Step through the front door of HAAB'S RESTAURANT and imagine what it might have been like in 1934 when Oscar and Otto Haab chose this building as the site of their new restaurant.Well-known restaurants are generally known by signature menu items. Haab's Restaurant is no exception. A thick-cut New York Strip Sirloin Steak, broiled to perfection, is unquestionably Haab's most famous item. Haab's was acclaimed locally in the Ann Arbor News reader poll as "Washtenaw County's No. 1 steak house" every year until the category was retired. Haab's reputation has spread beyond the county, however, as evidenced by the article from Detroit Monthly, prominently displayed at the front entrance, "For the best steak in Detroit, go to Ypsilanti." Ironically, the New York Strip Steak is not Haab's most popular item. The Prime London Broil, as featured in Ford Times Magazine, consistently outsells everything else on the extensive menu. Seafood has also become increasingly popular in recent years, and Haab's has adjusted its menu to include over 15 fresh and frozen seafood items. In fact, it is not uncommon for customers to proclaim that, although they summer on Michigan's Leelanau Peninsula, they await their return to Haab's to experience really great whitefish.
