My wife and I have been here about 54-5 times. It's one of those ho yo places for good cocktails and great restaurant created own style good eats. We ate appetizers and had great drinks. Service was spot on. And the ambience is a dark ceiling, way speak vibe. Although there's no pictures than the sinks we had, I can post. We enjoyed the Ube Thurman mix drink and the Whirlwind of lies mix drink. We also enjoyed the appetizers. Steak Frites, Bang, Bang Shrimp

Went for the Harry Potter pop up event so the review is based off of the experience that I received during that pop up. Ambiance: The decorations were well done and they encompassed the atmosphere of the IP. Definitely was impressed with the decorations and the way the bathroom was also decorated.Food: I ordered the steak bites, and was sadly disappointed. My food came out cold, and the portion sizes were small. The Butterbeer was sad, and did not really taste that great. Price was absolutely sky high for the portion sizes that were dispersed. My friend ordered the churros and pierogi for the table, and both orders were about $14-17 each and each order came with 4 miniature churros and 4 mini pierogis. Service: The service was unfortunately poor during my first experience at Iron Gate Bar. My fiancée has some dietary restrictions and asked the waitress to ask the kitchen to see if they could accommodate and the waitress left to ask. Then our entire table received our food and the waitress said she had forgotten to ask and now would go back to ask again. We did not see her again, until it was time to cash out. Based solely on this experience, I will most likely not visit again during a pop up event.

Great pop up for Christmas and changes throughout the year. This was Christmas Vacation themed when we went but it was Harry Potter prior. Cocktails and apps is what we went for. We were not disappointed. Red Ryder was the best. Atmosphere was fun. Server was very helpful and guided us to some great selections.

Iron Gate is one of the best small plate restaurant/bar! My boyfriend and I go here frequently and have never been disappointed! We order a bunch of different things to share and split and the drinks are way too good. My favorite cocktail is the Carrot Boi. Some favorite plates of ours is the Elote Churros, Bianco flatbread, and the chicken sammy. Although their menu changes we see these items frequently! We made a reservation during the fall to experience the harry potter themed menu and it was amazing! We look forward to every dine in experience here!

My husband & 2 of our friends drove out to MIS for their Christmas Nite Lites and decided to stop here to check out their Christmas pop up on our way back home. I would definitely recommend reservations because it is a small space, but it is absolutely worth going! Since we made a last minute decision to come here & didn't have a reservation we sat at the bar. The service was fantastic & the food was AMAZING! The tots were crispy on the outside & almost a mashed potato filling on the inside & the bacon jam & crème fraiche were the perfect pairing. My husband had the Das Burger & said it's the best burger he's had in a loooong time. I had the spicy udon noodles with egg & I am STILL thinking about it a whole week later!Our friends ordered the pierogis and steak frites & were raving about their food & drinks as well. Absolutely zero complaints & we will absolutely be back! We are already working on picking a day to go back!

We love Christmas pop-ups and I'd heard great things about The Iron Gate, so despite the fact that I unknowingly made reservations the night of the Lion-Green Bay game, we drove 35 minutes out to Wyandotte to check it out. When we first walked in, I was surprised at how small the place is. No wonder it's so difficult to get a table during their awesome pop-ups! The decorations are fantastic. We showed up a half hour early, but snagged a of couple seats at the bar for a round of cocktails. My husband had the Mele Kalikimaka and I splurged on the Black Magic, served in Santa's sleigh. We were having a great time and the service at the bar was excellent, so we decided to stay there when our table was ready. I asked our fabulous bartender for her recommendation for round two and absolutely loved her pick of the Exterior Illumination. It wasn't like anything I'd ever tried before and that snickerdoodle foam was heavenly! Their food was a really nice surprise. Our favorite of the night was Cousin Eddie's Disco Tots - They were these crispy on the outside and really creamy on the inside "tots" with bacon jam, pimento cheddar, pickled onion and chive creme fraise. We also shared and loved the Butternut Squash Cornbread and Dat Chicken Sammy. This was no ordinary "bar food". We really enjoyed our experience at The IronGate and will definately make the trip again. We were even home in time to catch the majority of the football game!

Iron Gate Bar is fantastic, in every respect. Our server was very attentive and courteous, and the food and drinks were outstanding. The location is ideal as well; it's situated right on Biddle Street in downtown Wyandotte. If you're looking for a classy cocktail bar with great food, you've found it.

This place is great for there theme's for holidays. I have been for Halloween and Christmas and they really put their all into the decorations and what not and the food and very good. I think they need a head chef though because rhe food does not come out together though for instance the last time I was there I order a pot roast dinner and my husband ordered a salmon dinner and he got his food and could have basically finished it and I was still sitting waiting and our server may have had to many table that she couldn't handle and she didn't notice this so she was running around so much I couldn't get her attention to ask her if maybe something happened to my plate. But as I was sitting waiting it was other tables getting partial orders of their meals to. Well anyway besides that it's a great experience and yummy drinks. I worked in food industry for 10 years so I get it can get overwhelming but I believe maybe 1 more server would have help the floor out alot.

Iron Gate has quickly become one of our favorite spots for a date night downriver. We've always experienced delicious drinks, fantastic food, and superb service.The menu evolves with the seasons and this extends to the cocktails as well as the shareable starters, entrees, and desserts.I don't think we've ever ordered the same thing twice and we were also never let down on a single menu choice. We have some clear favorites though so if you get the chance to try these items, you'll see what I'm talking about:Elote Churros, Korean Disco Potatoes, Pierogi, a root vegetable salad I forgot the name of, and so much more...Favorite cocktails for me are the House Old Fashioned, and the Ube Thurman. My husband likes the bitter/earthy flavors and really enjoyed the Unlikely Negroni. The bar is stocked with leveled up ingredients, syrups, garnishes, and alcohol offerings. Parking can be found on the street if you're lucky but there's usually ample parking available in the public lot behind the building.

Went to Iron Gate last night for the Harry Potter event, and it did not disappoint! The themed decor was so fun, creating a cozy and magical setting. The service was great as well. We sat at the bar, and our bartender was friendly, helpful, and attentive, allowing me to switch out my drink for something more to my liking. Our favorite cocktails were the Whining Myrtle and the Life Eater. The elote churros were amazing! Crispy on the outside, soft and fluffy on the inside, and such good flavor. Mains ordered were the spicy udon noodles and the chicken Sammy, both very tasty. Finished the night off with the Cauldron Cake - chocolatey, crunchy from the toffee, and a perfect end to our meal. This place is an hour drive from us, but I'll definitely be looking for an opportunity to come back. Thanks, Iron Gate, for a wonderful, Harry Potter-filled birthday evening!
