Location

Welcome to **They Say Restaurant**, a vibrant addition to Detroit’s culinary scene located at 267 Jos Campau St. As a food reviewer for Res Menu, I am thrilled to share my experience at this charming establishment that perfectly melds New American cuisine with a casual yet engaging atmosphere.

At They Say Restaurant, you can expect to explore an eclectic menu that places a delightful emphasis on chicken wings, while also showcasing a variety of other mouthwatering dishes. The restaurant not only caters to chicken lovers but also serves many vegetarian options, ensuring there’s something for everyone in your group, including the kids!

  • Cajun Fettuccine Alfredo: This signature dish features housemade Cajun Alfredo sauce over fettuccine noodles, topped with Parmesan cheese, served with a buttery dinner roll. It was a creamy embrace for the palate!
  • Fried Catfish: Crunchy and golden, the two pieces of catfish filets paired with fries and coleslaw were a nod to Southern cooking that was simply irresistible.
  • Grilled Salmon: The 8 oz chargrilled salmon can be customized with blackened spice or sweet chili sauce, offering a perfect balance for seafood aficionados.

To satisfy your sweet tooth, you can’t miss out on their heavenly carrot cake and the indulgent chocolate cake, both guaranteed to leave a lasting impression.

As a casual dining spot, They Say Restaurant is not just about the food; it’s also designed for comfort and convenience. With amenities like reservations, delivery, and takeout, plus outdoor seating for those beautiful Detroit evenings, you can enjoy your meal your way.
