Beezy's

Reviewed By MstqMI

This is pretty much a self serve restaurant- as other reviews have stated- you order at the counter, they call your name to pick it up (along with utensils) and then clean up your own table. My son, grandson & I had breakfast- it was good but nothing special. My grandson liked the little kitchen play area in the corner. Not sure if I'd go again.

Harvest Moon Cafe

Reviewed By johncP9082BH

Not a bad place to grab a breakfast. Menu had many items, but settled on my go to, a BLT with fried eggs. This was an amazing sandwich that had to be eaten with a knife and fork. I like over easy eggs.Wait staff was efficient but not overly so. Order was taken promptly and food was delivered quickly, after that, Hello!Harvest Moon is not a Coney Island nor is it a 5 Star establishment. What it is, is a place to get a good breakfast.They do serve sandwiches and dinner entrees, wine, mixed drinks and draft bier.Ein Prosit.

The Golden Egg

Reviewed By johncP9082BH

If you are looking for a Trending Place or a Cordon Bleu Restaurant, then walk away. The Golden Egg is an excellent place to get a good meal, at a great price with outstanding service. My vegetarian skillet was amazing. Broccoli was charred enough to bring out it’s sweetness, potatoes were awesome and eggs cooked perfectly.I expected to hear Flo say, “Mel, Eat My Grits.” I will returnEin Prosit.

I've been going to Bill's since I moved to the area from Detroit. Nobody does a better hog dog with chili and onions. The prices are reasonable and the service is exceptional. You literally pull into the parking lot and other your meal....doesn't get to much better than that!

Cultivate Coffee And Taphouse

Reviewed By E8702QDtoms

What a great selection of beers on tap! (They also specialize in coffee, but that's not what we were here for on this after-work visit.) Their beer garden is wonderful! Great place to hang out with friends or by yourself. They sometimes feature live music, and community groups use the space for gatherings.

They catered for many years before opening this fabulous eatery in Ypsilanti. They call themselves a Cafe and it indeed is more cafe than a restaurant. The menu changes daily but with many standards including Shrimp N Grits, Fish and Scallops, Vegetarian and Vegan Fare, Mac and Cheese, and Flatbread Pizza. They have a 5 to 7 happy hour daily as well.

I stopped into Aubree's after a long meeting. Immediately, it was clear that locals and regulars get the most attention and preferred service. My order and service was an afterthought.

We waited in a line of around 30 people to be seated. The decor was great and all of the staff were dressed like Rosie the Riveter! All women were given a rose. We weren’t aware that today was Rosie the Riveter day! This was our first visit. Our 3 year old daughter loves planes. The reviews didn’t disappoint. The food all comes in large portions and was delicious. The prices were very fair. The service and atmosphere were great. We’ll definitely be back to try more items off of the menu. We ordered the French toast with captain crunch, country fried steak and the sunrise open face biscuit.

Our visit started with a flight to get the lay of the land...we liked Euchre, the Strawberry Blonde & the cider.

Sidetrack Bar & Grill

Reviewed By Marty F

Sidetrack is well-known for its burgers -once rated in the Top Ten in the U.S. Beyond burgers, they have a wide-rangeing menu of sandwiches, salads, soups, even steaks and other mains.I've long been a fan of their Fresh Salmon ($12.95) -- "Fresh baked salmon stuffed w/ fresh spinach & artichokes (or unstuffed) served w/rice pilaf & grilled asparagus". I prefer the unstuffed version, as the stuffing seems overly rich and masks the flavor of the salmon itself. Sidetrack has great sweet potato fries, which you can sub in this entree for a modest upcharge. I really recommend this!Beer? You bet! Sidetrack has a tremendous selection of craft beers, with lots of world-class Michigan beers leading the way. Bottom line, looking past the noisy environment, a good place for a great burger, a great beer and plenty of other choices. Recommended!
