cheese had some sort of strong blue cheese type flavor that both kids and adults didn’t want to eat.Caprese sliders were very good. Brisket was pretty good. Pickle chips were tasty. Beermosas were great and something we’d never seen before.On top of prices we were charged an almost $9 “convenience fee” for paying with a credit card.Besides being very expensive, service was slow even though the place was nearly empty. Our waiter was friendly and helpful when present, but he was either the only waiter on staff for Mothers Day or they had him doing other things between waiting tables.

Julian Dant: Cool place, great location and good atmosphere. Food is only mediocre and waaayyy too expensive. We ordered a takeout family dinner for 4 . Ended up costing 45 bucks a person and there wasn’t enough for all of us. Pretty disappointing really… I get it, the cost of everything is going up but gouging people for bbq?

Jordi Vila: Blue Tractor BBQ & Brewery. Local de smokehouse situado en el centro de Ann Arbor. En este caso, lugar donde tomar buenas pintas artesanas y luego tener una comida contundente.Los platos a escoger se componen de varias cosas pero sin duda, la mejor opción para probar, es el menu que tienen, donde puedes escoger dos o tres carnes, con dos acompañamientos entre varias opciones, el menu de 2 carnes ronda los 35/40 dólares y el de 3 carnes los 40/45 dólares.En mi caso, me decanté por probar el corte brisket, sin duda, el corte por excelencia en EEUU y en este caso, era un buen ejemplo, tierno y jugoso, aunque no el mejor que he probado, era bueno. Además del brisket, pude probar las costillas, estaban buenas con su salsa BBQ. De acompañamiento las patatas tipo gofre y alubias. Plato super contundente.Nota: 8,5/10

Scott Rockdashil: Not a great experience. Sorry the bartender had to work tonight. Brisket was fantastic but the turkey was dry and not the best.

Nick Krueger: Food was pretty good, but everything felt overpriced, likely due to location. As far as BBQ goes it came across as pretty average. Service was good though!Food: 3/5|Service: 4/5|Atmosphere: 4/5 …More

Kendra Kerr: Took my dad there for dinner to celebrate the end of radiation and we all ordered barbecue. The meat was entirely too fatty. In fact there was far more fat than meat. Cocktails were completely off ratio wise. We ordered a cosmo, Moscow mule and whiskey sour and none of the drinks were good. The waiter however was friendly and attentive.

Jonah Hatt: This was my third time going here and it wasn't very good. The food and drinks are mediocre and over priced. The bartender was pretty rude and seemed inconvenienced by customers. We're definitely not going back again after the poor experience.

Chris Goodwin: My father in law was cut off from drinking( not close to being drunk ) for speaking about his political views to me and my brother in law. The waitres overheard and cut him off for bieng conservative. Weirdest experience of my life. Good luck Blue Tractor if this is who you are hiring.

Patrick Bismack: I can't believe how much this place has gone downhill. This used to be the go to spot for BBQ in Ann Arbor. However, it most definitely isn't anymore. In the last few months there has been around a 35% increase in price. The issue isn't the price, the issue is raising the price and losing the quality. You can not justifying raising the price if the quality and quantity are both decreased. For $80 the meat and mac and cheese I received with my meal should be edible, but it so bad that it was thrown out. The manager Jason was also incredible rude and did not even seem to care at all when the poor food quality was brought up. As a frequently and loyal Blue Tractor fan, I think it's time for all of us to move on.

Cindy D: Beer was great! Food was terrible at the Ann Arbor location. The brisket was so salty it was inedible (I don't use sauce but maybe that could cover it up?). The waffle fries were dry and hard as was the corn bread. Price was on the higher side for what was plated. Very disappointed! (But would go back for the beer!)Food: 1/5|Service: 4/5|Atmosphere: 4/5 …More

Zach Harner: Mid day, wasn't too busy. They had about 5 staff that we could see, but only one person seemed to be handling tables, and also the bar.Took about 20 minutes before we got waited on. We ordered the three meat two sides meal.At first site, the portions were very small for a price of $40. ($35 for base, and $6 upcharge for brisket and ribs.)The brisket and ribs were both incredibly dry. Can't speak on the pulled pork my wife chose, as i did not try it.Our server never came back until we were done. We both ran out of water early into the dry meat meal. About the time we were done, the hostess walked over with a water pitcher and filled us back up, but at that point we had already ate what we could without any water to drink.I had been here once before, and the server that time was more available, but also slightly rude. And the food really didn't match the price.I can't in good conscience recommend this place as a great place to eat in downtown Ann arbor. There are much better options throughout the town.At the quality of the food for price ratio, you'd even be better off just going to a chain restaurant and saving a few bucks for about the same quality of food.I try to never be negative in my reviews, but sometimes honesty can be harsh. I really wanted to like this place.

Michael Marsico: Very disappointed. My family attended the Ann Arbor location recently. Let's start with the Ribs. They were not good. Undercooked and fatty. I expect a more well cooked fall off the bone rib from a place that touts its BBQ reputation. These were tough and full of fat. Though the BBQ sauce that came with the ribs was good, the other "BBQ" sauces I was offered left much to be desired. Of the 3 of them, one seemed to be just more of what was already on the ribs. This was fine, as it is the sauce I used the most. Another, was what seemed to be spicy vinegar, was not good. The last, was more of a honey mustard sauce than a mustard based BBQ sauce. I did not use it on the ribs, but it worked as a french fry dipping sauce. The fries were actually good. My daughter, who does not eat much, ordered a side of mac & cheese. It was dry and appeared that it was sitting in open air for some time. This was interesting as our meals did come out quickly. Not sure what to make of that. The booth we sat at was tight for space. Both my wife and I are average height individuals and were consistently bumping feet accidentally throughout our visit. Finally, the host. She was not rude. But she also was not pleasant at all. I am not even asking that the host be super chipper and overly eager to help. But I do expect you to be pleasant and polite. The host was neither. After my wife told her our party size, she simply grabbed some menus and started walking without making any gesture to us. It was not until my wife spoke up and said, "should we follow you", that we got a nod. She did say our server would be right with us when we were sat. We normally do not submit negative reviews as we are reasonable people that absolutely understand that mistakes can be made. And we want to be clear that we do not believe that our server, Kaitlynn H., was a good server. NONE of our complaint is directed at her. She was attentive and polite. However, this meal was not worth the $75 at all and ownership/management should be aware of the quality of the product they are serving. We will not be returning.

June Wadsworth: Waited over an hour to get food. Then it was wrong. Waiter never came to table he was more involved with the bar. Pieces where way to much. A little pretzel was 12.50 and it was for one person.

Bryan Scott: Coke was flat, turkey was dried out, hard and came in small pieces...essentially turkey jerky. We only got ONE piece of brisket in a two meat combo. Greens were good. Ribs were dry...mediocre at best and they were served on TOP of the waffle fries. The mac n cheese was boring...just noodles and cheese sauce...no melted cheese or breadcrumbs. Just another boring BBQ joint where nobody cares about the food they serve. The service was fine. 80 bucks for two meals and no alcohol. I would never go back.

Paige Pulter: Took my friend out for her birthday. Everyone was fine up until Cafeha offered me a drink and then pointed at my friends belly. Who is not pregnant. And said “we can offer you a mock tail”Disgusting. As a worker in the restaurant industry, or even a human being it absolutely disgust me that she even for a second believed that was okay. Wont be coming back after my first time experience was ruined in the first minute of being approached.

Davi L.: I had a great experience eating here in person, but I was really disappointed with my ubereats order. The food was cold and the quantity was really small, especially given the price. There were like two pieces of brisket and and like a half cup of pulled chicken. The quantity of coleslaw was enormous, which makes me feel like they just cheaped out on the expensive stuff.And when I say the food was cold, I don't mean not hot or not warm. It was cold.

Justin Wilson: I dont remember what the building used to be before, but this place is amazing. Definitely a college bar setting, but extremely family friendly. Not very pricey and the food is delicious. Check it out, u won't be disappointed

Alycia Vanbuskirk: We were seated waited 25 minutes and didn’t even get asked our drink order. A couple who got seated after us got drinks and their food order taken. They weren’t overly busy but I think they forgot about us. We decided to go somewhere else because we were to hungry to wait any longer.

nader almutairi: We had a double smash burger tastes good.

Adam Gardner: Horrible service waitress had 3 tables one was large but left almost as soon as we got there so she technically had 2. Saw her twice the entire time we were there. They were out of fish and when my food did come it wa just slapped down in front of me. No one asked if we needed anything else or checked on us. We were both done eating for well over 15 minutes I had my credit card out and she asked how the food was tasting. I told her we were ready to leave. She never asked if we needed any boxes or anything else. Will not be coming back to this location

Heather Swaenepoel: Great beer, great food, great service!

Hiroyuki Takisawa: クラフトビールをいただいてきました。とても気持ちの良いスタッフといい雰囲気の中、ミシガンの物を中心に様々なビールを楽しむことができます。フード類も全般的に美味しかったので、次はもっと長い時間をゆっくりと楽しみたいと思っています。

Michael Cosman: Tried to get dinner 5.15. Horrible service. The hostess girls couldn't be bothered to pick up two dirty beers glasses. Just starred at us. Waiter never came. Pathetic lazy people work there.

Darius Cook: Some of the worst customer service I’ve ever had we sat at a table for 10 minutes before our server (who was sitting at the bar) came to greet us. I didn’t order drinks because I was worried that we wouldn’t get them in a timely fashion due to all the employees sitting at the bar.

Jordi Vila: Hamburguesería HopCat. Situada en pleno downtown de Ann Arbor es un muy buen lugar para disfrutar de una buena hamburguesa y un pintas de tirador de lo más variadas.Las hamburguesas son contundentes, bastante conseguidas, en mi caso la que me gustó más fue la Payton Thorne con el huevo. Acompañadas de patatas que estan riquisimas rondan sobre los 14/15$. Las pintas cuestan sobre los 7/8$.Si os queda hueco no dudeis en pediros el Reese's pie. BRUTAL.Ketchup or Catsup? 😜Nota: 9,25/10

Jon Manthei: Had a burger and fries. It was really good. If you're a drinker, it will probably be 5 stars.. Service was also good.

Dan Ohm: Great beer selection. Friendly staff.A few vegetarian friendly options.

Ryan Soles: We ended up going here for my daughter's birthday. She said "This is the place for the best fries she ever had". We went on a Thursday around 5 pm and walked right in to open tables. The food was great even the fries. I would recommend the pretzel bites, Payton Thorne Burger, B.Y.O DBL Smash Burger, and the Honey BBQ Wings. The place was very large with a large bar and the table tops were pretty cool looking too.
