D'bo's Daiquiris, Wings & Seafood

We had a party of 9. Everything was amazing! The food and the drinks were perfect. I had the chicken tenders and waffles. Amazing. This place was busy busy. They were booked to capacity. I recommend making a reservation. Glad I did. Only issue we had was the food didn't all come out at once. A couple of our people had to wait 10/15 minutes for their food to come. But all in all it is a nice restaurant. I'll definitely be back!

Service was great and the food was better than we anticipated. The catfish was on point and the season fries were great. Nice little spot to grab a bite to eat. Beware of those Daiquiri though they are a little strong BUT very flavorful. The hennessy one was amazing!

I went here March 1st with my partner. The restaurant hostess was so nonchalant & moved slow. We stood at the door just looking at her and its like she didn’t realize we were there. Like 2 mins later i said party of 2! She said “follow me”, there was no greeting. She then took us to a dirty table where we had to wait for it to be wiped down. She then said “i’ll find you a server”. I was annoyed my her performance or work ethic. If we didn’t have such a great waitress; this would’ve been 2 stars or less. Our waitress Breezy was awesome. She was nice, she seemed happy, and she kept checking in on us. Breezy, answered all of my questions. It was my first time here. She was patient with my indecisive partner lol. I had to flag her down though when i was ready to pay. And the place wasn’t full or that busy. It was cold in the restaurant and they seat us by a window in winter in Michigan lol. I didn’t like that i ate with my coat on! The food was good to me but the menu is pretty basic. They food also took a while to come out. Like 30mins or so. The tenders were not breaded as much as i would like. It was really light. The sauce was nice. I love a good salad and the Cobb salad was everything! I don’t like that they put the chicken on the side lol. But i mixed it well with the dressing and added it. I feel like that should be an option not an automatic thing! The coogi sweater daiquiri was a good recommendation from my waiter Breezy. I shared it with my partner because i was already cold and the drink didn’t make it no better. They need to have the temperature up in the winter. I used the womens room and the toilet looked terrible. They need to replace the toilet seats. And it was some type of water or liquid on the floor. With a slight sewer smell. My partner didn’t like that his beef Philly cheesesteak sandwich didn’t automatically come with a side. I thought it was weird also. It was such a big basket with a smaller sandwich in side. The music definitely could’ve been better. It seemed like it was controlled on someones phone. Vibes kept changing. There was no DJ on a Friday at 6-6:30p. But, I’ll be back to try again in hotter weather. Especially for that cobb salad lol.

The place was packed, but the service was excellent. Walked in seated waitress took order food delivered fast. Fish was flaky and seasoned good .

This is my second time coming here and I highly recommend! The food is excellent, atmosphere was chill, I went at noon this time, the first time I went at 2pm and it was packed, and the environment was a lil loud, but not obnoxious. I didn’t have a wait, on that time, but I recommend if you are a group of 3 or more make a reservation. Both times I went by myself. Definitely will return!

I'm from Memphis, born and raised, and grew up eating D'bo's. I was really excited to see one opened here in Detroit, and I was hoping the same flavors and vibe were transported north. Mane, I can say, without a doubt, that the food was equivalent, if not better, than what I get back in Memphis. I brought my cousin to this location to celebrate his birthday, and we were all 200% satisfied with our meal. We ordered the Family Meal with 25 whole wings and five flavors, fries, mixed vegetables, and 4 garlic parmesan rolls. We added on the shrimp bowl, which had about 20+ shrimp, potatoes, corn on the cob, and sausage. We also had daiquiri's and a gallon of lemonade that came with the family meal. Everything we had was on point and very flavorful. We are already planning a return visit within the next week or so. Thanks for transplanting D'bo's from Memphis to Detroit. You got a customer in me, as long as the quality stays the same and the vibe of the restaurant remains crunk, 🤣. I also want to shout out Brianna, the hostess, for taking care of us with the reservation. She had great customer service and did an excellent job communicating wait times and when we could expect to be seated. Thank you again for your assistance!

Really cool spot with a live DJ and delicious brunch. I had the shrimp, grits with a side of waffles. Hubby had the salmon croquettes, grits and a small order of whole wings. I had two mimosa's, one peach and one pineapple. The peach overall was the best, pineapple tasted very sour! Grits came with cheese which was a plus because I didn't request it. The shrimp was very delicious! His salmon croquettes looked burnt on the outside but moist and good on the inside. He got his wings plain because breaded fried was not an option. We just used hot sauce and they were fine. Overall, nice place and I hope to come back again. Not sure how I feel about a DJ and TV playing all while trying to hear my server and chat with my hubby. With gratuity our bill came to $96 and that price didn't match the ambience.

Went there for the Mobetta Brunch on Sunday. In all, you have to go. Food was delicious and came out fast. Music just added to the atmosphere. Customer service was phenomenal. For brunch, I got the shrimp and grits with a side of catfish and a waffle. I got the pear cocktail to add on. I wanted and raved the whole day about the meal.

Went back for sat cinema, brunch to support a friend and celebrate my cousin birthday 4/13! They messed up my cobb salad. They forgot the egg and gave less chicken this time! I had to request ranch because it came out without dressing and silverware. The catfish is amazing. Seasoned to perfection & fresh! The bathroom still needs new toilet seats in the ladies room & it leaks! The trivia is fun!

It's always important to me to patronize small businesses, to share my experiences with others, and to Yelp about them. I decided to finally stop by D'bos which was close, but out of my way going home from shopping. Unfortunately, I was unimpressed and disappointed that I didn't spend my money and calories elsewhere. I entered the eatery, which was really quite busy. I stood at the counter and informed the employees that it was my first visit. They were very friendly, welcomed me, and explained that I could scan the QR code for the menu. I've been fasting and was dying for a cheat meal. I ordered a slaw dog, potatoes, and a "game changer" daiquiri. The drink was tasty with peach and mango flavors. The potatoes were delicious as well. You can't go wrong with new potatoes slathered in seasoning and butter. However, I was turned off that the container was ill-fitting and butter leaked all over the bag. The major disappointment was the sausage. Alone (plain), it was good, but not what I ordered. There was nothing on it; just a plain sausage on a torn toasted bun. I don't live close enough to go back for a correction. I'll just take the loss and probably won't go back or refer anyone. I wish the owner the best.

This experience this time was terrible, I will not be back, we didn't receive silverware and waited at least 10 minutes after our food arrived so the food became cold while we waited. The service awful and gratuity was included, we saw our server once, I ordered a drink never received it. The food wasn't good at all. This is experience was nothing like my last one.

I have lowered my rating only because the staff added an additional $5 to my bill and my 2 friends that were with me. Tip is included in the bill however as I was checking my bank statement yesterday I noticed an additional $5. Thankfully I still had my receipt which clearly showed no additional tip. On an $88 bill, with $17 included tip, the bartender/watress added an additional $15 in tips to herself. The service was not worth over $30 in tip! Although the food was good I won't be back based on this alone.

Food - 6/10. I ordered 5 whole wings w/honey hot sauce. Initially, I wanted the sauce on the side, but was advised not to order them dry because they are NOT seasoned. I don't know who needs to read this, but SAUCE IS NOT SEASONING!!! Service - 3/10. Menus were not well maintained. They were falling apart. Our server changed before we could order food and we weren't given a heads up. Took forever for our order to be taken and for any other thing we needed beyond that. Servers were kind enough, but not particularly accommodating. Ambiance - 6/10. Depending on the vibe you want, it was OK. Live DJ was a nice touch, but the music was waaaay too loud.

There are certain establishments that I root for. This happens to be one of them. I've visited D'bo's multiple times, but I have waited to provide a review until I got the true essence of the place. I think I have it now. For me, prompt service is not part of the culture. Maybe the multiple TV screens placed on the wall and ambiance of the R&B music are expected to keep patrons entertained. It's possible. In fact, if I wasn't so hungry, I'd be delighted. But for now, I'll continue to wait. (waiting... waiting...) Welp! After sitting for 25 minutes, a pleasant young lady came over to take my order. The waitress returned quickly with my daiquiri. However, the colorful drink is typically pretty tasty with a good amount of alcohol. Today, the alcohol seemed somewhat lacking. My bar food (wings and fries) arrived at a reasonable time, but it was nothing special about them. I could have ordered specialty fries with special seasoning. I love fries so didn't want to risk it. The waitress mentioned that D'bo's has special seasoning, but recommended that I get it on the side. I did. I now understand why she recommended that. Overall, the establishment could be decent, but it depends on its targeted customer base. For me, with the mediocrity of the food, the flimsiness of the napkins, the delay in service, and the placement of an ATM in the establishment, I can only give it three stars today. I will visit again. Maybe during my next visit, I can give it can give it the five stars that I so desire.

Nice, friendly neighborhood establishment. Service was prompt and efficient. Selection of food was somewhat limited, but what was done, was done well. Modest ambiance, but about what would be expected. All in all, a nice local restaurant.

I've always wanted to try the place so when I finally arrived I was excited. I ordered a daiquiri flight. They switch out the flavors often, the only two remember was liquid Thc and a peach one. The daiquiris alone were very very good AND strong. To go daiquiris are an option as well. I sat at the bar when I came so the service was average she didn't take to long to get my orders or whatever. When you walk in they have a little carry out area where you can order to go food then there is a big bar and another room in the back. I got a simple order of chicken and fries. The chicken was okay it wasn't the flavor I expected I said I'll give benefit of the doubt and try another flavor. The fries were good and different, they put ramen noodle seasoning on the fries which is a twist but actually pretty good

After much hype and multiple attempts, we were successful at gaining entry and scoring a table here. Our server was Connie. She was very pleasant and attentive. She took time to explain the variety of New Orleans-styled daiquiris. We each ordered a flight of the most popular ones: Liquid Marijuana, Margarita, Maui Wowie and Jungle Juice. We each ordered the Lobster Platter which consists of (1) 5-6 oz Lobster Tail, (1) Corn on the Cob, and Andouille Sausage. The presentation of it left little to desired. The food was delivered strewn all over the tray (it was delivered as pictured in the photo accompanying my review). The lobster tail appeared to be about half the amount indicated when cooked. For seafood to be featured as part of the name of the restaurant, there wasn't a wide variety of it offered. There also weren't any seasonings/sauces available. The location is on the corner of a strip mall so parking isn't always available. The restaurant itself is very small and the crowd that it draws can't be properly accommodated. The drinks and service were what garnered the three stars in my review as both were outstanding.

Went here for a going away party and we had a good time. I had the daiquiri flight and it was solid. My wings were good and fresh. I usually don't do spicy but I liked the hot honey wings. Will definitely go back and check out more items I had wings and scampi. It was busy while we were there and the service was still good I don't have complaints with the service and you never know when restaurants are busy. The Ambiance was good it felt like a bar and grill but in a good way, I will go back for sure with my Hubby next time. The only thing I wish they had was more sides or at least different sides because I would've liked other options.

Restaurant has low lighting but is full of windows so the sun shines through. Everyone in your party has to be present to be seated. Our server was Anansia. Anansia took our orders and answered any questions we had. It's very loud so you're practically yelling at one another. Everyone enjoyed their meals. Everything was delicious and appealing to the eye. The wings had great flavor but could have been fried a little longer. I plan on putting together a ladies brunch because it's a nice vibe at D'bo's.

Place was BOMB!! I was visiting from California for my grandmothers funeral and I WISH THERE WAS A LLACE LOKE THIS OUT HERE. I ordered the wing and catfish combo with fried Okra and it was good. Food was very well seasoned. They had a DJ playing good music and it was trivia night. The food took a little bit of time, however I attest that it seemed made to order. The next time I am visiting the area I will be sure to come here again.

Tequila Rita! Strongest on the menu said our waitress and baybeee-it is. Even came with an additional surprise shot glass of slurpee! Give it a go if you need a "stiff" one. Tenders were quite chewy but good flavor. Can't really explain it, but I wasn't too pleased with them. Okra is scrumptious and fresh. Now, in the vibe was laid back on a Friday early evening with 90s music and not too crowded. Free parking. No cover. Probably would give it another go and order something different. Hope this is helpful.

Had a chance to check them out on a Saturday for brunch. The food was ok. Had the salmon croquettes and grits with a waffle on the side. The grits definitely need more work. Bland but were edible. The ambiance was fun as a movie trivia game started not long after arriving. The service was very good.

So I wanted brunch so I got here when they opened. Unfortunately they only sell brunch on Saturday and Sunday. I got here around 11:05 and they opened at 11... so I was the only one here when I got here. It was nice to enjoy the whole place to myself until others came in about a half hour. The vibe is nice and it's a real chill atmosphere. There are TVs around the bar that plays ESPN so that's always a good thing for a sports junkie like me lol. So since I couldn't order brunch I ordered the shrimp and catfish basket. It came with 10 shrimp (not fried), and 3 catfish filets. In on a carb diet so I chose not to get the fries and got the celery and carrots as my side. The food was hot, came out fast, and very good. I also ordered the Margarita flight which comes with 4 drinks. The flavors I chose were blue raspberry, mango, margarita and liquid Marijuana. The drinks will give you a good buzz if you drink all 4. My server was Crystal and she was really nice, helpful, and did such a great job. She made sure I didn't need anything and checked on me periodically. This will be one of my favorite places to visit for the future and I'll be back for the brunch next time! Make sure you check this place out!!!

Friendly and accommodating staff. I ordered the flight of daiquiris which is a nice option to try different daiquiri flavors. They were a little too sweet for me, but the patrons around me appeared to enjoy them. I also ordered wings which were freshly cooked, and the Asian sauce was good. I would visit again, maybe for their Sunday brunch.

First time coming here and also being in Detroit and the food was very tasty. Daiquiris were strong like I like it and flavorful. They were kind of slow on getting the food out to us but overall 8/10.

This was a great place to stop in. The mixed reviews made me stop in for drinks only. I loved the variety, atmosphere and service. The have amazing specials and all the food I witnessed come out looked great. I love Catfish so hearing they use swai made me leery. I'd give it a try and order Wings as well. I'd definitely come back and try more menu items. I highly recommend this place and plan to check out their locations in other cities as well.

Went here for my Sorority's founders day! I wasn't expecting the overwhelming amount of people that showed up but the entire parking lot to the back was packed. Even with all of the commotion considered, service was pretty fast! I tried the hot honey boneless wings with the lemon pepper fries and I did a flight of the daiquiris. The daiquiris are made STRONG I definitely left with MORE than a buzz! They reminded me of Fat Tuesdays. The hot honey sauce wasn't the best it tasted more like buffalo with a hint of sweetness than what I am used to eating. The fries were delicious and a good balance of real lemon peppery flavor. The steamed vegetables gave Walmart frozen section, I probably wouldn't get those again. Regardless, I would love to try this place again on a regular night vs during an event and hopefully try another flight of flavors.

Mia was great - service was good. No salads on the menu were actually available. Daiquiris were tasty, but the fried fish was way too salty, shrimp was drowned in butter and the music was too loud to dine and converse with friends. But if you want loud music and club atmosphere, check it out!

Went for bunch and the service was excellent our waitress had a few tables and still delivered excellent service. The decor was nice with black and ref accents. I had two margaritas with my meal and they were delicious! Of course i will be back

I'm going to keep it short and sweet, there's nothing to see here. We got in and got out of here. I ordered the shrimp platter, and let's just say, I wouldn't order it again. The food was FLAVORLESS but the service was okay. The space is small, it gives me a sports bar vibe. Dbo's wouldn't be my first choice... but I wouldn't be opposed to coming back. This place is something to do when there's nothing to do.

The garlic parm wings were over cooked and very small and greasy. The lemon martini drink was good. Our waitress was nice and very busy. The ambiance was good we were there from about 5-7pm. Overall I wish the food was better. That is all.

The food was just ok, for me especially seeing a though the sides outshined the chicken. I had honey bbq wings and they were decent my sis got another flavor and was mad because she said they tasted unseasoned. We both ordered an amaretto sour drink and the drinks were good. But the ambiance was horrific. It was super loud like a club, complete with a dj stationed in front of the bathrooms. At one point it was both surreal and hilarious to look around and see people either yelling in each others faces to be heard or looking resigned to just scroll through their phones and eat. We actually communicated by text at some point because it was THAT damn loud. Also, they had security at the door checking for weapons and that's just crazy to me. The security guards apprised me that they have major issues with people coming in with guns and threatening violence. We should've left then. And let me tell you, The ladies bathroom had a toilet seat that looked like it was dragged behind a truck and then slapped in the stall. The booth was not clean when we sat down and this wasn't even on a Friday, Saturday or Sunday people. The parking is ok because it's in a strip mall but it is NOT well lit. To top everything off when we left the security guards were off to the side of the door smoking weed. Nice way to keep things secure. Classy. Bottom line if you want to try this place, I suggest perhaps take out.

This is a new spot that opened up about two months ago in Southfield in a previous Leo's Coney Island location. This a franchise business and I believe it is black owned. I went on a Saturday afternoon around 3pm and it was a hour wait for a table for two. I waited because I really wanted to try it since following them on social media. This location is not big, they have a bar in the center and tables on the outer part. They offer a variety of daiquiris that were pretty good that can be ordered for to go also. The food is wings, burgers, shrimp and few other things even though the name says seafood it really was not a huge option for that. The service and food overall was good but not good enough that I would go back simply because it felt more like being in a bar/club than a restaurant. Majority of the customers seemed to be young adults in their 20's. It was really hard to enjoy seating because all of the people standing surrounding the bar area drinking, so we had people dumping into our table. Overall the food was good not great, the drinks and service was good. It was really loud and busy, they allowed people to stand in the dorrway which made entering and exiting a struggle. Parking was tough because it is within a small strip mall.

My girls and I had a mid week dinner out and absolutely loved it! Our waitress was bomb, food was amazing and drinks were delicious! Our food was cooked exactly how we requested. We asked for wings, catfish and okra to be friend hard. The wings were full of flavor and cooked perfect. The shrimp was boiled in garlic butter oh baby oh!! The okra was crunchy on outside soft in middle. The garlic parm fries were tasty too. Fave daiquiri was the orange and red one. Real fruity tasting the classic was delicious too. Cool atmosphere, chill and laid back. We will definitely go back. Oh prices were reasonable too.

This place is pretty solid. It's always busy in here. i haven't tried their brunch just yet but the food I have tried is really good. I get their seafood bowl, not sure what its called but I attached a picture. And I love their daiquiris. My favorite one is the liquid marijuana!

The time here. The Lobster Platter is awesome. Will definitely be back! Black owned establishment!!!!

This place was suggested for a meet up. We had reservations at 11:00, they open at 11:00. Originally 8 were to meet, only 4 showed. Therefore they wouldn't seat us. We had to convince them that the others were out of town, etc. We finally were allowed to be seated after 30 min.of waiting in an empty establishment. They had a D.J. which was fine, but we couldn't hear ourselves think or talk over the very loud party music on a Sunday morning. We asked them to turn it down, eventually they did, but it wasn't conducive for our meetup. So I don't know what the food taste like. But the initial or first impression, I give it a thumbs down . So we went to Beans & Cornbread, where we had a wonderful experience!

This is my second time coming here and this will definitely be my last time. When we was seated we had to wait awhile for our waiter which took a good 25-30. Waited 30 minutes to finally be asked for our drinks and food. When the food arrive my food was cold and I ordered the lobster and shrimp platter when our waiter took it back and then brought it back out the shrimp and sausage was over. And then they have the nerve to add gratituy and the service was horrible. Never again I felt like I wasted my money.

I went for brunch one of the first football Sundays, the vibes are amazing! The food is delicious, two lemon drops got me more than right. I wish the brunch menu was a little more extended and had more options. I had salmon bites and caesar salad. The host was super cute and sweet. I don't think anyone had to wait more than 5 minutes to be seated. I can't wait to go on a girls night.

First time here, and it's on a Sunday and it was a vibe! DJ Fame was spinning and set the tone for brunch. The Catfish & Cheesy Grits were really good, along with the mixed daiquiri and the Bourbon bread pudding! However, I would stay away from the eggs. Overall, I would definitely be back for brunch! Ask for Stephanie! She gave great recommendations and was really nice!

Great environment! Went to comedy night and the lady was hilarious! Wings were delicious and burger looked fabulous! We will definitely be going back for an after work outing.

My brunch was DeeLicious! Chicken was the best golden fried and delicately seasoned I've had in a while (just wish it came with four pieces for each waffle The frozen margaritas were good too especially the Mango my favorite.

The ambiance is nice, the DJ was on point. But the food and service were terrible. We ordered wings and catfish...waited about 30 minutes for our food then the waitress comes out to tell us they were out of the flavor we ordered. Wait another 20 minutes to get our food. The food was COLD drenched in some salty sauce (I asked the waitress to give me whatever flavor they had that was a dry rub) and not well done. The catfish is not real catfish and they charge $8 for all flats on a 10 piece order. I probably would go back but only for a quick drink and music. The wings were disgusting.

"Good food, Good drinks (and strong), Great vibe but a little pricey. I will return very soon. I got the lemon pepper wings and that sauce is to die for!!!

Now listen that flight had me flying it was a 8/10 I might recommend Sike you guys should really try it just don't do what I did. For food I got the catfish and fries and that's fried hard ya know !! Overall it was it 8.5/10

Service is pretty fast. We went for Brunch. Brunch had a limited menu definitely not traditional. I liked it, my husband who loves omelets didn't there are no omelets on the menu. Mimosas are 10.00 each which I thought was a little much considering its Cooks Champagne. My grits were great and so were my potatoes. Atmosphere was top tier loved the artwork and the DJ. We'll try again for dinner.

I wanted to sit at the bar and check this place out, but it was too crowded. Denny's is probably very good, but I won't know because I'm not going to wait around for that and however I did add this place to my list of restaurants, I might check out in the future I don't really like the crowd though that's a problem for me.

My husband and I visited during Memorial Day weekend while in the area to see family. We mainly went for the frozen daiquiris and was disappointed when there were only 2 flavors we could choose from. The ones we were able to try were good and you can tell they didn't skimp on the liquor. At first our waitress wasn't very attentive, it took her almost 30 minutes to come over and take our drink orders. Their service improved as the visit went on. My husband ordered the catfish and I ordered wings. Both were good but my wings were very small luckily I only wanted a snack because otherwise I would've left hungry. I would give this place another chance if we're in the area again. Hopefully the next time more flavors will be available.

Good food service is slow but worth the wait. My shrimp Po Boy had a little too much salt which was sad because the sandwich otherwise was taste but I couldn't eat the whole thing. Great atmosphere good music

Great attentive service. sat at bar, bartender very nice, kept checking on me & my mom. Drinks were goooood! Food was ok. Lots of salt! We will return!

Food took over an hour to come to me. Chicken wasn't cooked all of the way and catfish was shit. Fries were soggy and they forgot to bring me my order I made to go. They refunded me only half of my money back for my to go order. Worst restaurant I've ever been to. I would NEVER recommend this restaurant to anybody I know. Disgusting!!!

Omg my family I had the best experience at this Restaurant everything was so amazing our server Ari is absolutely the BEST very patient new the menu and made our experience that much better I will most definitely be back !!!

I give this place one star because a lot of the employees were very nice... my experience was all bad. I rented a room for $80. It said it would hold 35 people but only 16, I was told it would be happy hour prices and we would have a karaoke after three times for asking for the karaoke. They brought a dusty karaoke, and that they had to work on it for 30 minutes to even get it to work some of my Gas had already left, I will never ever go back to this place again

We can't comment on the food. Myself and 2 friends came in today. We were treated badly from the start. The hostess was rude. Once we were seated no one ever came over to us. We sat chatting for about 15 mins other tables were sat and waited on. The male server knew we were there but kept helping all tables around us. When we finally got up and left the hostess said smartly have a nice day knowing how we were treated.

Went recently with my fiancé, the drinks where pretty good, food was decent. The service was not the best, keep looking for the waiter. The place had a day club vibe, the music was okay until the DJ came in. Audio quality needs to be fixed.

Chicken was nasty and cold. Banana pudding is so full of artificial flavoring and sugar it was inedible. Fries were soggy, cold, and soaked in grease. No sauces to go with the chicken or food unless you want just ketchup. They deliver the food in a Jeep in cheap bags so it makes you wonder if the food is even safe at that point. I threw my food away after 2-3 bites. The guys also wore white surgical gloves on one hand when handling the cooked food so I wonder how their practices are in general. I will not try their food ever again. I'd rather eat McDonald's.

First time there...Good food, good drinks, and nice atmosphere!! The bartender Sierra was super busy but still checked on me to make sure everything was right. Definitely will be back...Only downside is the small slaw that I had as a side, but who eats slaw anyway besides me
