The 38 Essential Restaurants in Detroit

"When it comes to Detroit sandwiches, few have achieved the legendary status of the Boogaloo Wonderland at Chef Greg’s Soul-N-the Wall: a hoagie topped with loose, griddled ground beef, tangy red sauce, melted American cheese, and caramelized onions. This carryout spot’s signature dish pays tribute to an original recipe at the now-shuttered Brothers Bar-B-Q and to the late “Boogie Wonderland” songwriter Allee Willis, who happened to be a big fan of proprietor Greg Beard’s food. Order through a window in the tiny interior, equipped with a few stools and adorned with a display of the restaurant’s many accolades and famous visitors." - Serena Maria Daniels
