Since there were 4 of us we were able to order a bunch of stuff to share and have a taste of everything (my preferred way of dining out). You put in your entire order at once and the serve will course it out so it worked out perfectly for our group! Among so many interesting dishes I think the standouts were the carrot steak and the mushroom fettuccine! But honestly everything we ordered was good! I think the steak tartare was the only thing that was slightly underwhelming; I don't think it was super flavorful. We also got the potato donuts for dessert and those were fantastic and had such a great texture. The restaurant itself was gorgeous and felt really nice and intimate without ever feeling unapproachable. Our servers were great but it definitely felt like they were understaffed since there were a few times we wanted to ask a question or order more drinks and couldn't find anyone. Overall though definitely a great experience and would love to come back!

Loved the panna cotta too :) We hosted a private event for 15 people downstairs and Rebecca was incredible to work with from start to finish. She handled everything smoothly, made sure we were comfortable, and the service was top-notch. Food came out on time and tasted great too. Also chatted with David the owner; seems like a really hands-on guy and you could tell he really cares about the food, experience and his guests. If you're looking for a great spot to eat and/or to host a small gathering with great food + great people, this is it. Highly recommend!

The standout item was the ragu - next time I come here I legit am ordering 2 ragu dishes - it was divine! Best pasta i've ever had! The fondue was just okay. I was expecting it to taste more like the alpine fondue from the melting pot but it sadly did not. It lacked flavor (needs garlic or more wine). For the price of the weinerschnitzel, I would think they could give some carb or veggie on the side. Yes it's a good sized portion, but the presentation looked a little sad. Lots of cocktail options, but I just went with the classic aperol spritz and it was perfect. I definitely will come again on special occasions!

They are really conscious of where they get their ingredients and try to stick to local Michigan farms. A great dining experience from start to finish. We sat outside on a chilly night but don't let that deter you. They have plenty of heaters outside to keep you warm. The menu was fantastic. Everything was really delicious and flavorful. I highly recommend getting the bone marrow and you can't go wrong with any of the steaks. They are locally sourced which makes them that much better. The steak was cooked just how I want it. Also the drinks were just as delicious as well. I got an old fashioned and it was mixed perfectly. This is a great new, unique, delicious restaurant that needs to be checked out while you are in Detroit.

What a terrific experience. Oysters. Radish salad. Wild boar kebabs. Lamb ravioli. Quail. Cabbage. One course after another had us looking at each other and saying, "I want to lick the plate." Our serving team was led by Rachel, who was outstanding. Everyone who brought a dish to the table was knowledgeable, friendly, and genuinely excited about the food. Even in a packed restaurant, they made us feel like we were the most important guests in the room. The décor is fascinating--eclectic, quirky, and full of personality. Nothing seems to match, yet somehow everything works perfectly together. The drinks were spectacular. They even had my favorite beer, Miller Genuine Draft (yes, I'm old school). And the bartender is a Knicks fan, which certainly didn't hurt. One final tip: visit the website and watch the video about the history of Mabel Gray before you go. It's a wonderful story and makes the experience even more meaningful. We'll be talking about this meal for a long time. Highly recommended.

The food just had a touch more creativity, more flavor and originality. I had the glazed pork chop - so, so good. The pork was not overcooked but the glaze clung to it. My companion had the walleye, and although she does not normally order fish she raved, saying that it was perfectly cooked. And at the end of the meal (since I had admitted that this was my birthday), my dessert came with a lit birthday candle and a birthday card signed by what looked like most of the staff (16 signatures including the chef). Wow! What a great experience.

Sadly, we got a message that they changed us to inside due to possible rain. I understand, but it didn't end up raining and the outside area looked incredible. I added a photo. Oh well. That was the only real bummer. The service was amazing - pacing out all of the small plate dishes in a sensible fashion. We ordered 7 different things, and one extra arrived that we didn't order. Every item was fresh and flavorful. We definitely will come back - though not all the time as that is cost prohibitive. While it definitely is on the pricey side, we are very happy to have dined here tonight.

We had 2 couples and they customized the menu for us based on our likes and dislikes. We got 5 courses starting with appetizers, followed by pasta (which I forgot to get photos of), then sides, entrees and dessert. Plus a little aperitif to start the meal off. Zero complaints about any of the dishes. My favorite dish was probably the artichokes and the steak. So delicious! The atmosphere at the restaurant was very fun and modern. And our server was very knowledgeable and helpful when we had questions about the dishes. If you want an even more elevated experience, they have a sommelier that will come to your table and assist with picking wine to pair with your meal.

We were promptly seated and greeted my our waitress, Mary. She was very attentive and knows the menu. She explained every dish and made excellent recommendations. We all started out with an Aperol Spritz, because what says Italy more than a spritz!?! We ordered a few appetizers, artichoke, squash and asparagus. The squash was unique. It had pickled summer squash, a vegetable that I never considered pickling. Simply delicious. The asparagus was perfectly cooked and the sauce really enhanced it. Great side dish. I did not try the artichoke, but my wife and daughter both said they were amazing. For mains, I ordered the Aragosta fra Diavolo, my wife the Cappelletti and my daughters the Carbonara. All were delicious. The fra diavolo had a nice light kick of heat and loaded with lobster tail. Excellent dish. I highly recommend Shewolf. It's a phenomenal restaurant that takes pride in their food, service and the whole experience.

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.
