The food was cold when it came out. Wasn’t told they were out of mayo for my sandwich prior to ordering. Ordered a mixed drink waited over 20 min no drink and then finally asked the server and waited another 5 min to be brought the wrong drink. Was very disappointed.

We were extremely disappointed. My guest never received his food. My food came and the buffalo Mac and cheese was not good. The macaroni had a weird “lighter fluid taste “. I had to search for a waitress for silverware. We never got refills on our waters. I briefly spoke to the manager who never returned with the other entree. We left. Thankfully, the gentleman at the front door took care of our bill. This was my third visit there. My first two visits were awesome. Something has changed drastically. The service was horrid.

We made reservations for my daughter’s 21st birthday, which I noted on the reservations. We were headed to the Tiger game after. M daughter was so excited to have the prime rib and sweet potato fries! We were seated and we went to the restroom which did not have paper towel available. There were not any other customers in the restaurant , which was strange before a game. We waited forever for our server to come and take our order. When my daughter ordered the waitress said they don’t have the prime rib, or steak tips, or sweet potato fries, or spinach artichoke dip and a couple of other things!!!! I felt horrible for my daughter and they did not do anything to make it right. They did not acknowledge her birthday and the food was subpar and cost a ton! Very disappointed and will not be back!

Well, we had reservations for Movie & Popcorn night. However, we were not in they system for a reservation, so we were not able to experience this restaurant. That was surprising to me because we always book through the OpenTable App and have never had any problems before. We may return to get the full experience. The staff was not apologetic about it either

The atmosphere was just ok and the food quality did not align with the price. I think it is overpriced.

We came for dinner at 6:30. The music was very loud. My friends and I couldn’t have a conversation. I think it did get turned down a little at one point. The drinks were delicious (Pink Starburst Martini 😋) and the food was very good. I got the mini sliders and truffle fries.

Don’t go here, they gave up our table before the grace period to someone who bribed the hostess. When finally seated we waited 30 minutes for a drink and got plastic silverware for our meal. So many nice places in Detroit, skip this one.

We had a 4pm reservation, first round of drinks took over 30 minutes to arrive - we didn’t see our server that entire time and had to locate her to order food. That took another hour. We watched tables that sat 45-60 minutes after us get drinks AND food before we did. We figured out it was the server. The other servers were hustling and ours was MIA!! Overall would not go back because the food was sub-par and service was horrible. The fact that it’s a mandatory 20% gratuity was also annoying because it felt that the server didn’t really care cuz they’ll get the tip anyhow.
