It was the 1930s and Six Mile and Conant was like any street corner in Detroit… people walking to the market, neighbors helping neighbors, and friends meeting at the local gathering spot now known as Buddy’s. Buddy’s existed as a “blind pig,” skirting the State and Federal laws that governed the on-site sale and usage of alcohol. Booze was available there. The owner at the time was August “Gus” Guerra.

Our authentic BBQ starts in a live-wood smoker stoked with genuine hickory logs. Our pitmasters hand-rub the meats with a custom blend of spices and cook for hours to extract the natural flavors. We source the highest quality meats and trim them up like we’re in a competition and hand-rub them with the freshest seasonings available to create mouthwatering experiences! In addition to our BBQ and grilled meats, our menu features a selection of salads, sandwiches, side items, and made-from-scratch desserts.

    This was my first time at the Gandy Dancer and I was impressed. It was Christmas Day and the restaurant was crowded. The staff was wonderful and gave us excellent service. Despite the crowd we never felt neglected. To begin, I ordered the butternut squash soup and my husband had the chowder. For the main course I had the scallops with risotto and my husband had the prime rib. Both meals were excellent and were good portions. The creme brulee for dessert was a perfect ending to a great meal. I thought that the prix fix price was reasonable too. Add all this to the ambiance of the old railroad station and it was a wonderful way to spend Christmas. We will definitely go back.

    Love the ambiance! We started with the beef wellington bites, omg delicious. I had the sea bass which was so good, and my husband had the chicken, he said it was the best he’s ever had. Love the final touch of the homemade cookies- so good. Although it’s pricey, it’s worth it.
