The 38 Essential Restaurants in Detroit

"This restaurant-and-bar duo offers dinner and drinks in one building. For $95, diners can experience a multi-course menu that may last several hours and highlights the bounty of each season. (one menu included Island Creek oysters accompanied with compressed melon, Michigan baby carrots charred with toasted pistachio, Michigan sweet corn agnolotti, and chocolate almond custard.) The space feels very relaxed, with a minimal and elegant dining area that features exposed brick and a host stand made of reclaimed wood. An open kitchen allows diners to witness the kitchen team at work. One unexpected element: Diners can select songs to play while they eat, thanks to the restaurant’s robust collection of vinyls. Next door, the Dragonfly bar boasts a low-ABV menu along with a lineup of signature cocktails that changes regularly, as well as creative bar bites like duck tenders. The spot now opens up its space for up-and-coming chefs like the women of Fried Chicken & Caviar, who’ve hosted the Communion Sunday brunch pop-up experience featuring a curated drink menu, special food items, and an eclectic playlist." - Serena Maria Daniels
