I was visiting from out of town and was told a new restaurant had opened in DTW. We decided to give them a try on a Friday evening around 7pm.
First thing we noticed when we arrived was they were still a little unorganized and awkward when seating us. Once seated the filling of our waters was also awkward... chalk that up to the first week of being opened. We then noticed the music was uncomfortably loud. We were having a difficult time having a conversation. We asked for the volume to be reduced which they did, and everything ran smooth after that.
They have an extensive cocktail list and a decent craft beer selection. The beer list is missing prices and the waitress couldn't tell me how much the beers were?...
The food is what saved this place.
I had the short rib stuffed shells. They were absolutely hearty, filling and tasty. My only qualm was the temperature when it arrived was not as warm as I would have hoped. Tasty none the less.
My wife had the ravioli which was the show stopper. Super delicious. The sundries tomatoes with the truffle oil was amazing.
My father had the burger which I almost ordered and I am glad I did not. It was tasty and had so much potential... but the overcooked the hell out of this thing. He asked for medium rare and got Alamo well done. No pink at all, no juiciness. Shame, but like I said. It has the potential.
For the starter we had the beef cheek toast. Very tasty and we were happy with it.
My wife also had the chowder which was very filling as well.
This place has great potential and a lot of these issues are due to how new they were. I am confident they will iron the kinks out which is why I give 4/5 stars
