Kudos to Sam and the entire staff for the gracious, knowledgable, professional service. The food timing was paced out perfectly, Sam made terrific menu recommendations and we did not feel rushed at all. They encourage ordering several plates to share. We tried the miso carrots, the walleye, and the summer pea pasta. All of the plates were artfully decorated and I loved all the combos of flavors and textures. For dessert, we could not pass up the banana cake. Similar flavor to banana bread, with some kind of magical caramel frosting and crunchy almonds. Chartreuse is very deserving of all of those Best of Detroit awards. read more

We were Welcomed by Perry, who had Chartreuse slacks on. Our party of 8 arrived about an hour ahead of our Reservation...we were told no problem We were seated in a relaxed area and little tables were brought to serve us water. We were impressed as the table we were to have was extremely and thoroughly cleaned I would say these are small plates, AMAZING taste and Texture.... unfortunately for me I stepped away from the table and the Bread Service was basically devoured other than 1 small piece before I could have some that's how good it was. The setting the service the desire to give us an event of Tasty Food was meant 1 small challenge the restrooms could have had a tad more care Oh when, my dish ( Short ribs) were tooo spicy I traded with my husband and enjoyed his vegetarian Pea dish. WONDERFUL so many ingredients merged into bursts of flavor. Perhaps with the Short Ribs mention there's a tad of heat Am I going back ABSOLUTELY so many more dishes to experience. Prepare to be Welcomed read more

A friend and I met here for dinner on a Saturday evening. We didn't have reservations but they were able to get us seats on the couch up front. Yes, they have an actual couch with a table for seating...it was a great and unique restaurant experience! We enjoyed our seating and our server was friendly and attentive even though we were up front and away from the rest of the dining tables. I believe their menu changes seasonally but they had several options that appealed to us this time! They have a full bar and mocktail options too (y'all know I love a good mocktail) so I was excited about that. We both ended up ordering the mocking bird mocktail (lemon, cinnamon, pomegranate, and orange blossom water). Our server even asked if we wanted on the rocks or straight up! I went for straight up and my friend did on the rocks and we were both so impressed with how flavorful the drinks were. I have thought about that mocktail several times since! Food wise, we ordered the bread service to share and then the Amish roasted chicken and the risotto. The chicken was huge! The sides with it were good and my friend enjoyed the chicken. The risotto was excellent - corn, mushroom, whipped red bell pepper ricotta...so delicious I ate the whole dish! The four smaller slices of bread were underwhelming for the $8 price point so I would skip that next time. Everything else was well worth it for sure though. Thank you for a great evening, Chartreuse Kitchen & Cocktails! read more

I went to college right down the street from Chartreuse and somehow never made it in, so I'm really happy I finally did! Chartreuse is such a cute date-night spot. The second you walk inside, it feels cozy and warm. The staff is knowledgeable about the menu and genuinely happy to answer questions, which always makes the experience better. The food absolutely lived up to the atmosphere, everything was delicious. I loved my pasta dish, and the rest of my group cleaned their plates too, which says a lot. Definitely worth the visit, even if it takes you a few years to get there like it did me. read more

3.5 I really liked the vibe in here and thought the food fit the ambiance perfectly. The 100% homemade aspect, down to the pop, was really cool as well. The food was decent (not anything mind blowing), but the GF alterations along with the service made up for it. read more

We returned after a great show at the Fisher Theater, and once again, we had the most wonderful dinner experience. The staff is so warm and friendly, the cocktails are some of the best in the city, and the food is just phenomenal. I love their eclectic veggie forward menu. This time, we both ordered The Last Word - I would assume their most popular cocktail - and it's absolutely perfect. We also had the smoked beet salad, which was so flavorful with the nicest hint of smoke and creamy ricotta, and was perfect to share with 2 people. My Mom ordered the veggie gnocchi dish which I'd love to go back for. The most pillowy soft gnocchi and super flavorful veggies and sauce. Delicious. I had the prawns and polenta dish, and it was so tasty and comforting; perfect texture and savory flavor. Yum! I kind of wish I ordered dessert; the chai cake sounded amazing - but that will give me a reason to visit sooner rather than later. It was packed early on a Saturday night, so definitely make reservations for the weekend. Vibey music, fun people, always a great experience. read more

Amazing food with tons of flavor in every dish. Would love to come back. Beautiful spot as well, both during the day and at night.

Came here for our anniversary dinner and it didn't disappoint! Excellent service, nice vibes (though it was quite cold inside). Food was great overall, here are the deets: - Yellow chartreuse: sweeter than green! If you like more of a bite and more anise flavor, go for green. For sweet, yellow. - Cocktails (NA as well) all seem to be solid - Twice-cooked egg: I understand why this has been on the menu since the beginning. I was sad when there was none left, but one order was good for two people. - Smoked beet salad: a favorite among what we tried. Excellent textures here. - Steak tartare: decent tartare, but the weakest dish of the meal. We were expecting traditional bao (soft bun), but it came with odd, very hard to chew fried dough cracker things. Was not a fan. - Capunesi gnocchi: yum! Loved the crispy garlic and olive additions. Very comforting dish. Know that you can add protein if you'd like! - Kobe short rib: wasn't blown away by this, but it was good! The "pastry" isn't a pastry in the traditional sense, it's kind of like cheez-it things sprinkled along for texture. - German chocolate cake: good! Kind of like a frosted brownie. We liked the candy and nuts topping. Overall a good experience! We'd return to try more of the menu, but I don't think we'd go out of our way to do it. read more

Well... the walls are certainly chartreuse! Excellent place to try various creative dishes such as quail, beet salad, striped bass with sauce/vegetable mix, and, yes, even a filet mignon. We went as a group of 4 for our anniversary. Service was friendly. We had 2 orders of bread, 2 appetizers, a vegetable dish, and 4 main courses. If you just get a main course, it isn't quite enough. Has about 20 tables either for 2 or 4 people; a few couches, and a dozen seats at the bar. Good for a special night out without super-high prices. Key point: The address is on Kirby, but the entrance is on Woodward. We got lost. read more

My husband and I dined here last Saturday for the first time and had a great experience. Reservations for the tables were full, so we were seated at the bar, which worked just fine with the casual atmosphere. The service was top-notch. My water never got less than half-full, and our server Megan was quick to answer my menu questions and to offer a recommendation when I was torn between two dishes. Every item we had was full of flavor, fresh, and just different enough to set it apart from food obtained elsewhere. We started with the delicious sourdough bread with seasonal butter that was heavenly. This was followed by a cup of squash coconut curry, which was spicy but oh-so-good, and the twice-cooked egg, whose bed of Brussel sprouts, greens, salty cheese, and shallot vinaigrette was even better than the egg itself. We chose the Kobe short ribs and the sun-dried fettuccini for our main courses. The ribs were spicy but tender, and my husband enjoyed them. The fettuccini was also very good. The dish goes beyond a simple pasta and sauce dish and instead incorporates just a bit of pine nuts, pickled ramps, spring mushrooms, roasted cauliflower, snap peas, and garlic. It sounds like a lot but they were tiny pieces that seamlessly blended into the dish--not overpowering, but just a different bite each time. I would order it again. I forgot to take pictures, but I do recommend this restaurant for a dining experience from a staff who gets it. read more

We had a great meal and a waitress that was perfect - Sat. 4/19. I mention date because I do not remember the waitress name. She was working in the front of store. Our meal included the Twice Cooked Egg Salad (5*!!!), Crab Cake, a steak dish, and more. Cocktails were unbelievable. read more

In town for a residency and performance at the Carr Center and had a few meals at Chartreuse Kitchen. The staff is friendly, service is top notch and the restaurant has a fun and inviting decor. We started with fresh bread and herbed butter and their very popular twice fried egg served over a perfectly dressed frisée salad. Absolutely delicious! Our friends ordered salads, gnudi, pork belly and the quail. We were all pleased with the food and happy with the stellar service. We'll definitely visit again when we're in Detroit! read more

This is my second visit to chartreuse. The first was a few years ago and the experience wasn't too impressive, but we gave it another try. Dinner and service here were amazing. We got a bunch of seafood dishes, and the seafood was so fresh and delicious. For apps we got French onion soup, beet salad, and crab cakes. For meals we had the branzino, the gumbo and mussels. The flavors all went together so well. Definitely a place to try when in downtown Detroit. read more

This place was my boyfriend and i's first date spot! We love coming back here for birthdays/anniversaries/ any occasion really! We love the small plate/sharing idea and tend to gravitate towards restaurants similar. This visit was for our anniversary and they went above and beyond! Our servers are always so sweet here and continue to check in on us throughout the meal! We want to come back for lunch one day for the lamb burger!! (we did try a few weeks ago and called ahead of time to make sure we would make it in time and they told us as long as we get there before 2 they would seat us, but when we arrived at 1:45 the door was locked..) upsetting we made the trip down but won't let it change our entire view of the restaurant. read more

Finishing lunch with a taste of chartreuse guaranteed our return for dinner on a different day! read more

I was quite surprised by my experience at Chartreuse. My overall take is that the food here lacks cohesion and focus. Its trying to be a lot of things but it misses the mark. We started with the bread service which was nothing special, "service" was a stretch as it was nothing more than a loaf of bread & butter with no refills. We then had the twice cooked egg, which was definitely the best dish of the night. It went downhill from there. While eating the egg, I noticed two pork chops were up at the window - I got excited and thought it must be good because others are ordering it. Next we got the fried potato salad. I view this dish more as loaded potatoes. Its a huge stretch to call this a potato salad. The dish had a ton of ingredients in it and it was confusing to eat. No bite was the same, but it didn't feel intentional for that to happen. It felt like a dish you made with all of the things you want to clear out of your fridge. Once we were done with that, our entrees were up. Turns out, the pork chop that had been sitting there for TWO of our courses was actually ours. And, you guessed it, it was cold. Rice was cold, meat was cold. Very surprising that the timing was so incredibly off. The salmon showed promise until I bit into a huge chunk of chili crisp out of nowhere and my palate went white. And I ran out of water for half the meal. We also got a gnocchi, that seriously lacked gnocchi. It was more of a veggie dish. Overall, deeply disappointed with the food, it looks really pretty but looks better than it tastes. I will say, the service was excellent. Our server was knowledgeable and made sure to explain how to eat the weird food which was helpful in trying to understand and go along with the experience. My advice: focus on simplifying. read more

Flavors to seek out! We had the crab cakes (smoked salmon, crab, whitefish with dill aoli) and Brother Nature salad for apps, and goat shank confit (w/ Israeli couscous and garlic aoli) as a main; Madagascar vanilla pudding for dessert. The crab cakes and confit were not on the menu, but waiter Noah shared them from the kitchen. Nice place for a celebration, or just if you want some REALLY good food.

Once again a fantastic time! I was thrilled that we were served by Megan again--the service was just as good this time as last. Food: BREAD SERVICE $8 housemade sourdough with seasonal butter This season's butter had cranberry in it, and I really loved the combination with the wine we had. In fact, the wine we drank was perfect with all of our food. Wine - STOLPMAN VINEYARDS 'LA CUADRILLA' Santa Barbara, CA 2022 $16/$64 BROTHER NATURE GREENS $17 Poached pear, senshu apple, aged goat cheese, pistachio, blueberries, apple cider vinaigrette This was a delicious combination! Those pears...so yummy. Megan said that it was unusual that we were able to have this salad in November because it was sourced locally and we've been having unseasonably warm weather. EGGPLANT TART $20 Charred tomato, onion, white bean purée, pickled radish, mustard greens, habanero salt, balsamic, cured egg yolk This was so flavorful--it was served cold, like a salad. I loved it! CHANTERELLE MUSHROOM RISOTTO $29 Delicata squash, celeriac, alba mushroom, cider honey, pepita, pomegranate I loved the juxtaposition of the soft risotto and the crunch of the pepita and pomegranate. BRAISED SHORT RIB $28 Sheridan acres cassoulet, parsnip, carrot, mushroom, onion, crispy shallot The short rib was fork tender. I loved the sauce. If I had any complaint about this meal, I would say that the short rib needed the sauce and it was good that it was there. We shared everything. By the time we got to dessert, we were too full for food, but we did top off the meal with the green and yellow chartreuse. They were each $10 per ounce. Overall, I loved my experience again. Chartreuse remains one of my favorites in Downtown Detroit. read more

I was in Detroit for business and did a quick survey of the restaurants in the area I was staying; Warren. So I expanded my search to Detroit and found Chartreuse on the outskirts in a trendy art district. Easy to get to and ample parking. Once I got inside I knew that I made a great decision to take a little more xtra drive. I didn't have a reservation but the hostess found me a nice spot at the bar. The bartender was cool to talk to and super helpful with drink and food recommendations. They have a nice list of specialty cocktails but I asked for a vesper which is my favorite martini. No problem at all. And perfectly prepared. I went with the twice cooked egg and man oh man there's a reason why this menu item is a permanent resident on their otherwise seasonal menu. Great spot, great food, great vibes. read more

The first callout I have to make is that the service here is absolutely incredible. I added a note that we were dining to celebrate my girlfriend's medical school residency match day, and they immediately congratulated her as we were seated and brought out complimentary mocktails as cheers. Also, as some of us didn't eat pork, they modified the menu items to avoid including it, which really showed their hospitality. Throughout the night, they were extremely attentive and got more water or cleared dishes as soon as they were finished. As for the food, they are definitely more of a shareable situation with smaller portions, although some of the main entrees are large enough to be enjoyed solo. We had a party of 3 and ended up sharing a bunch of menu items family style, and it ended up being the perfect amount of food. For starters, we ordered the bread basket, fish curry, twice cooked egg, and gobi manchurian. The twice cooked egg and the gobi manchurian were the clear standouts from that group. As the mains, we shared the lamb strip and the branzino (modified to be made without the pork vinaigrette). While the lamb was good, it was a little smaller and too fatty for my taste. The branzino was incredible, and I would 100% order that again. For dessert, we finished off with the bread pudding, and that was a delicious way to end the night. Would highly recommend checking out this restaurant! I would encourage making a reservation ahead of time to be safe and arriving a little early to find street parking. read more

First, I was expecting the side to resemble a steak house. Instead it was a lovely whimsical light and warm environment. The veggie dishes were great, the fried egg was nice, but not as good as I expected. I had the steelhead which laid on top of some beans. I believe. I was not a fan on it at all. I did love the Mocktails menu and the first Mocktails on the list, I had two of them, with a citrus yummy flavor-loved it! I would go back, but not for a serious meal maybe for a small plate and a delicious mocktail. It's a very pricey place, but the location is great (next door to the DIA) and most places are pricey now. read more

In the time I've lived away from Detroit some amazing restaurants have moved in. Chartreuse is right at the top of that list. A true farm to table restaurant, the menu changes each day with what they are able to source locally. start off with one of their unique cocktails while you decide which plates look good. All dishes are intended to share so they recommend that the table get two dishes per person. It makes it a lot of fun to sample all of the plates at the table. The food was sublime. Flavors, jumping off of the plate even in things that I would not normally find myself eating like wild boar. The staff is helpful and very attentive and makes the event that much more enjoyable. This is definitely someplace. I will be back to. read more

We had a very nice dinner here before seeing a movie at the Detroit Art Institute. There was a reasonable list of beers, wines and cocktails - I enjoyed my Mast Landing Milk Stout. Two of us had the butternut squash soup, one of the highlights of the meal. found it off-putting to be charged extra for bread and butter. Nancy had the mushroom confit, which she liked very much. Barbara had the green salad, which looked great. Two of us had the short rib, which I thought was OK but our friend Mike deemed disappointing. The masa tots were a hit as far as I was concerned but hardly anyone else at the table tried them.| We had room left for dessert so the four of us shared one of each of the three choices. The rye cake with mascarpone mousse and the vanilla pudding were outstanding; the "twinkie," an orange cake, was also good. We left both sated and satisfied: a good meal read more

My boyfriend and I wanted to treat two of his friends to a nice dinner because his furnace died when we were on vacation recently and they saved the day by coming to his house and letting in the electrician. One of his friends suggested Chartreuse, as she had been there once before and said it was fabulous. The food was indeed fabulous. Our waitress recommended about two plates per person, and so we ordered eight plates. We started with the lemon basil ricotta toast, the beet cured salmon, and the grilled vegetable Caesar salad. Both the salad and the toast were great; the salmon had nice presentation but I'm not really a seafood fan. We then had the Give and Grow mushrooms, braised lamb pappardelle, grilled broccolini, and bavette steak, plus the pork belly. Of these, all of them were good but my favorite dishes were the pork belly, which was crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, and the bavette steak. We also each ordered The Last Word cocktail, and I had The Little Lula after that; both were good but the Little Lula was a lot sweeter, which I preferred. My boyfriend and one of his friends also got the Green chartreuse, and my boyfriend got the Heavy Bend cocktail to finish the night, which he also recommended. The service was very good, but I was considering giving Chartreuse 4/5 because I did think that drinks took a long time to come to the table, as well as water refills. However, near the end of the meal, after we had ordered two of the three desserts offered, our waitress came back to the table with all three desserts, and apologized that things had been a little slow because we had arrived during their busy rush time. She also offered us all a taste of the Yellow chartreuse drink they had, on the house. This was excellent customer service and bumped up this review to five stars for me. And don't forget dessert: our friends shared the Rhubarb, which came with a mini cheesecake of sorts, and my boyfriend and I shared their homemade version of Bumpy Cake. Both were excellent - if you prefer chocolate desserts, I would go with the Bumpy Cake, but if you prefer something fruitier, I would go with the Rhubarb. As for pricing, it's definitely expensive but it's on par with other tapas places in the area. Cocktails were $13-16 (and they also have a wine list and, of course, a chartreuse list), and each tapas course ranged from $7 (bread and butter) to $41 (duck breast); the bavette steak, at $39, was our priciest dish. Overall this was an excellent experience and I hope to return at some point. There is no parking lot nearby, I believe, but we did street parking. read more

Overall, it was an okay experience. We got beef tartar, twice baked egg, heirloom tomato salad, Amish chicken and vanilla pudding for dessert. I would say tartar was the best thing. The tomato salad was good but over priced for what it is lol. Chicken and egg were mid, I know people rave about the egg but it wasn't anything out of this world. The brussels sprouts underneath were better than the egg itself. Vanilla pudding was really good! Beers were also great. I got a mojito but they didn't even muddle the basil, which I thought was odd. Wouldn't go back. read more

My wife and I tried Chartreuse for the first time and it was with mixed results (she liked it a lot, me not so much). I will say that the service was exceptional and the dinner drinks were very tasty, hence my 3 stars instead of lower. They offer shareables for the majority of the menu, so we had a few appetizers and 1 entree to split. The sourdough bread and butter appetizer was good but the crust was so hard, it could cut your mouth. The Ceviche appetizer was just OK. This is where my wife and I differed. She loved it and powered through the majority after I was finished with my 2-3 bites. For me, the best side appetizer we had was the roasted carrots. Those were very good (and wife agreed) Our main course was the Seafood Linguine, which had shrimp, mussels, as well as a thick broth. The problem for me is that the dish tasted like it was so heavy on Saffron, that I just couldn't enjoy the seafood at all. Lastly, the menu changes a lot, but when I first got there, I had anxiety over what to actually eat - the options are few and very particular. You can give them a shot if you like my pictures but we are moving onto something else. Too many options in Detroit to roll the dice again here. Again, the staff and drinks are great - it's the food I can leave behind. read more

A nearly flawless dinner from start to finish. The Mr. and I had diner post the "Van Gogh in America" exhibit at the DIA. After a friend ditched us at the last minute (I kid, she was sick), we had to change our dinner plans. Went online and saw rave reviews from my fellow Yelpers. Checked for reservation and they only had bar seating so I snagged it. Upon arrival, the host confirmed that was the only option so after a brief wait, we were ushered to the bar. Our bartender was lovely and created the most delicious mocktails. Note bar seating gets quite drafty in the winter due to its proximity to the entrance. The hubs had to wear his hat the entire time and I saw quite a few patrons wearing their coats. For starters, we shared the gyoza, burrata, and bread/butter. The bread was thick and warm with delicious butter with caramelized onions. I do wish the butter was sated but they graciously provided some on the side. The burrata was prepared quite differently than usual (olives and tomato paste vs the usual pesto) and I wasn't a fan. However, the gyoza were definitely the star of the three. Who knew beets with an asian flavor influence could taste so good? I had the most enormous pork chop served with a side of and grilled honey cornbread. The chop was cooked perfectly and the accompanying honey mustard sauce was too good and I had to ask for more. The dish, while well seasoned, felt quite dry compared to my husband's barramundi which was served with a seafood sauce and mussels that received rave reviews from him. Overall, dinner was enjoyable, all of the staff we encountered were accommodating, and the bartender rocked. I would definitely return! read more

Wow, exquisite food! It's family style so they recommend 2 to 2 1/2 dishes per person to share. We sat at the bar, which allowed us to watch the chefs in the open kitchen. Watching the chefs is very fun, and I got a peak at everything so it helped me know what to order. Excellent service! They work as a team and everyone helps out to bring you food and clear plates. Our main server was Tina and she's fantastic! Very attentive and helpful. I enjoyed a delicious glass of Syrah while I perused the menu. We started with the Brother Nature Greens salad, which contained mixed greens, poached pear, apple, raspberry, vanilla, honey, pecan, lemon, and goat cheese. I enjoyed all the flavors, especially the poached pear. We also had the bread and butter. Homemade warm bread served with a seasonal flavored butter. (I think ours had a subtle cranberry flavor) Yum! Next we had their gyoza, which was wonderful, and had a spicy beet puree underneath. The star of the night was the grass fed filet. Wow wow wow! It came with an incredible mushroom sauce. I was lapping up the extra sauce with a spoon! I couldn't get enough of it. The meat was so tender, like melt in your mouth tender. Absolute perfection. I was full but I couldn't resist their Madagascar vanilla pudding. The layered presentation was visually impressive. It came with basil syrup, blueberry, bourbon chantilly, and a rosemary cookie. The best dessert I've had in a long time. Tina even put a candle with it, in honor of my birthday. Such a special meal. I won't forget it. read more

If you're looking for a wonderful dining experience, especially for a special occasion, this spot is hard to beat. With a unique menu that changes daily with fresh ingredients, to the incredible service, to the personalized menu and card to acknowledge our anniversary -- it's all in the details why this place is such a great find. But of course the food is important and it exceeds expectations too. Tasty, flavorful and enough but not so much that you hurt afterward. My husband and I shared a farmer's salad with goat cheese and fruits on it. Then we had the smoked new potatoes. We loved both appetizers. For entrees, I had the duck. It was amazing. And my husband had the spare ribs and he almost ordered seconds of them -- he said he could eat a slab of them. So good! Very happy with everything. Can't wait to come back. read more
