Restaurants

Blue Margarita Mexican Kitchen & Cantina - Blue Margarita is one of the newest and freshest locations to get great Mexican food. The atmosphere here is so fun and new. Everyone we know who has visited this restaurant comes away singing their praises. They've got buckets of mini Coronas, delicious fajitas, and wonderful seafood. Of course it's essential to actually get a blue margarita when you go to this restaurant, and those are delicious too! We highly recommend this great restaurant. Located on Allen Road just south of West Road.

Christoff's Family Dining - Christoff's is an excellent family friendly restaurant that is frequented by all the Woodhaven locals. Delicious breakfasts, lunches, and dinners. If you're bringing kids with you, this is one of the best places to go. They've got coloring books and crayons available for them. The staff here will treat you like family, and on your birthday all you've got to do is show your valid driver's license and your dinner is free. You'll find Christoff's on Allen Road just north of West Road.

Grand Buffet III - If you love Chinese food, you will adore this buffet. Everything is always hot and fresh. They've got an excellent sushi bar too, where you can enjoy the all-you-can-eat rolls that are on the buffet, or order special rolls for yourself via the handy checklist menus (you'll pay for those separately of course). They've got over one hundred and fifty items available daily, from sumptuous Chinese delicacies to American favorites. Mongolian bar too! Located on West Road in the Woodhaven Commons Shopping Center, just east of Allen Road.

Amigo's Mexican Restaurant - There are several Amigo's locations downriver, but the Woodhaven location is our favorite. They've got delicious inexpensive Mexican food, always freshly prepared and served piping hot. You can get great lunch specials for under five bucks. Very comfortable and kid friendly too. Did we mention the delicious chips and salsa? You'll find Amigo's on West Road, west of the onramps to I-75.

Kwan's Chop Suey - This one is carryout only, but it's worth putting up with that to taste their delicious delicacies! Everything is top notch here, from their egg rolls to their almond chicken. We're really hooked on their soups and lo mein dishes too. Everything is always piping hot and with just the right level of spice and heat. We wish this one was a dine in restaurant, but still it rates five stars because you cannot beat the food. Located on West Road, west of the intersection with I-75.

Bars

Blue Margarita Mexican Kitchen & Cantina - We mentioned Blue Margarita in the restaurants above, but it's so great as a bar that we decided to include it here too. The essential that you must try is of course the blue margarita! Delicious and thirst quenching too. They've got happy hour which means half price jumbo blue margaritas and jumbo regular margaritas, $1.50 domestic drafts and $2.50 import drafts, and a bucket of Coronitas is just $8.00. Located on Allen Road just south of West Road.

American Bar & Grill - Located inside the Best Western Hotel. This is possibly the coziest place in Woodhaven to just kick back and enjoy the night. It's family friendly, but they've also got a great bar scene. You can enjoy the fireplace, play billiards, sing karaoke, or watch the TV. You'll find this hotel and bar on West Road right at the intersection with I-75.

Applebee's Neighborhood Grill and Bar - Even if you don't like chain restaurants, you can't deny that the bar at Applebee's has great selections and perfectly priced drinks. The staff at the Woodhaven location is so friendly you'll want to stay for a good long while. And of course if you get hungry while you're throwing back all those great drinks, you're already right there in the middle of a restaurant with excellent food. And you can't beat the prices for that either. Located on Allen Road jut south of West Road.

Marlow's Chill & Grill Sports Bar (in Brownstown) - This honorable mention in Brownstown is close enough to Woodhaven to count! It's just a cozy little sports bar where you can throw back a few beers and watch the game. The prices here are insanely cheap, and the staff is always so welcoming to everyone even if you've never been there before. You will find this great little bar on Telegraph Road just south of West Road.

Drink's Saloon (in Brownstown) - We drove past this place a million times before we finally decided to stop in, and we wish we would have done it sooner! Their burgers are the juiciest that you'll get in Metro Detroit. And they're cheap, and BIG, too! If you love the bars where you get a condiments tray, you do get that here. They've got pool tables and live entertainment on the weekends. You can find this great little hole in the wall on Allen Road south of Sibley.
