New American Restaurants near Novi, MI

“Visited on Sun 12/21 and they were so busy... but we got in very quickly! Our server, Brianna B was awesome! So sweet and friendly, she helped make our holiday lunch so much fun! And the food was delicious... came out HOT.. and that made all the difference!“

“the food is always great and I love all the servers. they are so kind and caring. great neighborhood spot“

“We had Mother’s Day brunch here a the food was amazing. Everything was great. Potatoes seasoned right, filet was cook medium, with an exquisite gravy. Chicken and vegetables were also good. The waitress and staff was attentive and served us some very delightful strawberry mimosas. Over the experience was very good!“

“I like this place. Used to live nearby, but moved in 2024. I now travel 17 miles to go to this place. It has a low key vibe, service is good, and the food is good. It's inside a Nordstrom at the mall. So, it's a good spot in between shopping errands and seeing a movie at the AMC. They have a happy hour and a bar. They share pretty much the same menu as Cafe Verde at Century City & The Grove, which is blocks from me, but I prefer this location and they have French Onion soup which the others don't.“

“Yes and No. Dinner here while at the hotel. My husband’s Alfredo was great. My braised short rib risotto was good, but the risotto part was way too salty and the chunks of mushrooms were extremely tough. We also had a cheese board that contained two (was supposed to be three) boring cheeses in tiny chunks, so hardly a cheeseboard two people could share. Also had super spicy chutney (yikes), a spicy mustard and some sliced baguette and hard crackers. Not much to it that was quality or would help a hungry visitor.“

“We just tried MiYork for the first time last night but it won't be our last. The store smelled amazing as soon as I walked in. I ordered a meatball sub, a spicy chicken sandwich and French fries. Everything was so tasty and still hot when I got home. We cannot wait to try all the other items. Very friendly service and it didn't take long at all for my order.“

“I met my mom here for lunch and sat in the bar area. Andrea and TJ were great and the food was delicious!“

“This has become my favorite restaurant. The food is outstanding.“

“One of the best ever“

“Prime 29 never disappoints! The wine dinner was exceptional—every course was thoughtfully prepared and paired perfectly. The hospitality was outstanding from start to finish, and the entire staff made for a memorable evening. A special thank you to the General Manager for providing such a welcoming experience and ensuring everything ran flawlessly. Looking forward to the next event!“

“My daughter-in-law brought me here for my first with my granddaughters. The whipped feta appetizer was great! Addictively salty, sweet, and spicy with the perfect bread on the side. The kids menu ice cream sundae was the perfect finish!“

“I had a great experience at Anna's House in Milford today with 2 of my friends. The atmosphere was bright and comfortable, the food was delicious and the service was fantastic! Madeleine was our server and she was friendly, fun and attentive. We will definitely return and recommend Anna's House!“

“Thank you, Paige C., for the wonderful service you provided us tonight. We were celebrating 2 birthdays and you were a great server. Your timing was terrific and we had a really nice time. The meals were delicious and we thank the kitchen staff for providing them. Thank you to the kind gentleman who delivered them to our table. The warm chocolate chip cookies were better than we could have ever expected, really gooey and absolutely fabulous. The sparklers were a fun addition. We all appreciated your expertise at your craft. You did an amazing job and really contributed to a wonderful evening. Thank you so much!“

“Great food! Come here often. Staff is very friendly and make you feel welcome. The gentlemen in the kitchen know what they're doing, some experience going on there! Their Reuben is fantastic, and their breakfasts too! Very generous portions.“

“Our servers name is Maddie. She did a great job providing awesome service. More impressive, seemed like this restaurant was shortstaffed tonight even so Maddie did a great job. Food came out quickly and was excellent. Staff did a great job.“

“Good Breakfast. Good service and appreciate their efforts“

“I like many of you, like using the review score when making purchase decisions. I never just look at the score. I look for the number of reviews and I try to find helpful reviews to give me more incite into what I may be getting into. My wife works in a business where the reviews really matter for bringing in new customers. She often talks about the long-time customers who keep returning but have never left a review. Those are really the voices that should matter more to people who want an honest review of the company they are looking into. Unfortunately, even though I like looking at reviews, I seldom leave one unless I'm very satisfied with the company or really disappointed. In both cases, I leave my emotions aside and tell things as I experience them. This means that if everything wasn't perfect, I don't ding them for minor stuff. I give people the benefit of the doubt because we all have those days when we aren't at our best. When I read bad reviews about restaurants that I frequent often, I wonder about the person leaving the review. I feel that they are either competitors with malicious intent, someone who didn't try to listen to resolve whatever issues they perceived to be happening, or simply someone who's looking for a reason and is too hard to please in the first place. So with all that out of the way, let me get to the Lim's Star review. I love Chinese food and it's one of the first things I looked for locally when I bought my house 10 years ago. There are several in what I would consider my drivable area. Lim's Star is in my top 5 or higher depending on what dish I'm looking for. 10 years means I've been coming there since before the current owner. Do I miss the dinner rolls? Not really, since I get better quality food and personalization of meals on request. The new owner knows us on sight and remembers what we like to order. He even allows us to modify the ingredients to our liking. He is very friendly and will engage in small talk to get to know his customers better. We eat at or buy takeout from Lim's Star at least once a month, sometimes more. Has everything always been perfect? No, but I really can't recall the last time I was dissatisfied with my order or service. Based on my long review, I'm hoping you can tell I have had many enjoyable meals from and experiences with Lim's Star. Seriously! If you are on the fence or willing to try something new in your area, start with a dish you know to compare. I doubt you will be disappointed in your comparison. Mark J.“

“Best food and drinks in Milford, by far. Consistent food and service. The specials are always worthy. Prompt service.The owner and manager always chat with you and assure everything is great. Tables outside and in back for those killer Michigan days. Dog friendly. Great breakfast on weekends. Glad we have this gem in Milford“

“I rarely write reviews but I want this restaurant to never go away. Go there, spend your money, you won't be upset. Comfortable restaurant, fantastic staff, and amazing food! We ordered appetizers, lunch, and take out for dinner. We got the Reuben Spring Rolls, Pretzel Sticks, Monte Cristo and the Bourbon Burger with Sweet Potato Fries, all delicious! The Mushroom Soup and Beef Stew are the best I've ever had!“

“Best restaurant around with the great food! Breakfast is my favorite there!“

“Supernatural is pretty amazing! The staff are really cool, friendly, and did I say cool?! Seriously, I have been going to Supernatural for a little over 8 months (I never knew it existed before then) but I am glad I made that first visit!! The food is great, the beer is amazing!! Shadow Realm is one of my favorites (Oatmeal Stout) and being British by birth, trust me when I say I'm a bit picky when it comes to beer. These guys have it nailed. BTW... Li'l Nicky... You rock! I just tried the Ginger Jalapeno brew that you made me for my birthday and that stuff should be on tap... hopefully it will someday soon! Keep doing what you do guys!! You can bet I'll be back again... and again... and again!!“

“Love the food & service here“

“you go there you're family...“

“Stopped in yesterday and had a beer and some lunch. The new owners were friendly and efficient. I will definitely be back.“

“This is the finest restaurant that I have been to in Michigan. The service is excellent, and the food is amazing. The Chef Maddi is extremely talented. Our server has been Ken who is ver professional and friendly.“

“We had a celebration of life event for my mother-in-law this weekend at Fiamma. I had never been there or even seen it because I love out of state.
The space (main dining room) was gorgeous. The food was delicious and I cannot say enough great things about the wait staff. I was so pleased with everything and cannot recommend them enough!“

“My wife and I stumbled across this nice little pizzeria in downtown Northville. The pizza tasted like it was made in Italy. We had the Homey Badger. We also had their Italian sausage meat balls for appetizers. The staff are very nice setting the tone for a nice atmosphere.“

“The food is most delicious but the service is truly EXCELLENT!! I met a long time friend here I hadn't seen in over 20 years. My brother suggested this place and I'm glad he did. The food was prompt and the service professional and kind. I cannot remember the young lady's name that served us but I fell in love with her. Now I'm back and once again the atmosphere is warm, the food is delicious and the service impeccable.“

“I would recommend going to the village grill. I went there to eat and I was greeted by a wonderful host, she had a very positive attitude and was very kind towards me. I would recommend this restaurant.“

“Our server Chris was spot on. From the moment we were seated he made us feel special. I ended up ordering the bang bang shrimp tacos which he recommended. They were so good! Our drinks were kept full the entire time. It was so nice to have a server who made sure we had everything we needed without having to ask. Can’t wait to sit on their patio once it gets warmer out.“

“Concept of the bar was great. Waitresses or lovely. Tom sandovalt want to be bartender complete jackass! Will never come back.“

“So far really good“

“The food at this place is great. I've been here many times and everything has been good. What separates this place is the service! 100% of the reason I stay here is the service from Jill and Cheri at the Ganders restaurant! I come back here nearly every week because of their customer-focused, friendly, fun personalities! Everyone needs more great employees like these two!“

“I used to stop by L George’s regularly for breakfast carryout, and the food was always good. The only reason I stopped going wasn’t because of the food—I simply decided to start cooking breakfast at home more often. Overall, it’s a solid place for breakfast.“

“I have had fantastic service and experience at this place even though I don't drink. Staff is always friendly and attentive regardless of how busy it is. I appreciate the atmosphere, and would recommend to anyone in the area who would like a good burger, or drink.“

“Best ribs on the planet!!!!!! Sauce is terrific!! Appetizers are phenomenal Atmosphere is crazy loud, but it puts a person in a very festive mood - You can't help, but feel happy“

“Make sure you have your events there as the service is amazing. Love everything about this restaurant.“

“Everything! Good food and great service! 😋“

“Best Leo's Coney Island I have ever been too! I have been to so many having lived downriver until 2022!!! Waitress were excellent, efficient and I'm so impressed with how clean the place is even the bathrooms! As one person who recommended them you could eat in bathroom it's so clean! Food was excellent!“

“Just came to say I enjoy the time I spend at the Wintergarden. The Wednesday wings are great and I get them almost EVERY Wednesday, the Sunday half off pizza is also a great deal and quite tasty. The service is usually good, but it depends on who is working. I am usually there during happy hour so my review is based on that. I have three bartenders I particulary like to see, Brei, who unfortunately for me, has branched out to better herself and is not there so often anymore, Alison, who knows my wing order by heart, and Sam who kicks butt and takes great care of me.“

“The bar service here is consistently exceptional. The staff is attentive, friendly, and efficient even during busy periods, and they do a great job keeping things moving without making you feel rushed. Even when the place is packed, they manage the crowd well and maintain a welcoming atmosphere. It’s one of the reasons I keep coming back.

That said, it’s often difficult to get a seat during peak hours, which is understandable given how popular it is. The wait is usually worth it, and I don’t mind planning around busier times or sitting at the bar when possible. One of my favorite menu items is the Alex salad, it’s always fresh, well-balanced, and consistently excellent. Overall, it’s a great spot with reliable service and standout food.

The only reason for four stars is I feel the prices are a bit high. Just a tad.“

“Was excited to try for the first time. Got three meals and some extra sides. Got home to incorrect order but went back and was given the correct order free of charge. They were attentive. Wasn’t thrilled with the food but restaurant looked clean and the whole team stayed busy working on orders. Mix ups happen. Glad they corrected it :)“
