Republic Tavern

We had a wonderful time at this restaurant! We did the chef's tasting and the wine pairing. They were very generous with both food and wine. We couldn't eat another bite and had leftovers. We loved the food! Everything was flavorful and unique! Their staff is top-notch! Chris was our waiter, and he was fantastic! Every staff person we encountered was friendly and accommodating. We had such a wonderful experience that we came back two days later!! I have recommended this restaurant to everyone I see! Anyone in the Detroit area need to experience this restaurant!

This place far and away exceeded my expectations. The food was Wonderful! After eating I couldn't believe how low the prices were. While I hear their menu changes often, currently the Pork shank, the Bronzino, and the scallops are all Incredible. Seriously. Some of the best I've ever had of all three. There were 3 of us at dinner so we went with the chefs testing menu. It was more than worth it. We left more than full. I don't think I could recommend this place more. Now it was my first and only time. But I will be back to see if this was a fluke or the standard.

Pricey. Vegetable dishes and bread were outstanding. Light on the gin in the gin and tonic. Not all food comes to the table at the same time as it is prepared as it's ordered. Sharing of dishes is encouraged by staff. Unique combinations of food. Cool building.

Our server was very knowledgeable and helpful. We decided to do the tasting menu and it ended up being a great value and a great way to try a little bit of everything! Everything was absolutely amazing, my favorite course was dessert which included a homemade malt ball and a chocolate dipped chocolate chip cookie.

The atmosphere and service was great. The food was pretty good. If you’re a steak lover, I wouldn’t recommend the Steak as it was pretty tough...but tasted great!

Going to a farm-to-table restaurant you can expect the prices to be high and the plates to not be so big! This is well expected before you visit. You know that feeling you get after you eat, especially after eating out... that full stuff feeling that kind of makes you tired.. not here at Republic Tavern, the food tastes like it was picked right from the ground within moments before it was cooked for your dinner. Service was outstanding, item menu was exciting, all around fabulous place. I do wish there was more onions in the brussel sprouts for proportion although that may just be my personal preference ;)

Republic is a classy place with unique food that changes on a regular basis. Our meal was so tasty and rich that we couldn’t really finish it all, and had less than the recommended amount of dishes. Cocktails and beer menu could be better. Overall, good experience!

For starters the cocktails were delicious! Had the duck liver pate, roasted carrots and seared duck breast w nettle pesto and feta cream. All the dishes were outstanding. The chef is very talented. A gem in Detroit!
