    Food was excellent! The restaurant gave us a table outside on a beautiful Friday night. The food matched the beauty of the evening; we could have sat there all night.

    8 of us tried out this cute new place in Farmington Hills. Our waitress was very friendly, but I feel like she was very overwhelmed. We ordered most of the appetizers... would recommend all of them, except the shrimp. The waffles were good, but didn't have any type of cornbread taste. Salad and soups were great... French onion soup was amazing. Everyone enjoyed the main dinners, except the steak frites was dry. We had to ask for zip sauce, because it just needed something. Even with some of the food being a miss, I would have given this place 5 stars, but I had to take off a star because we received our salads/soups and dinners at exactly the same time. It was such a let down... you don't know if you should continue with your app so it doesn't get cold, but then your main meal is cold. You should never bring both out at the same time. To top it all off, there was plenty of room and no one else coming in. Also, they need a few more dessert options. We had to go down the street for dessert, as the two didn't sound appealing. The pictures are of the apps... everything else came out in such a rush, we couldn't get pictures.

    Really good food and service! Ambiance is chill and welcoming! The espresso martinis were great and the apps were delicious!

    Only been open about six months now, but when it comes to appetizing and flavorful meals they hit the ground running! Order a table or sidle up to the bar and chat up the friendly bar staff. The fish and chips is a winner. Huge haddock filets are delicately battered and fried up moist and flaky. Add an extra filet for an up charge. And the fries!--they're shoestring skinny and fried in beef tallow. You can't stop eating them. It's the kind of place that makes you want to try a little of everything on their menu. Go with a group and sample each other's dishes. So glad we stopped in!

    Such a nice warm environment and our food was amazing! They were able to fit us in even with them being busy and our food came out FAST! Not to mention... the cook made a special order for my Uncle who really wanted the schnitzel. We stopped through from Ohio and we will be back for sure. Everything is made fresh and from scratch with love. 10/1

    Such a charming brunch spot right in the heart of downtown Farmington! I love the outdoor patio seating just as much as I love the food. My first visit, I went for the spicy chicken sandwich; the second time, the French toast--both were amazing. I will, however, steer clear of the Paloma carafe next time... waaaaaayy too tart! Epresso, yes!

    Wedge and Pasta Rosa with Shrimp

    Wedge was great. Pasta Rosa with Shrimp - not an ounce of seasoning on the shrimp. Sauce was great. Would have been really good if something was done with the shrimp

    Deconstructed Potato Skins

    We had a wonderful evening celebrating our anniversary dinner at Spruce + Ash. Aside from sharing it with my favorite person, the highlights were the incredible service, cozy ambiance, and amazing food. Started with a refreshing Berry Smash (N/A) and we shared the Deconstructed Potato Skins that were filling, flavorful, and so unique. While we originally planned on the braised short ribs and lamb chops, we ended up ordering the Fish & Chips and Chicken Tenders. I know, you might wonder: Why order those at an upscale restaurant? Because they were that good! We finished the evening with a decadent slice of Carrot Cake...a special nod to our wedding, where carrot cake was also our choice. From the moment we walked in to the moment we left, the entire team was welcoming and attentive. The owner was a delight to chat with, clearly passionate about what they do, and it shows in every detail. The only thing we could say that moves the pros and cons needle would be the level of noise. If they are busy the conversation noise increases and make it difficult to chat at your table. You are engaged in the table to the back even if you are seated near the front. There is outdoor seating available. If you're hesitant about the pricing, don't be it's worth every penny (Note: They do not accept cash for payment, only credit cards; however, cash can be left as a tip.). Beautifully presented, high-quality food is an experience, and Spruce + Ash delivers on all fronts. We're already planning to come back for brunch and can't wait to see what else they have to offer. If we could go weekly, we would! GOALS: to try everything Lastly, our server Kyla personality was the hidden gem. When you can say you are proud of the dishes they serve and you look forward to showing off new creations...you are an ideal addition to the team

    Steak Frites
    James H.

    Went here tonight for the first time. Decided to sit outside on the patio since it was such a nice night. Also much quieter than sitting inside. Really liked the drink menu, but the bar selection for other things like amaretto was a bit limited. The short rib was excellent. The fries cooked in beef fat were also top notch. My only complaints were that the server seemed very inexperienced and the steak I ordered was very well done even though I ordered it medium rare. Seems like they're still working out some bugs, but we'll definitely be back.

    What a gem! Spruce + Ash is a hip little spot with big flavor. I came for the vibes and stayed for what might be the best fish and chips I've ever had--crispy, flaky, and huge. The fries? Perfection. The cocktails? Balanced and creative (I may or may not have had two). The service was warm and attentive without being overbearing, and the whole place just has this cool, laid-back energy. Can't wait to come back--this one's officially in the rotation.

    I really wanted to love The Franklin, but unfortunately the experience missed the mark…read more We arrived at 4:00 p.m. on a Saturday and were the only party in the restaurant for quite some time. The waitress was abrasive from the start and immediately informed us that there was a time limit on our table. Looking back, that's actually pretty comical, considering the restaurant ended up taking far longer than their own stated limit to serve us. We were there celebrating our friend's baby sprinkle and hoped for a relaxed, enjoyable afternoon. Instead, the service was painfully slow. Drinks took an exceptionally long time to arrive, and the wait for our meals was even longer. The delays were so significant that one member of our group eventually had to leave before fully enjoying the gathering. Had the service been friendlier and more attentive, the long waits may have been easier to overlook. But between the abrasive welcome, the slow pace, and the overall lackluster experience, our celebration felt more frustrating than enjoyable. I hate leaving negative reviews, especially because I was genuinely excited to try The Franklin. Unfortunately, this visit did not live up to expectations, and it's not somewhere I'll be rushing back to.

    Why haven't I tried here sooner?…read more Toasted oaks is located inside of the renaissance hotel located by 12 oaks mall parking lot. There is an entrance for just the restaurant which makes it easier to enter. There is also close parking next to it. I had no wait on a Friday evening, which I'm sure isn't common, but I was also there about1 hour 30 minute - 2 hours to closing so it could be why. I was still given great service and a wonderful cooked dish. I ordered a mocktail (virgin spring in wing) that had was supposed to have smashed strawberries. I barely tasted the strawberry (I did not have some in the drink) as the soda water overpowered everything thing else. I probably should have said something, but I didn't. If I order next time I will. There were many great things on the menu, but I opted for the bone in pork chop. While I waited I did ask if they had bread service and they have corn bread. First I was like "hmmmm idk". Once it came to the table I loved it. I usually don't butter my corn bread, but I tried their butter with it and I enjoyed the pairing. It was perfectly cooked well enough how pork should be, but still tender so it wasn't dry. It had this whiskey sweet fruity glaze over it which was delicious. I would have preferred it on the side, but that's just a personal preference. The green beans weren't soggy, they had a slight crisp to them. A great flavor. I opted out of the loaded baked potato and just got a plain with butter , sour cream and chives. Overall for what I ordered I didn't think the price to be too unreasonable. However, this place can get pricy with other things on the menu. Their menu might also change because I seen photos of this place and those items weren't on the menu. I would come here again for a dinner alone, with my spouse and even with friends.

    This place had definitely not met my expectations for a fancy restaurant that serves a burger for…read more$20 and a sirloin entrée for $40. We had started off with a mixed board charcuterie board which held an assortment of different cheeses, meats, breads, and veggies. This board was underwhelming; for $20, it felt poor quality-wise. The breads felt stale, and the vegetables were sad and tasted horrible. Putting aside the negative comments and the absolutely blazing campfire behind my seat, my service was amazing. We had Rayna Rose serve us, and she was so kind, friendly, and beautiful. She showed professionalism while providing a comforting tone and attitude to the total environment. While observing her with other tables, I saw that she not only treated everyone with the same kindness and respect but really put her best effort into her work and service. After around 30 minutes of waiting, our entrées came out. I ordered their signature Oak burger, and my sister ordered the sirloin entrée. My burger came out with soggy buns, stale fries that weren't crispy, and ketchup that was average. My sister's sirloin was bland, dry, and the balsamic glaze made the overall dish sour, and not in a good way. We were able to finish the soggy burger as a team, but the sirloin was unbearable. Overall, I give this place a 5/10.
