    Ordered a cocktail. Menu said it was $14. I handed the bartender a 20. I received $3 in change. I confirmed the price with the bartender. I explained I'd been shorted. I was told that the price was higher than what was listed on the menu because of "taxes and stuff." I wasn't about to get into it with an overworked bartender over three bucks, but that's nonsense and we both know it. There's no universe in which normal "taxes and stuff" amount to a 20% markup. Don't piss on my leg and tell me it's raining.

    Walked in here while waiting for a reservation. Nice, clean setup. Lighting was dim enough to create a cozy vibe without being overly dark. The bar and booths were nicer than expected for a bar. Grabbed two cocktails while we were waiting. The drinks were okay, but they were made from the tap. Was hoping they would be handmade/hand poured.

    5 star used to be an awesome spot. The food is still ok, but my entire group was made uncomfortable by an all around rude staff who made everything feel like we were not welcome. From the door guy to the Blonde bar tender, all around poor communication skills.

    The interior of this place is real classy. Reminds me of 1920s themed spot a little. Glad they’re back open. And this double burger was delicious and just the right amount of fries. Friendly staff and bright windows makes for a great spot.

    If you're on a quest for pizza perfection, look no further than Five Star Bar. The siren call of their Detroit-style pizza reached my ears, and I raced there faster than you can say "cheese!" Now, let's talk about the stars of the show – the Detroit-style pepperoni and cheese pizza, along with those lemon pepper wings. I can't even find the words to describe how amazing they were. The pizza was like a flavorful masterpiece, with the perfect combination of crispy edges, cheesy goodness, and that signature Detroit-style pan crust. And those lemon pepper wings? Let's just say they were a flavor explosion that left my taste buds in awe. Tangy, zesty, and just the right amount of kick – they had me reaching for more even before I finished the first bite. Needless to say, Five Star Bar has earned its name. The fantastic food, the engaging manager, and the overall welcoming atmosphere make it a place I'm already planning to revisit whenever I'm in the neighborhood. So, if you're in the mood for a taste experience that hits all the right notes, head to Five Star Bar for a slice of pizza paradise. Trust me, you won't be disappointed!

    Decent atmosphere. Love the signage and seemed like a cool place. I’m new to the area and wanted to scout out for a date. The staff was nice, they just made me wait a bit before addressing me. Polite people and they seemed to love their friends and regulars, which hopefully I’ll be able to join down the line. Wasn’t what I was looking for that night so the 3 might be harsh and could easily jump after the next time I stop in.

    Solid happy hour prices on drinks. The food was terrible - over salty and gross. They messed up our bill but fixed it.

    Never again $9 for a beer one single draft beer ! I felt that’s over priced and the bartender was rude. It’s a nice place but I wouldn’t recommend it for anyone. There are better places out there.

    The decor is very unique and the drinks are made with real juices (not mix). The bouncer was super chill and very knowledgeable about all going on in the bar. Very friendly. Great atmosphere!

    Quiet place. Nice attentive staff. Our server, Ellen, was great. Had the Detroit style pizza which was delicious. The beer was cold.

    Best burger I’ve ever had. 10/10 every time. The staff is great and there’s always something good on tv. The music is awesome too with great variety and energy. My go-to place for happy hour as well.

    Came here spontaneously on my birthday with a group of 15. We all really enjoyed ourselves! Drinks were great, interior was cool, and it wasn’t too loud or overly crowded. I’d go back!

    Nice bar with good prices and lovely bartenders. Solid theme decor inside. Perfect for a quick drink or date night

    My first time there. Not huge but a good size. They have booth seating, table & chairs seating, and bar stool seating seating along the big bar. Good drink selection, food is quite tasty, the service is prompt and friendly, overall good ambiance. Had a fun time with my wife and our friends. Will def be going back.

    Haven’t been here since before Covid so made a stop in after the auto show. Disappointed we didn’t realize it is under new ownership. If we hadn’t been there before the change, it would have been fine. I wanted a burger and one of their awesome cocktails but no such luck. Their menu is pretty limited as was the cocktail menu. The cheese curds were decent. The spicy chicken sandwich was good but was really just a buffalo chicken sandwich. The old fashioned was the best part of the meal. The atmosphere was completely different too but not in a good way - nothing interesting or unique.

    5 stars for five star. Glad this opened back up. Great food and staff is very friendly. Anything on the menu is good - but get the Detroit style pizza. Carolina from Lithuania was amazing and so friendly. She was running around taking care of everyone. Highly recommend this place and will be back a lot.
