They charge $11.50 for a 20 oz bottle of water! We have $44 in water. The food was delicious, albeit a bit salty.

What a great new find in Detroit! Recommended by others in the industry and it did not disappoint. Great happy hour deals, oysters fresh and chowder eats like a stew. Yummy. Lobster roll fresh and bread delicate. Loved it will be back.

Nice to have valet option, hostess greeted and sat us promptly. We started with bread service, shrimp and burrata. All good but not remarkable. The Scallops were remarkable. Unique presentation that I would think is a signature item. NY Strip was above average. Dessert was a deconstructed cannoli which was small but tasty. I recommend trying this place.
