    What a gem! Our experience could not have been better. Our service was very attentive, and between the four of us choosing from different items on the menu we all loved everything!! Normally that does not happen. The two salads for the table both had wonderful flavors with such a nice variety of items in them. Our apps, dinner entreés and desserts were all just as exciting and yummy!! And the venue is charming, and almost a contemporary Victorian feel. We will definitely go back!

    Amazing !!!! We ate the menu and there was nothing that we didn’t have that wasn’t good. The service was amazing and helpful with food selection. The ambiance was very cozy but classy.

    Our server, Claire, was exceptional. We were dining before a 7:00 show at the Fox so we’re on a somewhat tight schedule. She accommodated our needs. The meal was great. One of the best, creative meals we’ve had in Detroit in a long time.

    Love the ambiance and the food. Even when they were busy for a brunch on a tailgate Sunday, service was prompt and food was delicious. Great destination restaurant in the city!

    We ordered the duck over waffles that came with a sunny side egg. The egg was basically raw and the wait staff never came back to see how we were enjoying the food. By the time a wait staff individual asked how the food was, we explained the egg issue, but had eaten the duck and waffle. The wait staff didn't seem to care. When they brought us the bill, they suggested we come back to have a better egg.

    Very creative Alsatian dinner. We enjoyed the commentary between each course. Fantastic use of Alsace ingeredients sourced locally, and the wine pairing was spot on! Service was generous and friendly. We had a great evening. See you all soon.

    We had a great experience, tonight and consistently the few times we've been here. Every dish is amazing- the duck condfit, smash burger, steak frites, brussel sprouts and mushroom gratin. The oysters came with the cutest droppers of mignonett and hot sauce. The drinks and service were also amazing, and the free parking across the street is a bonus. Beautiful inside, and hostess was the sweetest.
