“Visited The Cook's Shop for my wife's birthday and had a wonderful experience. Carlos was our server—attentive, friendly, and made sure we were well taken care of throughout the evening.

For the appetizer, I had the grilled calamari. It was perfectly tender and came with two sauces: one layered beneath the squid and another served on the side, both adding great flavor contrast.

For the main course, I chose the scaloppine piccata. The risotto it came with was creamy, rich, and packed with mushrooms—absolutely delicious.“

“we ate there tonight..party of 5. great food.. atmosphere and service (Megan).. will go back again. :)“

“It use to be be a favorite restaurant. After the renovations it has changed. I am stating from a top notch restaurant now everything has changed. Quality, wait staff, noise level. Everything was wrong when we went there. I know they have to factor cost and profit and this is what was best. Not for us, won’t be back“

“Ordered pizza for pickup while staying across the street at Holiday Inn Express. Although the toppings were plentiful and delicious, the crust was undercooked & a little doughy! Plus, it was on a sheet of parchment/wax paper that was completely stuck to the crust & impossible to peel off! Unfortunately, these 2 details turned what should have been an enjoyable night into a messy and frustrating experience!“

“Amazing service and delicious food! Would give 10 stars if I could.“

“Went to Ciao last night for a birthday/Valentines Day dinner. They had a set menu for the night. Every single thing we ate was beyond delicious!! The plates were so pretty to look at and even better to taste. So much love went into each plate! The Gorgonzola gnocchi melted in your mouth. The meat (on the short ribs) fell right off the bone…don’t even get me started on the cheesecake and chocolate creme brûlée!!! 😍 Mia, our server went above and made the night so much better. Definitely worth every penny!!“

“Looking forward to the next menu!“

“Something weird is going on here. Little Italy opened 2 days ago and they have 64 reviews that all pertain to BBQ Daddy. Anyhow, I got a meat lovers. It seemed a tad overbaked. Either the pepperoni or sauce were a bit too zesty for my taste. Not bad, just not for me.“

“Great food and drinks! the atmosphere is warm and welcoming... I had dinner last night and absolutely loved my server Jamie... What a great and fun personality he is... We'll definitely be back soon.“

“Stopped in for dinner & was pleasantly surprised. Great Atmosphere, lovely service & simple Italian ingredients executed beautifully.

From the second the bread basket hot the table to the lovely waitress who bagged up the food we couldn’t possibly eat any more of, we had a great experience.

Nice drink selections, fresh ingredients &
outstanding service.

We will definitely be back for more bread, maybe some calamari & I would love to try your take on a Caesar salad. I will leave room for some dessert next time as well.“

“Outstanding restaurant and amazing food.“

“Excellent food, great service, Loved everything about it. Definitely will be back“

“Charming. An old school Italian restaurant in a charming part of Grosse Pointe Park. A family friendly restaurant without being adult unfriendly ?. I went with a classic lasagna and it tasted like I was a “made man” in the Corleone family or something. Heaven! Atmosphere was classy without being stuffy. Midweek dinner and not much of a crowd so we were seated right away. I think my favorite part was tomato sauce that was used in the lasagna.“

“Amazing, 5 stars all around !“

“Café Nini quietly delivers where it counts. The food is classic Italian done right — perfectly cooked pastas, flavorful sauces, and well-balanced portions that feel both comforting and refined. Service is warm, attentive, and professional, with staff who strike the perfect balance between friendly and unobtrusive. The cozy, elegant atmosphere invites you to relax and enjoy good conversation over a great meal. Café Nini doesn’t chase trends — it simply delivers quality, consistency, and charm! Nice job“

“1st time coming here. wish I would have known about this place before now.. So glad seen it on a TikTok video. We will definitely be back again . Chicken Parm and House salad was very good . only issue we had was found out after they had a Specials Sheet and we never seen it or was told about . my wife would have definitely had the fish Special 😔.. but next time will make sure we ask I guess to make sure we see it..“

“We celebrated my birthday after a late arrival at Detroit Metro Airport on a weeknight. The hostess, our waiter, and servers were all very friendly and helpful.

“The girl at the register is very nice and pleasant on the phone. The pizza was fantastic but the menu online needs to be updated. Every pizza on the list increased 35-45% in price which equates to $6-7 extra per pizza. The large cheese pizza is $19 not $13 the pepperoni is $22 not $15.“
