Killing time in Macomb and came across this neat bar/restaurant. I tried their 'chicken lips' and they were great! White breast meat and a variety of sauces! Sitting at the bar, watching sport and eating fab chicken! Highly recommend!

They are very very helpful doing business over the phone (bought a Gift Card - we lives 1,800 miles away) We bought the Gift Card because we heard they had great coffee and fast service. Thank you ever so much for helping fill our Christmas Wish List for our son. He just loves your Coffee House

This Dairy Queen appears to know what setting to use on their machines, unlike others that have very soft ice cream. It's a shame that it is only open from March to October.

Most gluten free pizza crusts taste like cardboard. The quality of the crust and the flavors of the pizza were top notch. I can see why this place has been in business since 1954.

After eating tenderloin sandwiches in what seems like a thousand restaurants one would think they can't get any better. Well, they would be wrong (on two counts. One is that it has probably not been a thousand restaurants!), and we just had an evening meal at Chubby's and their tenderloin sandwich is one of the best I have eaten, and I don't say that lightly. My wife had a pot roast and she said we should give them a two thumbs up on everything. All in all the food was really great, and the waitress (noted on the receipt as JBO) smiled every time she came to the table. It appeared she was really excited to help us. In every way it was a great experience. We would both highly recommend you head for Chubby's on the west side of the town square the next time you are in Macomb.
7. Guadalaraja Mexican Restaurant

We're not big fans of Mexican food, but we were visiting people who are, so we went to this popular little restaurant. First of all, I'm allergic to dairy products -- including cheese. So, I scan the menu for items without cheese, and there actually seem to be several. 'Good', I thought, but just in case, I'll verify, with my waiter, and come to find out, they DO put cheese in their refried beans. So, I ordered my meal (a pablano pepper/steak thing) , and asked him to serve the beans WITHOUT the cheese, which he said they could do. Unfortunately, when the meal came, not only was there cheese in the beans, but also in the main dish . . . . and neither had been mentioned in the menu. So, I fished the cheese out of both, as best I could, and ate what I could. But it's time for ALL restaurants to learn -- if it's in the food, put it on the menu. Don't assume that we know, or that it doesn't matter. And if we ask for it to be removed, remove it.

Kudos for the soups! My wonton soup contained shrimp, chicken, water chestnuts, pea pods, and more flavor than most wonton soups I have tasted. My wife had only praises for the tom yum soup. The pad thai was good, but nothing to write home about. We left over most of the eggplant in garlic sauce, and would not order it again.

Let me begin with the fact that Mngmnt put our server out on her own with our party being 12! Orders got messed up, after waiting 35 min Pizzas were delivered to the wrong table(wait time for replacement was 40 min), some orders forgotten all together. Over all, except for the Actual Pizza itself! was an unpleasant experience. To the Chefs: Best Pizza I've had in awhile! Good Job!

The table was beautifully set, decorations perfect, cake was superb. All the food was excellent, service was exceptional. The atmosphere exceeded my expectations, and the staff all made the evening very special for us, We felt as though they were all there just for us that evening, even though there were other diners being served too.
