22 Best Wine Bars in Detroit

“Amazing anniversary dinner there and did not disappoint!! 5 stars and we will be back.“

“Great night out. The food was terrific especially the salmon kabob and the white bean and arugula.
Excellent wine selection and the sommelier made the perfect recommendation for us.
For an open space restaurant it was well suited for a “quiet” meal and easy conversations.
The staff was knowledgeable about the menu and well timed attentive.“

“My lady and I celebrated our anniversary at Bar Pigalle last night, and it was just as incredible as we remembered. We had been once before and absolutely loved it, so returning was an easy choice.

The ambiance is elegant yet inviting. It has that hidden-gem quality that makes you feel special the moment you walk in. Our server, Adam, was warm, welcoming, and attentive, making the entire experience even more enjoyable.

And the food? Phenomenal. We started with two expertly crafted cocktails, the Turn on Red and the French Caffee, both delightful in their own way. For appetizers, we shared the beet salad and mushroom gratin, which were flavorful and perfectly prepared. But the real reason we came back...The burger.

I know it’s “just” a burger, but this is the burger I judge all others by. I’m not exaggerating when I say it’s the best I’ve ever had—juicy, flavorful, and just downright delicious. If you're a burger lover, this is the one you need to try.

Bar Pigalle continues to impress, and we’ll absolutely be back again!“

“Wow. What an absolutely fantastic final dinner of 2023! After we managed to find a late dinner reservation for New Year's Eve, it was a relief to discover that our excitement about the tasting menu was well-placed. I would definitely recommend the drink pairings as well! The amuse-bouche featuring oysters from the West and East coasts was a delightful way to splash into the meal. The wasabi and the mangosteen featured in each of the oysters, respectively, complimented the beautiful brine of the oysters in such a wonderfully playful way. This first tasting urged us to pause the menu progression and order an extra dozen oysters to explore the other possibilities. Tasting from Vancouver to Prince Edward Island, they were beautifully prepared and of excellent quality. The first course of lobster salad felt like a summer in Maine. Not that I've ever been to Maine, but the imaginary scene flashed across my vision as I took that first refreshing bite. The grapefruit emulsion worked almost majestically with the light, refreshing flavor of the lobster salad. The tapioca chip was perfect for the crunch to fully bring the different elements of the dish together. A fascinating intersection of refreshment and comfort. The second course was the potato pavé. I'll be thinking of this potato often for the foreseeable future. It was one of those dishes that makes your eyes pop open a bit when you bite it as you realize how good it is. A beautifully layered and seared rectangle of flaky delicious potato resting with a lovely salsa brava speckled with trout roe, topped with tarragon, cured trout, and black truffle flakes. I don't even know what else to say. It was stunning. Sea urchin buttered ramen, the third course, will always be what I wish my at-home thrown-together ramen could be. It was rich, it was luscious, it was comforting. Growing up in southeast Texas, crawfish boils were always some of the most exciting times of the year. The crawfish tails in the ramen brought me back to those summer days eating crawfish with a cold beer. The duck breast for the fourth course was exceptionally cooked. It was juicy and flavorful and made a perfect bite with a bit of cauliflower, raisins, apricot, agrodolce, and foie-sauce. Each bite was such a symphony of flavor that kept me coming back. Last but absolutely not least was the gâteau ardéchois: the chestnut cream cake. Accompanied by cranberry coulis and crispy meringue bites, this dessert was a sweet but still mellow finish. While the coffee mascarpone ice cream was a robust and complementary flavor, we both agreed the vanilla coconut ice cream was the star between the two. Thank you again to the stellar crew at Mink! Happy New Year!“

“Stopped in after a Tigers game for a drink. Cozy atmosphere with library inspired storage for wine and spirits. Definitely recommend for a glass of wine or cocktail.

Recommended by @j_r0ze. Large Rose' selection with local wines featured. Had a delicious Lemoncello Spritz.“

“DTW - Detroit Airport - Great place to hang out before boarding. Wine, food, snacks and all other kinds of beverages.An oasis of sorts in one of the lesser traveled concourses at DTW, (Concourse C). Prices are not out of line for wine and food. Also worth noting is that the bartender is far from "awful" (as previously reported). The one that was working when we were there was exceptionally pleasant and working the entire front end all by herself.“

“Authentic, delicious and friendly people, super recommend“

“This place is a Gem. One of a kind. It's the perfect place for every occasion. The owners give me hope in humanity and that a solid relationship can happen. The patio the music and food pop ups are top of the line. The wine selection and prices are amazing. 100000 % recommended“

“Great bar and very friendly people here. The neighborhood is such a great place!“

“Our nicest neighbors! For years every guest that goes the block down to Folk comes back saying how great it is. Thanks for being our amazing neighbors to the north.“

“We visited Mudgie’s late in the day on their host day for Sandwich Week. The food is always fantastic here but what truly stands out is the level of service. We were truly touched by the amount of effort and care these people provide. We knew we were late in the day and they were out of a few things as everything is fresh. The host took a great deal of time to run through the menu and made sure that the 12 year old we had with us felt fully taken care of. He ordered a grilled cheese and he likes to dip in ketchup. As they make their own and it was a busy day , they were out of ketchup but moments later, our server came by with some. The server had run to another restaurant in the area to make sure this young guy had his ketchup with his grilled cheese. Thank you to Mudgie’s staff for a great experience“

“The pizza was good. The wine was great. The special was sold out. I didn't know it was karaoke night though. Music from karaoke was playing as well as like a spotify playlist so the noise was a bit distracting. Otherwise I had no problem getting seated. The food came really quickly. The servers were generally helpful. I would come here again.“

“Love the whole vibe and atmosphere. From the wonderful front desk person to our awesome server Jonathan.

Excellent service and love the expresso Martini.

Will definitely be back and want to visit the cigar bar and spa.

Excellent anniversary dinner.“

“Table No. 2's lobster bisque, surf and turf, and peach cobbler make for a fantastic dining experience! High-quality food and friendly service. Highly recommend! Will return!“

“Had a great time last night at Brix. The customer service was phenomenal and the food was amazing . I had a strawberry tequila lemon drop and it was absolutely amazing !!! The ambiance and location are the best !!“

“Whatever they’re paying Chris isn’t enough. He’s a national treasure for any business. Honestly wish I would have offered him a job. But even aside from Chris, Vino Volo is the spot for above average wine, especially in an airport. Definitely considering flying through DTW again just to hang out and drink good wine. Certainly stop in no matter how much time you have.“

“Wow! Had one of our best meals in Sorrento tonight. Make sure to put this one on your list!“

“Great service and selection! I recommend Sugar House to any bourbon lover!“

“Our server was awesome. The food was amazing. Our suggestion was the area we sat in kind of felt like you were in a basement. It would have been great if we had a better view of the riverfront. We had a great experience and no complaints would go back again.“

“New Restaurant in Hotel Indigo. With a full bar and tap beer.“

“I stopped in for the 1rst time Superbowl Sunday & enjoyed a fried turkey chop dinner w brussel sprouts & fries. Surprisingly delicious., I'll b back for 2nds soon. The staff was great w good positive energy & the music & sound system was bumping. Definitely good times happening on the Eastside of Detroit.“

“If Katrell (Pineapple Daddy) wasn't here...I wouldn't make it a mandatory location. He makes sure my party is happy and that everything is everything. The food is excellent and the service is as well!“
