    Panna cotta
    Sheila P.

    Tucked away off Main Street is this little Asian fusion gem. Our server was so sweet and encouraging of everything we ordered. We got a mix of apps and 2 entrees. I think their drinks are well crafted but I always regret spending $20 on a cocktail. Standout dishes were the papaya salad, crudo, and prawn curry. That was stellar. Surprisingly, I found the crab/pineapple rice a bit too "fishy." Coconut panna cotta and coffee were delicious. Loved the little condensed milk shooter. Would return for the papaya and curry.

    Stopped in on a Saturday night. Did not have a reservation but bar seating was available which offered the full menu. Very friendly and attentive staff. Provided recommendations regarding cocktails - the Gibson and the nod were what we went with and they were amazing. We split small plates of spicy crushed cucumber salad, sticky rice croquettes and chile crunch tofu. We split a large plate of crab fried rice. Delicious dinner and fun night out. Would recommend and look forward to a follow up visit.

    We came here for restaurant week and absolutely loved it. The ambiance is cozy, warm, and also moody with nice colorful accents. Food was delicious. Loved the hamachi crudo and fried rice. Service was also wonderful, our waiter was friendly and accommodating!

    Ambiance, vibes: 10/10 Mike at the bar was super cool. Our hostess was also super nice. She set us up at the bar and quickly got us to an available table. Food Menu: very concise. Love it. There's more small plates and a few large plates. My husband and I shared the octopus small plate, tofu small plate, and curry large plate. The octopus was way too salty. Octopus was soggy. Couldn't taste the other wonderful ingredients because of how salty the sauce was. Fried tofu was solid. Lovely texture. Black sesame sauce was nice too. Spicy green curry was nice not spicy lol generous portion of rice. I think the mint garnish would have been better as basil. Tofu was nice and silky. Drink menu: cocktails, mocktails, wine, etc. the drinks are better than the food. Got the hearts delight which was light and refreshing. My husband got the old fashion. Both good options. Seating: bar or seating. Good for small ground 2-4 people. Overall: lovely. Enjoyed the vibes. Nice, modern spot. Low lighting, good music. Good for a date too. Note: I'm from LA and I'm viet lol if this were a restaurant back home, this is a 3 for food.

    Really excellent dinner at Peridot during a visit to Ann Arbor to visit my sister over the summer! We snagged reservations for a Saturday night without issue. The restaurant is conveniently located on the main street in downtown AA, and we luckily found parking pretty easily. The space is modern and with a moody ambience but beautiful and cozy. We were quite comfortable in our booth towards the back of the restaurant. The menu is Vietnamese-inspired with very fresh ingredients and more unique spins. We started with the green papaya salad, which featured cucumber to mellow the spice, peanuts for crunch, a lime vinaigrette for acidity, and a touch of beef jerky to add a surprising element. Next was the ketchup fried rice, which was a top suggestion from our server. This was a simple yet delightful dish with great flavor from the ketchup and sriracha and a nice crunch from the crisped rice. The rest of our starters were rounded out with the fried tofu, which included pickled carrot and daikon and a black sesame puree (lovely combination), and the hamachi crudo with jalapeno and coconut and fresh herbs and veggies. We opted to enjoy most of our meal from the starter menu, and we really enjoyed each dish! The standouts were the tofu and the crudo. To round out the meal, we all split the sea bream, which was paired with a ginger citrus sauce and accompanied by lettuce wraps and rice noodles to construct each bite. This was an excellent main - quite fresh with a great balance of additional crunch, sweetness, and spice. We paired our meal with a few cocktails / NA cocktails (very much appreciate their extensive mocktail list), which similarly featured Vietnamese-inspired flavors. This amount of food was perfect for the 3 of us to split, and we wound up taking a bit of it home for the next day. Prices were very reasonable for the quality and quantity, too. Overall, our meal at Peridot was memorable and enjoyable and we would love to return to try other menu items and see the options change with the seasons!

    Overall good atmosphere for a nice dinner. The food overall felt more Asian inspired than specifically Vietnamese. The papaya salad and crab fried rice were good, would recommend to others. The prawns were alright, however would not return for them alone

    Peridot is a relatively new restaurant on Liberty, neighboring one of my favorite restaurants, Pacific Rim. It features dishes influenced by the flavors of Vietnam. The restaurant takes up two floors. I was charmed by the restaurant's ambiance and aesthetics: scarred brick walls, floral (crochet?) ceiling on the top floor, and large, leather booth seating. The menu was interesting. Divided into two sections, there were shareable plates and main/larger plates. I wanted to order so much from it: Brussels sprouts (of course), banh mi (always), pho, and cauliflower. I went with the papaya salad - I have been desperately seeking the perfect one since having it over a decade ago - and pork belly. The former was more savory than I expected, but good nonetheless. The pork belly was a huge disappointment - it was tough when it should have been succulent. For my main, I went with the Rohan duck. This included a wonderfully seared duck breast, tender and well-seasoned, crispy duck spring rolls, and pickled napa cabbage. I have to confess that I did not enjoy the cabbage; I found it too sour. Other than that, the dish was lovely. Other than a mishap with seating at the start, service was fine.

    Croquettes and ketchup fried rice. Delicious!

    The service and the food in this little hidden gem in downtown Ann Arbor are great. Our waitress came back again and again to check on us. The cocktail menu is quite extensive, including a nice variety of mocktails for non-drinkers like myself. The food is tapas style, with small plates and large plates. For a party of 4, 3 small and 2 large gave us plenty of food. The only knock was on the size of the croquettes. They were tiny, and we all thought they would be more substantial. And as it was my birthday, they gave me a free dessert!

    Duck bao bahn mi
    Ainsley E.

    I've been here four or five times and have had a great experience each time. Some favorites are the crab fried rice, kampachi and prosciutto, and the duck bahn mi. Their cocktails and mocktails are AMAZING, I should honestly just come here for drinks more. Service is generally pretty good though occasionally the kitchen may get backed up on an item or two. It's usually pretty bustling in there, full of couples on dates or groups of friends (there is always one LOUD table for some reason). A nice place to spend a night out, just be prepared to spend a little $ unless you're just stopping in for a drink and a small bite.

    I stopped off here after another restaurant had a wait. It's a small quaint place with a bar. it's a Korean based spot with small plates and some main entrees The host seated us pretty quickly. I ordered a nice cocktail called Viper. It had some herbal notes with gin and was pretty good and unique. I also got the crab fried rice which was also pretty good. Good flavor and a real crab based flavorful creation. Pretty good stuff. I also got the mango salad. It was good with a good unique taste and crispness. All and all, I'm glad I tried this place. I look forward to going back.

    Duck bao bahn mi
    Jordyn M.

    Went here last minute for a girls night dinner, there is a downstairs and upstairs and we got seated in the upstairs area. The ambiance was nice and our waitress was attentive and friendly. We tried a few different cocktails from the menu and appreciated the unique options! For food, the crab fried rice was our favorite but overall was not blown away by any dish. The duck bao bahn mi was tasty, but the grilled octopus was slightly chewy. We got the chocolate choux dessert to go but were very disappointed with a dry bread like texture. It was overall a good atmosphere with some tasty dishes but would probably only return for the drinks.

    Came for cocktails on a Saturday early evening, as we could not get a reservation. Sat at the bar, although there were lots of tables both inside and outside available. Girlfriends, they don't carry cranberry juice so keep that in mind. I will admit, I like a good cocktail, but don't like gin or whiskey much, so there were not many cocktails on the menu that sounded good to me. I discussed this with the bartender and he recommend the Odin& Fenir. It is a shaken drink with mint and cucumber. It was ok, and they offered to make me something else. The bartender suggested a vodka daisy. It was excellent. It is a craft cocktail bar, so lots of complex drinks. The ambiance is a cool, hipster vibe. I would go back to try the food. It smelled great.

For background, my boyfriend and I are from Ohio and ate here around the same time last year and have been talking about our experience ever since. My boyfriend suggested we go and get Spencer again for lunch and saw that they do not take reservations online. That is important to this review, that they don't take lunch reservations online. We got to Spencer around 2:06 and it was busy which obviously is no issue at all. When we first talk to a server, she said it would be about a ten, fifteen minute wait. Then a man came over and said about 40 minutes, again no problem at all. The issue is that they don't "do callbacks", so they don't take your number. You are expected to literally wait around the restaurant in order to hold your place, however the man said to just come back within 40 minutes. We were willing to wait, again with it no issue at all as we were expecting to wait anyway. We walked around downtown for about 30 minutes and went back just to check in. The same man said it would take a little longer, 15 minutes but that we were first in line and would be sat first. Again this is no issue, you can't gage on how long people will stay and eat so we were willing to wait. We let him know that we will be waiting outside then so we don't miss our reservation. A couple were actually in the same boat as us waiting outside. Finally, after about another addition 30 minutes a couple left the restaurant so the couple outside with us walked in and we were behind them. The man saw us, apologized and said they were in front of us because they "made a reservation online." Then crossed off their name below us on a sheet of paper. I'm sorry? I checked and you cannot make a reservation until 5 PM. So what in the actual world was that? I wish I was kidding and I know how I sound here but it was so obvious that he let them in before us. At this point we were in a catch 22, leave after waiting for an hour and thirty minutes at this point just to have them come out and look for us or stay for another promised "fifteen minutes". We waited since we did drive 2 hours and 30 minutes specifically for this restaurant. Finally, after almost an hour and forty five minutes we were sat. Almost half the menu was sold out. I just HAVE to laugh at this point. Apologies were said and at this point like what were we supposed to do? We ordered everything that was left, bread, olives, salami with carrots and a celery salad which they had to make a substitute with the salad. Whatever I would've eaten scraps at this point. I had one glass of wine and after all was said is done, they gave us last call. I am still laughing at this point. We ate our small dishes and promptly asked for the check, which was 58 dollars including gratuity. I am not even going to mention the countless people we talked to outside asking us to hurry up and eat fast so they can get in. This review is for no one BUT the management at Spencer. As someone who works in the service industry and understands set backs, you NEED to figure out your reservation system. Either you have one or you don't. Talk to your staff when these things happens so they don't lie to costumers when they accidentally seat someone before them. I loved the food, loved the atmosphere, but my God please figure out the seating and waiting system. I wish you all the very best!

I had the sliders and the Santorini salad, which has fried artichokes on it. The sliders were great. Straight up beef patties on a brioche-like bun. No filler, slightly thin, but still tastes great and beefy. Just what I wanted. The Santorini salad is about twice as big as I thought it would be for $9. I really liked the greens which included butter, red, iceberg and romaine lettuces. It also had goat cheese, olives and fried artichoke hearts. Yum, but I couldn't finish it.

And it has little pieces of fresh mozzarella in it to add even more freshness! Their fried mozzarella is also quite good, clearly freshly made. A friend had their salad and got blackened salad on it and really enjoyed it. They are happy to customize orders, whether that be food or drink.

For dessert we had the bread pudding- another star for the night! To the owner, terrific staff. Everyone we engaged in, were positive and knowledgeable. They are a great team! Looking forward to a second visit!

    A nice, more upscale dining experience. Not my favorite of the pricier options in Ann Arbor, but…read morenothing to complain about either! Would recommend for special occasions where you have a hankering for French bistro-esque food. Strolled in for dinner on the earlier end on a weekday and immediately seated. There's an extensive wine and cocktail menu to start. We shared the escargot starter, which was in my opinion, ok. I think I personally prefer the more classic preparation. This escargot has snails stuffed into a puff pastry concoction. Was there a hint of licorice flavor? That threw me off just a little! Also shared a French onion soup. Pretty good, with thick and tasty gruyere and plenty of onion. Personally was missing some crouton crunch for texture. I got the beef bourguigon for my main. This was really good! Tender, flavorful beef and veggies over pappardelle noodles. I would get this again! (Forgot to take a pic though!)

    A great night out! A cozy dining atmosphere with a lot of wine related decorations. Our booth was…read moreprivate and secluded. Our water was attentive and professional. The initial bread offering was delicious. Our starters of the risotto croquettes and mussels were perfect (lots of sauce with the mussels, could definitely use the bread for). Split the French onion soup which was excellent. The roasted acorn squash had delicious vegetables and cous cous accompany it. The puff pastry salmon was delicious as well, the sauce was fantastic. Unfortunately did not have any dessert (next time!)

    DropTop is one of those small local spots that surprises you with how well developed and…read morethoughtfully run it is. The burgers are easily the standout!! juicy, flavorful, and clearly made with care. The shakes are AMAZING, and the pizza is different and big size, making it great for sharing. The fries are another win: crispy, well‑seasoned, and addictive. The environment is nice and cozy, which adds to the charm, though I do wish they had more tables. That said, they've optimized the experience by offering a separate pickup door, which makes takeout incredibly smooth and efficient... a smart move for a small business. What really elevates DropTop is the staff. They're super friendly, genuinely welcoming, and very knowledgeable about the menu. Their recommendations were spot on, and you can tell they care about the food and the customers. Overall, I'd absolutely come back. The burgers were my favorite, but honestly, everything I tried was solid.

    The Detroit style pizza at Droptop is some of the best I've had. Generous toppings, amazing crust…read morethat's not too thick, and a sauce that has just the right amount of spiciness. I had the Super Sport Pizza and it was outstanding. The rest of my family did the BYO pizza options due to gluten and dairy sensitivities and said the crust was the best GF crust they've had, and were stoked to be able to have it Detroit style! We also tried the Motor Oil Wings and they were excellent! Nicely sized wings and a good portion. The sauce was rich and umami just as described on the menu. I loved the dedicated "To Go" area in the alley behind the restaurant, close to the parking lot; not having to go inside the main area to fight through the people (it was crowded the night we ordered), was a big bonus. The staff working the to-go counter was friendly, fast, and helpful. We ordered online and everything was ready exactly at the promised time. We will 100% be back!
