    The food was fantastic. We were a party of four and had the Saganaki to start, soup of the day which was tomato basil, the salmon dinner, the Louie burger, 2 pork chop dinners, and the best tiramisu! Service was fabulous and the wine list was very reasonable. Definitely plan to come back!

    Our server, Oliver, was excellent. A bit disappointed in the food; the burger and the steak bites were overcooked. The Albanian salad was ok; the Saganaki was excellent. The location of this restaurant is wonderful if you're thinking of going before a game at Comerica or Ford Field.

    My experience was fine, only issue we had was that the air was on Blast. For a 60 degree day it was warmer outside, me and my Fiancée were freezing. Literally

    The food and service is wonderful! We like how the downstairs area, has more of a bar feel, and the upstairs has more of an intimate dining area. We continue to recommend this place to others
