Archie's Tavern

Came at lunch time, and I was in and out. No complaints about my meal. It was very straight forward. The sweet potato waffle fries were some of the biggest I’d ever seen. ($2 up charge) My server was friendly & had a smile on her face while she kept it moving for the lunch crowd. I’ll probably go back for the swift and friendly service with reasonable prices for reasonable portions.

Food was overall really good. The Mahi Mahi tacos were possibly the best I've had. They had a great flavor and a slightly spicy sauce. The fish and chips were also amazing. The house salad was good, but I was wishing for a little shredded cheese or bacon bits. The French onion soup was reported to be good, but not the best. The staff was excellent, very friendly and attentive. I'm looking forward to coming back to try the salmon.

You have to check this place out!!!! Excellent spinach and artichoke dip, chicken sandwich, and my date loved the turkey Reuben sandwich. He said the turkey was so fresh and so good. He also loved the onion rings.. the chicken noodle soup was also such a perfect side, which they serve with a basket of bread and crackers. I got their spring mule to drink and it was so delicious that I got another one. Great environment with friendly staff and delicious food. Will totally be back. Try it out, you won’t regret it.

Just moved back to the area and Archie’s has given me a local place to feel comfortable. Whether I want a cocktail or lunch with my Mom, Archie’s always feels like the right place to go. Great food, cheerful and welcoming staff. Sometimes you want to go where everyone knows your name:) Try Archie’s. Special shoutout to Eric! He’s the kind of server who does everything well and makes you feel like a friend at the same time!

Got takeout on Valentines day and it was only a 10 minute wait. Food was ready immediately when we got there. Everything was hot when we got back. We got the perch and fish and chips. Both were delicious and the fish and chips were the best I have ever had. All the sides were delicious and its seriously some of the best food I have ever had. I could eat here everyday.

The most amazing tasty food I have ever tried !!! I’ve been coming here for a while now and everything is delicious! Top tier ! This is the first time I ordered Rattlesnake pasta and it exquisite!

Our server Amanda was excellent! We had a larger group of 9 and she handled us all so well, with me being the difficult one, as I’m celiac. She offered many recommendations that she knew would be safe for me, making me feel completely at ease with my meal. Salmon was excellent, all the food was delicious. We’ll be back!

Stopped by Archie’s Tavern on a busy Saturday night and had a great experience. The food was really good and came out fresh and promptly. The staff was very welcoming and accommodating, especially with our two-year-old. Our waitress was friendly and attentive as well. We’ll definitely be back. Thank you!!

My wife and I were looking for dinner the night before Christmas. We were both craving a big salad and Archie's menu seemed to have some good options. We live not far, so we decided to give them a go. When we arrived we were greeted right away and offered a table by the front window. Our waitress was quick to bring drinks and take Our orders. My wife ordered a Cajun chicken and avocado salad. I ordered the Cobb salad with extra chicken breast. These salads did not disappoint and they did not skimp on the chicken. The restaurant was clean and inviting. All of the staff were friendly and prompt. The prices were very fair and portions were spot on. We will definitely be back soon.

went here with my grandkids for dinner one nite and was quite pleased with all aspects of our dining experience except for one area. The Smoke House burger and Mushroom Swiss burgers were quite large (two hander 1/2 lb burger) , well made and quite tasty. The accompanying fries were equally tasty with a nice crunchy texture. The two younger grandkids ordered off the kids menu where both got the grilled cheese and fries. They ended eating everything on their plate, which is a 50 50 proposition on most outings so they were equally pleased and grandpa was as well! Lastly I ordered a House Margarita on the rocks that was well made and quite tasty in its own right albeit a tad light on the tequila per my calibrated palate (: The one downside and reason for me not giving 5 stars is the service. Though friendly, it was very slow with no follow up during the meal. I had a strong desire to get a second Margarita but just couldn't get the order in. We actually had a hard time even getting our bill and when you are sitting at a table with some figety kids you really dont want to be sitting around waiting on your bill. Not sure if this is an ongoing issue with this business as I saw no evidence of it in the excellent reviews this business is getting. Probably our bad luck to get a server who was just not up to par. Service aside, we really enjoyed the food and enjoyed watching the live sports that were on the many TV's strategically placed around the bar/restaurant and definately would eat here again the next time we are in this area.

The staff is very friendly and upbeat. The place is clean and kept up. I like they have trivia nights on Friday's. We have ordered the tuna melt, saganaki, fish and chips and the Rueben. Their tuna melt is so big and so fresh and flavorful. The Saganaki Opa is done table side and it is so gooey and great with their Greek bread that they give you in the bread basket. The fish and chips is so crispy and flaky and the pieces are big. The tartar sauce is ok especially with when everything else has so much flavor but not so much the tartar sauce. The turban a huge and they crust the bread and the layers of meat and Sauerkraut are caramelized inside. I highly recommend. Will need to go through the menu and order more things to try out.

Amazing service. My family and I used to go there almost every weekend, and it was always a great experience. Recently, my brother and his friends went and also had a super positive visit. This place definitely deserves a 5-star review; Sorry it took me so long to leave one!

Food was great! Fresh ingredients. Service, friendly and quick. Full, yet you can still have a normal conversation. Clean and comfortable. Will come back next time we are on this side of the state.

Oral surgery, ugh. Dentist limited me to warm-ish soups and yogurt for a week. On day three I had a craving for onion soup and Archie's was the closest. It is damn good onion soup. I ordered it for two more days more days. Carry-out order was ready almost instantly. Although I ordered carry-out, the ambiance of Archie's was positive and I will return.

This place surprised me. Basic setting when you walk in. Replacing the grand tavern. Archies seem to be a good option. Service is nice and very attentive. I went with the Mahi tacos. It came with a soup which I went with French onion. They hooked this soup up better than no other. It was very good. The Mahi tacos were a first for me and they were okay. But they were lacking something. So who I went with got a burger that came with some type of garlic sauce. She didn't want it. So I added that to my Mahi tacos and that was a GAME changers. These tacos became very good after that. I would strongly urge y'all to try it. Maybe add it to the menu. The chicken tenders were fresh & hot. Not hand battered not home made but okay. Lemon meringue pie to top of the dinner was tasty and exactly what I expected. Overall so far a good place to eat. This place is a hit. I forgot to mention. They do have sagnaki (opa! cheese). While I didn't get none. I appreciate seeing and hearing the opa! Whenever someone got some so that's a plus.

Courtney was our server. Didn't wait too long for drinks. Place was bustling on Saturday night. We had pretzel jalapenos dip excellent. Cheese burger excellent. The best chicken kabobs ever. Plus. Rueben with chips very good. Service was excellent. Prices fine. Only draw back was I had a flat labatts light and my wife's Moscow mule was weak. Otherwise it was a great night. Going back for sure.

Surprisingly good place for being in a mall. Appetizers were excellent. We especially enjoyed the spinach artichoke dip. You can get sandwiches or full meals. We went as a family of 4. Couldn't finish the pork chops or nachos. Great desserts that you "could" eat by yourself - but we shared. Has tables as well as bar seating. Many TVs. It was nearly full when we were there - yet the service was attentive and with a smile.

Great food with a great atmosphere. Server Alyssa was friendly and informative about the menu. Service and food were definitely the best parts!!

My family lives in Livonia, so when I visit- Archie's is the place that we used to visit in their old location on Plymouth Rd. Imagine my delight when I find out it has moved to this new location in the Laurel Park Mall replacing what used to be the Grand Tavern as it's much closer to my mom's house. While it's nice in the inside- sort of a sports bar feel, most of my orders these days are for take out, and they surprised me with how efficient they are with this aspect of their business. The order has been right every time I have ordered, nothing is forgotten and even the sauces and changeouts are correct. They make it easy as the food is prepared and bagged so that you can pick it up at the hostess stand, or on slower nights at the bar. I like to come early and have a drink while I wait but they are usually SO fast that I never get to finish my drink! The menu is huge so everyone in the family can get what they want- and just like the old Archies- soup or salad is included in many meals which makes this very economical. My mom loves their turkey dinner while I'm a sucker for their patty melt but no matter what I order- the food is hot, tasty and ready to go. Love that their new location is close and more upscale than their their last location, but the food is just as good as I remember it!

I don't usually give casual sports bars a 5 star review but Archie's exceeded my expectations beyond my wildest dreams! Knowing what the old Archie's was like and how Grand Tavern was like, I was not expecting a 5 star sports bar. First of all, the Wings were MUCH better than when it was Grand Tavern. I was amazed. Keeping Darya behind the bar was another excellent decision. She reminded me that she's the epitome of a professional behind the bar. Archie's should be extremely fortunate to have her. The place also was cleaned and well maintained. It is a welcoming atmosphere. I highly recommend giving this place a try.

The owner is very nice and knows how to run a business, food is very delicious and right on time. Convenient seating arrangements for larger parties.

Entrees usually prepared with a well done complement of veggies. Not typical of bistro food.

Archie's Tavern is the former Grand Tavern connected to Laurel Park Mall. If you are from Livonia, you probably remember Archie's on Plymouth Road, which was a Livonia institution for family dining for many years and a favorite of senior citizens. I believe Archie's Tavern is the same ownership as the former Archie's. However, Archie's Tavern is not your grandma's Archie's. It is a typical sports bar complete with TVs, a full bar, and a few beers on tap. This was my first visit since the change in ownership and I came with a group of friends. Food Quality: 4/5 To be fair, I only ordered a simple burger and fries. The fries were hot and crispy and the burger was pretty average but about what you might expect. 1/2lb of beef and fresh produce on a toasted bun. I'm kinda a burger snob and I would suspect this was a frozen patty. Not bad, but not memorable either. My friends ordered chicken wings which were tossed in sauce. They looked pretty good. Overall, I think most people could find something they would enjoy on the menu. The fish and chips were a top seller at the former Archie's and I saw them on this menu as well. That would be what I would get next time. Service: 4/5 Our server worked at the former Archie's for over 20 years. She was polite and efficient, but still learning the new menu. I'm confident service will be consistently good here. Ambiance: 5/5 No complaints here. The interior decor is much nicer than the former Archie's. It looks like any other modern sports bar. Cleanliness: 5/5 Our table was clean and the restroom was clean during the dinner rush. Value: 2/5 The menu prices seemed a little higher than average for comparable quality food. $13.50 for a burger with fries + $7.50 for an IPA on tap. After tax and tip, you're looking at ~$27. Again, not outrageous, but most menu items seemed kinda high for what they are. Overall: I hadn't been in Laurel Park Mall in years, and after walking around, it felt like a dying mall with many vacancies and mall walkers, but few shoppers or reasons to visit. I'm curious why Archie's decided to make this move. I'm rooting for Archie's Tavern and hope they have many successful years in this location. There is a lot of competition in the area and other places like HopCat, Granite City, and BJ's that offer a larger beer selection and similar offerings. I don't want to say it, but my gut tells me they will struggle (especially with rising minimum wage and food costs) unless they can find a way to differentiate themselves and find a way to offer value.

Archie's Tavern is a gem. The service was outstanding--friendly, attentive, and genuinely welcoming from start to finish. The food was just as impressive: fresh, flavorful, and clearly made with care. You can tell they take pride in both their kitchen and their customers. No surprise why they've had such a storied history in Livonia for decades now.

Everyone was pleasant as we waited or latecomers so we could place or orders. Eventually, we got that done and enjoyed our food, which was delicious and enjoyed the clean conditions of the place. We plan to return soon.

This is a tough one. Great effort by the team that brought this place to life in a dying mall. It was great to see they had a good crowd on Saturday night. The problem is the menu is so bland and uninteresting. The food is as well I've found. I had the Chicken Stir fry and it looked great but was completely tasteless. The Chef is letting down the rest of the staff.

We followed Archie's from their original response Plymouth road to the new one in Laurel Park Mall. Nice restaurant inside with tables and large booths - big screen TVs for sports - We love their Fish & Chips - always arriving at our table hot. Lots of food selections. George is the Best!

Worst burger I've ever had. Burger was undercooked and tasted like the beef was old. It had a faint smell. Can't understand why the place was busy.

1st time here dining with an old friend. Perfect food perfect service and perfect waitress Alexa. No complaints whatsoever nice quiet clean place. Lots of parking.

Love this place! Food and service is phenomenal since it switched from Grand Tavern! The buffalo chicken dip is the bomb.

I had the best burger I've had in years. I cant wait to go to the restaurant again. The margaritas are pretty darn good too.

We recently ate here on a Saturday night after seeing a movie nearby. Having dined at their previous location, I thought I knew what to expect. Boy was I wrong. We arrived at approximately 8:45, the restaurant is open until 10:00. The Fried Seafood Platter sounded good, so I gave it a try. It included Cod, Perch and Shrimp, sides were fries and I upgraded to a French Onion soup. First mistake, deep fried croutons in soup, greasy and gross. Entree arrived, looked good, but clearly the fish was just dumped from the fryer onto the fries, they were swimming in grease. And I mean swimming. The acoustics in there are terrible, very loud, even though we were towards the rear of the restaurant. It was also freezing cold, and I'm not one to complain about being cold. Normally I would have just sent the food back and spoken to a manager, but we were over it at that point. I won't be going back there.

Went tonight with friends. No wait on a Saturday!!! We all enjoyed Soups of the day- chicken noodle and minestrone , both very good. Fish and Chips THE BEST!!! Our friends ordered chicken Florentine and stuffed cabbage- both were enjoyed. All large portions. REALLY appreciate the great service Ray gave us. Highly recommend Archie's Tavern and we will be back

Food was great. Service was great. Archie's has been a staple in Livonia for over 30+years. So happy they moved into Laurel Park mall. The best Fish & Chips you will find, and the chicken Florentine on Saturdays is amazing. Always start out with the saganaki or Flaming Cheese and have George Light it at your table OPA!!!!

Definitely would return - the salmon was delicious. And they make a good manhattan as well!

Good- probably will come back. The burger was good - Swiss mushroom burger. Service was good- drinks came quickly, food was good, waiter was attentive.

One of the best Patty Melts I have had. Fries were good too. Good service as well. I'd like to see a few more IPA choices though

Been here several times and food is average but not horrible. Ambiance and service is always excellent. Great location if you are staying at the Marriott and would recommend eating here vs hotel.

We had group of six people for lunch and service and food was great! Very friendly wait staff and refilling drinks before anyone needed to ask. Sandwiches and fries and salads all fresh and very tasty! Sweet potato fries were big favorite for our group. Highly recommend!

Our club went to Archie's Tavern for Dinner on St. Patrick's Day, the food & the Service were GREAT and the Wait Staff were really AMAZING we had a huge group and everyone received their food, drinks, and service promptly. We will DEFINITELY be back! Even one of the owners, who was there, greeted us all, very nice!

Visited Archie's Tavern for the first time for fish fry Friday and was really impressed! I had previously gone to their location on Plymouth road for breakfast for years and always felt the service and food were good. The owner certainly took everything up a level for this new location. Had the fish n chips with a cup of the French Onion soup to start. The soup was extremely flavorful and the croutons really made it for me. Could have used more cheese, but everything else about it was great. The fish was perfect. It was battered to perfection. Crispy, not over battered, and seasoned well. The cod was flakey and tender. Of all of the fried fish I've had in Livonia, I find it hard to suggest a better place. The fries were hot and crispy, complimented the fish really well. Also, the tartar sauce was homemade and really good. Service was excellent. We never waited for anything and our server was very attentive. All this while the dinner rush was really getting going. Will certainly be back and glad to see another local Livonia business seems to be thriving in a very busy area!

Food was great, service was awesome, a lot of TVs people were friendly , good music and it was fast. Recommend everyone to go

Had dinner at this new place. My sister and I had the Lamb chops . They were amazing tender seasoned perfectly. Reminded me of the old restaurant in Greek town years ago. French onion soup also very good. The service was great our waitress Amanda was super . Restaurant was very nice. Want a great night out with yummy food great service I give this one 5+ stars..you won't be sorry .

Great restaurant and even better people working there. Archie's Tavern should be your destination for high quality food and a great atmosphere. If you want to be a regular at a restaurant I would choose this one, the staff will remember you and prices are not overpriced.

great service, quiet atmosphere. fair prices. we had a party of 4. 2 had the fish and chips, 2 had the broasted chicken. fantastic meals. (best broasted chicken i've ever had!!!) great prosecco drink too. can't wait to go back and maybe try other menu options. would definitely recommend.

This was my first time eating at the new Archie's and I did not have a good first impression. My wife was there before and had fish and chips and liked them so she ordered them again. I ordered the smokehouse burger with fries. It was around 7:00 pm on December 14th, so it was busy but we were immediately seated. My wife got a cosmo, but the martini glass was only 2/3 full, maybe some of it spilled out during the delivery, but she said it was good. It took a while for the food to be delivered but her fish and chips came out hot, but not my burger. It was barely warm and must have been sitting on the dish for some time as the bottom bun was completely soaked in its juices and the fries were cold. I know it was sitting around either because of a mix up on the order or they really screwed up the timing. I asked for and got new fresh fries but should have sent everything back. It was VERY disappointing and may not go back. They must have known they messed up the order but still served my crappy meal.

Everything was great. Nice ambiance, service was good considering I sat at the bar and the bartender had at least 4 others she was waiting on besides me plus the server's bar drinks. I ordered the fish n chips and added a bowl of french onion soup to my order for only $1 more! I can honestly say I think their fish n chips were the best I had in my entire life and I order fish n chips frequently literally everywhere lol. They were hot fresh out of the grease, fries were also hot and fresh out of the grease. Also, nice big portion. I think a full grown man wouldn't finish that whole plate. The French onion was good but not the best I ever had. It tasted a tad salty in my honest opinion. I'd def come back. Also thought for the portion, the food was very reasonably priced.

I have eaten here many times and it's always delicious! Tried the new rattlesnake pasta which was pretty good. Everyone is friendly and Michael always checks on you to make sure everything is to Your liking,which is something more owners need to do! Great job all around!

It's close to home and my wife and I thought we'd try it since it's recently changed to Archie's Tavern. The service was good, but the food was mediocre, at best. French onion soup was warm & the cheese was barely melted. Ordered fish and chips, both of which were slightly undercooked. It wasn't awful but there are plenty of nearby bars with better bar food.

Very good food! Great menu and decor. Management and staff checked back a couple times each. Would recommend.

Unbelievable food & service tells you why bar Louie shut down next to them. I am blown away. It's incredible the atmosphere is more upscale bar. Great prices! Respectful owner/manager. Might be the best food I have ever had. I'm stunned I do not know what else to say.

This restaurant is a very nice addition to Laurel Park Mall. Friendly management and staff. Very clean. Diverse menu. Very good food. I would recommend giving a try.

Good service and the food was great, sat at the bar, so I did not experience the restaurant. Both bartenders were super nice.

Very good food, great service, great environment! Definitely check them out. The owner is very personable. ​​

Great for families and good food. Very patient with large groups. It was hot so AC was great. Good tapped beers

Food was very good but service started out very good but towards the end we needed to get our server for refills on drinks and it took a while when we were done to get our check given to us AND to get it back.

We recently went to Archie's for dinner and had their wonderful fish and chips. They are some of the best ever. Also their salads are very tasty. Will definitely return.
