My friends took me to Nine Kitchen for my bday brunch. We started with the beignets and our waitress brought them out with candles for my bday. They were delicious and not overly sweet. 3 of us ordered the breakfast bowl and one ordered the French toast sandwich. Everything was flavorful, the portions were large and I had a great time. I ordered the lemon upside down cocktail. I will be ordering that everytime I go from now on.
Saturday brunch, sure why not. Our server was great, found parking easily, full bar, TVs on (because sports). Now onto the food, everything DELICIOUS, drinks, food Amazon, my breads bowl was great, that sauce on the side didn't last long lol. I also took a piece of mg friend's French toast sandwich, very good. I already want to go back lol
I came here for brunch and ordered the berry French toast, and I'm being honest... this was the best French toast I've had in a very long time--maybe even the best ever, lol. It was perfectly sweet, fluffy, and loaded with flavor. My sister ordered a traditional breakfast and she enjoyed! The place itself is cute and chill, and the staff were definitely attentive and nice. I'm already planning to come back soon to check out their happy hour and Taco Tuesdays!
Packed and loud. Service was slow but friendly. Food was just meh. It was OK. We had the steak frites and you can't really mess that up - oh wait, you can by having a less than quality piece of meat. The carrot tacos.... We laughed when they came out. You require another dish, don't just order it and think your hunger will be satisfied. Steak tacos OK. Fries were the best part. It's expense, the drinks really expense and on the small side. One bathroom stall for men and one for women. There was always a line. I don't understand why they are not unisex bathrooms to begin with but using the restroom was a problem. We were always on the lookout for when the line was empty or down to at least one person. The good part is that it's next door to a nightclub where we danced the night away.
Took me a while, but finally made it to Nine last night with my wife and some friends. Ambiance is cool -- not quite "fancy" but a step up from your usual sports bar kinda place. The bar area is beautiful. Noise level is loud enough that you can have a private conversation, but no so loud that you have to shout at people at your table (a complaint I have about a lot of "open ceiling" kinda bars). I tried two cocktails: Stay Lit and Spill the Tea. Both were good, though not great. Food was yummy! We shared the spicy Greek feta dip, Korean wings, steak frites, and penne ragu, and I liked everything. My only two complaints are that the wine list is just meh, and the service is quite slow. There were a couple of times when we asked for another minute to look at a menu, and then our server disappeared for 10-15 minutes at a time. Food came out reasonably fast, but cocktails took a long time even after being ordered. I'll likely visit again because the food and drinks are good, but if the slow service remains, I'd probably not give it a third shot.
Came here for drinks with a friend after dinner down the street and the vibe was so cute!! Lots of seating when we got there and decorations for the holidays. Definitely a great spot for a girl's night or to grab drinks with family and friends. Our waitress was very attentive and offered us suggestions on the menu. We both got the espresso martini which was delicious! I love espresso and the hint of vanilla made it really good. I would definitely come back next time that I'm in the area, and bring a group.
We made a reservation on a Tuesday evening but it wasn't necessary. There were only 4 people sitting at the bar when we walked in at 5:15pm. I'm not sure why because the vibe is chill, music is on point, food is very good and they have happy hour from 4-6 Tuesday thru Friday.
Nine Kitchen and Bar is easily one of my favorite spots. Chic, beautiful, and effortlessly stylish, it's the kind of place that nails both the vibe and the menu. The service is always on point, and now that they've added brunch? Game changer. The Fish and Grits is my absolute favorite--perfectly seasoned fish and creamy, flavorful grits that I could eat every day. The French Toast Sandwich is pure indulgence--more than enough to share, though trust me, you won't want to. Their omelettes are spot-on, the drinks are just as good, and it all comes together in a space you'll want to linger in.
We went for a quick drink and snack during happy hour! The cocktails were excellent - well balanced & delicious! I had the Stay Lit and hubby had the Historic OF. We would totally come back for these. We ordered the steak tacos, I would say the beef was a bit too chewy. I would recommend they cut the pieces down much smaller but they were alright and had flavor. If it wasn't happy hour, I think I would try something else. We didn't try any other food but I noticed others all ordered the fries and I would definitely like to try some other dishes next time. The bar is really nice, a highlight of the bar/restaurant but they have tables and booths. The service was excellent and all the staff were very attentive and friendly. Nine is located on Woodward (across from The Fly Trap if you're familiar with Ferndale). There is paid street parking or a lot in the back. Ferndale makes it easy to pay for parking because you can text or download the app (think it was $1.80/hour). Great place to check out in Ferndale!
This place recently opened up but it looks like they already got their stuff together! Open, clean, brightly lit and nicely decorated - is the first impression. Attentive, friendly and helpful wait staff and a manager - is the second impression. Couple things - I wish they had some egg dishes on the menu for a weekend brunch. Menu is not very big. However, there are options to pick from. We came with a larger group and overall opinion was that food is good and so are the drinks. I ordered steak tacos and, unfortunately, meat was on a tougher, chewy side. But flavor was good. Bang bang shrimp and wings were good as well. I have to say that they do have good coffee! And, amazing fried orios dessert (I am not usually a fan of the cookies themselves but their dessert was worth the extra calories...I think ).
New place with bright and light decor, nice plush seating and great service. Drinks were good, except they dont do bloody mary's if you like that for brunch. Food was hit and miss: Wings were good a bit spicy Bang bang shrimp tasted watery for some reason Lamb meatballs were good a bit dry My friend ordered a salad and it was done incorrectly and since it was last dish to come out she decided to keep it. I believe this place can be very good once they work out certain aspects in the kitchen and in the service.
Two separate dinners out, two separate groups, and both wanted to go to Nine for dinner. Reservations for both nights were easy to make. The manager, Ryan, was super receptive and helpful with our big group. In between the first visit and these last two, we tried everything on the menu, and it was all delicious. Whether you go for drinks and apps to share with your group, dinners, etc., this place excels in all of it. The highlight of both nights was our waiter, Drew. He is seriously one of the best waiters I have ever had in any restaurant. He took care of our group of 13 like it was nothing last night, and our group of 5 today, all with a smile on his face, and such a positive vibe. This is our new favorite place!
What a delightful surprise walking into this place. It has been in the works for a while and it has been opened about 6 months now. The vibe is casual Elegance. Very comfortable and eclectic group of people gathered together under One roof for wonderful cocktails in a terrific meal. This place is great whether you are on a date or with a group of friends. They are very accommodating and well-versed in their menu.

Did I hate it? Nah. Did I love it? Nah. Chic, cozy and clean. Service was good. Cocktails were average. Food was ok. Recommend the beignets. Do NOT recommend the shrimp and grits. Guessing it was just the wrong choice since it looks like the french toast is what they are known for. I'd only go back to see if they are anything to write about. But other than that, can check it off the list as been there, done it. read more

Sorry for the half-eaten burger, but it looked so good I couldn't wait! I ordered the Smash Burger with smoked Gouda, and that's a combination I didn't know I needed. It was juicy, flavorful, and cooked perfectly. And those Cajun lemon pepper fries? Easily one of the highlights of the meal. My wife ordered the Pineapple Bowl, and she absolutely loved it. The presentation alone was a 10/10, but it tasted just as good as it looked. For drinks, I had the Smoked Old Fashioned... actually, two of them. That should tell you everything you need to know. My wife had the Lemon Upside Down and the Ginger Spice, and both were refreshing and well-balanced. We're giving Nine Kitchen & Bar a solid 4.5/5. The only reason we're holding back that last half-star is because we already want to come back and explore more of the menu before calling it a perfect five. Overall, this was an excellent first experience with great food, creative cocktails, and a fun atmosphere. We'll definitely be back. read more

I ordered a French 75 with Empress gin and the bang bang shrimp appetizer. This place is a cute vibe; it was my first time hearing of it and patronizing it. The staff were very nice and friendly! We were a large (8), last minute group and they got us seated about 10 minutes after arriving. Very expensive though! My bill was $47.00 for one drink and an appetizer. The bill included 20% gratuity for "large party ". read more
We stopped in for brunch one day. The space is open and air it's beautifully decorated. The food was good and large portions. The service was good too. The only thing in didn't like was that we were given 3 different cocktail menus. And when we ordered we were told sorry those cocktails are not available for brunch service... To me that seems absurd because are you telling me that you don't have the ingredients to make me a drink from the menu you would be using in just a few hours? It just seemed stupid to have 3 different menus for cocktails that you only use at certain times of the day. read more

Beautiful atmosphere, service was phenomenal! Food absolutely delicious! Flavorful; I was able to taste ingredients which was not overwhelming but perfect in my opinion. Those lamb meat balls were everything!! Even the drink was A1! I will definitely be back more than likely next weekend lol! read more
1st time and I will definitely return during the evening. Super cute vibe . It's well lit and bright enough to remain intimate enough for a date or with friends. My drink was tasty, I love a good old fashioned. My friends loved their drinks as well. I got a flatbread pizza and wings both very tasty. I loved the play list. I love a good happy hour. Service was excellent provided by Ms.Symone.. I'm going to try brunch next. read more

I came here on accident the day of their grand opening! They had a live DJ who was pretty good! The bar and waitstaff were extremely nice and welcoming. The had mocktails on the menu which is refreshing and supportive of the NA movement. The menu was large enough for selection but small enough that it felt a single kitchen could master every dish. I think the best dish by far was the bang bang shrimp! Not only was the shrimp delicious but the greens served with it were well dressed. The steak tacos were ok and the chicken parm sandwich while large did eat a little dry. Fries were really good! read more

We'd been hearing great things about Nine Kitchen + Bar, so we finally decided to check it out -- this time as a family outing with our 1-year-old, Noa. Space for stroller/high chair Delicious food for adults Lively atmosphere that worked well for toddler energy We went during happy hour and ordered the chicken wings, bang bang shrimp tacos, feta dip, French fries, and the margherita flatbread. Everything was tasty, but the standout for me was definitely the bang bang shrimp tacos -- packed with flavor and perfectly done. Noa approved! 4/5 The only hiccup was some confusion about whether there was a kids' menu. It wasn't printed, and we only learned about a few kid-friendly options after asking. Not a big deal, but something to note for families. Would we come back? Absolutely! read more

Great drinks and the appetizers are fantastic. Bang Bang shrimp and the wings are delicious. I tried the White Fish for dinner. It was baked and then nestled in lemon sauce that was light and so fantastic. One thing a side of orzo would be fantastic with that fish to soak up the fantastic lemon sauce. Food for thought. I'll be back for that fish.... read more
