"Rattlesnake Club, the Rivertown establishment that brought Detroit its first James Beard award in 1993, closed permanently, citing changes in dining habits and struggles to rebound following the COVID-19 pandemic." - Serena Maria Daniels
"A perennially popular event space, the Rattlesnake Club has views of the RiverWalk and Windsor skyline. This reception venue also offers a dedicated ceremony space in the Clock Tower Courtyard for couples that want to have their ceremony and reception all at one venue." - Eater Staff, Grace Reyes
"The Rattlesnake Club is a Detroit institution both in terms of food and its close proximity to the Detroit river and views of downtown. In warm weather, customers can sip classic cocktails on the restaurant’s terrace while looking out on the waterfront. Standout menu items include the ruby and yellow beet pyramid and the braised Colorado lamb shank." - Serena Maria Daniels, Eater Staff
"The Rattlesnake Club has paused indoor dining until May 1. Carryout service is available from 3:30 p.m. to 7:30 p.m. Tuesday to Saturday." - BethMcKibben
"The Rattlesnake Club boasts gorgeous views of the Detroit riverfront. Every Tuesday through Friday during happy hour, patrons can sample a large array of appetizers at reduced prices in the bar and lounge. It’s a great way to check out one of Detroit’s most venerated restaurants without committing to a full dinner. While there’s not technically a raw oyster special, the $16 baked Virginia oysters with wilted kale, chanterelle and gruyere is savory enough to make up for it. When to Order: 4 p.m. to 7 p.m. Tuesday through Friday" - Mickey Lyons
