Customer Reviews
Best Halal place in Royal oak!!!! I had the Detroit burger yesterday and it was divine. It had an egg, a beef patty, and a slice of steak. Everything was seasoned perfectly and I love a sunny side egg with the yolk runny, and it didn’t have the yucky uncooked whites. I got the Cajun fries and asked for extra Cajun seasoning. Today we had the beef lo mein and it was also to die for. They put some lima beans in it, which I’ve never had before, but I loved it. The beef was so soft instead of the annoying chewy steaks that are in most lo mein. Get some soy sauce packets though, because I need my noodles soaked and drenched. The butter chicken with garlic naan is yum. I like it more than the cheese naan. Not a fan of the General Tso since I don’t like sweet stuff. 24 hours later and no stom
Don’t skip the fries. Seriously. They’re crispy and perfectly seasoned with paprika and some other subtle spices that give them this really good, slightly smoky flavor. They’re not your basic, bland side — they actually have personality. The service was great too, which always makes a difference. It’s set up as an outdoor order window with a handful of high-top tables outside, so it has that fun, street-food energy. You grab your food and just chill outside, which I love when the weather’s nice. It’s casual, quick, and hits the spot every time. Definitely one of those low-key local favorites that just gets it right.
Everything was delicious. Jamaican beef patty was crispy and savory. Chicken lamb over rice was served with tender meat and the perfect sauce. The butter chicken was also silky smooth with tender chicken and chewy chicken. Enjoyed with my fresh basil lemonade and great fast service.
Detroit Eatery was an incredible experience from start to finish. We decided to try a variety of dishes so we could really get a feel for the menu, and every single item exceeded our expectations. We ordered four dishes including butter chicken, chicken 65, General Tso’s chicken, and lo mein, and it was honestly hard to pick a favorite because they were all that good. The butter chicken was rich, creamy, and full of flavor without being too heavy. The chicken was tender and cooked perfectly, and the sauce had the ideal balance of spice and smoothness. The chicken 65 had amazing flavor and a great kick to it. It was crispy on the outside, juicy on the inside, and seasoned extremely well. The General Tso’s chicken was another standout with the perfect mix of sweetness, spice, and crunch, an
Great food great place. My favorite 😍 is chicken and lamb NY style rice bowl omelet so good. And now I've tried the butter chicken and yes it's spicy but it's good really good. Can't wait to try more. Most definitely coming back.
