We ended up with calamari, scallops, gnudi, and trilece for dessert. This place was one of the best parts of our trip and we're excited to return. The only thing better than your food is your staff.“

“Great food, inventive cocktails, and friendly, knowledgeable service. One of the very best restaurants in Detroit for over a decade.“

“My wife and I recently had dinner at Lumen Detroit and overall it was a great experience. The first thing that stands out is the design! The space is gorgeous, with an open, modern feel and big windows that make it perfect for both daytime and evening dining. The atmosphere is lively and stylish. The service was friendly and attentive without being overbearing, I tried the crab cakes and everythingbagel wings for the apps and the lumen burger with truffle fries which was cooked beautifully with full of flavor and the presentation and taste was excellent! Drinks were really good for the occasion.. If you're looking for a stylish spot downtown with good food and a great vibe, Lumen is worth a visit.“

“One of the best steaks I've ever had!! Was cooked perfect. The view was the best part of this restaurant though by far!! Have to get a window seat or it defeats the purpose of going! Did not release the amount of spiders so high up on the outside of the glass😳“

“Best of the best In Detroit!!! ⭐️ 🌭 Service is always top notch!!! Definitely will always be my go to spot! You are not just a customer at Duly’s, you feel like a part of the community! This is a must try spot for everyone, AMAZING 🌭! Breakfast looks fantastic as well! 🌟“

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

“We came to The Whitney for an early birthday dinner for my husband. I cannot say enough positive things about our experience there! The staff went above and beyond my expectations. The food was amazing and cost was much less than I would have expected for the caliber and presentation of our meals and dessert. For all of you paranormal afficionados, their Ghost Bar is a must. The owners of The Whitney have done so much to preserve this amazing estate in Detroit without any funding assistance from the government or grants. Please consider supporting them by being a patron the next time you are in Detroit.“

“The mushroom dumplings and roasted bone marrow were a spectacular story of flavor with every bite. Micheal the server was fun and had a cool shirt. The place itself is lovely and well thought out from the sustainable menu to the design - we’ll be back!“

“My wife and I dropped in for lunch on a quiet afternoon to try the restaurant out; it had been quite a while since we had been here. My wife had a great fish sandwich. She reported that it was light, flaky, and crispy - and not at all greasy. I tried the Buffalo chicken burger. Excellent - it was tender and not overcooked, and with just the right amount of Buffalo sauce, not overwhelmingly spicy but flavorful. And our server was friendly and there when we needed her for service.“

“Over a 10/10 experience! Came here after graduating college with 4 of my family members. Chris was a great server and gave GREAT recommendations for a family styled dinner. The shrimp tempura rolls were AMAZING, highly recommend the chips and dip as well as the chicken schnitzel!!
I will definitely be back!“

“My husband and I love this place , been here twice and great food, servers , atmosphere. Just a wonderful place .“

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

“This is home. The heart of the Eastern Market since I was a little girl. This place and Mike's are pillars for Detroit classics. Service is always A1. My mom always gets their breakfast which they give ginormous portions and I either get a corned beef sandwich or a coney and chili cheese fries. They dont miss!“

“I got the small spaghetti & meatballs as well as the spaghetti sandwich Eminem's way. Food was DELICIOUS!! Absolutely worth the price! The small came with 3 big meatballs & loaded with grated cheese. It really was ahige portion for a small. The sandwich was also soooooo good even as leftovers!!!! The bad.... I waited like 15+ mins in the rain to order. I walked inside half way through the wait to look for someone, never found anyone. Went back outside & waited with 4 more people & no one ever came so after 15+ mins, I went upstairs to the store & asked for help. The girl working found the cook (who also takes the orders) & just happened to be on lunch. I wouldn't have minded waiting if there would've been a little 30 min break sign up or something. Honestly it seemed like he either hated his job or he's definitely overworked & maybe the only employee besides the girl upstairs Even though customer service was not good, the food was amazing & I'll definitely eat there again next time I'm in town.“

“I loved the vegan avocado BLT 😋“

“Our server Emily was very attentive, warm and welcoming. She made us feel very comfortable. We highly recommend the rueben sandwich and THE STUFFED SQUASH! Hats off to the chef and Emily. Thank you for a wonderful experience. We will be back.“

“Great bloody’s -you won’t b disappointed“

“If Katrell (Pineapple Daddy) wasn't here...I wouldn't make it a mandatory location. He makes sure my party is happy and that everything is everything. The food is excellent and the service is as well!“

“The shakes were amazing! The atmosphere was so cute! I'm so glad we had the chance to check this place! We will definitely recommend it to anyone we know who will be in the area. My only complaint was the staff could be a little more welcoming and enthusiastic. The lady at the door was on her phone on a facetime call when we came in (which she did appologize for but didn't get off the phone) and the waitress just seemed short and not really happy. She wasn't rude and got our order right, so I still gave it 5 stars. It just seemed with the atmosphere that they would be a little bubblier and more enthusiastic. But I would still definitely come there again. I still gave 5 stars for service because maybe it was an off day and like I said they didn't mess our order up and were quick.“

“The food is amazing. Esp the sweet chili wings. I had the "Say Less" drink. Raspberry, lemonade and d'usse. Strong but good. Shotgun shrimp was similar to boom boom but less saucy. Tasty! Service was the winner. Hostess was the best. attentive and kind. Friendly and fast service. Lots of parking and seating. Cool decor. Local art & reference. Def be back.“

“The food is amazing and the service was even better! Ask for Myka - - she’s sweet, had all the best info in the menu, and made the experience phenomenal!“

“Had a great time at East Side Mario’s. Wonderful atmosphere and food was excellent. Welcoming for everyone and a special place to spend time. I loved it here. My waitress Melissa was amazing and always on top of refilling water, bread, salad. Would definitely recommend to friends.“

“Great food, fun atmosphere, and everyone who works there is very polite!“

“A Perfect Start Before the Ballgame

Stopped in before a game at Comerica, and it was a fantastic way to kick off the day. Though the place was short-staffed, the service didn’t miss a beat. Our waitress and the busser were both clearly busy, but they still delivered outstanding service. The coffee was hot with quick refills, and our food came out fast, fresh, and solid all around. Pricing was more than fair for the quality and portion sizes. I’ll definitely be back next time I’m in town!“

“I recommend the meat lover's potato. it was loaded with pepperoni,sausage, bacon and I believe ham. also there was a garlic butter on it that was delicious.“

“Delicious, fresh sandwich. I got the atomic turkey sandwich and it was filling. I couldn’t finish that and the soup. The soup was just good. The sandwich was for sure the star of the show. Quite a bit of seating, different snack and drink options (bottled or canned - no fountain)“

“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.“

“The food and service were excellent! I got the salmon bowl and the flavor was fantastic. We went for my daughter’s birthday and she got an awesome birthday ice cream with a giant sparkler in it!“

“After reading several reviews, it left me hesitant about going to Iridescene, however I'm glad that I did not let that deter me. Everything we ordered, from the wine and dine menu was delicious. The chicken breast was tender enough to cut with a fork. And the mashed potatoes were very tasty and well seasoned. I would recommend this place.“

“My father, Eddie Mesrey (born in Detroit | 1932–1980), grew up in the house that was once attached to Zell’s. He and his brother, George Mesrey (1930–1978), helped their uncle Michael Mesrey (born in Damascus, Syria | 1899–1993) run the little market that previously occupied this space (circa 1930s – 1960s).Back in the day it was known as Little Mike’s Market.Here’s my great-Uncle Mike and an unidentified E&B spokesmodel inside the market at Charlevoix and Seyburn, circa 1960.“

“My friend and I went out to eat today on the 4th! Absolutely amazing service, wonderful environment, and super cool signs! My favorite, “MEN LIE”, because ain’t that the truth. Our server, Shonia, amazing! Food was great, absolutely delicious.“

“The atmosphere was approximately 5 farts per square foot“

“A premium Ruben and roast beef! 5 stars!“

“I recently tried the Big Texan Cheesesteak and it was an absolute must-try! Bursting with flavor and generously portioned, it was worth every penny. The shop itself is charming and inviting. I also had the popcorn chicken and cauliflower bites, and they were both delicious! I can't wait to go back and try more items from their menu. Highly recommend this place for anyone looking for great food!“

““I had an excellent experience at Harvey’s! The food was fresh, delicious, and served exactly how I wanted it. I loved being able to customize my burger with so many topping options—everything was super fresh. The staff was friendly, efficient, and the service was quick even during a busy time. The restaurant had a welcoming atmosphere. Harvey’s has definitely become my go-to spot for a satisfying burger and fries. Highly recommend!”

Vegetarian options: Veggie burger 🍔“

“Views! Views! And Views!The Detroit Renaissance Center is my favorite building ever! It was love at first site when I saw the venue space of 42° North? The staff were amazing! They addressed all our needs and wants. Our guests raved about the hors d'oeuvres and dinner that Chef Dobie and his staff provided...absolutely delicious! The room suites were large enough for hair and makeup! Truly the best day ever! ?“

“My boyfriend and I had a memorable romantic date while experiencing the Chef Tasting at the Ambassador Golf Club Tuscan Grill. After describing our preferred palate to Chef Dan, he prepared the best meal we have ever had. Our waitress was more than hospitable and I would HIGHLY RECOMMEND the Chef’s tasting to anyone looking for a romantic setting and an elegant dinner.“

“I ordered the turkey burger deluxe. It was the best I've had from a coney island. My son ordered the double cheeseburger with chili cheese fries. He said it was great. The presentation was very good and appetizing. I am a frequent customer. I like it“

“Love Harvey’s and Swiss Chalet. The food is the best. The only thing missing is what happened to the days of good old customer service. I hate hearing what can I get you? When I pull up to the drive thru speaker and having a debit machine thrust at me when I get to the window with no talking.

Parking: All good“

“They serve lunch at our hospital and the brisket is to die for! Sauce has an amazing kick of sweet and savory in every bite. Definitely recommend.“

“The best corn beef eggrolls I’ve ever had“

“Exquisite. The flavors. The freshness. The presentation. It was a real treat. Staff was patient and attentive.“
