The food was absolutely great but it was very noisy. They were slammed when we were there but our waiter was doing his best to serve us.

I had a blast for my birthday brunch! The food was good, the server was great and the atmosphere was just what I needed to start my birthday weekend off right in Detroit. I would definitely like to visit again!

Service was a bit slow at the beginning due to short staffing but overall it’s a great restaurant. Food came out hot and fast, and drinks were great as well.

AMAZING service and food. The food felt homemade and high-end at the same time. Seasoned to perfection. Try their brunch - shrimp and grits or chicken and French toast. Also loved the banana cheesecake dessert. New favorite spot in Detroit hands down.
