"As co-owner of a downtown Flood’s Bar and Grille (as well as The Block and the adjoining Garden Theater in Midtown), Stephanie Byrd vocally opposed the proposed food-safety signage ordinance, saying "Scott Benson was trying to fix something that actually wasn’t a problem," calling the measure "tone deaf," and arguing it came at terrible timing while many restaurants are still recovering from the pandemic; Byrd and the Metro Detroit Black Business Alliance also contended the requirement would disproportionately impact Black restaurant owners." - Serena Maria Daniels
"In the heart of Greektown, Flood’s has been a hotspot for seafood, soul food, and Cajun fare for 25 years. The loungey vibe is complemented by R&B, hip-hop and DJs on the weekend." - Monica Williams
"Established in 1987, this downtown spot is known for its drinks and classic soul-food menu, catering to an adult (21+) crowd and regarded locally for its cocktails and comfort-food offerings." - Monica Williams
"A Greektown bar-and-grille is staging an indoor-outdoor networking event aimed at Black business owners one evening, followed the next day by a block-party-style celebration with DJs and a $1,000 cash giveaway to support local entrepreneurs." - Monica Williams
"A family-run operation has navigated the pandemic with a mix of takeout, dine-in, and outdoor dining and is weighing whether to invest in expensive patio heaters that would only extend outdoor service by weeks, balancing the desire to keep patios open against high maintenance costs and limited winter benefit." - Brenna Houck
