The Ideal bite is my home away from home. Amazing food, not just frozen or pre-made, but fresh and delicious. I loved the classes before quarantine and think that there is something there for everyone. One of my favorite places and I wish I could go higher than 5 stars!!!!
Not your typical corner restaurant, so much better. I have enjoyed everything I have had here because it is as close to home made as you can get in a restaurant. I particularly like the vegetable couscous and the apple quinoa salads. They even have a pop-up restaurant in The Palms Building downtown ...
The Rosemary Feta Fries with aioli gets an A+ from me. The customer service and 1-on-1's with Amy and the staff = A++. So glad that Alysia G. cared to introduce me to The Ideal Bite Community Kitchen.
A little expensive for your neighborhood diner but it is delicious.
Eaten here over 5 times and not an issue. Everything is great so far and their in house menu has specials other than the fixed menu on the website. I'm impressed by the level of professionalism, care and most importantly consistency. Absolutely worth the price when the ingredients are fresh and wel...
The food is amazing! It s fresh and delicious. The staff is friendly and welcoming. Make sure to try the desserts, worth every bite! I also love that they are environmentally conscious! We are regular customers.
Very good food with creative sandwiches. All organic products definitely makes a difference
This place was so good! The woman who worked the counter was so kind and told us about how the place opened and their story. The food was amazing and you can tell it s not just frozen or reheated food, it s freshly made. The Mac and cheese was delicious and you get a large portion- I couldn t even f...
Very disorganized. Food came out at all different times. Orders were wrong, overcooked, or missing parts. Ran out of burger patties and said they needed to call the head chef in from home to make more, so couldn't replace mistaken order. Offered other menu item to replace. An effort to make it right...
They have great food and the staff is very helpful and friendly. Half-way through a fantastic apple and brie panini with garlic aoili, the proprietor drops off a round of cupcakes to all of the patrons because we "looked like we'd enjoy them."
So added bonus: apparently the employees can also rea...
Absolutely excellent food and fantastic customer service. The environment was enjoyable and the clerk and chef were kind. One of the best burgers I have ever had and I intend to come again at my earliest convenience!
My boyfriend and I ate here yesterday. The food was amazing! You can taste the quality. Will definitely be back again soon!
I was introduced to Ideal Bites when the cafe at my office building was being renovated. The food was amazing every time, regardless of what I ordered. As a result, I sought out their bricks and mortar location in Farmington. It has become my favorite place for brunch. The Shrimp and Cheese Grit...
Checked them out at the Palmer Building downtown pop up ....the turkey panini is amazing and the cheesy potatoes delicious!
The absolute best local restaurant! Everything is made fresh and from scratch. All of the soups I've had there are amazing. They always come with fresh made croutons. I often crave their bacon tomato panini with their special garlic aioli! The best sandwich hands down. They also have an excellent ...
Great food in a relaxed environment. Owners Matt and Amy Jean have made The Ideal Bite Community Kitchen a wonderful addition to our neighborhood.
Great food, served by people who care: for you as a customer... and the community beyond their walls. Reasonable prices. A real asset for the community, they now recognize us as we enter and greet us warmly... and by name.
Excellent fish and chips! So enjoy a place I can go and get food that accommodates my food sensitivities.
Great food! Great community restaurant and catering service. You won't go wrong with them.
Had lunch with a friend here a little while back, and decided to try this new place. The food was AMAZING, and super decently priced. I was raving to friends and family about this place. Such a nice atmosphere and the staff is friendly. Will definitely be back.
Not only is the quality of food stellar but their customer service is top notch!
I love stopping in to the Ideal Bite to see what goodness they are cooking up. I ordered catering from them for a board meeting and everyone raved how good the food was AND got seconds. So glad to have them in our community.
The food at this place is ridiculously fresh and, oh my goodness good! If you are looking for a good bite of food, give them a try. Their roasted cherry tomatoes on a sandwich are so good. I like it so much, I have been there 4 times since.
Great place for lunch. Varied menu with something for everyone. Everything is made to order with fresh ingredients. It was hard to decide what to get because so many things looked good. They also do take out and catering.
Staff ALWAYS helpful and friendly.
Love the fruit infused water they offer.
Great desserts !!!
I've never been disappointed by Amy Jean and the rest of the team! Such high quality, fresh ingredients and amazing customer service. They are doing curbside pickup and have additional "take and bakes" during shelter-in-place. Unique menu items and creations, don't miss the sweet potato wedges, appl...
Really sweet staff. They go the extra mile to make there own sauces. Food always tastes super fresh and tasty. Haven't tried the baked goods yet but they honestly look too good to try. They even support the community by hosting cooking classes for kids. We are lucky to be so close.
I stopped in just see what it was like and ended up eating a delicious lunch. Staff is incredibly friendly. I will definitely be returning to try more on the menu.
Read about them on Facebook last week and went to try it today- the food was INCREDIBLE! The service was great and the guy at the counter was adorable. Will definitely be back asap
This was my first time ordering from this restaurant. The phone call to place the order and pay for the order went smoothly. During this time of social distancing,after a quick phone call and car description upon arrival, my order was brought to my car.
The food was delicious! The whitefish dinn...
I went to Kroger to grab some lunch but the place looked gross. Decided to give this place a shot instead.
It was good. 100% worth a shot. I had the turkey melt. The turkey was of
Good quality, great bread. They didn t add too much bacon, it was well balanced. And I really enjoyed the avocado.
...
Healthy, & unusual flavors! This place found me a new favorite comfort food.
On a whole different level, food is out of this world!
Finally, a place that actually seasons their food!
Our new favorite restaurant and it will be yours too - give it a try! Menu changes with the seasons, everything is homemade and tastes fantastic. We have had everything from soups to salads to sandwiches, and desserts. Everything is 5 stars!! Service is great, can't say a bad thing about this pl...
I brought my 5 year old in to try I the place out. The place is clean and nicely set up. We ordered a hot dog, French fries, and a Turkey sandwich. The fries were cold, and the sandwich was missing ingredients. They took it to fix it. In the mean time my kid finished her food and was ready to ...
Very friendly atmosphere! Owner's very nice. Food is exceptional. Prices are a little high but you get quality food for the price! Love it!!
Excellent food! Will be our new go-to place.
Everything fresh and homemade
Had heard good things about this place, but had not been there. Today we stopped in for a late lunch and enjoyed a delicious meal. Freshly prepared food with great combinations. We ordered Whitefish sandwich, and Turkey melt with bacon and avocado along with bacon and cheese fries. Very tasty an...
First time stopping by here for something to eat. When I left was already planning when I could come back to try more menu items.
I have used their catering and stop by frequently. Their Sunday brunch is excellent. The staff is friendly and the food is delicious.
For delivery, I ordered the Mustard Braised Pork Belly Sliders with garlic aioli, Veggie Couscous, Butternut Squash Soup and Pecan Bread Pudding. I sampled everything and enjoyed each item. This kitchen takes deliciousness to a new level of restaurant street food. You can taste the love and devotion...
Supporting this venue. I've been there in the past and will most likely go there after work today :)
Great little spot for a quick meal. Casual with good food and a warm staff.
What a great little place! Food was excellent. Well the fries were a little salty for me, but the burger was excellent and the banana bread was delicious!
Very good place to eat had the red eye burger and the feta fries also the Ghirardelli brownie taste great if you like dark chocolate highly recommended
Ideal bite has a great lunch selection . described as upscale street food and definitely a place to try!
My wife has visited several times. She said the All you can eat Fish Fry on Friday is phenomenal. We decided to stay local and try the Mother's Day Brunch. Ideal Bite Community did not disappoint. They had a variety great dishes. Good value for the menu. Truly a wonderful Mother's Day experience. E...
This place has the best food!!!!!! Completely no contact. Every time my husband and I have eaten here the foo has been awesome . We had the fried chicken and peach sliders and barbecue brisket sandwich yummy give them a try the next tome you re in the area.
The food is wonderful! Operated by family that cares about community.
Super high quality food that us well worth an extra buck or two. So glad to find this gem.
This place is a favorite for my entire family. We grab dinner, a quick salad or dessert and it's always consistent. The staff are the friendliest and knowledgeable. This place feels like home and that you're amongst family anytime you stop in.
Our new favorite spot in the Detroit metro area! Chef crested street food! Don t miss the pork belly sliders :-)
We have been enjoying the fresh food here. Trying different menu items each time. Burgers are delicious and moist, soups, amazing. Friday fish fry is great.
I've been here more times this week than I'd like to admit. The customer service, food, and ambiance is great. The food is a little pricey but it's high quality, freshly prepared food that you can never get from a fast food restaurant. My favorites are the turkey melt and the chicken Cesar salad. T...
Friendly, informative, & attentive staff. The food. Oh, the food! Excellent.The Pork Belly Silders were mouth watering. Highly recommend for any meal.
Just moved to the area and found this wonderful place. Delicious food, reasonable prices, really friendly staff and great atmosphere. Desserts were AMAZING. An absolute must try .
Omg!! Fabulous food! Will b back for sure! Just a word from the wise though...if u r doing the kiss my glass class and she tells u to order food b4 the class....don't do it!!!! You are not allowed to it during the class. Very disappointed we had to eat the food ice cold and hard!!!
What a great experience. Everyone in the group loved their lunch. What better review could you ask for? Excellent service, friendly smiles and great food. It really is ideal!
Good food. Prices high, but is all fresh stuff. Hard to order takeout without set menu or website.
The food is excellent organic, my kind of place!! Everyone in the area please support this place a hidden gem!!
The name Ideal is a very good fit for this small cafe. They are certainly striving to provide us with the best possible food, and it shows.
Simply amazing. Would like to see in a better location but the food's amazing
The food is very good.
A healthy choice and yummy.
Warm and inviting staff serving great tasting food all made from scratch!
Love this restaurant! My husband brought home the sweet potato wedges with honey & garlic aioli sauce one night and I was hooked! I definitely recommend the turkey melt and garlic chicken sliders! They also have gluten/vegan cupcakes that are to die for! Highly recommend!
What an excellent restaurant! I really enjoyed the friendly and kind service they were super accommodating. I was so pleased to find a restaurant that offers grass-fed and grass-finished meat with so many healthy options. I really enjoyed the gluten-free option with the grass-fed burger! I'd highly ...
Exquisitely presented. Community Gem. If you have not experienced it yesterday, you have to try it.
Eat in or carry out, can't go wrong with this place. Stellar sandwiches!
Great selection, wonderfully cozy restaurant, tasty meals
Fresh and unique, with interesting flavors and an airy modern environment. Happy customers and friendly staff. Also, some of the best sandwiches I have ever consumed. Ever.
Love the food here! Mac and Cheese is fantastic, I typically get the Turkey Melt or burgers. My only issue is the fries are not good. they do the very thing shoestring style which in my opinion is the worst way to cook a potato. I wish they did the standard cut.
food 4.5/5
service 4/5
atmosphere 2/5
I heard good things about this place and decided to make the journey here and try it out. The food and presentation is great and it tastes delicious, but its a bit on the pricy side. The service was alright for a quick service restaurant. The only thing tha...
Pass by this at least once a week and never paid attention to what it was. Stopped in for lunch today on my day off. It is nicely decorated. Self seating or takeout. The employees were nice. The food was very good.
