Restaurants around Wayne State University?

Question

I go to class every night at the Prentis Building on Wayne State's campus (around Woodward and Warren) and I need a recommendation on where to eat dinner somewhere within walking distance of the Student Center preferably... any good, non-fast food, not La Pita Fresh places around there?

Answer 1

I went to WSU some time ago and if it is still there, I would recommend Epicurian (or Epicurus - can't remember) Place on Warren Avenue. It's Greek food, decent and not expensive. It's certainly better than the Tubby's, Wendy's and other fast-food places scattered down Warren or Woodward.

It's on W. Warren between Cass and Woodward.

Good luck!

Answer 2

Try Union Street (about 4 blocks S of campus on Woodward) . They also have great food and an excellent bar.

3rd Street Saloon had great burger when I was at WSU (on 3rd Street South of Warren though I am not sure if it is still open).

Honest John's Bar on Cass (bar food)

Also try the Traffic Jam & Snug (South of Campus) near Cass & Canfield.

If you can go beyond walking distance, there is a good Thai place in Eastern Market on Russell Street (Sali Thai..not sure on spelling) also around the corner from there on Erskin & Riopelle is the Roma Cafe (solid Italian food)....further down Russell in the centel part of the Market is Bert's Place (great jazz and good food).

Answer 3

I can't believe no one said cass cafe yet. It's on cass and forest. Some good vegi food and very cool atmosphere. good place to get a beer after class as well.

3rd street saloon is now closed.

the majestic cafe on woodward has some good good too.

and that link above that someone posted should be www.metrotimes.com

Answer 4

Town Pump is a very nice place. The food and drinks are very good. If you like italian i recomend trying Marios. Its expensive, but it is well worth it.
