All Star Cafe & Catering

Erica Hogan 7 months ago

I visit the Ottawa Building from time to time due to my job with the state of Michigan. When I am there, I visit the All Star Cafe to grab coffee or bacon and a bagel. Each time I go in the All Star Cafe, I am greeted by Roy and Brian. They have to be the most friendliest, proudest, funniest, and kindest cooks on the face of the earth. They LOVE what they do. It shows in how they communicate with all customers. On Thursday, 3/5 I decided to grab lunch at the All Star Cafe. I asked Roy if he would make me a bacon cheeseburger. He was so delighted! He made me feel like I was getting ready to eat the best burger ever! I requested hot fries. He was so eager to drop fresh fries. It was as if my requests were gifts for HIM! That put the biggest smile on my face. Then Brian put my burger and fries in the container with such joy and excitement. It was as if he was creating a masterpiece of art. It made me smile even bigger. I was so appreciative, I had to let the world know. I didn't just get great food, I got an experience from two individuals whose daily purpose is to made people enjoy their day just a little bit better. What a beautiful day I had! Thank you so much Roy and Brian for alw

Not a bad place to grab a quick bite if you're an employee of the state of Michigan. The wings are better than horrocks, thereare plenty of salad bar options. And french fries if that's your thing. Checkout is kind of a mess and reminiscent of school cafeteria.

staff is rude on a regular basis UPDATE: other than the very nice and kind owner Ben, the manager is ALWAYS rude-if you can get her off her phone to handle a question-there was 1 other person in the cafeteria besides me...

Located on "UL," which is one level down from main floor. On multiple visits, I give it a 3/5. I think the salad bar should be monitored better for cold temperatures (appears to have been addressed), and the soups need to be much warmer. They have a variety of snacks and sides. On one visit, the french fries were nearly cold and definitely not fresh, and you have to ask for ketchup at checkout. I was provided two packets, and while I was initially annoyed at the stinginess, I think it's probably a good way to prevent people from wasting condiments. Overall, it's a convenient option with friendly staff, but be sure to temper your expectations before going in. - Hot dog: good, consistent option. - PBJ: not nearly enough PB or J. - Tuna: no seasoning and small portion. - Fish sandwich: pretty good. - Grilled cheese: basic, but pretty good. - Chicken strips: poor quality, mediocre processed meat. - Tilapia: Overcooked, but still a solid option. - Turkey melt: surprisingly good.
