The food alone makes this place worth the 30-mile drive (we live in Clarkston) and the fast…read morepreparation seals the deal. Our breakfast was delicious, generous, and came out remarkably quickly, even though the place was absolutely hopping (always a great sign). The teamwork among the waitstaff was impressive. Our table was greeted right away by one waitress who got us started and let us know our server would be with us shortly. Shonda, our waitress, was friendly, upbeat, and genuinely welcoming--she even shared tips on local vinyl record shops. Brothers offers a wide variety of flavored coffees and fresh-squeezed juices, and the portions are huge. One thing I always notice in a restaurant is the mood of the other diners, and everyone here seemed happy. Many were clearly regulars who know the staff well. Great food, fast service, and a joyful atmosphere. We'll absolutely be back.

We loved everything about this place! It's a Sunday afternoon and we're still visiting our youngest…read moredaughter and her husband here in Flint. They've been taking us to all sorts of places that fit our style and taste perfectly, and somehow every stop has managed to outdo the last. This one, though? This one felt like stepping into another world entirely. The moment we walked in, we just stood there for a second taking it all in. The entire restaurant is wrapped in this romantically dark, eclectic elegance that somehow feels both upscale and comfortably dramatic at the same time. Exposed brick walls, glowing chandeliers hanging overhead like something from an old European theater, deep crimson curtains, antique-style artwork, velvet seating, and richly colored vintage furniture scattered throughout the dining room -- it looked less like a restaurant and more like the private lounge of someone far wealthier and more interesting than us. Frankly, I felt underdressed and emotionally unprepared for the furniture. One seating area had this gorgeous red Victorian-style loveseat paired with marble tables and ornate framed paintings that practically demanded you sip something expensive while discussing literature you haven't actually read. The dining room itself stretched into this moody maze of warm lighting, plush seating, and intimate corners that somehow made the whole place feel luxurious without becoming pretentious. It's the kind of atmosphere where even whispering feels classy. And then the food arrived. Now listen -- the prices initially caused a brief moment of silent marital eye contact. You know the look. The one that says, "Well... this had better be life-changing." Thankfully, by the first bite, the entire conversation was over. Suddenly the menu made perfect sense. Everything tasted boutique and intentionally crafted, like the chef personally judged every ingredient before allowing it onto the plate. The flavors were layered, rich, and unique without trying too hard to be "creative." This wasn't one of those places where they put lavender foam on a potato and call it innovation. This was refined, high-end comfort with artistry behind it. Every dish felt carefully balanced -- deep savory flavors, subtle sweetness where it belonged, textures that actually mattered, and presentation beautiful enough that we all paused before ruining it with our forks. Even the drinks matched the personality of the restaurant perfectly -- sophisticated, unusual, and just theatrical enough to make the experience feel special. The cocktail offerings felt curated instead of copied, with combinations that sounded slightly questionable until you tasted them and immediately understood the assignment. What impressed us most was that despite the upscale atmosphere, nothing felt cold or stiff. The entire experience remained warm, inviting, and genuinely enjoyable instead of trying to intimidate diners into pretending they understand wine notes involving "oak-forward melancholy" or whatever people say at places like this. We absolutely loved it and already decided we'll be returning before leaving the area. Some restaurants serve dinner. Others create an atmosphere you keep thinking about afterward. This place definitely belongs in the second category.

The cafe seems far more invested in cultivating an aesthetic than delivering quality food or…read morehospitality. Service feels slow and strangely disengaged, as though customers are interrupting the ambiance simply by ordering. What should feel warm and welcoming instead comes across as performative and inattentive. The food is especially disappointing considering the prices. The sandwiches are remarkably small and underfilled, leaving you wondering whether you accidentally ordered a half portion. The salads are even worse, which is essentially a pile of arugula. For a downtown business surrounded by residents and neighboring businesses, the lack of inclusion for the community and the repeated disregard for basic city noise expectations is difficult to ignore. Ultimately, Flint has several coffee shops that provide better food, better service, and a far more genuine sense of love for the community here.

My fiancée and I wanted Italian food but didn't feel like driving far, so living less than a mile…read morefrom downtown Flint I checked Yelp and Google and found Sauce Italian American Kitchen inside the Hilton. It wasn't busy when we arrived on a Monday evening, but what we ended up experiencing was honestly amazing. We sat down and asked for wine recommendations, and our server James immediately stood out as knowledgeable and genuinely passionate about what he was serving. He recommended the Rodney Strong Cabernet Sauvignon. We were not expecting much because the last few bottles we ordered at other restaurants were just okay, but this recommendation was absolutely on point. The wine was excellent and exactly the kind of red we enjoy. My fiancée wanted burrata. I usually don't care for it but agreed, and what came out was a seared burrata with sauce that was rich, warm, and seriously delicious. That was the beginning of a great night. James brought us bread with olive oil, balsamic vinegar, and spices, and we loved it. I think it was sourdough but I'm not an expert, I just know we kept eating it. For entrées, my fiancée chose the lasagna and I went with the chicken marsala. The timing was perfect, everything arrived hot and fresh just as we finished the appetizer and our first glass of wine. The chicken marsala was incredible. The seasoning was perfect, the sauce coated the spaghetti beautifully, and the mushrooms tasted fresh and flavorful. Easy 10 out of 10 for me. My fiancée loved the lasagna too and said it tasted homemade in the best way, exactly what she wanted after a long day working at the hospital. We also had the chance to meet the chef behind the food, Chef Khalilah, and she was wonderful to talk to. You can tell she puts real passion into what she does, and it shows in every bite. For dessert, my fiancée went with her classic tiramisu to end the night. I wanted an affogato even though it wasn't on the menu, and James said he had espresso and vanilla ice cream and would figure it out. He absolutely came through. Total hero moment. Honestly, this place deserves recognition. Great food, excellent service, and a warm, welcoming vibe. People don't always think of Flint as a destination for a great dinner, but they're missing out. Sauce Italian American Kitchen delivered an awesome experience from start to finish. Huge kudos to James, Chef Khalilah, and the whole team. We'll definitely be back.

This evening I ordered the following from DoorDash:…read more * Pasta Verdura (x1) * Side Caesar (x2) I very clearly stated to NOT place my cold salads on top of hot pasta in the bag. I have to state this because they always do this. When my order was delivered I received the Verdura and one House Salad, not my two Caesar Salads. In addition, the House Salad was on top of the hot pasta and was therefore hot as well. Furthermore, the pasta was swimming in sauce. I called the restaurant and spoke with a gentleman. I believe his name was James. I explained the errors to him. He did not apologize at all. In fact, he told me that I either did not enter the note appropriately, or it did not come through on their end. He said that he bagged up my order. He also said nothing about the salad screwups. I told him that putting cold salads on top of hot pasta is their common practice with my orders, he said nothing. I told him that I was bringing this to his attention so that they could improve this practice. Once again, no response. I said to him that not putting cold salads on top of hot pasta should be common sense. He replied with, "I'm not going to have this discussion with you. You can take it up with DoorDash. Well, I am going to take it up with DoorDash and Sauce just lost a frequent and loyal customer. If he bagged up my order he obviously did not check to ensure the order was accurate. His attitude sucked: no apology and blaming the customer. Disgraceful! P.S. No salad dressing with the House Salad.

The menu is really good it's full it offers lots of different choices for people of all ages. I got the bacon cheeseburger with french fries and a shake. The shake was absolutely delicious I could go back for just that. It was super thick not overly sweet. It came in a cool metal cup with an actual metal spoon I mean who even gives metal spoon these days. The bacon cheeseburger had crispy edges crispy bacon a fresh tomato and a soft pillowy bun. French fries were crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. I also had some fried pickles with ranch dressing. The fried pickles were nice because the batter was really thin often times the batter's so thick you can't even taste the pickle this was not the case. I was absolutely thrilled with all of my food it was tasty, it was fresh and hot, the place was clean, and the service was friendly I would go back any day and I would recommend them to anyone.
