The Eagle Detroit

“Crispy, flavorful juicy fried chicken with the perfect crunch, especially with the hot honey. The sandwich was juicy and stacked with fresh ingredients. Great portions and a fun, lively atmosphere. Definitely a go-to spot for comfort food.”

“Very, very pleased with everything! The waitress was attentive and very knowledgeable of the menu! The food was absolutely delicious and pleasing to the eye! Will definitely return and highly recommend them! Was not disappointed at all 🤩”

“This was my first time going and we went for happy hour. The chicken drums are good but I don’t like the honey with it. The grits are great, tastes like a hint of jalapeño.”

October 2025 - came here before going to the LCA. What a great restaurant! The food and service was great. We ordered the whole chicken, collards, mashed potatoes, green beans, and spoonbread. Everything was very good and my wife and I could not finish it all. We also ordered some hush puppies that were very good too. The service was very good. If you want a good meal, and you like southern cooking, this is a great place to go to.

The restaurant is very nice. I did like the flavor of my food. However, I think the price of the chicken is slightly high. I think $10 for two pieces of chicken (breast and wing) is to much! If the chicken was bigger or 3 pieces it would be better. I didn't like the burnt ends! They were overcooked and small. I wouldn't buy those again. Other than that, I would go again to try other dishes.

If you’ve never been to The Eagle, do yourself a favor and go! Their brined fried chicken is seasoned to perfection—crispy on the outside, juicy on the inside—and that special spiced honey drizzled on top takes it right over the edge. The sides are just as memorable: the shrimp and grits are creamy and rich, the vegetable succotash tastes like summer in a bowl, and the baked mac and cheese is pure comfort. Wash it all down with their sweet lemonade, and you’ve got yourself a meal that hits every note. 🍗🍯🍋—Karen Fox

It took me a minute to write this review but it's not because they were slacking. No sir! My cousin Rhea told me about this place. She told me there is one in Cincinnati. (Base) I arrived when they first opened. Rio was at the bar and was very knowledgeable about the history and the menu of the restaurant. I enjoyed the chopped salad at the restaurant but took the famous fried chicken with hot honey sauce home. The salad had everything from corn, beans, cheese, lettuce, (kitchen sink)! I mean so many ingredients that went well together. A must try. The chicken was juicy, moist and flavorful. I
