Ann Arbor’s Best Restaurants | Eater Detroit

"Since opening the doors of her eponymous restaurant in 2016, chef Ji Hye Kim has gained national acclaim with five semifinalist nods from the James Beard Awards, including Best Chef: the Great Lakes Region in 2025. Kim’s restaurant is both cozy and modern, and menu highlights include her craveable Korean fried chicken (available in chile glaze, soy glaze, or a Korean spice dry rub), a rich soy butter rice, and broccolini tossed with anchovy caramel, crunchy cashews, and cilantro. To sip, choose from a variety of Korean libations or some fun cocktails, such as a plum syrup Negroni or a perfectly made French 75. Reservations are accepted through Resy, and there’s also a to-go option. A sibling spot, Little Kim, is in the works." - Mary Hayes Weier
