The staff, including bouncers, bartenders, and servers, are generally friendly and attentive, ensuring a welcoming atmosphere. The food menu is diverse, with standout dishes like tender fried chicken and flavorful mac and cheese, complemented by a great drink selection. However, the music selection and DJ's attitude can sometimes detract from the overall experience.

I went to this bar on may 30. It was around 2:30am when me and my friends were there. At first the vibes were good, The bouncers/security were super sweet & welcoming, Also the bartenders were amazing (even though it was after 2am but they still served us water and kept the good vibes going). But it went downhill when me and my friends were wondering when they were gonna play music we could sing along and dance to. (the dj was just playing techno instrumental) I went up to the dj and asked if he took requests, he had an annoyed look on his face and told me no (i respected that). but i wanted to know if he was going to play music we could sing along to, and he asked in a condescending voice "have you ever been to a club before? you’re being rude". I feel that was an over reaction to me asking two simple questions. The dj was giving egotistical energy which is a red flag in my opinion. I expected more welcoming energy at a gay bar.
The Eagle is a super welcoming fried chicken place! The host was friendly and escorted us immediately to a nice window table…even though they weren’t officially open for another 10 minutes! Our server, Ann was lovely and helpful. Dan the manager checked on our happiness. Thumbs 👍 up because our order was ready quickly! Fried chicken is tender and moist…spicy honey 🍯 is the best. Free pop refills….food was delicious. Great drink menu too. Hope, another staff member gave us dessert location tips for the neighborhood. Highly recommended if you’re on Woodward Ave. near the Detroit Symphony Orchestra Hall.
I ate at The Eagle in a Friday night. The service was great from the beginning to the end. Our server Jordan(was very knowledgeable of the entire menu and made many suggestions. I ordered the old fashion and it was great. All of our food options were great. The manager Travis personally came over to check on us. We will definitely be back. The chicken is amazing.
went here before a concert and it was amazing!! our food was fantastic, especially for the price. the mac and cheese is probably the best i’ve had at a restaurant! we also loved our drinks and the sandwiches were great. our server was so friendly and helpful, and the bartender was super fun as well!! would highly recommend if you are in the area!!
Very welcoming spot, great food, and our bar tender/server Tiffany was fantastic. I got the BLT sandwich and it was delicious, good Mac n cheese and chicken. Great bourbon selection! We also loved that the pimento dip came with a sleeve of Ritz!
The chicken is too soft and lacking any crisp. Decent seasoning but just too soft. The "sweet potato casserole" aren’t sweet potato at all they are yams which are two completely different colors, textures and tastes. It also has onions in it! The Mac& cheese came to The table cold and it was very lackluster . The only good item was the corn bread and even that had husks at the bottom
My bf and I wanted fried chicken so I choose this new place. We made a reservation but didn’t actually need one. It was not crowded on a Friday night but the did just open a week ago. Everything was really good. Tee our server did a excellent job. I ordered the horseradish mashed potatoes & fried chicken. My guy had chicken and Mac and cheese. The sides are shareable & I hate sharing 🤣🤣. While dining my mashed potatoes got cold & didn’t they replace them and took them off my bill. How cool was that! I will be back because in my opinion they are wayyyyyy better than Gus fried chicken on any day.💯 Please don’t come for me because I SAIS WHAT I SAID!😬🤣
