Dixboro Project - Coffee at Dixboro! - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Ann Arbor, Michigan

This place is all vibes and no follow-through. It *looks* like the kind of spot that should deliver a great meal, but don't let the aesthetic fool you. I ordered the eggs Benedict and instantly regretted it. The ham was an inedible slab of fat, I probably could've found one bite without fat. I asked for it to be remade, and they brought back a new plate that had the smallest, most burnt piece of ham I had ever seen. It was obviously an "F-you" for sending it back, but this place should be above that considering its price and reputation. My friend tried to Dixboro breakfast and it was the smallest saddest looking thing I'd ever seen. For how much you pay, the portion sizes are a joke. We also tried the pizza because we were still hungry (shocker), and wow. Limp, soggy, and lifeless. No crunch, no structure, just floppy sadness. It was limper than a disappointing hookup after they've drank too much. I've had better texture from frozen pizza straight out of the microwave. For the price, this place should be a hit. Instead, it's a masterclass in how to ruin brunch. Never again. read more

Absolutely blown away by this place! Came here for brunch over the weekend with a friend. Loved the interior, super cute on the inside, restaurant was full of people. Service was good, had to wait about 10 minutes following the start of our reservation. I ordered the Egg Sandwich, and everything about it was wonderful! The homemade english muffin was probably the best I've ever had, turkey was flavorful, and the cheese was super tasty. Almond croissant was so so good. Greens with the sandwich were just okay. Looking forward to returning! read more

Super expensive, decent food but not worth the wait and price. Better off spending the evening downtown where events are happening.

We had a wonderful time in the restaurant. The staffs were very friendly. Loved the welcoming decor and the interior. We ate the mushroom pizza, can't wait to order that again. It was so good. Loved the cheese pizza and the shrimp cocktail. We enjoyed the non alcoholic drinks as well. read more

The food has been very good to excellent. I would not consider most of the dining room food carry out. The pizzas and salads, absolutely yes. Service had always been stellar but our last visit was disappointing. I never got my beer order fulfilled. Had a coke instead. Ambiance is nice. A large dining room setting and an outdoor porch. Both attractive and inviting. read more

My husband and I celebrated New Year's Eve with a splurge dinner at the Dixboro Project. Although we've stopped by the "Boro to Go" many times, this was our first visit to the restaurant side. It is beautiful inside the old barn structure. We sat in the area closet to the big, window wall and it had a magical, romantic atmosphere. Everyone we encountered from the host staff to the bar staff to servers were friendly and helpful. Our server, Matteo was knowledgeable, skilled and easy to talk to. I let him pick my dinner because I couldn't decide and I have to say, he nailed it! The Brown Buttered Seared Scallops were divine! My husband loved his Venison Casarecce as well. Our other courses included the crispy octopus and a mushroom pizza (with sausage added thanks to Matteo's inside tip). We saw several tableside preparations of Baked Alaska, which looked great, but we were just too full for dessert. This is truly a special occasion restaurant. When you want to treat yourself and be treated with true hospitality - Dixboro Project is one of the best places in Metro Detroit! read more

This business has forgotten the roots of the Dixboro area! Our experience: The scheduler is inflexible if (1) additional guest needs to be added at the last minute. I won't indulge on their menu and service if not made to feel welcome. We last made reservations on July 20th (my birthday), my ex-husband needed to add his new lady friend to join us and a simple plus one was flatly turned down on the phone. I see that is not hospitality to a new customer !!! read more

Joy and I enjoyed breakfast there today for the second time with Ann Arbor friends and Dixboro Project did not disappoint. We were fortunate enough to be able to land a wonderful outdoor table looking out over the rear of the rear of the restaurant property. And the morning weather was perfect and so was our Dixboro experience. read more

Fun farm to table spot! The menu is very wide ranging so go with a lot of people to try a lot of things. The duck pizza, steak, and sweet potato were my favorites. I would definitely come back here to try another one of their wood fired pizzas! read more

Just went to their to go counter for pastries, coffee & a soup to go. Was directed to the main restaurant to wait for soup and coffee. Coffee came out quickly, soup took 15 minutes. When the lady brought out my soup, I started to say that took a long time for a cup of soup and she cut me off, was dismissive and walked away. Have lots of fond memories of the Lord Fox from my time at U of M, was excited to try this place & would have come back for dinner but from the way I was treated I will stay in my neck of the woods. Treat your customers with kindness & respect. read more

Very good service. Nice drink menu. Delicious made from scratch food. Enjoy the ambience, but it can get loud with a full house. In the warmer months we enjoy sitting outside at the picnic tables down by the stream. read more

The prices are high here, I will start with that, but the crispy octopus appetizer we had was pretty life changing. It's a must try! The regular cocktail menu is very mezcal, bourbon and tequila heavy when I prefer vodka and gin based drinks, but they had one rotating cocktail that appealed to me at least! We also really enjoyed the seared cod dish, that crab rice that was nestled beneath it was so yummy! The margarita pizza left much to be desired unfortunately though as it had been heavily over salted. However when I gave the server feedback without the expectation of having it taken off the bill we were pleasantly surprised to see it had been removed at the end of dinner, so the staff is well trained to make sure you thoroughly enjoy your dinner. We're excited to try more of the menu but the high prices are a slight deterrent. read more

My favorite Michigan restaurant, by far. Service is always amazing. Food is consistently delicious. Atmosphere is perfection.

Amazingly sophisticated place in AA. Unique lunch entrees, great coffee, and airy & bright atmosphere. Service was great and bathrooms were clean! read more

The Dixboro House offered an amazing three course tasting menu as part of Ann Arbor restaurant week. Ambiance was rustic and modern - with the giant glasses in barn wall at one end - it was very fun and lively scene. The service was attentive and prompt - with drinks and food orders turning around quickly - especially given the full house. read more

Is anyone else over impressed with the decor but under impressed with the food? Just came back from their advertised holiday happy hour. They have a deviled egg special for $8. We got ONE EGG cut in half. Talk about over priced eggs and I wasn't in the grocery store!!! Ordered 3 broiled oysters. They were the size of baby clams for $13! I ordered a vodka martini. It came in the smallest martini glass and was less than 1/3 full! I sent it back after questioning if it was missing the rest of the glass. The bartender took it off the bill only to have a different bartender add it back on because he thought it was a mistake I have eaten here before and ordered the $50 FLANK STEAK - yes you read that right- and was underwhelmed. Trust me- I can pay for ambiance in plenty of other places and get real and substantial and delicious food for my money. Last time for Dixboro project for me!!! Happy Hour is their way to not give a bargain but take you for even more than their regular menu!!!! ‍ read more

Bravo to Sava, Louis, and staff! Our party of 6 was duly impressed by the preview tasting dinner. The artistry of the plates, freshness of seafood, produce, meat and perfection of the bakery were beyond any meal we've had in Michigan. The vegan preparations were excellent as well. The high quality, savory flavor explosions of seafood, sauces, and even coffee, wow! Wine selections were spot on and the service staff was knowledgeable and professional. The only suggestion is to tone down the noticeable ambient noise, perhaps with drapes. read more

Service was great. Our waiter did an excellent job. Not too frequent, but checked with us. Food was ok. We had a pizza and the burger. Nothing was bad but I expected more from the environment of the place and the price. read more

Unique flavors and combinations, great service, gorgeous design. I loved the duck Benedict. Can't wait to come for supper!

I was here years ago when it was The Lord Fox, a legend in its time. Then it became Roger Monks, which I never tried. Now it is The Dixboro Project. A somewhat strange name for a restaurant. My wife and I went there on a return trip from her appointment at St. Joseph Hospital at approximately 2 PM in the afternoon. The inside is nice. The staff is friendly. There are supposed to known for their woodfired pizza so we ordered one. Enough for two, our waitress assured us. It was a pepperoni. I ordered also a cup of soup of the day (cream of broccoli or something similar). It was ok but thin. The pizza wasn't any better. It lacked flavor, the sauce was bland and the pepperoni overly spicy. The bill was an eye opener. $142 with tax and tip! Service was good. My wife praised the waitress to the manager. $142 for a pizza, soup and tip? We won't be going back. read more

Great food and service in both the take away area and in the main dining room. I especially liked the lemon cupcakes.

The style of this restaurant, the service and product is amazing. It's upscale even for nice occasions and the back patio allows for a more casual atmosphere. I went on my birthday and they started us with a non-alcoholic (first time I've ever been somewhere that offers that option) toast and the rest of the evening was a dream. We are pizza obsessed so that is what we always lean towards which is extremely reasonably priced for how freaking good it is. The pepperoni and broccolini sausage are our favorites. We eat A LOT and splitting a Caesar and one pizza was enough for us to leave full and comfortable with a very pretty price point. We've already gone back and booked a reservation for Mother's Day. Truly a sweet experience. Great mocktails that aren't just sugar. It's our new favorite occasion spot. read more

We had a great experience here! I was a little apprehensive on going based on some of the Yelp reviews and while I think it's a bit overpriced, it's good food! The service was great, the interior is nice, and there's complimentary valet. I recommend for a nice night out! read more

Came for a weekday late dinner with colleagues. Was able to get a reservation for 5 people at 8p on a weekday very easily. Service was very good and the pacing of ordering and service was comfortably slow and appropriate to allow conversations with the group, though if I was coming back with a smaller party I might wish the service be a little faster. We started with the Japanese milk bread and also shared a pepperoni pizza, 2 mushroom pizzas, and their special which was a fried chicken. Everything was delicious. Their friend chicken special was very reasonably priced at $26 for 6 pieces of chicken, mashed potatoes, and a salad. We were interested in their dry aged prime ribeye which was unfortunately not available that night. We finished with their Japanese cheesecake for dessert. We sat in the more open section of the restaurant right next to the floor to ceiling doors and windows which had a lovely ambiance as the sun set. read more

Enjoy coming here for lunch and dinner, unique choices make this a popular restaurant.

Near-flawless experience. Food was excellent, service was excellent. The wines we tried were excellent. I can't give our visit a 5th star due to the small pour of my single malt scotch whisky I had with dessert, especially at its exorbitant price point. That was the only disappointment of the evening. read more

Very good food, service, and ambience. Everything was farm to table and very fresh. We ordered enuf for 4 at lunch and didn't hafta wait for seating during the weekday.

Lovely building inside and out. Being in the large room with the view to barren trees and a recent snowfall on the ground was enjoyable. We had an attentive server and runners who brought our food right to the table. We opened with some scones from the bakery and they were delicious. There was a card on our table at arrival acknowledging that we were there for a Birthday celebration. Nice touch! Everyone enjoyed their other food brunch food items a great deal. Eggs Benedict came with the best ham ever tasted according to one diner. At the end of our meal they gave us a "Birthday toast" by bringing out a mix of alcohol champagne and a non-alcohol beverage for those who don't imbibe. I expected a large bill but was pleasantly surprised at the amount paid for such wonderful meals. The Birthday honoree had such a pleasant time and very much enjoyed her special day. Lovely place and would certainly return. read more
