    My opinion. The food here is to die for. You get more than your money's worth. It's always delicious. I highly recommend this place.

    I've only ever been for breakfast. While the food and prices are great the service is awful. They're always understaffed.

    I ordered through GH (8/27/26) and it came fast, I am pretty close by, so the food was still hot…read more The order was Fried Chicken, Cheese Grits, Collards, biscuit. The fried chicken was phenomenal, it came with hot honey, and that took it over the top. It was juicy and crispy and the hot honey was the best I have tasted. Chef's kiss! The grits were good and had a little spice to them that I appreciated and the biscuit was crumbly and buttery in a non-greasy way, yummy! However, the collards were the worst greens I have ever tasted in my life. I'm sorry y'all, I don't know what happened to the person who cooked those greens were bad. There was not a bit seasoning! I couldn't even re-do them at home, they were so bad, I COULDN'T EAT THEM. I was so shocked because everything else was so good! I will absolutely order food from them again, but I'm never ordering those greens again!

    We came here around 10pm on a Friday night after a very long day. It wasn't packed but there were…read morequite a few groups eating there. We sat at the bar to speed the food along because we were hungry. The bartender, Tristan, was nice and accommodating. I had the Fried Chicken BLT. Ya'll! This was an excellent sandwich. The tomato and lettuce was so fresh and the chicken was so well seasoned. It was absolutely delicious. The perfect sandwich. I'd go back for another one right now but will definitely be returning to this restaurant for that sandwich next time I'm in Detroit.

    Nice atmosphere and friendly staff…read more Got the strawberry mule, it was good, more heavy on the ginger than I expected, but not bad. I like the kale salad, but wish they put less dressing on it. The salmon on the special menu was great, cook with shrimp, and the creamy sauce was very lovely. It's probably the best salmon I had in a while. Chicken parmigiano was good too. We enjoyed the Tiramisu as well. The floor was very sticky and slippery though, I felt I had to be very careful to not to fall.

    This was my first visit to Pastaio, though my wife and daughter had eaten here once before and…read morehighly recommended it for a special occasion. We were celebrating a birthday, so we decided to pull out all the stops -- and I'm really glad we did. I'll say right up front that the prices are a little higher than what I would normally spend on a meal, but honestly, it was absolutely worth it. They started us off with garlic bread that was incredibly delicious, and from there the experience only got better. Our server, Andrew, was fantastic. He mentioned that they might have been a little short-handed and apologized that he felt he couldn't be as attentive as he normally would be, but honestly, we never would have known. He did an excellent job keeping our water glasses full and making sure we were taken care of throughout the evening. At our table, we ordered the Chicken al Pastaio, Spaghetti Carbonara, Gnocchi Romana, and I had the Chicken Parmigiano. Every dish was excellent. I sampled a few bites from the other plates and genuinely enjoyed all of them. The real highlight for me, though, was the Beggar's Purse appetizer. It was pasta filled with goat cheese and pear, and it was absolutely divine. I can completely understand why they also offer it as a main course because I could have happily eaten an entire plate of it. For dessert, we shared cheesecake and tiramisu. The cheesecake was more traditional than what you'd typically get at places like The Cheesecake Factory, which caught me a little off guard at first, but it was still excellent. The tiramisu was also delicious, and we all got a good laugh when one of our guests accidentally inhaled a little cocoa powder off the top and started coughing and sneezing at the table. It honestly just added to the fun of the evening. At the end of the night, nothing we ordered disappointed, the service was wonderful, and it turned out to be a perfect place to celebrate a special occasion. We'll definitely be back.

    At Coriander, you might do a double take and wonder if you're actually in Detroit. I visited…read morerecently for a special event and was charmed at the location on the water, at the whimsical decor, and the social media-ready presentation of the food. I never knew about the canal district of Detroit, but the vibe feels like a vacation in Florida instead of the middle of the Midwest. Coriander ups that vacation vibe with bright paint, plenty of outdoor seating, and beautiful decor. All of our food tastes so fresh, and I loved the additions of things like edible flowers on the yogurt that we had with our parfaits. Service was appropriately attentive for a large group, and it never felt intrusive into our private event. I'll look forward to coming back sometime soon for another afternoon that feels miles away from everyday life!

    Reserved an inside patio table for lunch on a Sunday afternoon. Parking in the lot and up and down…read morethe little street was full. We ended up barely squeezing into a circle space over the canal bridge and hoofing it on over to the space. The restaurant was cavernous, near full of patrons, and very loud. Our kind, young server had difficulty hearing our requests over the din. My companion enjoyed the Burnt Lemonade mocktail. I tried a glass of "Left Foot Charlie Blaufrankish" red wine. Not recommended. it was a $16, five ounce(?!) pour that tasted like sour, dark cherry vinaigrette. I ordered the Grilled Walleye. It was beautifully plated aside the cucumber salad and quinoa serving, but it tasted near flavorless, and lacked seasoning. Unfortunate at a $35 price point. My companion was disappointed in the overly-salted Pork Kapow dish he had ordered as well. We did agree however, the Chocolate Tahini Brownie was interesting, fudge-like in texture, and something to try for chocolate-lovers. Maybe it was an off day for the chef, and maybe the beverage manager left the wine opened for too long, but our experience was less than stellar today. It's a righteous concept placed in an area steeped in history and uniqueness, but the food in particular still had to hit the mark.

The portions are good, the atmosphere is nice, and the service has always been friendly and quick. Definitely one of my go-to brunch spots and I'll keep coming back.

Lattes: The bonfire latte (special) had a strong espresso flavor, but it became sweeter as the marshmallows melted. I enjoyed this more than the lavender iced latte (special), though that ultimately came down to personal preference. Savory Breakfast Options: The triple triple omelette (regular menu item) is one of my favorite local omelettes, featuring three meats and three cheeses. The components of the sweet potato and pork belly hash (special) complimented each other nicely. It was served with house-made salsa verde and hot sauce. Sweet Breakfast Options: The campfire s'mores French toast (regular menu item) was rich and filling. The chicken and French toast (special) featured double-battered chicken tenders alongside Captain Crunch-encrusted challah French toast. Between the two, I preferred the chicken and French toast. The cinnamon swirl pancakes (regular menu item) are a classic dish here, and can be ordered as an entrée or a smaller side. Lunch Options: The birria tacos (special) were tasty, but a bit spicier than expected. Similarly, the Nashville hot chicken sandwich (special) definitely packed some heat. The chicken was sauced rather than coated in a dry rub. While I'm typically not a fan of chicken sandwiches that feature tenders instead of fillets, the size and quality of the tenders made this one work. The fries it came with had a fluffy interior and were lightly seasoned. Jagged Fork's variety and consistency over the years has kept me coming back. I often opt for the specials, but that's not a knock on the regular menu items. I'll be back to try more of the house favorites and new seasonal specials.
