    Default Restaurant located on S. side of Plymouth Road west of Greenfield in late 1960's

    I am attempting to locate the name of a restaurant/diner that was located on Plymouth Road west of Greenfield in the late 60's early 70's; the south side of Plymouth; I do believe there is a McDonalds there now.
    Thanks for any input.

    Everything I remember so far was on the north side of Plymouth except the carry out deli and party store a couple blocks east of Woodmont.

    Henry's Hamburger was on Greenfield just north of Plymouth Rd. The Atlas Theater was on the north side of Plymouth Rd. just a few blocks west of Greenfield. Across the street was a coin shop - Jerry's Coin Case. Was the diner west of the Atlas Theater & Detroit Bank & Trust? Tom's Garden was a Chinese restaurant also on Plymouth Rd. several blocks west of Greenfield.

    Are you sure its the same location of Mcdonalds. The Mcdonalds is not a few blocks west of Greenfield.
    Was this place a real funky Mom and Pop place?

    Yes I know that fancy post art deco like restaurant on the corner of Plymouth Rd and Greenfield near Winthop St. Just across the street where a supermarket name "Red Bull' was it before it came a McDonald's. It was a Coney Island when I went there. The place was closed in 2000. The building was looted and was demolished. Now a vacant lot.
