“Really enjoyed our visit here! We were seated right away, and our food and drinks arrived quickly without any long waits. We started with the calamari, which was fresh and nicely prepared, although I think it could have used a more flavorful dipping sauce. The steak frites were the real highlight—the steak was cooked perfectly, and the fries were crispy and delicious. Overall, it was a smooth, relaxed dining experience with good food and quick service. I’d definitely come back again.“

“We dined here prior to seeing a show at the Fisher. From the minute we walked in we were so Impressed. The staff at the door were super friendly and took us directly to our seats. The waitstaff was extremely attentive, and the food was amazing. We cannot wait to go back. We highly recommend!“

“A group of us made the quick walk over to Townhouse from the convention center. We were given the option to sit right away or wait a few minutes for a table to be cleared in the atrium. So glad we chose to wait. The atrium is beautiful! Our server, Diego, was fantastic and all his recommendations were hits at the table! He also was diligent about checking with the kitchen to ensure those in our parties with allergies/sensitivities were good with their food choices.“

The Brachetto was another standout and easily one of my favorite bites of the evening. We also tried the Wagyu short rib, which was tender, rich, and the ultimate comfort dish. Everything felt thoughtfully prepared and full of flavor. A fantastic experience overall, and definitely a place I’d come back to again.“

“Couple weeks ago was my first time eating there. Wow was it amazing. I was stuffing myself. It tasted so good.
Came back today pretty much got the same thing. Chicken parm both times.Today the chicken wasn’t right. The top half of the chicken breast was grizzly the bottom half wasn’t grizzly, but it was hard to cut.
Third time is the charm, we will see !!!“

“My girlfriend and meself stopped in randomly after the Eastern Market and had one of the best meals and experience we’ve had while visiting Detroit. The Tokyo muscles were the best muscles I’ve ever had. We had a classic Bloody Mary and their hot sauce really brought some heat! We got the Carmel cookie coffee as well and that was swell as well. The environment and staff especially made the experience even better. We had Rhonda as a server and she was very pleasant and helped give us recommendations that turned out to be very tasty. Overall we were glad we chose to eat at Vivio’s and will definitely be back next time we wander to Detroit.“

“Stopped here before a concert at LCA last night - obviously busy, but wait wasn’t bad at all and we were able to get a drink at the bar and wait outside. I wish I could remember our servers name, but she was absolutely stellar! She was super friendly, funny and quick despite having a large section on a busy night. Got the shrimp tacos (AMAZING and filling - has a perfect amount of “kick”) and my husband got the hot chicken sandwich (the one small bite I was allowed was phenomenal) overall 10/10 experience!“

“The food and service was excellent!!! The stuffed salmon is a must!! The bartender customer service was impeccable.“

It was awesome to see how well The employees handled the fast-paced environment“

“Ann is an extraordinary server. I'd return just to be served by her. Thanks!“

“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!“

“Probably the only place where can get breakfast for 2 people for less than $30. This is a casual, no frills spot to grab a quick meal. The food its self was just okay, a little oily, but the portions are good and the food came out really quickly.“

“I loved the vegan avocado BLT 😋“

“I moved to SCS 5 months ago and have never been here before. My family and I have tried carryout from several restaurants and we always end up with Gilbert’s. Great food, service & prices. I had my daughters 1st birthday in their banquet room yesterday and I’m over the moon happy with how it turned out! The staff was super helpful and always around when I needed anything. The food was great, my guests raved about the pizza and spinach dip. I would book events here in the future without a doubt. Look no further for a great American cuisine menu and staff that makes you feel like family!“

“Went there for the first time for lunch today had the burger and fries. Everything was top-notch prices were really good. Service was great. The old Bar feeling was great in the history that the place has is amazing. Definitely will be back here more often for the delicious burgers and fries.“

“From the moment we arrived, our experience was nothing short of amazing. The food was outstanding—every dish was fresh, flavorful, and beautifully prepared. The atmosphere inside the restaurant was warm, friendly, and fun, making it the kind of place where you immediately feel comfortable and welcome. On top of that, the location is fantastic, with plenty of activities nearby to enjoy before or after your meal, which really added to the overall experience. The highlight of our visit, however, was our waitress, Ashley W. She went above and beyond in every way. Ashley anticipated our every need before we even had to ask, showing an attentiveness that is rare to find. She was friendly, personable, and very knowledgeable about the menu, which made ordering so much easier and more enjoyable. Her positive energy and genuine care turned what was already a great dining experience into something truly memorable. Ashley is, without a doubt, the main reason my family and I plan to return. Her service left such a lasting impression on us that we would gladly make the trip back to Michigan just to eat here again. It is rare to come across someone who takes so much pride in their work and makes every guest feel special, but Ashley did exactly that. She is an absolute asset to this restaurant, and we cannot thank her enough for making our visit exceptional.“

“The service is wonderful; they will take care of you and your guest(s). It is sure to be a cozy evening of fine dining.“

“I had the best service from Casaandra ,she is professional ,outgoing service is 1000%“

“Had a mix up with drive through order, didn't get toppings on veggie burger, turns out employee in trainee. We can understand that.

Harvey's offered to make my next meal experience much better, Thank you for that, comped our combos for the next time we came back to compensate for the inconvenience.
Very appreciated!!
It's not a Harvey's burger without all the toppings on it, you really can't just add at home!
Thank you to Store Manager Amber for a quick reply and fixing the problem asap!“

“Been here a few times and it is one of my favorite places to visit in Detroit. The drinks and food rotate and every time I go I find a new favorite!“

“Not only is the food fantastic, but the people behind it are what truly make it special. You can tell they genuinely care about their customers and the community around them. They recently sponsored a local BJJ tournament, which speaks volumes about the kind of business they are—supportive, generous, and invested in bringing people together. It’s always inspiring to see businesses give back in meaningful ways, and they absolutely lead by example. If you’re looking for great food and even better people, this is a place worth supporting. Highly recommend!“

“We stopped in Central Kitchen + Bar this past Sunday, 9/21, for brunch before the Tigers Game. What a fantastic experience! We were greeted so kindly and had the pleasure of Brandon serving us. He gave us many menu recommendations and checked on us continually. The atmosphere of the restaurant was “elegant and fun!” We’ll be back the next time we visit Detroit. Thanks for a wonderful dining experience!“

“I ordered delivery from a service that did not follow directions and never received the order until my neighbor found it outside. I called the establishment and the owner himself delivered the order in 20 minutes. He went above and beyond. I would highly recommend this restaurant with a side note that the food was delicious.“

“I had a delicious biscuit and a Black Tonic! Very interesting beverage if you’re feeling a little daring - I liked it!“
