"In southwest Detroit I found Green Dot Stables serving Motor City tradition in slider form: the standout Coney Dog Slider comes with venison chili, mustard, and onions on a mini bun, alongside corned beef, falafel, and gyro sliders and a rotating “Mystery Meat” that has ranged from wild boar to camel; owner Jacques Driscoll says he opened the spot in 2011 to keep everything small and affordable, the menu even uses local lingo (“pop” not soda), and the building’s horse-racing past is still celebrated at Derby Day parties." - Wendy Pramik
"When you are in the mood for variety, Green Dot Stables is the place to go. They offer an amazing selection of sliders from Tempeh, Catfish to Lamb. Always check the board for their Mystery Meat special. Best of all, everything on the menu is $2-$3, including cocktails!" - Michelle & Chris Gerard
"Mix and match multiple mini burgers like the Kentucky-inspired Hot Brown with grilled chicken, bacon, and Mornay sauce or the classic cheeseburger with Velveeta. The Mystery Meat, otherwise known as the spot’s rotating specials menu, is a must for adventure seekers. Past offerings have included kangaroo burgers, salmon, wild boar, elk sausage, and even shark. Online ordering is available. Best for: By some miracle, Green Do’s pricing system seems to be immune to inflation, which is great for fans who love filling up on $4 sliders. Cocktails are appropriately also under $5." - Danny Palumbo
"The whole concept behind Green Dot Stables is to offer diners a variety of sliders, fries, and drinks for just a little dough. Burgers are available in beef, chicken, and veggie form and range between $2.85 and $4.50 a piece. Loaded fries, salads, soups, and other sides start at $2.95, while beers go for as low as $2.85." - Danny Palumbo
"Combine a gourmet version of White Castle with your favorite horse-themed dive bar and you get Green Dot Stables. This downtown tavern serves more than 20 types of sliders, including a Cuban, gyro, and a daily “mystery meat,” which could be anything from fried lobster to cauliflower. It’s a casual spot to eat some tiny burgers, have a few $3 drinks, and be glad that the bar you imagined your grandpa secretly placed race bets at still exists." - sara barron, sam faye
