Square One Eats and Treats

Service was great. All the staff were dressed in Dalmatian costumes for Halloween coming up. Very cute.What would we order again?Italian vegetable soup - Excellent. This has been cooking awhile. Flavors blended together beautifully.Cherry Salmon with Brussel Sprouts - My boyfriend loved it. Not too sweet. Flavorful. Salmon was cooked perfectly.Lemon Drop with Belvedere VodkaBread with melted butter brushed on topWhat would we not order again?Baked spaghetti - It's very good. The sauce is savory not sweet. Meatballs are generous. Plenty of sauce and cheese. This dish seemed put together and baked to order. The meatballs, sauce and pasta didn't seem blended together for hours prior. So it tasted like I ate three separate things that were in the same bowl vs working together as one dish. It was good. Glad I tried it. It's more my preference on how I like baked spaghetti. I would just try something else next time.

First time here. I think I could eat here every day. Really broad selection on the menu, particularly with all of the great brunch options. Started with the Pickle Fries, which I haven't seen served that way before but were amazing and perfectly seasoned. My French dip did seem like it had been sitting at the window for a while (cheese had time to congeal and fries weren't hot), but the middle of the sandwich was still hot and tasted good. Significant other had the potato egg cups (possibly the source of my dish sitting) and they were really good. Food coming out for other tables all looked really good too, so only a slight ding on their score. Waitress came by shortly after serving our food to make sure everything was ok and I didn't complain, so to be fair I did not give them the option to potentially fix it or bring fresh fries. I think we will definitely come back and give it another try. Especially with the depth of their menu.

This was our first visit to Square One. We were greeted shortly after we arrived by Bob the owner who was very welcoming and told us about the menu, particularly how almost all of their pasta is made from scratch in house. Our server was delightful. I would call her out by name but I can't be sure I am remembering her name....might be Kristina. Maybe Jacquelin? This is a challenge to come up with a star rating. If Yelp allowed half stars I would probably give it a 3.5. But, I rounded up as it's clear the owner and staff really want to make sure the customer is happy with their meal. I started with the French onion that is uniquely served with a scissors. Nice touch! The soup was very good....not overly salty as onion soup can be at many places. My only minor gripe is the croutons had a "flavor" or seasoning to them I didn't care for. Personally I don't think the croutons in baked onion soup need to be seasoned. I had the chicken parm. I thought it was nicely done with a side of pasta that was very good. One issue I had with the chicken parm is that at least in my opinion chicken parm should be medallions rather than a thick piece of chicken. That being said the chicken was tender and a nice portion. My wife had the eggplant pesto melt sandwich which she said was delicious. When it was served there were very few French fries on the plate and soggy and our waitress told her she would bring her more. Turned out that was the bottom of the fries and they had to make her more. She asked for them crispy and when they brought them the fries were great. Honestly, they shouldn't have thrown the handful of soggy fries on the plate originally.Our friends had the herb grilled vegetable fettuccini which he enjoyed, maybe a bit too much oil for his taste. and eggplant Parmesan which was sliced too thick for her liking. The server was happy to replace it for something else. Three of us had glasses of wine which were generous pours. Prices are pretty reasonable. This is a family friendly restaurant so be aware you might be seated next to a high chair with a baby so if that's not what you are looking for on a night out keep that in mind. All in all considering the lack of good restaurants in Waterford, this is a good neighborhood spot to try. Something for everyone on the menu and everyone from the owner to the host is very customer friendly. I have included some photos but somehow I forgot my chicken parm!

Excellent food and service. I have only one complaint: a credit card fee called a "merchant fee". Just NOT happy with these extra fees.

We went for a weekday lunch and it was delicious! Great fast friendly service. Enjoyed the iced coffee flight! My friend liked the blueberry french toast and the potato cups were great! Would love to go back and try more and try dinner. Loved there was shelf for families of activities and games.

My husband and I really enjoy this place. Breakfast can be a little pricey, but the quality is outstanding. Best espresso martini flights I've tried! They have flights of all kinds of beverages which makes for a fun outing with friends and family. I especially like the build a bowl/omelette option. Hearty, delicious and customizable to exactly the way I want it. The Mediterranean turkey burger may be one of the best turkey burgers I've ever eaten! That's definitely going into the rotation! Service is really great. The wait staff is friendly and helpful. That makes a huge difference in the experience. This is a casual laid back restaurant with great food, drinks and staff!

My husband and went here for brunch. We found the food and drinks to be beautiful and delicious. We got the chicken and waffle sliders, the Blueberry French Toast Casserole, the Ice Coffee flights, and the Espresso Martinis. If you're going, be prepared to pay a bit more, but the money is well-worth it. We left stuffed and had a great time. Our server was so sweet and cute. She took really good care of us and we suggested drizzling the frosting from the casserole onto the chicken sliders and she loved the idea! Very cute place!

Just an awesome place to have dinner in Pontiac, MI! We were very fortunate to have Ever as our waitress and she was on point. Personable, quick with the refills, professional and ensured we were served swiftly and efficiently. Their homemade pizza rolls (appetizer) is delightful and I opted for their meatloaf (I added wild mushrooms which elevated the dish) and really enjoyed it. Paired with a delicious tomato bisque soup and you have a combo that's going to beat the chill in the air for sure! The vibe was a family / local establishment but it was well managed by Megan and we were treated like family - highly recommend you give this place a try!

Love all the boozy flight options and the blueberry French toast casserole was so amazing! The iced coffee flight was delicious and even had coffee ice cubes ;)

The food is incredible. The staff is amazing. We just keep coming back for more and more!
