“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.“

Again it was perfectly seasoned and juicy and tender. We will definitely be back. We are staying at the hotel which is beautiful as well“

The food came out fast and hot, and everything tasted incredibly fresh and delicious. And I HAVE to mention the lemon rice soup, SO GOOD, I had to make a request to have one to go!

The owner was also incredibly friendly and personable. He took the time to chat and made the whole experience feel so welcoming and personal.

I left feeling full, happy, and already wanting to come back. This place genuinely made my day! I’m so glad I discovered it and will definitely be returning. Highly recommend checking out the Ham Shop in Detroit!“

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!“

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!“

“Lunchtime Global is a great spot for a quick and healthy lunch in downtown Detroit. The restaurant is known for its fresh soups, sandwiches, and salads, making it a nice alternative to typical fast-food options.

I tried a sandwich with a cup of soup, and it was simple but really satisfying. The ingredients tasted fresh, and the portion size was generous. They also have a wide variety of soups made daily, so there’s usually something for everyone.

The atmosphere is casual and perfect for a quick lunch break. Overall, Lunchtime Global is a solid choice if you’re looking for a fresh, light meal in downtown Detroit.“

“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!“
