Southwest Detroit's Flowers of Vietnam serves inventive Vietnamese dishes like caramel chicken wings and whole fried fish in a hip, cozy spot with stellar cocktails.
"This modern, Vietnamese-influenced restaurant has gained a particular following for its caramel chicken wings. Every single bite of these bronze, glazed Korean fried beauties delivers a satisfyingly sweet crunch and juicy meat. Pair your order with a snappy, tangy papaya salad and a Michigan-brewed IPA and you’ve got yourself a swanky game day meal." - Serena Maria Daniels
"Located inside the former Vernor Coney Island space, Flowers of Vietnam is a Vietnamese restaurant in Mexicantown and one of the city’s most exciting places to eat right now. It started as a pop-up, but after a year of borrowing the space, Flowers of Vietnam redesigned it to give it a more modern feel, while keeping the kitschy neon signage and lunch counter from the original. The menu changes regularly, but typically includes things like caramel chicken wings, lobster vermicelli, and a whole fried fish, along with interesting cocktails and coffee egg creams. Make this the first stop during your next visit." - sara barron, sam faye
"Southwest Detroit’s modern Vietnamese restaurant and bar is the ideal spot for a night out with friends for its shareable Korean-inspired caramel chicken wings, bountiful servings of papaya salad, pork and sausage-spiked crispy rice, and expertly prepared cocktails. The desserts, though, also deserve accolades. Notable standouts include the Terroirs of Vietnam, made with longevity ice cream, coffee, and marou chocolate and bánh phô mai Nhât Ban — a Japanese-style cheesecake with fruit and passionfruit curd." - Serena Maria Daniels
