Food Truck launches brick and mortar

  • 15 minutes ago

Detroit 75 Kitchen, named one of the Top 3 Food Trucks in the U.S. and a Top 100 Restaurant by US Weekly, has opened its first brick-and-mortar. Brothers Chef Mike and Ahmad Nassar launched the business from a food trailer at their family’s truck stop near the Ambassador Bridge, serving truck drivers and local workers. Lines soon stretched down Fort Street. After testing demand with a pop-up at the former Sears Auto Center near Oakland Mall, strong community response led them to establish a permanent home nearby at 32275 Stephenson Hwy in Madison Heights. The restaurant features a bright, retro-diner aesthetic with clean lines, terrazzo-style floors, and warm mid-century inspired finishes, including fun details like recycled Faygo pop bottles sealed into the tabletops. The walls showcase awards and artifacts from the brand’s journey—including memorabilia from Detroit’s NFL Draft and the PGA Rocket Mortgage Classic—alongside custom illustrations created by a local artist and photographs celebrating Detroit’s food culture. The menu celebrates Detroit with favorites such as Atwater Chicken-Smoked chicken breast, lettuce, tomato, sweet pickled jalapeños, garlic cilantro aioli on a freshly baked sesame roll; Detroit Style Cheesesteak-Ribeye, sirloin, provolone and Swiss cheeses, roasted mushrooms and peppers, caramelized onions, lettuce, tomato, sweet pickled jalapeños, aioli, house-made vinaigrette on a freshly baked sesame roll; and Fisher Fwy Fish- catfish, gulf Maine haddock, or Lake Erie walleye with lettuce, tomato, pickles, sweet pickled onions, and house-made Old Bay tartar sauce on a freshly baked soft roll.
