Wait is very long, but inexpensive, fresh, and genuinly good sushi. The special Spicy Salmon roll and Michigan roll are my favorites. FYI, they're pretty big

A bit far, but one of my all time favorites. Udon Noodles, Curry, Grilled Fish (Cod or yellowtail) and Himuro are my go to's, with a side of spicy tuna roll (it's done differently here), and/or spicy yellowtail roll

Tai Pan Bakery
31666 John R RdPretty cool ice cream place that is a throwback to the 50's. Pretty popular, so expect a line, but the icecream is worth it.

Good places for live music in the area
Very fun, loud, and exciting. A divey throwback place that claims to be the oldest. Catch the gorilla funk mob if you can! I wasn't impressed with the mac n' cheese, but maybe I just got the wrong thing. There is usually a cover

Dennis Coffey (Guitarist for many motown tunes, and rumor has it that he was the one who came up with the "My Girl" intro) plays every tuesday evenings. Fun place to be, there's chess, shuffleboard, and of course drinks and burgers. No cover.

Classy establishment. Music has always been good here - Check the website if there is a cover or not. No comment on the food - it's expensive. But their drinks are good.

Good place for a special date night. Very upscale jazz establishment. You need to reserve tables in advance. The food is ok, as with the music, but the entire experience combined left me looking back at it very fondly.

The diviest of all dive bars. This place is an experience. The music... not so good, but the grilled cheese was good. But if you're looking for a crazy night, this place has character.
