Took the kids with them back in town. The flavors are a real strength of this restaurant. Excellent service. Pricing feels just right as well.
The Turkish Sammy. Sooooooooo good. Five star. Service, atmosphere. All of it. I normally only post something if I love it, or if I hate it. (Which I think is most people). But damn, the menu, and particularly the Sandwich I had... "Hey good lookin, whatsya got cookin,,,, how 'bout cookin somethin up for me".
First, I love the decor and the booths are so cozy. The lighting at night is perfect, not too dark and not too bright. We also had great service. I got the Purple Gang for my drink and it was refreshing, but not too sweet. To eat I got the Kruez Burger and wow. That might be my favorite burger in Detroit. It was so comforting with the soft sesame seed bun and the spices in the patty are great.
This place feels like a hidden gem, sandwiched in the most popular neighborhood in Detroit, this restaurant goes above and beyond. The burger was super tasty. Drinks were beautiful and tasty, this place is also kid friendly because it's loud and had sweets! Schnitzel was a big hit
The restaurant was very attractive -- hanging plants and interesting decor all over the place. I loved that they left a glass milk bottle of water at the table for us. (We drank most of it!) The server was very nice. The menu is very unusual; it was a bit difficult to know which things were which. The main issue(s) for me were that, while they did tell us that they serve food as it comes out of the kitchen, they did NOT say that it could be 20 minutes between people in the same party being served. I don't think that explaining it excuses it. My friend was just about finished eating by the time my meal finally came. They also didn't note that things like fries and falafel are spicy. I did ask for the spicy sauce on the side, but the both the entree and the side turned out to be spicy as well. The other issue was that the plates are made of a light plastic material, and every time my friend cut her chicken, her plate jumped a little bit, which was annoying to her. If I come here again, I will have more of an idea of what to order; the flatbread with hummus would probably have been a better choice for me.
Daughter came here the day before and thought it was so good she wanted to show me and her husband. She ordered the same thing, a kale salad. I tried the salad and it was fantastic as it included donor meat. Donor meat is a combo of beef and lamb broiled on a vertical spit. For an appetizer we had the pictured hummus which came with great seasoning. I had the pictured donor sandwich which had a ton of pickled peppers along with the meat. The bread was a thin layer, probably fried, and added to a perfect sandwich. Very trendy decor and excellent service.
Stopped by Supergeil for a late lunch over the weekend. I was hoping for the brunch menu, but it must be a sunday only thing! The lunch menu was pretty dang good too though - everything was super fresh and so flavorful, tasty! *LUTENITZA $11 (roasted peppers, fresno chili, pomegranate, walnut) - I've never had Lutenitza before but this flavorful dip reminded me of muhammara with the complexity of the sweet, sour and umami flavors. It also had a lil' texture to it! This was served with a LOVELY warm pide topped with fresh oregano. Amazing. *DEVILED EGGS $8 (pimento olive vin, salmon roe, dill) - These were served as 4 halves with two of each flavor. No complaints on these; I also like that the temperature was right (slightly chilled because no one likes room temp deviled eggs kthx!!) *BEET & CARROT $10 (apple, mint, carrot, clementine, sunflower seed) - this salad was a great side. It packed such a punch of flavor for really simple ingredients. The clementine gave it a really nice brightness. *EGGPLANT DONER $15 (tahini, apricot amba, cucumber, tomato, lettuce) - Honestly I probably wouldn't have ordered this if our server didn't recommend it but it was FANTASTIC. The eggplant was thinly sliced, fried coins so no mushy eggplant texture. The amba and tahini combo was so savory, umami -- almost like a mayo but without any actual mayo!! They also cut it in half for us so we could easily share. I have a feeling that as the Michigan Central re-opens, SuperGeil is going to get busier & busier!! Free street parking.
We had dinner there around 5:30 and it was the perfect time to beat the rush. The food was absolutely delicious! I had the red and Lamb Doner and husband had the Fish and Chips. Both were very good, all bite size meats and fish. They used Bronzino fish for the fish and chips, which was a nice change from cod. The place is beautifully decorated, very hip, earthy, nice bar and a large room for parties. I will be back to try more dishes. This was a good spot before heading over to the DIA!
