My 200th review could not be more fitting than to praise this little restaurant! I have been to Roast a few times, and Rino's, in my opinion is even better when it comes to food alone for a fraction of the price.
Tucked away right off Ouelette on…More »
Making Fish and Chips for over 100 years here in Windsor and the best Fish and Chips in the Detroit-Windsor area !!!!!
It is Heather Bells first, then Sir Cedric's and then Scotty Simpson's for my choices in that order !
As far as Windsor and…More »
This could be Windsor and Detroit's best kept secret...
If I could give 6 stars for a restaurant, this would be it. There is no place in Windsor or the Detroit area like the Ukrainian Restaurant. It is like walking back in time and this is one…More »
Some of the best Pho I have had to date ! I really like Pho Nguyen Hoang !!
Pho Nguyen is about 5 or 6 blocks west of Ouelette and is recognizable by their blue sign. This area of Wyandotte Street has many Asian restaurants. Pho Nguyen has been here…More »
If there are dead animals hanging, you know you are in for a treat ! This little area of Wyandotte Street is flooded with Asian restaurants and it is quite by accident that I went here. You see, I was headed down the street to Pita Grill, but they…More »
Another little gem in Windsor, Pho Xic-Lo Vietnamese Noodle House !! The real bitch about coming across the river to Windsor is that you have to decide which 5 star hole in the wall to go to ! Don't get me wrong, there are crappy places to go to in…More »
I have waited to review the Pita Grill as I had to come back a few times to make sure if what I was experiencing was actually happening. I can't even begin to tell you how lucky we are as Americans to have the Pita Grill next to us in the city of…More »
Centro is in Via Italia or Windsor's "Little Italy" on East Erie Street. This part of Windsor has many Italian restaurants, some of which are exceptional. Centro would be in this category.
Very good pizza here at Centro !
However, they also have good…More »
Spago's seems to be the only authentic Italian restaurant in Windsor or Detroit. I have never been disappointed here as everything is homemade to perfection. The thing I like about this place is that the prices are extremely reasonable, the service…More »
Redefine all past Italian restaurant experiences. Again and again the Windsor area seems to show me Italian made in the old world way ! I have two favorite Italian restaurants and this is one of them.
I love this place, Such a great family, great…More »
Simply effing incredible 5 star pizza !! It is right in there with the best of the best. Simple incredible old world beautiful orgasmic pizza...oh how I love Terra Cotta ! It is a warm and cozy little pizzeria in a friendly environment ! It is thin…More »
Dragons Inn is at W Wyandotte and Randolph and is another 5 star hidden gem in Windsor. They are open late too.
Dragon's Inn has been around for quite a few years. It is not the most fancy place and the service is not the best either, but some of the…More »
I am quite surprised again that I am the first to leave a review for the Szechuan Garden as it has been one of Windsor's best Chinese restaurants for years.
It always has wonderful service, friendly and the food is so fresh. This place is a treasure !…More »
I am quite surprised that I am the first one to review Wah Kee. Tucked away on Sandwich Street is where you find Wah Kee, just south of the bridge. It is nothing fancy, but it is very authentic and some items on the menu are incredible.
I have been…More »
I have been to Sir Cedric's many many times.... even when I was a little kid and what I can tell you is that this place has been the same since the 70's.
This is Fish and Chips and from what I have always understood, Sir Cedric's has been around in…More »
20 Stars for Brenners ! I am so hooked on their hot dogs that I am pacing back and forth, since I am down to my last 2 hot dogs (pic submitted). I will never buy another brand of hot dogs ever again ! They are so good !
If you can remember BOBLO…More »
Basil Court is like no other. When you come here, the front of the restaurant off Ouellette it is what appears to be a small narrow awning, but Basil Court is underneath, a basement of sorts on a lower level. There is the fish tank and decor from the…More »
Wow, I was really surprised by this little place. Tucked away in East Windsor on the corner of Pillette and Seminole Streets, directly across the river from Belle Isle, is the little AA Corner Grill. Inside it is a little tacky, but this is part of…More »
My favorite Middle Eastern restaurant in the Windsor/Detroit area and a gem located on Wyandotte Street here in Windsor. It is certainly better than anything I have ever had in Dearborn.
To clarify, this is a Iraqi restaurant and so good. Perhaps one…More »
A treasure of a little place out in Southwest Ontario farmland.
When you come upon Ure's Country Kitchen on the corner of Concession Road 6 and County Rd 20 just east of Amherstburg, you have to wonder if they serve food. It is a convenience store/…More »
Thank You Rob D. !!! I decided to jump the border and give MotorBurger a try and holy crap ! I am completely blown away by the burger I had. It was the best burger I have ever had and I have tried every place in the states. Every nook, cranny, hole,…More »
A time gone by perhaps.... when you drive down Tecumseh Road East in Windsor, on the corner of Norman and Tecumseh is a little convenience store with it's old "coke" sign and the store is called BULAT'S Confectionery Store.
So often when you drive by…More »
A meat market that I wish was in Detroit ! Very clean and a awesome selection of meat !
I like the Brenner's hot dogs that they sell here which were the same dogs served at Boblo Island many years ago - a all beef hot dog like no other. They are…More »
You can put this one up against anything in Detroit or Windsor !!!! Incredible pizza here at Vito's Pizzeria and it is not just pizza here either ! In 1954, the family that runs Vito's came over from Sicicly, Italy and brought their recipes with them…More »
"Meadows by The Lake" is southwest of Harrow at the corner of County Rd 41 and County Rd 50 has been here since 1928. When it was first built, it was really just a gas station with a small store and then in the 1930's, it was turned into tavern with…More »
I decided to give Bac Lieu a try as another place that I like was closed. Bac Lieu is a little restaurant that sits on the corner of Wyandotte and Crawford Ave.
The first thing I noticed here is the decor is terrible. TERRIBLE !! However, who cares !…More »
On my first visit to Diana's my feeling was wow how could I have missed this place. It is hard to put a finger on Diana pizza, because it is not just pizza; however, my four stars are based on their pizza. Their pizza is very good and on my first few…More »
Wow, ..... maybe it is time to readjust the scale on Lebanese cuisine. This is better than most Lebanese restaurants I have been to and I have been to quite a few. Mazaar is as good as any restaurant in Dearborn and I like it as much as another…More »
If there is ever a grocer to just see women, this is it ! Good god almighty, I was actually heading across the street to Mrs Bulat's store (the coke just tastes better there) who is actually a story in her own, but she was closed as her hours are as…More »
Wow, I am always trying to find new places and I have to tell you how I came across the Back Road Cafe ! A hidden breakfast gem !
They probably call it the Back Road Cafe, since it is really tucked away in Windsor in a area where you would never think…More »
Ok, this place may be need to be updated inside, but I don't care if there are chickens flying around inside of the restaurant and little Asian kids playing randomly as their parents prepare food, because this is a very good restaurant.
Shin Shin has…More »
I have driven by the Garden Buffet many times, but until recently, I have never stopped there. It's location is in a newly developed area of Windsor as so many things have seemed to "pop" up down here on Walker Rd.
When I came here, I had to wonder…More »
House of Lee Restaurant is a funky little place that is all 1960's inside next to a massage business. However, make no mistake about it, House of Lee is a good Chinese restaurant. Many of the items on their menu are 5 star.
One thing is their spring…More »
Millions of Chinese restaurants in Windsor exist and Pomegranate has been around for 40 years. For me, that is what encouraged me to try Pomegranate and it is a very good restaurant. Tucked away next to a extremely busy Tim Horton's is where you will…More »
I met a woman from Windsor some time ago who always talked up the Chicken Delight ! It was always Chicken Delight this and Chicken Delight that and as time went on, I forgot about her and the Chicken Delight. Years went by and one day, I drove by the…More »
I have been to May Wah Inn three times and I feel like maybe I should give it more time before giving a review. May Wah Inn is a good restaurant and it has fairly descent dim sum, but let's face it, it is no Wah Court. That being said, May Wah Inn…More »
4.5 stars for Paul's Kitchen...
I have to fill you in about Paul's Kitchen. It is a busy little place and word of mouth says it is Windsor's best breakfast. I am not sure if it is the best, but it is damn good. On my recent visit, there were people…More »
I am teetering on 3.8 Stars. I like the Taloola and its a convenient location just off Riverside Drive in a cool older building in the Walkerville area, but their prices are a little steep, I think. It's a great concept to have a mostly all organic…More »
So, this is Western Chinese food ? Actually, Li's has been around for quite some time and although it is not perfect, it is pretty good. When I look at their menu when I come here, I have to laugh that they have french fries and gravy on the menu !…More »
I love this place ! I wish there was a Value-Mart in Detroit.
My first experience with Value-Mart was in Thessalon, Ontario and it is such a cool little grocery store. The Value-Mart in Belle River is much larger than that of Thessalon of course.
