The best sliders in town hands down! Anyone and everyone would recommend Green Dot Stables. Plan to wait an hour or more on a weekend or holiday night. Don't worry, its worth it!

Apparently this place is world famous. It is located near the Michigan Central Station. The stretch of Michigan Ave where it is located is proof of the progress Detroit has seen in the last few years.

Anthony Bourdain chose this as his favorite coney island in Detroit. Really interesting atmosphere. Its similar to a bar, but serves up eggs and toast instead of alcohol.

A choice for Chinese cuisine that is close by with decent Chinese cuisine. Would recommend Panda Chinese over Ho Ho's though.

Very cheap pizza, but not to say its bad. I like this place also because they have Mexican style pizza, which is a nice change from traditional pizza. No Dine in option.

My personal choice for a good pizza. A bit pricey compared to others in the area, but worth the extra few bucks if you have them. No dine in option.
