I took my Mom here for her Birthday on a Friday night. I made reservations about two weeks prior…read more We both had the Tasting menu. And, I had the wine pairing. Each course was imaginative and novel. I thought the flavors were amazing. The Caponata was amazing. When the server explained the course, I had no idea what it was going to taste like? It was so good. The other standout for me was the Tiramisu. I have never had a tiramisu like this one. Each course is on the small side, which I like. The restaurant is small. There is a bar area (maybe 10 people?) and a few tables. It is super cute and intimate. We were easily able to talk. Great service. Our server was attentive. She explained each course and was able to answer questions. This ranks near the top of my dining experiences. This is much more of an adventure. Probably not for the chicken-tendy crowd. Not inexpensive. I can't wait to eat here again.

I could not be happier with my experience at Mink. I came with my son for mother's day and didn't…read morereally know what to expect. When I walked in and saw the tiny space I was charmed. There was a 2 top table at the back that we were seated at - we could have sat at the bar also - and it was a great spot. We ordered the tasting menu and WOW, every course was amazing. I'll post pics because the presentation was gorgeous for each item. They have a small cocktail and wine and beer selection, but that was fine. My son got their Shrub Mocktail and I got the Shrub with Sake. Both were delicious and so interesting. I can't pick a favorite item because they were all so good, but the Torched Mackerel and Poached Bosc Pear were tied for #1, followed by the Salmon, Oysters and the crazy good Blood Orange dessert. The shrimp toast was just ok for me, not bad, just not as good as everything else. Additionally the service was outstanding. For a tiny place they did everything right. They explained each course, brought out fresh utensils for every course - YEA! - and made sure we had good pacing. Our server was knowledgeable and friendly and enhanced our meal. I really want to come back and try the oysters and some of the tinned items. I'm so excited I found Mink and will be back for sure.

Decided to go back for dinner last week and had a nice experience. However, even though we were…read morecelebrating a birthday we did not receive a candle with our dessert and we saw other tables getting candles which was a little disappointing. Most of our dishes were very tasty however I would not recommend the walleye panino. It was just ok and thought they were going to reinvent the fish sandwich but there is definitely other items that were very good. We also decided to go back yesterday for happy hour and sat at the bar and Brynn and Kelsey provided the best service I have had in a long time. They made the best martinis and were so fun and friendly! Our friends were celebrating their anniversary and we all had such a great time talking with them. I mentioned that we didn't a candle with our dessert the week before and they surprised us with pistachio gelato with a candle! It was so thoughtful and we were so thankful for the surprise! We definitely will be back for the happy and the great bar service!

I loved the atmosphere and overall vibe here! I loved that the tables were spread out and didn't…read morefeel overcrowded. The waitstaff was amazing and I didn't feel rushed at all. I did think the food was a little salty. There were a lot of unique dishes, my husband is a more adventurous eater than I am so I tried all his fun dishes, but they weren't things I would have wanted a whole meal of. I had the chicken for my entrée, and it was a huge piece and tasted great, however, it was really missing something. I wanted it on maybe a bed of pasta or maybe a bruschetta to go with it (it had a tomato basil combo on top), but something was still missing. I also wasn't overly impressed with how things were plated, definitely nothing exciting to look at presentation-wise. I always hear amazing things and there has been chatter about this being a Michelin star candidate, but I don't think it met the standards unfortunately. I would still go back and try a different menu because again it was unique, the staff was kind, and I liked the restaurant itself.

Went for my sons 38th birthday dinner We arrived early and…read moresat at the bar where our bartender Tyler patiently answered all of my chatty husbands questions about every drink he made Then had an amazing meal We ordered way too much food but wanted to try everything on the menu Our favorite hands down was the roasted cauliflower and grilled cabbage All of the staff were so friendly Shout out to Cathryn our server. She was amazing

Came here for special event. Unfortunately just thought it was mediocre…read more In terms of service provided by the waitress, it wasn't bad. The menu was explained, and she gave us her preferences. However the real gripe about service was regarding that we brought our kid and the only item on the menu was buttered noodles. That is okay, but after a few bites, even my kid who doesn't know many words informed us it was too oily and stopped eating. We wanted to buy something nearby and bring it back so he could have food, as he wouldn't eat the other items that we ordered. However, after multiple attempts, we were denied outside food or drink, solely for the kid. The restaurant's inflexibility because of their own dish being too oily and buttery, resulting in our kid being mostly hungry for the duration of our dinner . In terms of the dishes we ordered, the taste was unique for some dishes and average for others. We ordered cabbage, beef tartare, seafood pasta, and halibut. Of those dishes, surprisingly, the cabbage was the most flavorful and unique, and we rated it an easy 5 out of 5, as we never knew cabbage could taste so unique and tender. The beef tartare was good, but nothing special, as I think other restaurants serving beef tartare would taste about the same. The seafood pasta was interesting, as it had a slight crisp to it, but other than that, there were just a few pieces of octopus, which made it unique but not overly so. The halibut was tender, I'll give it that, and they prepared it in a unique bean sauce, which was also good and light. But again, nothing that beats halibut that I've had at other restaurants. The ambiance was dimly lit, packed. Plenty of servers and managers walking around. People were obviously well dressed. We sat in a corner, a dark and very cold area, so much so that we needed to put on something heavier. It is not a small dining area. The kitchen you can see on the way to the restroom was bright, well-lit, and open, with plenty of workers and chefs. The plating was pretty good, the service was quick. The food came out pretty quickly as well. However, it is a 1 to 2-hour dining experience. I don't think I would come back, as I don't think the flavor profile, service, and ambiance matched my expectation of this commonly noted number one restaurant in Detroit.
