Had a lovely dinner here last night! This was my first time stopping in, and my first time dining in Clawson, both great experiences. There is parking outside the restaurant, very convenient. The service was fabulous. Our waitress took really good care of us. The drinks were good, and the food was top-notch. The overall vibe of the place was dope, I loved the lighting in the area by the bathrooms. The bikes in the center of the restaurant were beautiful. Definitely recommend it if as a good dinner spot.

Service was great, food was ok,
When we dined there were a few large parties, another party was waiting to take the event space.
I think we came in when there was a shift transition, food wasn’t impressive. Service was great. Our server made sure we were sat and drinks in hand l. I noticed she was sitting tables, supporting the bar and running food.
Appetizer was the best thing. It came out really dark though probably time to change their oil.
Mustard sauce for the app was neon yellow.
Pizza was a margarita, massive chunks of roasted garlic. Sauce was not very flavorful, crust was very floury. Maybe they hope the giant roasted garlic hide the no flavor pizza.
Pasta dish wasn’t very flavorful, chicken was hard seared. Prosciutto was rubbery. Sauce had very little flavor. Large fried sage leaves within the pasta. Very odd way of adding a sage flavor to a sauce. Maybe they had the same idea with the sage like the garlic on the pizza. Hide giant sage leaves to bite into and cover your pallets with sage flavor.
Espresso cheesecake was decent. Front of the cake was left in the center of the cake round. Lazily drizzled with more chocolate sauce and dusted with cocoa. Hello 80s!
Maybe come for the drinks and service. If you come for a foodie experience stay away. Chefs are unimpressive. Or are too lazy to train their teams on proper techniques or are very impressed with lazy food.

The restaurant itself is a vibe, love the ambiance and what they are going for in there. Sadly we went on a night where it wasn’t crowded and we waited nearly 10 mins before someone greeted my wife and I and sat us (there was no one ahead of us and several tables available). Our serve was very solid and did a good job of getting us everything we needed promptly. The food and drinks themselves were okay. The Ben E bread is essentially just cheese break and the Chicken Salti lacked flavor, however the Salmon cake sliders were incredible- you guys knocked those out of the park.

We made reservations for 6 on a Thursday evening. Walked in and were sat immediately, the restaurant was almost empty. The server never gave us her name and that was ok, she did her job and nothing more. Food and drink came out quick and correct with no extra banter with our server. Food came out quick and hot!! We had fried zucchini and cheese bread to start, both very good and half off for happy hour! My Mother in law had The Italian Apple salad and added Salmon, she LOVED IT! My fiance and I shared the Spicy pizza and the Chicken Salti both very good! My daughter did a kids meal which was plenty of food! It was my birthday so we had tiramisu for dessert which was good but the star of dessert was their banana bread old fashioned! It was such a well balanced dessert cocktail. Overall we enjoyed our experience and will definitely be going back!

Friendly service and tasty food. The margherita pizza was good (needed just a dash of salt) as well as the Plum Tomato Spaghetti. The restaurant was be a little loud (it was full on a Friday night) and outdoor seating is available. I will definitely be going back!
Second visit was also very enjoyable with attentive wait-staff. The Salmon Rissoles were very tasty and the Ricotta Hush Puppies (slight lemon flavor) were good. The Chicken Salti, Roasted Porcetta, and Chicken Cavatappi were all very tasty.

Entering this establishment you get an very motor city Italian vibe with good natural light during the day. The server was great was very friendly and knowledgeable on the menu and check in to offer water and give updates regularly. The food was decent with some being well done like the Benedict and others being mediocre like the ravioli,

Came here for drinks and sat at the bar.
So we ordered no food, this review is purely based on the bar.
The selection was great and the bartender was amazing. Good drinks and fast service. Amazingly personable and fun. Everything you want in a good bartender.
The joint is really cool looking and I love the Italian motorsport memorabilia. Especially those Ducatis.

First time visit. I was confused on wether it was a bar or Italian restaurant as concrete floors, and large bar. Server was polite and did make an error but recovery was nice as he offered dessert complimentary. Pizza was good and my guests enjoyed their pastas. Would I be back? Really nothing to draw me back.

Love this local italian restaurant ♥️This is our regular spot for their antipasto salad, you cannot compete with their vinaigrette dressing. We ordered the stuffed potato skins ans bolognese on special that day. All delicious!

Stopped in one day as we were shopping in the area, wanted to eat and had been curious about Zeolis. We ordered a pizza,burger, cheesecake and salmon. The cheesecake was the highlight and the others were just ok. I think this is a good sports bar type place for drinks and food with friends while watching a game. It will do well and is in a popular part of Clawson
