Skylar was our waitress and she didnt miss a beat. They made our experience wonderful and thats why we will be back with our friends visiting from NYC in two weeks. We want to show them that Detroit is just as festive.“

“We had a great time! The sushi, Raspberry Michigan dessert, service, and my drop drink were absolutely delicious! The music and service from Iyanna were amazing, and then Chef Sebastian came out to introduce himself to us. Such a fantastic experience overall—you won’t regret going there for a special occasion! ❤️“

“This is the Creme de la creme of Detroit's finest dining. The service was excellent, the staff was very professional and the General Manger, Byron, was very attentive and impeccable to us. I commend the owners for choosing such a great person to manage the restaurant. I definitely recommend this restaurant to anyone who want to experience the finest in dining. KUDOS to Highlands Detroit!“

“I am not a food critic. But I have the time while flying back home to reflect on dinner last night. The experience was so amazing that I had to leave a glowing review. I seldom take the time to do so.

Marrow is top shelf dining experience. My friends and I went all in with the food paring ($90) and drink paring ($45) options. Pricey but well worth it. 3 small but flavorful starters, a wonderful pear salad, a chorizo and gnocchi dish head of the main event… a 7oz flat iron steak cooked to perfection over a bed of lightly smoked and tender pinto beans finishing with a single scoop of chestnut ice cream. But that was just the food. The drinks were carefully paired with each course. 5 in total. Each one balanced bitterness, sweetness, and acid with each course. My mouth was alive as if it had been raised from the dead. It was so amazing that I forgot to mentally note each drink so I could describe them in the future.

This place is a diamond in the rough. I only wish I had met the chef and the team behind the incredible experience.

I am from Los Angeles and have plenty of great places to dine. My visit to Detroit to watch my friends compete in an indoor track bike race was punctuated be this celebratory dinner.

If you love incredible food with thoughtfully pared drinks, I cannot recommend Marrow enough.“

“Literally the best breakfast sammich I’ve consumed. I’ve had several attempts to recreate this at other diners & they ALL fail in comparison.“

“Great service!! We shared small plates and entrees!“

“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.“

“This was my first time at Zeffs.i was headed downtown to Jury duty and needed breakfast. It was 6:30 am. The employees were so pleasant early in the morning which was a plus. The other patrons were a morning delight. The food was delicious and tasty. The wait wasn't long at all 😁. The outside of the restaurant was clean. The inside was clean and inviting. I would recommend this place to anyone looking for a great place to eat... especially early in the morning.“

“Very unique flavors, I love the blending of Asian with Mexicano…incredible cuisine!“

“Honestly it could be 5s all the way across if you consider this isn't trying to be a 5 star Michelin restaurant. Going with the Monday special, 7.50 for a good burger and fries you can't go wrong. 25 oz 2 Hearted for $9, most places you get 1/2 that for $9. Plus this is NOT a dive. Good prices, good fool!“

“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!“

“My husband and I had dinner out at the Sandbar for the first time since Covid. Well didn’t we have the most delightful time. Prompt service along with delicious food was just what we needed. We attended with 10 other friends and truly a good time had by all.“

“Had an amazing experience at Checkmate Burgers in Warren, MI today with my daughters. The owner was super friendly, and the food was excellent. Definitely a hidden gem—highly recommend checking it out!“

“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.“

“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!“

“All the food looks Fantastic 👌 😍 😋“

“I want to sincerely thank the owner and staff at Kerby’s Koney Island in Warren for their kindness and compassion. Recently, before I had to say goodbye to my dog Kerby, I stopped in and met the owner — such a genuinely nice guy — who kindly took a moment to let us capture something truly special.

That moment — a simple photo of me, my son, Kerby, and one of their wonderful waiters — has become one of my most treasured memories. It’s a reminder of kindness, community, and how the smallest gestures can mean the world to someone going through something difficult.

A little backstory: I actually named my dog Kerby because he’s part dachshund, and I thought it’d be funny and fitting to name him after a hot dog — and after the best Koney Island around. (And yes, before anyone asks, I know there’s a Kirby vacuum cleaner. He wasn’t named after that, though he did inhale snacks pretty fast. And no, not the little pink video game character either — his name is proudly spelled K-E-R-B-Y.)

Thank you, Kerby’s, for being part of that moment. I’ll never forget it.“

“AIdan is the BEST! Very compassionate about talking about my dad who is now dying. Thanks! Of course the ribs were great!“

“I used to go here all the time as a kid with my dad, so I decided to take my kids to share this experience with my own daughters. It was so nostalgic. It didn't disappoint. My girls love the huge pancakes and my oldest enjoyed her omelet. Plus, I enjoyed my breakfast with the best side of thick juicy ham this is served in the city of Detroit. Period. Excellent experience“

“We were in the neighborhood for an event at Epiphany and were looking for a place to eat and have a drink before the show. We decided to try Zell's Corner based on the location and reviews, and I am so glad we did. The owners were very friendly and welcoming, the food was excellent, and the corner bar atmosphere was exactly what we were looking for. When we are in the vicinity again we will definitely be back for the food, cold beer and to say hello to our new friends.“

“Home cooked food at very reasonable prices in a very friendly atmosphere.“
