WiseGuys Bar and Grill

My original review was far more ambivalent. Having gone there several times now, I realize I wrote it in haste. The innovation in food here is unexpected and outstanding and needs to be experienced.First, the ambiance ... it's a neighborhood bar and grill with a Rat Pack/Mafia theme. Kinda cheesy, but hey, it beats the standard themes you see in bars and chain restaurants. Not my thing, but then again, they have a poster about wisdom from The Godfather. That's cool.The waitstaff is, by and large, pretty good. Had a couple of unremarkable experiences, but by and large, servers are nice, attentive and friendly. Haven't had much experience with the bar aside from getting take-out; this is where I've found service to be the weakest. Take-out orders seem to be far lower on the priority list than bar patrons. Not sure why this is; we're both paying customers, so to be treated like I'm not there is less than appreciated. But we rarely do take-out, so it's easily avoided.As for the food, it runs the gamut. You have your standard bar fare; appetizers, burgers, pizza and more general cuisine. Those burgers? MONSTERS. They only come in one size -- half-pound -- and you pick the toppings, which are generously heaped on. Six slices of bacon? Yup, that's standard. Their loaded baked potato? Easily a nine-inch potato, probably half a pound in weight. The sandwiches? How about a combination Philly cheese streak/French dip? Once you've had it, you'll never eat either sandwich separately again. How about a turkey sandwich covered in spinach-artichoke dip on a pretzel roll? The appetiers are made to share, too; the boneless wings come in a serving of eight, which is almost a meal in and of itself in other restaurants. This is just the tip of the iceberg. They have some of the most unique food in the area, and it's in the last place you'd expect. Most places, I stick with one or two dishes. I think I've had eight or nine things here, and there's a few more yet to try on my list, like the calzones and the ribs. Oh, and I did I mention there's free popcorn while you wait for your food? THERE'S FREE FRESH POPPED POPCORN WHILE YOU WAIT.This is a hidden and unexpected gem. If you haven't been, go. Now.

Food always good. Service staff friendly and definitely attentive. Menu may be a little big but variety is nice too! Lots of TVs and I think 1 or 2 pool tables.

This is a great bar with an excellent staff. Huge menu with something for everyone. The popcorn is better than the movies and free. This is so hard to find these days and the reason we came here in the first place. Highly recommend.

Good bar and decent food. You can always get a cold drink and watch some good sports.

May 23, 2023. Food was good. Ambiance was good. Waitress (Cheri) would not make eye contact or really engage at all, but she was with other customers. Not sure what we did to offend her because we are always polite and tip well and aren't demanding. Maybe I just have an ugly face. Was looking forward to a nice dinner and left feeling like my evening was ruined. Really strange. Can't say I would return, which is unfortunate because we liked everything else. Sad waste of money and ruined night until I get over it. Seemed personal, geez.

My husband and I went to watch the Michigan National Finals. I ordered a pitcher that was supposedly $6 and a half order of Nachos. Not only were the Nachos over priced for a half order the nachos were extremely over saturated with nacho cheese that made the nachos soft. I ended up ordering an additional amount of nacho chips to compensate for the extreme amount of cheese. The waitress (Brandy) was completely unattentive and she instead of asking us if we need anything else she brought the bill a quarter in the game and also charging us $7.75 for the pitcher. After bringing it to her attention that the pitcher was charged $1.75 more than she said.. she then corrected it. Once we were done, we fairly tipped her at least 20% which I feel is fair. once we left I discovered that there was an additional Dollar charged to my bill without my consent. I would never recommend anyone to go to this place because nobody is entitled to take money from someone especially if the service and food wasnt up to par. This is completely unexceptable.

Have eaten here 4-5 times in over the summer of 2024. Basically, it's a decent place to grab a beer, and maybe an appetizer as long as you sit close to the bar, wouldn't recommend actually eating here though.Went Friday 11/8, and honestly, probably won't go back. Not sure if it was a new cook, or if there was a staffing issue but everything was bad. We got seated away from the bar and our waitress could give a rats ass if we were there, slow to get another beer. Food was absolutely awful. Had the Greek pizza and it was like an undercooked cheese pizza with cold toppings and dressing poured on top, basically was doughy and cold. My kid got a "grilled" turkey sandwich, and the bread was only toasted. Have had nachos in the past, and they were drenched in canned cheese. It's like some days they just don't care, definitely have consistancy issues.

Not very good honestly. The food we got was subpar and the service was just ok. The waitress wasn't very attentive. Even though she had a tablet to take an order with both our orders were wrong. Will not be returning.

Unbelievably bad. We decided to try again after a bad experience almost 2 years ago (that time, the appetizers were fried in old oil). Of the items we ordered, the burger was the "best" thing, but that isnt saying much. There are far, far better places in the immediate area.

We have gone here a few times every time we've gone it was really good... Everything was hot Service was great. I would recommend this place.
