The Apparatus Room offers a unique dining experience near the Detroit River Walk, with high ceilings and attentive staff. The bright, modern, and chic ambiance is enhanced by beautiful lights around the bar that illuminate the entire space. During the holiday season, the decor, including a towering Christmas tree, creates a warm and inviting atmosphere. The menu features a variety of dishes that seem made-to-order, such as oysters, tuna tartare, and the striploin, which was juicy and flavorful. The black garlic truffle and Calabrian chili add special touches to the meals. Guests enjoy the cocktails and appreciate the thoughtful service, including a complimentary non-alcoholic wine and a light, melting cream puff dessert. Recent visitors found the food overall good, with some dishes needing slight adjustments, which were handled well by the staff. The lively yet welcoming environment makes The Apparatus Room a popular spot for celebrating special occasions or enjoying a great meal and atmosphere. Some guests noted that the menu options did not fully match the upscale ambiance, and a few found certain dishes, like the side salad and appetizers, to be disappointing in flavor or portion size. Despite this, the restaurant remains a favorite for its stylish setting and friendly service.
