The Best Restaurant Dishes Eater Detroit Ate in May 2024 - Eater Detroit

"Thankfully, we live in a golden age for bar food. Gone are the days when you had to settle for stale bar snacks (remember peanuts?) and limp French fries. Take Dragonfly, the bright and colorful cocktail bar attached to Freya, which has a new wave happy hour menu that’s stacked with exciting options. The wagyu pastrami sandwich is particularly indulgent — a wonderful mix of fatty wagyu pastrami, marinated cabbage, homemade Russian dressing, and funky white cheddar wedged neatly in between brioche bread. Still, the sandwich somehow exercises restraint. Though deliciously rich, I didn’t feel totally bogged down afterwards. Happy hour at Dragonfly is 5 p.m. to 7 p.m. Tuesday through Friday." - Serena Maria Daniels
