You’re hungry. You want more than just a sandwich, but you don’t want to wait forever or empty your wallet. That’s when Mack Avenue Grille in Grosse Pointe Woods, Michigan, becomes the best idea you’ve had all day. Here, eating lunch is never boring, always delicious, and totally doable with friends, family, or on a quick solo break.
A Feast for Breakfast Lovers — All Day Long
This spot doesn’t believe in limiting breakfast to just mornings. Feel like a stack of fluffy banana nut pancakes topped with warm pecans and cinnamon? You got it, even in the afternoon. The Belgian waffles come crispy and golden, just waiting for fresh fruit or a scoop of ice cream. Mack Avenue Grille’s omelettes are famous for their cloud-like fluffiness. Try the veggie-packed Detroit omelette or the egg white creation—this one has regulars trying (and failing) to copycat the pillowy texture at home.
Real Food, Big Flavor
It’s hard not to drool at the lunch menu. If your kind of lunch comes between bread, this place serves up Mack Avenue Burgers with juicy 6oz patties, the melt-in-your-mouth Ultimate BLT, and an Ultimate Burger with a fried egg and classic Russian dressing, all with fries on the side. Watch out for the Gringo Burger, which piles on sautéed mushrooms and onions with a blanket of melted Swiss cheese.
Panini lovers, don’t miss the Pesto Chicken Turkey panini loaded with mozzarella, roasted red pepper, and a swipe of herby pesto. The Yacht Club panini comes stuffed with turkey, ham, bacon, avocado, cheddar, and a crisp lettuce crunch. If you want to keep your hands extra clean, wraps like the Mediterranean Chicken are stuffed with marinated chicken, veggies, and a punchy Greek dressing.
Soups That Warm More Than Your Stomach
No one does comforting soup better than Mack Avenue Grille. The chicken lemon rice and chicken noodle soups taste like someone in the kitchen really cares. Upgrade your sandwich or wrap and get a steaming cup or bowl on the side. Try the chili with cheese and onions for a genuine fork-and-spoon meal.
Salads Worth Getting Excited About
Think salads are boring? Not here. Dive into the Chicken Fajita Salad loaded with grilled chicken, tomatoes, and cheddar; the Mack Grille Greek salad brimming with feta and kalamata olives; or the show-stopping Salmon Avocado Salad with greens, cucumbers, mint, and a giant fillet of grilled salmon. Sweet tooth? The Strawberry Chicken Salad tosses in fresh berries, tender chicken, oranges, and walnuts, all tossed in their raspberry vinaigrette.
Dinners That Make You Pause and Savor
Got time for a bigger meal? Mack Avenue Grille hits the spot with roast turkey, savory pork medallions, super-tender veal chops, and classic baked meatloaf. Seafood fans will dig into plates like pan-seared Atlantic cod, shrimp scampi, and the crowd-pleasing Parmesan-crusted whitefish.
Something for Every Taste, Kid and Adult Alike
Kids, adults, vegetarians, picky eaters—everyone will find something to love. Choose veggie burgers or a black bean burger topped with fresh avocado. Carnivores won’t know what to order first (hint: the lamb chops keep folks coming back). Sides like sweet potato fries and onion rings disappear quickly if you’re sharing.
Sip Something Good
Don’t overlook the drinks. Fresh-squeezed orange juice starts your meal right—tangy, refreshing, and pumped with vitamins. Coffee drinkers love the bottomless pots delivered to the table. A full bar means beer, wine, and cocktails are available for your afternoon treat (maybe you’ll order that extra side of fries).
