Beppe was highly recommended to me during my stay in Royal Oak. The restaurant was extremely accommodating for my large, party of 10 reservation. The waitress was extremely patient with our large group and many requests. Especially when it came to ordering drinks. The pasta selections were amazing, with the risotto being the star of the show for me! The gnocchi melted in your melt. The beat salad and tuna crudo were the freshest starters. For our large party, the price of the meal was pretty reasonable, especially considering all of our drinks. I would definitely recommend this cozy, local spot next time you're craving some Italian or just in town!

Paccheri

This place astonishes & pleases us every single time we go--it really is a top notch restaurant. Friendly staff, great cocktails, very delicious food. They had several spritz cocktails available, and they are so good & refreshing in hot weather! Mine was great. We shared the arancini, which was quite large & very good--the red sauce it was on was a little spicy & really suited the arancini. Loved it! I had Ravioli stuffed with shrimp & scallop with clam & white wine sauce , which I'd had several weeks prior, & really hoped was still on the menu, as they do seasonally change it up. It was so delicious! I ate & savored EVERY bite. My husband had the short rib ragu, Paccheri, they generally have some variation on this dish & he just loves it. The meat was fall apart tender & the sauce was a little spicier than it is sometimes, but he loves it that way. We also shared a desert that was wonderful--cream puff type pastry (choux) strawberries & cream. Beppe is a local favorite for us--always a stand out great meal & great service!

Came here for a girls night and we had a wonderful time! From the first steps in the interior feels cozy and intimate, yet still modern upscale. We had a kind server who guided us through the menu and kept us from over-ordering, and we ended up sharing some appetizers, salad, fries, and a pasta. Everything was so delicious! I ended up returning on Father's Day and enjoying the outdoor dining area. Everyone loved their meals this time as well! Beppe is definitely a local favorite.

Little green gem. This drink was goood!

Something different but not much. Cool atmosphere and good vibe. Waitress was nice and the food was ok according to the 3 people that was with me. The drinks were something different for sure. If you like high quality food this spot is for you! I believe it's mostly Italian.

I'm always a fan of fish and chips. These were great, especially the "chips" and the sauces.

I have not dined in Royal Oak in years, but I did not anticipate the changes to an area I used to know, like the back of my hand. Beppé is one of the newer additions. At lunch, the restaurant was nearly empty, which, frankly, was great for enjoying a meal leisurely. Beppé has been on my list since it first opened. But with the reduced lanes on 696 and a general focus on at-home dining, my friends and I just had not made it here. The restaurant has a few distinct areas: a bar, a dining room, and a large patio. I liked the room's spare aesthetics. It felt very comfortable. The menu was equally spare. For lunch, there were a few starters, sourdough bread, fries, and cucumber and arugula salads. Other items on the menu include chicken sandwiches, burgers, fish and chips, and a few pasta dishes. Since I had been having pasta all week, I went with the fish and chips and congratulated myself on a great choice. The fish was coated in a nice, crispy batter (not the dreaded breadcrumbs) and served with a homemade tartar sauce. However, the fries were the main attraction. They were crispy and tender, paired with a curry-flavored mayo. OMG, they were fantastic. I savored every crunch, eating very slowly to luxuriate in every bite. Ketchup, mayo, or tartar sauce - the fries tasted so good, no matter the condiment. A restaurant that takes the time to make these fries AND sauces deserves consideration because it speaks to a quality ethos in the kitchen. Service was very friendly. There is a private lot, but it fills up quickly.

Small but cozy restaurant with a charming outdoor patio. The staff was friendly and attentive, which made for a pleasant experience. I was really looking forward to trying their gluten-free vodka rigatoni that I saw on Yelp, but it seems the menu has changed and it's no longer available. The closest option was the casarecce, which, while appreciated, needed a lot more seasoning to bring the flavors to life. The tagliatelle was also a bit under-seasoned and could have used some chili oil or spice to enhance it. Overall, it's a cute spot for a date night or a casual dinner out. I'll definitely give it another try and explore other menu items. It might just be that I didn't pick the best options this time. I also appreciate that they offer gluten-free pasta, as that's a huge plus for someone like me with a gluten intolerance. It's nice to have an option where I can still enjoy pasta again!

Some type of spongey noodle stew, with mild peppers and spinach mixed in.

Today was homecoming day with my girlfriend and I was on the hunt to take her to a very nice and expensive place, and I really thought I found the one. It was either that or Bella Limone, and after what they did to Pinkies I don't have the heart to go... At least not yet. But let's focus on Beppe. Spectacular interior, super kind staff and we actually happen to be the first people there upon opening on Saturday. We walked in 10 minutes before they were serving food, and both the hostess and our waiter reminded us very warmly. I absolutely love the vibe, the menu screamed "overpriced garbage" but I was still curious. I ordered a Shirley Temple, it was 10 dollars. Actually, it might've been 8 dollars. I took a picture of the receipt so I could show you the prices. I will admit though, that was easily one of the best Shirley Temples I ever had, especially for something that's traditionally just Grenadine and Sprite. By the taste, I'm confident they simmer their Grenadine in cherries for an extra pop. Very clever. Ravioli came out and I must say, although the pasta itself is quite authentic and delicate, the marinara truly ruins the entire experience. I felt quite ill when eating it. Yeah, it's that kind of pasta. We got another entree, however I forgot the name of it; I believe it was a confusing Italian word. Similar to my last dish, the pasta itself is very nice, the noodle is incredible and freshly chopped and grated with LOVE. But the texture and rawness of the ingredients isn't quite appetizing, I would rather get something simple. Let's move on to the greatest part of the entire night. The Tiramisu was 16 dollars, easily the most expensive Tiramisu I've ever had. Not saying it's supposed to be cheap, but good lord it better be worth two full orders of Mickey D's To-GO! Biting into the Tiramisu is like gnawing your teeth into genuine greatness. I absolutely adore the taste, and the texture is so satisfying. I save the in-jokes for outside of Yelp, but I'm just gonna say it; It was quite literally a taste-gasm. The dreamy creamy flavor compliments its GORGEOUS technique with the eggy, delicious white whip that is just LEAKING out from the side of the darn thing. What a fabulous dish, and probably one of the only things I could say is definitely worth the money. A desert to remember. Although two of the most expensive entrees I've ordered in a lifetime not only set back a lot of the expectations I had, but set back my bank account. I knew what I was getting myself into, so I'll leave my complaining to rest for the next time I'm craving overpriced Italian food. The good out-ways the bad in my opinion, especially with how everything turned out. Me and my girlfriend made the best out of everything we could, it started to rain so we got under the only table that didn't pour onto us. It was such a scene scented with fresh fallen water, I can just imagine the feeling in my head. Even though it had its setbacks, Beppe reminds me of the true reason I am so passionate about my genetically rooted cuisine; the greatness of gathering family and appreciating each others company, regardless of how the food may taste, is a feeling that's priceless in it of itself. I liked Beppe, and I will never come back again. 3/5

Burrata
Kamryn A.

Yum yum yum! Came here for a friend's bday and left with a new favorite place! The burrata and prosciutto were creamy and salty and paired so perfectly with their homemade sourdough. Couldn't decide between the burger and the bucatini so had to get both. And they did not disappoint. The bucatini was creamy and has the perfect mushroom umami flavor. Burger was perfectly cooked and a great staple. Service was a smidge slow and we waited nearly thirty min for drinks and dinner lasted almost two hours so be prepared to be there a bit

Food menu

Have wanted to visit this spot since they opened. Came early on a Saturday without reservations. There are three seating options: bar, indoor, and outdoor. We wanted to sit at the bar which was full. Didn't take long for it to turn over. Grabbed two bar seats which were in the center of everything. Very lighted, busy, and loud. Our server and bartender, Bianca, was pleasant but very busy. Never got water refills but realize she was making drinks for the whole restaurant. Usually sitting at the bar gives you the best service, but not always the case. Drinks were okay. Ordered the hana town and golden era. Both a little sweet and unbalanced. One too booze forward and the other too mixer forward. Highly disappointed that there is no vegan main pasta dish. The executive chef suggested their gluten free pasta with red sauce. After perusing the menu, I would suggest a delish dish with maitake, lentils, peas and homemade pasta. There is a seared cauliflower and gigantic bean salad (minus parm) that are veganish. Ordered both. Portions are small, but they were edible. Still super surprised the chef wouldn't offer or create a better main with ingredients already on the menu. It's pasta and veggies served at a premium. Easy, but not here. Meat eaters will delight in all the animal dishes on the menu, but this isn't a repeat place for me. Get reservations if you're coming. It's small and busy. On the plus side, they have a parking lot and free side street parking.

This is a great spot for small groups or date nights! We thought our drinks were fabulous. The service was quick and attentive. It's always a nice touch when they change out silverware between courses. Overall the food was good but not insane. The burger really needs a different bun and was very heavy on pickles to the point it only tasted like pickles. I'd say the most notable were the french fries..maybe the best in the Detroit area

Crudo
Maryann S.

We enjoyed Beppe. The food was very good, the hamburger was tasty and fries were amazing. We also enjoyed the crudo. It was light, fresh and a good balance go the heavy burger. Knocked one star because the service is a bit strange. We checked the reservations a couple hours before and they had multiple of them open. We showed up to them telling us they don't have any availability and we have to sit at the bar. The restaurant was half empty for our entire meal. Very strange to deny a table with open reservations and open tables.

Beppe has the absolute BEST burger around (maybe the best I've ever had?), comforting yet modern vibes, great happy hour, and fast service. It's a Royal Oak Gem!

Arancini
Alina S.

The food was good! The service was quick and kind and the vibes were on point. I definitely want to go again and try their pasta. I loved the arancini and would recommend it to everyone! The fries and aioli were soo delicious and the Caesar salad was good, it was missing that bit of acidity and cut that most Caesar salads have. I liked the look of the big croutons and the addition of the egg for some extra protein. Overall, super great meal and I hope to come back again soon!

I LOVE this place. I had never heard of Michigan by the Bottle until they did a sparkling Saturday…read moreevent with 5 tasters of sparkling wine from a local vineyard. I came with a couple girlfriends around 1 pm and the place was busy but not packed by any means. We sat at the bar and were quickly seated. The wines were all VERY tasty. They had a promo in addition to the tasters only being $15 where you received $5 off a bottle of wine should you purchase it that day. While I didn't indulge further, my friend did and it was still so tasty later that night! The wines were paired with a little serving of cheeses and dark chocolate. Just an amazing spread all around. The employees there are nothing short of incredible. They're kind, attentive, and total hype masters. I've never felt more safe and like I belonged seated at a bar before, and with how things have been going lately, I almost cried with how amazing that felt. I can't even wait to be back.

It sadness me to write this review. I really enjoy the atmosphere and camaraderie at trivia night…read moreat MBTB. But I am outraged by new ownership that apparently changed over on Monday. We went for trivia and expected it to be the same as always, unfortunately it was not. They erased our points we've earned for a free glass, these are no longer honored. The menu has significantly changed: flights are $2-$3 more, no longer include flight bites, an upcharge for premium pours (which is understandable), no longer has a $5 bottle credit, and each glass is now $3-$5 more per pour. Why did you have to make every last item on the menu more expensive? I understand that the economy and inflation contribute to these things, but to increase the price and get less on everything throughout the menu plus not honor points earned for a free glass is a slap in the face. I'm just crushed at the blatant disrespect for the regulars that come every week for trivia or other events, no warning. Our trivia night just got a whole lot more expensive and we will be looking at other locations with more reasonably priced beverages and snacks. I hope they still allow us to bring in our own food, they did this week but who knows if that will also change. The staff seemed stressed telling us the new rules as well.

Parking was no problem as I was lucky to find metered parking just steps away from the front door. I walked in immediately taken with the charming decor and darkly lit romantic vibes, which is my favorite esthetic for any restaurant. The seating at the bar was yummy, thick comfy seats. The bartender greeted me warmly. He was cool and I hate that I didn't ask his name. He was attentive and masterful with the spirits. He asked if it was my first time, which it was, and since so, made me a tasty "welcome" drink with gin that was fantastic. I also ordered "the panty snatcher" a concoction of vodka, grapefruit, St Germain, rose water and orange. It was amazing. I will definitely be back for drinks. The drink menu is quite tempting. I had the Corn, Corn, Corn dish, which is polenta and corn kernels topped with popcorn. Yes, super unique and interesting. I had to try it. The popcorn was so light and flavorful straight out of the kitchen, but became chewy as it sat atop the piping hot polenta. I really enjoyed it however. Next time I'll eat all the popcorn first. I also had lobster dumplings, which was good but the dish wasn't cooked through. The filling wasn't hot and the pasta was very under on some bites. I was the first customer for the evening, so I can forgive that faux pas. I really enjoyed myself and I will return time and time again to try everything. The menu offers many things I love. Great concept. Cool vibes.
