Detroit 75 Kitchen

Detroit 75 Kitchen in Madison Heights absolutely lived up to the hype! The portions were huge — definitely come hungry. I went with the garlic cilantro fries, and wow… they are hands down the best fries I’ve had in a long time. Perfectly crispy, loaded with flavor, and totally addictive. The strawberry lemonade was another highlight — super refreshing and just the right balance of sweet and tart. Honestly, the hardest part of the visit was deciding what to order. But it’s the kind of place where you know, no matter what you pick, it’s going to be amazing. That’s the kind of decision-making I enjoy! What makes me love Detroit 75 even more is what’s behind the food. I follow the owner on TikTok, and I really admire his philosophy: keeping staff happy, paying them well, and choosing not to open on weekends so they can have that time off. That kind of respect for employees says a lot about a business. We get it, and we respect it — standing ovation from me! 🙃 I can’t wait to go back and try more from the menu. If you haven’t been yet, you’re missing out!

After delivering several door dash orders from here the enticing smells and rave reviews from my customers I knew I had to try Detroit 75. Whoa! Delicious isn’t a good enough descriptive! Seafood Empanadas were filled with seafood and bursting with flavor. Garlic fries? Chefs 💋. I practically licked the container clean. Fresh lemonade was excellent as well.

I ordered the corktown bbq beef sandwich, garlic cilantro fries and the strawberry lemonade. The strawberry lemonade was good, as one would expect fresh strawberry lemonade to be. The fries were really tasty and one of a kind. The sandwich was incredible, with all the different flavors and textures blending perfectly.

I visited the new location in Madison heights and I like that it’s easy access and less traffic compared to the old location by the mall. I got the fish and chips with catfish and garlic cilantro fries, fish was seasoned well and crispy but a little spicy. I got the strawberry lemonade because I remember it being good last time, paid $7 for a large which resembles a medium and I was highly disappointed, the lemons must have gone sour and tasted rancid, not enjoyable at all and it seems thicker than the original recipe. I traveled a good 35 minutes in construction to visit so I didn’t expect to be let down by the quality of the drink.

They have the most crave-able cheesesteak! Shaved beef, cheese, mushrooms, onions, jalapeño peppers topped with tomato, lettuce, mayo, and they serve it with a vinaigrette that takes it over the top. I also like ordering a side order of shrimp with remoulade sauce. I’ve tried the catfish sandwich, fried chicken, Atwater chicken sandwich, seafood empanadas and lastly the garlic cilantro fries - which the fries are amazing with the jalapeño ketchup. They make a fresh strawberry lemonade that is fantastic. It’s consistently good food. Update (Jun 2025): they moved to a new location but same great food and service. Shout out to Ali for being so friendly and helpful with ordering. We did the cheesesteak that comes with a new sauce on side, the garlic fries; side shrimp and lemonade.

Basic food honestly. I follow the owner on IG and i am from Ohio… always wanted to try the food because it “looks” bomb but i am disappointed. Fries are not crispy and the atwater sub and philly cheessteak is ehh not a burst of flavor as i expected.

Fish and chips were amazing 5/5 Chicken tenders were a bit disappointing 3/5 (the meat was too chewy and tough to eat) But I love the atmosphere and service so I will still come back here to try different foods!

Can’t wait for the actual restaurant to open but the food was incredible. Probably the best thing I’ve had recently. We split the cheesesteak and an order of Cajun fries and it was so good. I want to try the spicy shawarma next time.

This here is my favorite food truck period. Detroit 75 Kitchen is one of those vendors that gets a lot of attention from social media. Many places like this are all hype and no substance, but I can tell you with much confidence this is not the case here. One major reason for their success is their small menu, which prioritizes quality ingredients and generous portions over having a large selection to choose from. This is very important, because it means that the food is consistently fresh and delicious. My Cheesesteak sandwich was absolutely phenomenal, packed with juicy and well seasoned strips of beef along with crunchy vegetables. The whole thing comes perfectly together with the vinaigrette that is quite liberal. But the genius aspect of this sandwich is the thick and crispy bread that withstands all the moisture inside, keeping it from falling apart. The garlic cilantro fries also have to be some of the best fried potatoes I've ever had, and one order of those can easily feed 2 people by itself. The location and lack of weekend hours can be a little bit off-putting to some customers, but when you do finally get a chance to eat here it's worth overlooking the shortcomings. All this is possible due to the passion and love owner chef Mike puts into his food. He loves what he does, cares about his staff and that trickles down to the menu items themselves.

This is the ultimate lunch spot with the best subs. My favorites are the shrimp po'boy and the cheesesteak. The bbq chicken egg rolls are also a must! They are so flavorful and crispy. You can tell they use high quality ingredients. When I went they did not have any outdoor or indoor dining areas open. This was a bit annoying and so we just ate in the car. I'd recommend calling in your order ahead if time because there is typically a bit of a wait.

Visited Detroit 75 for lunch. Waiter at the counter was nice snd offered suggestions. Restaurant is interesting because it's still a food truck, you order at the counter inside, and then need to go outside to get your food. It's in the old Sears garage, which gives it a very cool location. I'll add that because it lacks real doors, and just has plastic type doors, it's very chilly Food is very good, servings was very large. Will return again for sure.

WHOOOOAAAA! for a food truck, THIS PLACE IS A HIT! The flavors are absolutely amazing! You wont be disappointed here! Well, unless your sad that they can't follow you home lol!

Excellent food! Highly recommend. We went to the one on Stephenson hwy. Definitely plan to go there again

Amazing fish and chips, service was fast and expedited. Place could use better lighting in parking lot. Ambiance is nice

Stopped by Detroit 75 kitchen in Troy during a trip to Michigan and wow what a great scene! Great indoor and outdoor setup with plenty of room and great music playing outside. Service was also fast and pleasant. Food wise, I got the 3rd St. Detroit Cheesesteak with garlic cilantro fries and Corktown BBQ beef, All I can say is WOW... both sandwiches were delicious, I personally loved the BBQ beef, and the garlic cilantro fries were some of the best loaded friend I've ever had.. everything was fresh as could be and perfectly seasoned. I would definitely come back on my next trip to Troy!

I was so curious to try this new place in Troy but I'm a bit disappointed! Ordered " Large" perch with shrimps and came with garlic cilantro fries. Well .... Paid 6.5$ for 9 shrimps ( supposed to be 10) , the perch is more like a baby perch not a large and i barely had fries on the bottom of the box . Totally Paid 33$ with the tip for this order and for the amount of food is very expensive I saw few comments here about how big the portions are .... I presume was a joke The shrimp taste very good , the perch was ok but nothing wow , and the fries are very thin cut and I had the bed luck to got them just warm I'll try to order one more time something different and that will be decisive for me if I'll return again or not ( I like to give a second chance to everyone lol)

We finally got around to trying this food truck located at the old Sears Auto at Oakland Mall. Interesting reuse of this space! It was a gorgeous day so we were happy to sit at a sunny picnic table. Great music and friendly staff. I ordered the shrimp po boy. It was pretty good -- fresh, hot and filled to the max with ingredients. We spilt the egg rolls, which I was super excited to try. I thought they were just okay -- I was hoping they'd be crisper and the filling wasn't anything exciting. I ate half of one and left the rest for my husband to eat. His cheesesteak sandwich was not as filled as mine - looked nothing like the amazing photo on the menu. Overall, it was just okay for me. Glad we tried it but I won't rush back.

Great new spot opened in the old Sears garage at Oakland Mall. Great vibe to go with food truck they have. Great amount of seating area with ample parking. Ordered the "Corktown BBQ Beef". The Tender Beef, sweet pickled jalapeños, crispy fried onions and combination of bbq sauces was amazing. NOTE: the sandwich is huge and can be shared. Ordered the garlic cilantro fries on the side. Delicious paired with there Amazing signature roasted jalapeño ketchup. Highly recommend trying this place.

Great food. This location (Troy) is in the garage part of the old Sears Automotive Service at Oakland Mall (at the East or, John R end). You go inside, if you haven't already done so, you download the menu using the QR code, place your order at the counter and wait. They text you when it's ready and you go outside to the food truck and pick up your order. They also do online orders and you can place your order, park in the parking lot right near the truck, wait for the text and your all set. You can go back inside and eat or take it home (or eat in your car!). It's cold in the old garage, so keep that in mind. We got the 3rd Street (Detroit) Cheesesteak and the Corktown BBQ beef with a large Garlic Cilantro Fries. Everything was delicious! The meat was tender, the bread was outstanding and all around great flavors. They're not open on weekends but hey, their reason is that they all want to have a life. When you make good food you can do that! Service was very polite, prices are a decent value as well. Give them a try.

I had the Detroit style cheesesteak and garlic fries . My third time I think having that and can't get enough . I like the crunchiness of the bread, the ingredients and the tastiness of the steak itself . And the garlic. Fires with the jalapeño ketchup was great also and recommend. And a strawberry lemonade to wash it down .

The food was great. I think this is more of a takeout style food spot rather than actually dining in as they don't have an actual room for eating. The food was great though, I enjoyed everything I had especially the fries.

For all the hype, and relatively high price for what you get, I was rather underwhelmed. The couple of items that I got were large enough that the quantity was not a problem, but the taste was lacking. All the additional sauces you could get really didn't help much and were unremarkable. I waited for almost 20 minutes to get my food when it was not busy at all. Be prepared to be kinda disappointed with your meal because your expectations were too high. Also, they don't have a free source of water. If this was only a remote food truck I could understand, but they are attached to a brick and mortar location for seating and ordering that they could put a water cooler in easily. Will not be going back.

Great SANDWHICHES and garlic fries. My personal favorite is the bbq SANDWHICH as their bbq sauce worked well with the meat and pickled veggies. Everything on their menu looks great though

It's an exciting place near Oakland Mall. Technically, it's a food truck, but they created a dining area around it. You order and pay at the counter, and they text you when your order is ready. Most people seem to order online already and have it to go. The dining area itself is spacious and clean. It's quite an open space, so it's best for warmer days. The portion is enormous, but all the food is served in to-go boxes; thus, packing home leftovers is easy. For a sandwich, they're really delicious. I've tried the Fisher Fwy. Fish and Atwater St. Chicken. Generous and fresh fillings both times and I love how saucy the sandwiches are (but not to the point they got soggy). Well seasoned. Surprisingly, to me, one of the best parts is the bread, especially the sesame roll. It's so crispy on the outside but fluffy and chewy on the inside. It's a very filling meal, but I enjoyed it every time. The prices may be more expensive than other sandwiches, but it's worth it since it feels like a gourmet sandwich.

Don't think, just order! I'd order on their site to skip the line, they were so busy when I got there but I got a text 15 min later and it was ready, the portions are extremely generous, Jalapeño ketchup is the truth! get the garlic cilantro fries & strawberry lemonade for sure. The over all environment was very neat and clean, haven't ate this good for this low$ and fast in a while, can't wait to come back!

The MOST perfect fries you will ever get your hands on. Go & get you the Atwater chicken sando or the shrimp po boy because those are the favorites. Don't sleep on their strawberry lemonade either , it's top tier! The service is always surprisingly fast considering how busy this place can get! Thank you detroit 75 kitchen!

what was with these little french fries bits The bread on my steak sandwich tasted like it was stale and toasted. i'm sorry I did not enjoy this meal at all.

Goog food,great service,garage design w/lunch trucks that do the cooking.The 1st time is a learning experience,how & what to order,where you pick-up your order,the 2nd time you know the ropes and how you get the menu.I remcommend the cheese steak and the fish sandwich served only on Friday.My wife likes the shrimp pooboy ,you gotta try this place.

Would say for all the videos Mike does on social media n pushing his signature Fires if you look you know false advertising on this order but what the heck cant bat 1000% if the training at the Troy location isn't top notch, n his response was will look into it gee Christopher , unacceptable and I want you to come in and receive 2 free orders of our SIGNATURE FRIES on Mike n Ahmad oh DIDNT happen

The guy Jeff who has reposted a review multiple times should not even be taken into consideration. He gives a poor review of a business because he shows up after hours. Even if there isn't a sign - the place was closed. Yelp reviews are based on food, ambiance and service. When you show up to a place after they've closed then the 3 points cannot be applied because you were inconsiderate of other peoples time. It's disgusting how adamant you are about posting a poor review on this small business that clearly you have never tried. Your post should be removed by yelp again since ur not following the guidelines.

We loved the chicken wings and the shrimp poboy. I always place my order for pick up.

My friends and I decided to meet for lunch because it was a beautiful day. Luckily we arrived right before the lunch rush, which seems to start around 12:30pm. You order inside the building and pick up your food from the food truck when they call your name. The strawberry lemonade is delicious. You can taste fresh strawberry and it's not too sweet. Service was fast and friendly. We chose a table in the outdoor area (there are a few tables inside as well). The empanadas were not good to my group. They lacked flavor and the filling didn't seem to actually have a lot of meat. I wouldn't order those again. The Atwater chicken sandwich was good. It also could have used a little more seasoning but the portion is big and the bread is a mix of crunchy and soft. The fries were good but even better with the roasted jalapeño ketchup. Overall it was ok but not something I would drive out of my way to get.

Service is great. The ambiance is great. And the Food is great... outside of the fact that every single time i go (in which I've been over 10x) the fries are always cold like yesterdays fries no matter what time of the day it is the fries are never fresh other wise this place would 5 stars And yes I still go despite paying for cold food it's still delicious.. try for yourself

me and my brother went to the detroit location years ago and loved it, so we were so excited that there's one so much closer now. love the overall layout was nice chill vibes so that you can order quickly and take a seat to enjoy the nice weather. seating area is nice and has plenty of picnic-bench type of seating. the food was so yum. i ordered the atwater chicken sandwich and loved it - great chicken to lettuce to sauce ratio. very tasty and hod an array of flavors. my brother got the corktown BBQ burger and also really liked it, said it was really flavorful and liked the bread. the woman helping us today was SO SWEET and gave us great reccs and tips. you have to get the strawberry lemonade, AMAZING!

This place is beyond delicious. We were happy to hear they opened a location closer to us! I love the unique flavors and twists on beloved American food. The ketchup is something else here. They need to commercialize it like Chick-fil-a sauce.

They open at 10am, I got there at 10:05. I was told it'd be 30-45 minutes til they were ready. I had to leave because I didn't have time for that. Why advertise that they open at a certain time only to have customers wait nearly an hour. Clearly they got there late and didn't bother to have the kitchen equipment up and running. Super lame experience

Food is good, the wait my previous two visits was long, especially considering it was mid afternoon after the rush. I like a cold drink so the ability to get ice and a cup with my soda is preferred instead of just the can. I'd pre-order online for sure in the future.

You pick up your food at the food truck, but you ordered your food and you can sit down and eat inside of a old Sears auto center. French fries are not that great but the shrimp Poboy is really good and the chicken sandwich has an acquired taste. You either gonna hate it or love it.

Overall 9/10 Sandwich 9/10 Customer service 8/10 Fry 8/10 Sauce 10 Great place Food took about 10 minutes to come out so fairly fast

11/10. A must try. The BBQ egg rolls are a must and all their sandwiches are a hit. Their homemade sauces are what make it great and it's always fresh and warm right when they hand it to you. Staff is super kind and it's a family run restaurant. MUST try the homemade lemonade, probably best lemonade I have ever had from anywhere. Quick grab.

First time at Detroit 75 Kitchen. Placed order on-line. and advised order would be ready in 30 minutes. We waited the allotted time (with no text received order is ready). Pick up is confusing as some people picked up at the food truck and others were directed inside. We received our food, which was cold, so clearly it was ready way before the 30 minute mark. Chicken tenders were good, basic chicken tenders. I was hoping from the photo they were going to be hand breaded, but they were not. The fries although cold were delicious. I'm sure hot they would be amazing. Will try again and next time hopefully the food will be hot!

On social media this place looks really good. The food looks amazing and the atmosphere seems pretty poppin. In reality, it was kind of disappointing. The staff was really off putting and kind of rude to the person in front of me in line. They were out of almost everything on the menu. I didn't get a chance to try anything because of this experience and it was a let down.
