24 Seconds

Well I love coming to the patio at 24 seconds, although the service can be hit or miss.   Last night, the restaurant was reserving tables for a party but there was no one using  them for at least 2 hours we were there. One gentleman said we could take their table but they had given their chairs away to other people.  So we grabbed a few chairs and the waitress from that section says rudely "you can't take the chairs from the reserved tables", but didn't offer us a seat.  I get the feeling that she was hoping that we would leave so she could reserve our table too.  Luckily the waitress for our section was much nicer and actually gave her customers folding chairs.  The food is okay, I had their veggie burger.  I would opt with fries instead of chips, especially their waffle fries.  There are specials during Tiger games too.

Good for watching sports on their 1,289 TVs, or for enjoying the summertime on the rooftop.  It's one of only 3 rooftop decks in the area (along with Social in B'Ham and Red Fox in Royal Oak), so it's definitely worth a try for that reason alone.

For the same reason, it definitely exhibits some of the calling cards of a douche-haven, but definitely less so than the other two rooftop spots (this is Berkley, after all), and really only on Friday or Saturday nights.  The music is often a little loud, too, especially during lunchtime.  I doubt many people are looking for a thumping scene at 1:00pm on a Sunday afternoon, but perhaps that's just me.

Nevertheless, the food is passable if you stick to the basics, and the bar on the rooftop really is a cool spot.

Looked up 24 Seconds on Yelp to go watch a Stanley Cup hockey game while visiting.  Lots of TVs.  Service was good; our server was not clingy, but was always around when we needed her and very friendly.  Food was decent.  Beer list was somewhat lengthy.  Be careful with the Firehouse Nachos...they sting...twice.
