AND WHAT A TIME IT WAS! I made reservations a month in advance for Saturday evening. The parking lot is quite small but the restaurant was easy to locate. Once we entered there was a line but it moved quickly. The hostess and front manager had such pleasant customer service. To our satisfaction we were seated within approx 10-15 minutes. The whole night we enjoyed listening and watching a live jazz band. So if you love jazz like me, this is a place to check out. The whole atmosphere was giving black elegant jazz vibes. The menu had lots of seafood options! For appetizers we chose the crab cake, oysters, and seafood queso! Talk about SCRUMPTIOUS!!!! The crab cake was my favorite! My fiance really enjoyed the queso. And my strawberry lemon drop cocktail was the bees knees! For entrees we ordered the whole lobster thermidor and stuffed salmon. Everything was perfect Half way through the night we were already planning on coming back. It was a perfect date night at the most perfect restaurant. Listening to jazz and eating amazing seafood; all I needed was a gentle ocean breeze and I'd be in paradise. I'm excited for my next visit.

Bread, butter and Savoytini
Autumnn G.

Note I patronized this restaurant 11/2024. Beautiful ambiance, not sure if I was supposed to let valet park my car but I self parked and they didn't say anything. I believe it's seafood restaurant and there was a slight fishy smell when I entered, a little off putting but not super strong. I just hoped it didn't cling to me when I left. It was FREEZING in here, I honestly believe they didn't have the heat on AT ALL. I ordered the savoytini and the lump crab cakes for my appetizer. The crab cakes came less than five minutes after i ordered them and were lukewarm making me think they may have been sitting/someone's else's order. They looked amazing but just tasted ok, they had more breading than crab in them. My savoytini was delicious, I was a little leery of the grapefruit but it was super subtle. We got complimentary bread fresh out of the oven with garlic butter, so fluffy and good! For my entree I got the stuffed salmon . Midway through our drinks and appetizers a live musician started singing accompanied by a guitarist, mood set! The portions were enormous, my salmon fillet was huge and so flaky and tender, cooked perfectly, the mashed potatoes were good but I think I would have enjoyed rice pilaf more with it. Overall I enjoyed my dinner at Savoy

Seafood Omelette and potatoes
Idnarb M.

Over the last few months I've heard several reviews of Savoy. So I was very much looking forward to the chance to visit. My dining companion and I decided to visit for brunch on Saturday. We were pleasantly surprised to find out that brunch was available both on Saturday and Sunday. We made same day reservations but when we arrived it didn't appear that they were needed around noon as there were only three tables with 5-6 people at each currently dining. The restaurant is much larger than it appears on the outside and had many available tables for seating including a bar. We were immediately sat upon arrival. The host was pretty dapper in his fashionable suit and nicely welcomed us to Savoy. As we entered the dining room we were greeted by the smooth R&B tunes being played by a DJ. The restaurant was noticeably very clean and the furnishings were nicely selected. The menu was more limited than I had expected, but did have a nice sampling of items available. When our waiter came to greet us he maintained the welcoming and special demeanor of Savoy. He was very personable and relatable. My dining companion ordered the seafood omelette with grits. I had the salmon patties with grits. We shared the pancake bites. The grits were amazing and cooked just like my grandmother used to make them. My dining companion shared that the seafood omelette was flavorful but didn't seem to have the different and the amount of seafood mentioned on the menu making the omelette over priced. Specifically, they only had three shrimp. The salmon patties were really good...I like them fried a little less firm...but that is a personal preference versus having an impact on the taste. The pancake bites were a little firmer than I'd like as well. But certainly were a unique way to enjoy pancakes in manner that wasn't too heavy. The drinks were great. My dining companion had a very simple Bloody Mary no additional flair was added to it such as garnishes but the base was strong and flavorful. I had the strawberry lemon drop which was flavorful and well balanced. I had a party of two and we recognized when the bill was delivered we were automatically charged for the gratuity. While I'm okay with this because I am a great tipper and I understand that not everyone is...because IYKYK....I just wish that it would have been more strongly indicated before receiving the bill and seeing it reflected there. My server was more than deserving of the tip and would have received it from me even if it wasn't automatically added to the bill. The waiter took a lot of pride in Savoy and voluntarily invited us back and informed us of the upcoming events and nightly happenings of live music. I certainly will return and am glad to see a restaurant of this caliber invest in the Eastside of Detroit.

Meatloaf
Tammie S.

We went to Savoy for a date night. The band was live and the music was wonderful. We had 8 pm reservations (like most ppl waiting) and we had to wait in a hallway 30 mins to be seated. We were seated at 8:30. Our waiter was great and attentive. We ordered 2 cocktails, crabs cakes, meatloaf and the fisherman's feast which was walleye and fries. When we receive the food, my fish was soggy and so were the fries. The fish was very oily, and the waiter immediately offered to correct the situation by frying a new order. Upon receiving the new fry of fish, it was crunchy, however, very bland and seasonless. The meatloaf was also overdone, and the crabcakes were a bit thick for our liking The restaurant is a great night out, but the food leaves a bit to be desired.

This is going to have to be my go to restaurant very nice and elegant on the inside. Customer service was just out of this world. I give the waitresses and the waiters 'n's a 9 and a 1 good job date night for my wife. I had to do it this Woman treats me so good and takes care of me on a regular and I've decided to take her out in the neighborhood. And 2 , the to the owner's thank you for having such a beautiful restaurant on the east side. We will be back again.

Dirty martini was perfect
Laurie P.

This little gem on East Warren near Cadieux did not disappoint. In fact, it exceeded my expectations. Love the art deco/jazz vibe - it's cozy, comfortable, and laid back. Service was excellent, our server Will was engaging, funny, and very helpful. I started with a delicious dirty martini, and a shared appetizer of calamari. The calamari was very good, but feel that the portion size could have been a little bigger. I chose the lobster/seafood pot pie as my entree, and I'm still thinking about how amazing it was. It was literally one of the best things I've ever had, no exaggeration. Flaky crust, served in a hot cast iron skillet, filled with seafood and a Cajun cream sauce with just the right amount of heat - it was comfort food on a whole other level. Dinner is served with fresh bread and butter, and we were able to get a refill on it, which was nice. I was sad that they were out of chocolate cheesecake, but I enjoyed the caramel sundae I opted for instead. They also had a decent band playing at a volume that I could still have a conversation with my dining companion, which I enjoyed and appreciated. When the bill arrives, know that a 20% gratuity is automatically added to the total. I was ok with that because that's what I would have tipped anyway with the good service we received. All in all, it was a lovely evening and I'll definitely return.

Wine list
Sally D.

Welcomed from the first moment we walked in. Easy entrance and large handicapped bathrooms. We had the walleye and the u10scallop special. Both were absolutely amazing. Gary, our server, was knowledgeable and helpful n making drink and wine choices Live jazz and a fun ambiance. Lighting was a bit bright, would prefer Lower lights and table lamps for reading menu. Overall, fantastic.

Seafood pot pie
Andrea D.

Excellent menu options make for tough decisions. Great "problem" to have. We landed on bacon wrapped shrimp and the seafood pot pie. Both were fabulous! The flavor of the shrimp was outstanding & the pot pie was a perfect cold nite comfort meal. Trish Shandor was the featured performer that night - lovely. Will return!

Steak with wild mushroom reduction.

Our table of four had a fabulous experience at Savoy! We had an early reservation, and were seated promptly. Sherry our waitress was warm and attentive and we were very pleased with her service. Finding out she was a fellow CT graduate was just a happy coincidence! We shared the bacon-wrapped shrimp appetizer, and each had a different entree. We had the filet mignon, chicken with risotto, stuffed salmon, and steak with pommes frites. The two steaks were of totally different degrees of doneness, and both were perfectly prepared! Each of us had a cocktail, and we shared a bottle of wine. To finish off, we had the chocolate cake and the key lime pie to share. Everything was delicious, and servings were generous (we all had carry out cartons). My only caveat is that the jazz trio, while very talented, was just a little too loud for conversation. We were seated near the band, which certainly had something to do with the volume. When I return (and I most certainly will), I will ask for a table in the back. An excellent dining experience, highly recommend.

Nate and I stopped in on our most recent visit to Detroit and had a lovely experience. The space is tucked away but had a surprising amount of outdoor space--we were there in January but I'd love to come back in the summer. We were greeted right away and given a spot near the bar. The menu includes cocktails, lots of wine, and several tasty food options. It was quite busy inside, so it took a bit of time for our server to come over to us, but we weren't in a rush. They had ten cocktails on their list and I tried the bullet proof soul and Nate got the negroni alla perra. The ingredients list for some of the cocktails include things I've never heard of, but at a place like this, I just know it's going to be good. Our drinks were perfectly balanced and very tasty. We also ordered the mortadella sandwich to split--this was delicious. It was pretty messy, but worth it. It was perfectly toasted and full of mortadella. Everything on the menu sounded delicious and I would love to try more of the food options. Can't wait to visit again!

There's artwork, a skatepark, renovated houses, gardens and a church that is now an art gallery. We stopped in to check it out and sat at the bar for a cocktail and snack. The waitstaff were super helpful in explaining everything and we finally picked 2 apps and got drinks. Both were amazing. There were friendly patrons all around and we chatted with other bar admirers. We checked out the coffee shop, Warda, but didn't purchase anything then, but have had several of their desserts since then and they did not disappoint. The atmosphere is wonderful, indoor/outdoor bar, great outside seating - not sure how this will work in the winter? They also have very pretty stone paths with multicolor stones mixed in for a very peaceful beautiful look. It inspired me to add some multicolored stones to my garden! I can't wait to return.

They recently built a rooftop patio and man, the view alone is worth the cost of admission... Except there is no cover for any nights (so far)! Their drink menu is primarily inventive amaro-forward cocktails, but don't worry, you can also just get a beer or a vodka soda or a wine, or whatever your pleasure is. There is also non-alcoholic selection. The crowd is diverse, all are welcome. Lots of youngins but also a fair amount of people that maybe grew up when Disco was contemporary. I say this because, no one should feel intimidated about coming here for whatever reason. I know some people don't want to come to a dance club for whatever reason but the are plenty of seats and spots where you can just stand and sway if you want but, it also has one of the best dance floors in Detroit if you want to really get down! They are now mostly just open Fridays and Saturdays, I think from 6 or 7pm to 1am and I've gone early, late, middle, and the crowd ebbs and flows so, that's a bonus too: you could go early and have a fun time and still get home at a decent hour or shut it down. The music is primarily 70s disco but it dips into 80s/90s/2000s. Most times, the music is playing and the analog TVs around are showing the original videos which is fun just to watch those too. The staff is excellent and inviting. Just a great spot and I'm looking forward to many more fun nights there!

They have TVs for the games and a pool table and darts maybe? Probably... I really like the craft cocktail menu that is mostly classics and around $8 to $10. Citadelle gin is their house gin so they are already tops in my book. I've tried the French 75, Daquari, and Airmail, all delicious. You can definitely get easy drinks like a gin and tonic or rum and coke too. Their house rum is Plantation, another good sign. They do have hard seltzers there but I think it's White Claw and not Topo Chico which seems to be the preferred brand in my demographic. And naturally, a variety of local and mainstream beers across all price points. Check their social media to see what games are playing and who is working the bar and if there are any specials running. They've only been open a couple weeks and it's fast becoming my before and after spot. Cheers!
