Mabel Gray- Hazel Park

Enjoy an unforgettable meal with personal service, handwritten menus, and a fresh, comfortable atmosphere at Mabel Gray. According to the Detroit Free Press:

There are tried-and-true classics, like steak frites, a 60-day dry-aged, bone-in American wagyu strip steak served with a hearty bowl of house-made fries decorated with pecorino and herbaceous clippings of fresh rosemary. And there are seasonal appearances, like a fall sweet corn tossed in umami miso butter, citrusy preserved lemon, and salty, crunchy bits of chicharrónes.

Tomato Brothers- Howell

Classic Italian food with a must-try menu item. According to the Livingston Daily:

People come for the classic Italian and Greek menu: the tasty pizza and meatballs, and the pasta portions as big as your head. But really, truly, they come for the breadsticks — an unintended family addition that's known across the country, and even by celebrity actor Dax Shepard.
