Door to knock at 1 O' clock: Olympic Grill, Warren Ave., Detroit

Located in the midtown area of Detroit amidst the Wayne State University campus, Olympic grill is one of my favorite diners. This places buzzes with people especially students all day and that implies that prices are gonna be reasonable. The buzz reaches its peak during lunch time. You can see people waiting to get tables. The restaurant has an amazing hustle-bustle ambiance. This is typical of university diners. I hit this joint atleast 50 times a year. 
The best part of the restaurant is the staff and the menu. The staff are super-friendly and the service is prompt. You go there a couple of times, they would probably remember your favorites. I don't use menu card anymore in that restaurant.  I know what they have and they know what I want. It is a typical American diner and has huge selection of  appetizers, entrees and desserts. My favorite part is the Omlette section. Yes, they have a section just for omlettes. You don't find this in many restaurants. 
My favorite of the favorite is the veggie omlette. It is just not my favorite, but also to many of my friends who are generally extremely carnivorous. The chef packs this gigantic succulent three-egg megatron with a garden of veggies like onions, tomatoes, mushrooms, green peppers, broccoli sauteed to form a perfect blend of flavors honed to perfection with melted cheddar cheese. I customize it with swiss cheese. The taste is out of the world. Every bite tastes like a piece of heaven going down the food pipe. This dish is also served with your choice of toast and hash browns. The hash browns served is one of the best I have ever had. Perfectly seared on the pan to give a nice brown & crisp texture on one side and a soft texture on the other side, these potato grates melt in your mouth as you chow down. Olympic Grill also offers amazing stir-fry combinations. 
If you ever come to Detroit, never leave Detroit without trying this restaurant. If you are in Detroit and if you have never tried this restaurant, you better get your bottom to this place as soon as you can. Please post comments about your own experiences in this midtown buzzer.

  2. Customizing your omelette with Swiss cheese and the part where you mentioned about the "carnivorous" thing are my fav parts. Good luck on blogging!

    Fries n endless coffee @ Olympic grill are my favos as a sort-of-vegan-like person. (The veggie egg omelette is definitely worth even looking at it ;)).
