Ann Arbor’s Best Restaurants | Eater Detroit

"While a relative newcomer to the downtown dining scene, Peridot has established itself as a night-out destination for high-end, Vietnamese-influenced cuisine, creative cocktails, and a chic atmosphere, complete with mood lighting and a contemporary soundtrack. Peridot’s version of the classic green papaya salad comes with salty slivers of beef jerky, and the tangy ketchup-fried rice, inspired by one of the executive chefs and owner Duc Tang’s beloved childhood dishes, does indeed spark childlike glee. The grilled seabream with rice noodles, nuoc cham, and lettuce leaves for eating wrap-style is the perfect dish for sharing with a dining partner. Book a table on Tock." - Mary Hayes Weier
