Fantastic place for dinner. Elegant location, good options, live music was great. Margaritas and food were delicious but I wish I got a little more for what I paid. Overall a good experience.

The restaurant itself has a good vibe and great food. We had the steak tips, flatbread, and ravioli. The sausage ravioli was to die for. Great service and we were checked on multiple times. A+ We were really offput arriving to the restaurant being greeted by the neighboring plaza's security. There appears to be a parking dispute going on and the restaurant only had a few parking spots on site. We were done with dinner and waited about 15 minutes for the understaffed valet. It was so congested in this tiny parking lot it was very off-putting.
The food was great and Paris, our server, was great. She was very responsive and definitely had such a happy personality. We had 6 of us and everyone said it was fun. The only reason it is a 4 star is because it feels a little mixed on atmosphere. The music is trying to be trendy but just seems a bit off with the look of the restaurant. Not terrible in any way just a bit different. It was interesting to see the waves of patrons... when we got there at 7 it was nearly full but by 8:15 it was nearly empty and then by time we left at 9 it was packed again. Overall, definitely recommend and we will be coming back again. Think it has a good vibe and the food (spicy rigatoni, burger and salmon) was perfectly prepared.

I am so happy we stumbled onto this restaurant! Super cool atmosphere, GREAT food and cocktails, and EXCELLENT service. We will be back, and soon.
The redesign and new management are great. The sliders, burgers, and chicken sandwich are amazing. The drinks are fantastic. Try the banana whiskey infusion. Tastes like banana juice.
Went in on a Friday night. The vibe was nice. Lots of middle aged people there, so I felt right at home.Our drinks were good (I ordered Nectar of the Gods), and the hosts and servers were friendly.Unfortunately, my chicken sandwich lacked flavor. The coleslaw had no flavor whatsoever. I asked for mayo, which improved it a bit, but I would not order that dish again. The shoestring fries were tasty.

The food is always excellent. I really enjoy the salmon and lemon chicken. The crème brûlée cheesecake is delicious! Our waitress Kelly was excellent! The music is too loud as the restaurant is already loud due to being busy. It's a difficult place to have a conversation as it is difficult to hear. I would recommend this restaurant but would caution on the noise level.
Best restaurant in Southeast Michigan for many reasons. They serve high end food till 12 open till 1am. The cheesecake is like no other we start with the cheese cake then finish with the cheesecake.

I must say this place does it right the food the service has always been great every time, the seasonal ambiance changes are also a great touch to the atmosphere. I've been coming here with friends countless times to enjoy dinner and drinks. The burger, steak tip and calamari has always been a favorite and a go to, done right every time. Natalia B. the server always does a great job serving the table and gives out great recommendations and new updates on the menu. Overall it's a great place to eat or to go grab a drink.

Absolutely STILL our favorite restaurant! The food is amazing. Order the spicy rigatoni and you'll never order anything else. 3 Desserts and 5 drinks, appetizer and meals, less than $150! Can't beat the service we got from Paris. She was right there for every order, checking up on us throughout. We cannot find a better restaurant in the metro Detroit area. Simply amazing!
I've been here a few times but never took time to review. The service we received this past weekend was wonderful and shout-out for our server Adam who was awesome with his recommendations for our guests.We opted for an RSVP yesterday on Superbowl Sunday in lieu of not watching a Lions championship. My guests have never been to West End so I decided to order some favorites and do a heavy appetizer type dinner. We started with some very fresh coffee with Baileys and La French Kiss drink. I had ordered the Mykonos flatbread, brussels sprouts, truffle fries, street corn and the trio board to start. They came out fairly quick, not too fast and not too slow. i then opted in for a 2nd order of the Mykonos flatbread, added a spicy rigatoni w/o sausage and a beet salad for the table. It wasn't until after I realized everything ordered was vegetarian (one guest is a vegetarian) and we were all loving everything. If you are a vegetarian, West End has TONS of options for your!We ate everything! Food was superb, service was excellent and everyone went home full. Thank you West End!
