First off.... wow this place has changed and hasnt changed a lot in the past 30 years. We stopped in to kill an hour while waiting to get into the Monsterjam pit party at Ford Field. The place was packed with folks of the same mindset. Service was great, food was great, really glad to see the Elwood stood the test of time and evolved to benefit from the Detroit revival. My favorite part of my visit was seeing the (manager) mistake a customer for a vagrant, asking him to vacate the establishment, the struggle is real and its nice to see some things never change.... for the record, I too would have made the assumption, she was very apologetic to the gent.
Such a great place! We had super fast service and yummy food, cooked perfectly to order! Kristina was a delight as a server! I highly recommend stopping here before a Tigers game!
On a game day a perfect place to meet up... it's only open on game days. I loved my steak melt my son enjoyed a burger.
What a great spot to enjoy a couple adult beverages before a Lions or Tigers game. Coming in from out of town for the 3rd or 4th year in a row to catch a Lions game and have never had anything but friendliness and great service. Best location in Detroit being literally right in between Comerica and Ford.
Excellent experience. Our server; Christina, was so nice & happy. We had the Chicago dog/fries. Hot dog had good quality meat.
We loved this place! Great location and great service. We went on a super busy and extremely hot day. There was a baseball game plus the Taylor Swift Concert. The servers were all wearing Taylor Swift merch. The music was Taylor Swift music. I thought this was such a great place to bring my daughter too. The servers were very patient and friendly. I didn't feel rushed and they kept coming by to check in on us for drinks and all. The food was really good also. We ordered a veggie burger and a beef burger. She said the coke was unlimited refills, this was cool! The vibe of this place was so cool. Although it was swarming with people, it was still clean, even the busy bathrooms downstairs were very clean. The outdoor patio was very pretty, busy but well tended too. There was a long line up to get in but that was expected due to everything going on there. This is definitely a great place to enjoy a meal and a drink.
Went before the Tiger Game. The other place was TOO LOUD!! and sat a table for 10 minutes and nobody said boo to us. Great service, Great food, Great way to have a meal and talk to friends before a game! Thank You!!!!
What a great hidden gem. Good food, great service!! Would definitely recommend it & will be back to visit again
