We’ve got it. Hosting a full street festival on the Dequindre Cut? We can scale up without breaking a sweat.

Check out a few hometown favorites ready to park at your curb:

  • Detroit 75 Kitchen – nationally acclaimed sandwiches like the 75 Chicken Shawarma, straight from the west side’s favorite curbside kitchen.
  • Waka Street Food – bold African flavors: jollof rice, suya skewers, and plantain chips that keep the block party jumping.

The food was delicious!! And the quantity was better than I expected so guests were definitely full! I didn't give it 5 stars because even with the guest total known, some people were waiting between 30-50 minutes for the food. Luckily, we had enough time at the event and my friends were easy going about it so it was ok. Also, the main chef had a teenager it seemed helping him and she was very quickly overwhelmed and obviously unhappy so it made for a potentially unpleasant experience but as I said, my dear friends were super understanding and the food tasted GREAT so it didn't become a point of disappointment.

I was told that the $6 garlic fries I paid extra for were on the one box. I find it hard to believe that was extra fries. Seems like it would be an extra box(extra side)
