We were in town visiting family and our group of 6 decided to have dinner at Alma Kitchen. It was…read moreexcellent. Here is what we noticed: - Atmosphere is ok but a bit cavernous, not particularly comfy. - We started with cocktails. The Old Fashioned was a bit on the small side, but tasty! - My wife and I ordered both the Brutus Chicken Sandwich and the Roasted Poblano Quesadilla. While both were really tasty, the quesadilla won the contest for the best! - Service was great...attentive but not overbearing. - 20% gratuity was automatically added onto the bill. Bottom line: We would go back to Alma Kitchen anytime we're in the area.

I enjoyed the beef bibimpab, and the hubs enjoyed the loco moco. Both were fantastic in our opinions. We want to go back to try other menu items that were intriguing. Service was very friendly and warm. Note: 20% gratuity is included automatically, which they make certain to tell you beforehand. Marvelous! Will go back soon.

Red Crown has re-made itself yet again, this version might be the winner. They have re-branded as a…read moreMexican street taco place. They have many different taco options, tamales, quesadillas and salsa, guac & queso. Since it was Taco Tuesday you could get 3 tacos, rice & beans and an elote corn for $20. My bf and I split the taco special, then I added 1 chicken tamale. It was plenty for the 2 of us. My son & his wife did the same. So I ordered the shrimp tempura taco & a chicken tamale. Both were good, my taco was not warm though, so they need to make sure they're not sending out cold food. The corn was too 'limey' for all of us, they need to work on that recipe. The rice & beans were delicious, much better then other Mexican restaurants I've been too. Really flavorful and rich. We also ordered one of each of the dips to try. They were all really good, but I really liked the guacamole and the queso. Service was a bit slow, our waitress kept disappearing to the point we had to go find her to get our bill. Hopefully they'll work on customer service. I'll try again and hope they fix their glitches.

At Coriander, you might do a double take and wonder if you're actually in Detroit. I visited…read morerecently for a special event and was charmed at the location on the water, at the whimsical decor, and the social media-ready presentation of the food. I never knew about the canal district of Detroit, but the vibe feels like a vacation in Florida instead of the middle of the Midwest. Coriander ups that vacation vibe with bright paint, plenty of outdoor seating, and beautiful decor. All of our food tastes so fresh, and I loved the additions of things like edible flowers on the yogurt that we had with our parfaits. Service was appropriately attentive for a large group, and it never felt intrusive into our private event. I'll look forward to coming back sometime soon for another afternoon that feels miles away from everyday life!

Reserved an inside patio table for lunch on a Sunday afternoon. Parking in the lot and up and down…read morethe little street was full. We ended up barely squeezing into a circle space over the canal bridge and hoofing it on over to the space. The restaurant was cavernous, near full of patrons, and very loud. Our kind, young server had difficulty hearing our requests over the din. My companion enjoyed the Burnt Lemonade mocktail. I tried a glass of "Left Foot Charlie Blaufrankish" red wine. Not recommended. it was a $16, five ounce(?!) pour that tasted like sour, dark cherry vinaigrette. I ordered the Grilled Walleye. It was beautifully plated aside the cucumber salad and quinoa serving, but it tasted near flavorless, and lacked seasoning. Unfortunate at a $35 price point. My companion was disappointed in the overly-salted Pork Kapow dish he had ordered as well. We did agree however, the Chocolate Tahini Brownie was interesting, fudge-like in texture, and something to try for chocolate-lovers. Maybe it was an off day for the chef, and maybe the beverage manager left the wine opened for too long, but our experience was less than stellar today. It's a righteous concept placed in an area steeped in history and uniqueness, but the food in particular still had to hit the mark.

I ordered a veggie omelet, a cheese omelet, and bacon. It was... nutrients. Maybe I am missing out…read moreand their sweet stuff is better. The omelets tasted a tiny bit odd on the outside, the hashbrowns smelled weird (those two things means they might need to clean their griddle or ingredients are off), and there was literally, actually, no seasoning. You can't do that with veggie and cheese omelets. It's so terribly bland. And the potatoes didn't seem to contain a hint if salt either. I understand salt to taste, but there should be some to start, as it is not the same trying to incorporate it after cooking as when it is during cooking. With a heavy heart, I must give 2 stars. I ate half the omelet bc I was starving, and my fiancee at half hers bc she was having a blood sugar episode. Faint praise. Maybe I will try them one more time for their sweet things like french toast and waffles.

The Croque Madame looked impressive. The cheese and ham and their house made bread was yummy. The egg was undercooked however. I love a runny yolk, but a runny white I can not stand. The employees were respectful and kind and I wouldn't mind coming in and trying other menu items, but what I got today was not for me.

Little did I know that Flyleaf Literature & Libations would be firing on all cylinders. It was a packed house on both floors including a private party in their meeting room on the second floor. One of the workers was kind enough to give me and my Yelp BFF the lay of the land. He shared that Flyleaf was hosting a Boy Band event with great music playing and lots of patrons taking advantage of their Sunday Brunch offerings. It was very festive and standing room only at the moment. They host various theme events every month. Although I have included the menu, their food offerings change too. They had a great book selection. I was impressed that they had four books featured that I recently purchased. I look forward to returning to kick back with a book on their patio with a pastry or two.

Everything we tried was delicious. The pancakes were a standout for sure and were very fluffy. The service was great, clean atmosphere. I informed our server that this was our first time here and wasn't sure about what to get. She eagerly provided a rundown of the menu and some of her favorites. I truly appreciated her patience and attentiveness. I will definitely be back to try more items off the menu.

Jagged Fork is a breakfast and lunch spot with six locations across Southeast Michigan. It offers a…read morevariety of staple menu items, and is also known for its seasonal specials. Lattes: The bonfire latte (special) had a strong espresso flavor, but it became sweeter as the marshmallows melted. I enjoyed this more than the lavender iced latte (special), though that ultimately came down to personal preference. Savory Breakfast Options: The triple triple omelette (regular menu item) is one of my favorite local omelettes, featuring three meats and three cheeses. The components of the sweet potato and pork belly hash (special) complimented each other nicely. It was served with house-made salsa verde and hot sauce. Sweet Breakfast Options: The campfire s'mores French toast (regular menu item) was rich and filling. The chicken and French toast (special) featured double-battered chicken tenders alongside Captain Crunch-encrusted challah French toast. Between the two, I preferred the chicken and French toast. The cinnamon swirl pancakes (regular menu item) are a classic dish here, and can be ordered as an entrée or a smaller side. Lunch Options: The birria tacos (special) were tasty, but a bit spicier than expected. Similarly, the Nashville hot chicken sandwich (special) definitely packed some heat. The chicken was sauced rather than coated in a dry rub. While I'm typically not a fan of chicken sandwiches that feature tenders instead of fillets, the size and quality of the tenders made this one work. The fries it came with had a fluffy interior and were lightly seasoned. Jagged Fork's variety and consistency over the years has kept me coming back. I often opt for the specials, but that's not a knock on the regular menu items. I'll be back to try more of the house favorites and new seasonal specials.
