The 38 Essential Restaurants in Detroit

"The city’s first Black-owned, takeout-friendly food hall provides Detroiters with several food vendors in a convenient location on the city’s westside: a barbecue spot called Detroit Wild Pit, offering St. Louis-style pork ribs; customizable rice bowls from Poon’s Hibachi Grill; smashed sliders from Crazy Burger; refreshing blended drinks from Your Perfect Blend Smoothie Shop, oxtail mac ‘n cheese from Noodle ‘n Cheese, Heavenly Chicken and Waffles, Life is Sweets ice cream parlor; and regional hot dogs and pizza with outrageous topping combinations from Bodega, featuring the creations of Pizza with Attitude. Each food stall is tightly packed within the single-story former office building, so keep in mind that space is limited and dining will likely need to take place elsewhere." - Serena Maria Daniels
