The venue is clean and inviting. I like the old fashioned woodwork, tables and chairs. The employees were polite and friendly. The food wasn't as good as I would have liked. Not much flavor to any of it.
I stopped here for lunch and ordered the Roast Beef Plate. It is served cafeteria style, and I chose Mashed Potatoes and Gravy along with Mac n Cheese along with Corn. The service was quick and very friendly. You can tell the servers have been working there a long time. The beef was tender and juicy. The Mac n Cheese was a little bland and the corn was fine. Overall, the price was a bit on the expensive side, but not outrageous considering the quality of the meat. I will stop here again.
This is the last one standing! There used to be several locations, including Dearborn, Detroit, Westland and of course this one which is in Royal oak. We have been to all of those locations over the years, my wife even worked at the one in Detroit. The food is always great, and so are the people that work there. As evidence of that we drive from Redford township to Royal oak because we enjoy it so much. I also have family members that drive from Dearborn, Novi, and Farmington hills. There's just no place left like this anywhere.
The people who work here make it the best.
Such a pleasant experience! It’s been around 25 years since I’ve been to one of these restaurants and it still has the same feel I remember as a child. Roast beef is tender and delicious! Steamed vegetables were cooked to perfection. Oreo cheese cake was superb. Everyone working was extremely friendly. I don’t come out to royal oak often but I will be back next time I’m town. Do yourself a favor and visit Sign of the Beefcarver. ESPECIALLY if you want a quick, fresh and healthy lunch. No fried or fatty foods here!
Love this old school cafeteria restaurant. The food is solid and the service is great.
My 97 yo Dad loves this place and so do I. We both love the food and the people, and I like being the youngest one there, lol.
