The 38 Essential Restaurants in Detroit
"This quintessential all-day brunch spot has been a downtown stalwart for more than a decade. And for good reason. The destination, named after the former department store, has a reputation for its mountain of luxuriant savory and sweet breakfast meals, so much so that lines can usually be seen overflowing onto Woodward on any given weekend. The red velvet pancakes with cream cheese drizzle and the voodoo eggs benedict corn cakes, Spanish chorizo, cheddar cheese, and ranchero sauce are legendary. To drink, fresh-squeezed juice, teas, coffee, and espresso beverages are available, as are brunch-worthy cocktails like the Pancake Breakfast Shot made with TAP Canadian maple whisky, maple-infused simple syrup, orange juice, and a slice of bacon. The spot reopened to the public in spring 2023 following a months-long closure, with several updates to the space. For fans in the suburbs, a Northville location has also opened, as of spring 2023, and a Troy outpost is also in the works." - Serena Maria Daniels
