Detroit’s 2024 Eater Award Winners | Eater Detroit

"Housed in a single-story brick building that once operated as a mechanic’s garage, this moody, nightlife-minded restaurant (black interior with red accents) offers a celebratory tour of Latin American flavors under chef de cuisine Rosa Montalvo. Sandwiches and shared plates run the gamut from a Uruguayan chivito topped with a fried egg and choripán to a ceviche bar featuring aguachile and vegan ceviche, Ecuadorian empanadas made with plantains and cheese, and a crispy, shareable breaded beef Milanesa that nods to Italian influence in Argentina. The cocktail program spotlights Latin American spirits like pisco and yerba mate (used in a Tereré and Tonic), and the dining room’s DJ booth and windows that open for alfresco seating reinforce the venue’s energetic, music-forward vibe." - Serena Maria Daniels
