We came for the first time yesterday as a group of 10. I can’t say enough good things about our experience. The drinks were phenomenal. The food was so delicious and the service was so quick.

Good music (but not too loud), cool vibe, interesting menu that apparently changes every couple months, cocktail list that was creative and tasty, great service and food. I'll be coming back!

We absolutely loved this place. The food was so good. We ordered so much because we couldn’t choose. The chicken wings, dumplings, lobster bun, bacon skewers- just outstanding. The cacio de Pepe udon was one of the best I ever had. Can’t wait to go back.

Amazing experience every single time! Creative and delicious food and drinks in a beautiful environment. Closest you can get to cool Chicago or New York vibes in Detroit. Compliments to Chef Connor, Emily, our server Jade and the entire staff at Basan. Definitely try their tornado potatoes, buns, bacon skewer, chicken wings and tofu donuts, as well as cool Ube drinks. Thank you, Basan, for another fun night on the town - we’ll be back!

This was the best meal we have had in a long time! If the cabbage salad ever leaves the appetizer menu I will cry. Without exaggeration it was the best salad I’ve ever had. Everything else, including the service, was amazing too. Visit if you can!!

We loved the vibe and the proximity to Little Caesars Arena. It makes it the perfect spot to have dinner before an event. The place is modern, cool and clean.
Kaiden (apologies if the spelling is wrong) was OUTSTANDING! He was always on top of our water glasses being full and made sure we were never waiting on him.
Drinks were good. We had the Tokidoki and the R.D.R. They do need to add a couple of vodka base cocktails, though. I'm a vodka person, and I couldn't believe they were lacking this.
The Crab Mozzarella sticks are AMAZING, and the Philly Cheeseteak Skewers and the Lobster Buns were GREAT. Don't let the mention of Cheez Whiz on the Philly Cheeseteak steer you away from it. I almost didn't order it, and I'm glad I asked if it was really Cheez Whiz. It's more of a homemade beer cheese spread.
Please know that if you don't like spicy, the lamb ragu and the dumplings are not for you.
The pork dumplings and the Udon were good, too. But the Crab Mozzarella sticks were my absolute favorite.
We would go back.

Incredible experience. Took my daughter before a show and it was immaculate.
Had an awesome meal at Basan with friends—no drinks, just pure food coma bliss. Our waitress was spot on, nailing every recommendation like a culinary psychic. Everything we ordered was a hit, and the service was top-notch. Looking forward to my next visit back!
Wow! Wandered into Basan with a friend from out of town and I can say I had a wonderful experience! Atmosphere was very relaxing, chill breezy environment. We chose to sit in the lounge the couches were comfy!
We shared the egg rolls and had the steak & potato dinner, the steak was cooked to perfection! It was also seasoned properly and the chimchurri on the side was flavorful & a nice touch as well. Our waitress was friendly too. I will be coming back asap! :)

Our server Faith was amazing. Menu was a bit different from last year but the food was still great. Drinks were very flavorful.
Unbelievable! We decided to come to Basan for the Chef Counter and were a little hesitant to because we didn’t know anyone that had been. So glad we took the chance - the experience and food were incredible. Chef Eric has incredible range, from mock sushi to green tea miso carbonara. We got eight incredibly different dishes and every single one was a 10/10 for all four people in our party. The service and portioning were also fantastic, but the food was absolutely unforgettable.

Very attentive staff & great atmosphere and tapas style spot. Seem to be very proactive about / attentive to any allergies. Lobster bun did not impress my group and we preferred the pork belly bun. The squash skewers, tornado potato, ahi tuna poke, and pork dumplings were good but nothing stood out that would bring me back despite the beautiful plating. Tofu donuts were a great way to end the experience.
Stopped in to grab some quick food at the bar with my amazing partner. Food and service was great and same with the drinks. Everyone working there from the bar tender to the bus boy was on there A game. Very impressed for food service atmosphere and price, will be come back from more date nights.
