Stopped in with a buddy for a few bourbon pours. Really solid selection and not terrible priced either. Our server was a good dude, knew his bourbon too. Overall solid stop for some rare pours. read more

I really wanted to love Ravens Club because the atmosphere is great, but unfortunately the food and drink were pretty underwhelming. I ordered the ancho-chipotle meatballs. When my server asked how they were, I said, "I guess OK--they taste like they've been in a Crock-Pot for a few days." Her response? "OK, glad they're edible." Well... that pretty much summed it up. I also ordered a Moscow mule, which came in a regular rocks glass a premade mix no mint sad it's not a freshly made cocktail. Between that and the very limited menu--with several items crossed off--I just wasn't impressed. The atmosphere has a lot of potential, but when "glad it's edible" is the high point of dinner, I think that says enough. Sure if it deserves three stars if you're planning on eating, don't let it be here read more

Very shocked by this Ann Arbor staple. The place was empty when we arrived - and now I'm starting to see why. When the server/hostess starts the conversation with "let me tell you what we don't have before you order". The menu is already limited (which is fine) but to find out that two of the three main dinner items weren't available, as well as salads and key parts of the appetizer menu (no calamari, no meatballs, no steak, no salmon......). Drinks took a while to be served which perplexed me because there were only three tables active and no one at the bar. We were comped a free round because the server forgot to enter our order... Drinks were "ok". The Raven Old Fashioned was watered down. All in all - this was a dinner I had planned with a business associate and I was excited to show off the place. Instead, I left embarrassed. read more

Absolutely love this spot!! The ambiance is perfect for if you want to grab a drink and catch up with a friend. It's not too loud so you can hear everyone in your party talking and the vibe is very cozy and welcoming! We loved the espresso martinis and they have quite a number of specialty drinks on their menu that I can't wait to return to try! Definitely don't skip out on their dessert menu, they had four seasonal options that all sounded incredible and we tried the smores cheesecake! At first I thought this spot was more of a bar but they also have a food menu, would definitely return to try more of their menu! The service was great and very helpful in navigating the different options on their menu. This spot is definitely a gem and I can't wait to try again! read more

I came here on a Saturday around 8pm, it was busy but not overly so. There were a lot of empty tables outside. We were sat quickly, and it took quite a while to get a drink, and even longer to order. I got a tequila drink that was not great and I didn't finish it. I also got a house salad the smash burger which was definitely not smashed just cooked. We also got the hush puppies which were good. read more

Really enjoyed dining at this establishment. I ordered an old-fashioned, which was really good with their homemade bitters and I also got the Smashburger, which was excellent with caramelized onions and really good attention to detail. The atmosphere was suitable for just hanging out or a romantic dinner and the service was friendly and pleasant. Overall would definitely recommend. read more

My wife and I were downtown on Friday night. The city was definitely hopping, and every restaurant was busy, with wait times for tables both inside and out. We decided to walk around a bit, listen to the band that was playing before we had dinner. The Ravens Club had always been a good destination, good food, service, ambiance. Unfortunately that was not the case this evening. We noticed 3-4 empty tables outside, so we went in and asked the hostess if she had a table outside for 2. She did not know....and had to ask another server if there were any tables available outside....seriously? We saw empty tables, and as the hostess isn't that their role? The other server told her there was, so we led us out to a table. while we were inside, we noticed for 7:30 on a Friday night they were not busy, open seats at the bar and several open tables. After we were seated, no one came for about 5 minutes. Then a server passed us, and said she would get us waters. That never happened. Another 5 Minutes passed and another server approached us and asked if she could get us something to drink? We ordered cocktails, which seemed to take a long time, considering they were not busy. My drink came, but not my wife's Cosmo. She said, the bartender was working on it. Her drink finally came a good 5 minutes later. during all this a group of 6 had been seated outside near us, they were given waters and menus, but we noticed no server ever came back to them for the entire time we were waiting for our drinks, so they all got up and left. Based on the initial experience, we decided not to have dinner here. Not sure what is going on with this business. We need good restaurants downtown that offer farm/table, fresh diverse menu options. That's what this used to be. It's sad if this is what The Ravens Club has evolved to. The restaurant industry is difficult especially in today's environment of higher costs. However hoping ownership fixes these issues and gets back to a service level where they have employees who care about the business and takes better care of the customers. read more

11-30-2025 Great vibe and wonderful service (Carson B). The food was delicious , we tried the savory charcuterie with lots of interesting cheeses and meats. Other items on the table, steak frites, TRC burger and chicken sandwich. Every item came out hot and juicy and full of flavor. The live music was OUTSTANDING, a mix of folk, world and jazz. We will return. read more

I was really impressed with my most recent visit! We were downtown and already feeling hungry around 4:45ish on a Friday, and wandered into Raven's Club, unsure if we were going to do early dinner or more like a snacking vibe. We ended up going for it. Husband and I got two of their large plates and split them. Both were beautifully served, generously portioned, and very tasty! The Churrasco Flat Iron Steak was cooked perfectly to order, with unique accompaniments like grilled tomatillos, stewed beans, and a zippy chimichurri sauce. The Shrimp & Grits was phenomenal, with juicy flavorful shrimp on saucy grits, and an extra pack of flavor in the sausage and hot peppers. Both dishes had a spicy kick, which I enjoyed! To drink, I got the One Two Punch, a seasonal cocktail with mezcal, pineapple bell pepper syrup, basil, and lime. Super tasty and nicely presented. Felt a little milder in the alcohol content. read more

REALLY great spot! We came on a Sunday, and they had live jazz music. It was outstanding, they were unbelievably talented!

It had a wonderful and refreshing sweetness to it! read more

I thought Aldi own brand garbage bags were the thinnest commercially available products on earth but the chicken in the chicken sandwich at Ravens Club is even thinner and it comes coated in a thick crunchy batter. I'm amazed they can get the batter to stick so well to something thinner than a human hair. Service ok. Smash burger pretty good tbf. Quite nice dining room decor. Bathrooms do not match the vibe at all - very dated and not pleasant. read more

The Raven's Club We went here for dinner. It was a Sunday night, around 5:30pm. My husband ordered a Manhattan, that came in a dainty glass. I got a non-alcoholic cocktail, a prickly pear shrub, that had a delicious tangy flavor. D. got the same thing. The Raven Club was kind of empty when we were there. It was quite early, so maybe that's the reason. The club has these great colored lights that line the front room. It is more of a darker restaurant. The vibe is very clubby, and it gives you the feel of being in a bar. We ordered hush puppies, brussel sprouts, and steak frites to share. The jalapeno cheddar hush puppies came with a delightful mayo-based remoulade sauce, with a Cajun kick. The brussel sprouts were garnished with bacon, garlic oil, and lemon. They were delicious. The steak was extremely tender and savory. It came with perfectly seasoned French fries. It was definitely enough to share. D got the jerk chicken thigh, which she enjoyed, although I didn't try it. We tried to order dessert at the end, but the choices were not appealing. The total for the meal was $110, which I thought was a fair price. The service was a bit slow. It was a Sunday night and kind of quiet. The menu changes based on the season. I really prefer the winter menu, as opposed to the summer choices. I'd give it a B+. I wish the dessert choices had been better. read more

Visited this spot for a work happy hour. It was 19 of us. Drinks arrived in decent time. The server and host were courteous and nice. The cocktails here are pretty good. I tried their Old Fashioned and it was definitely one of the tastier ones I've had. The greatest part about The Ravens Club is the atmosphere... the vibe of the place. The lighting and the fixtures that make that lighting happen are carefully picked and positioned. The wall color and decore and the accents and details are all impressive. I dug this place. PS: The team I was with ate various appetizers that all seemed delicious. I only tried the truffle fries and they were good but a bit soggy. read more

Delicious menu and great time! I came for restaurant week and had such a wonderful experience. I got the spicy Brussels sprouts which were amazing as well as fries and the pimento cheese dip. Next the soup was also great. A super flavorful tomato soup. Lastly I got the vodka pasta which was just superb. Wonderful flavor with a good kick of heat. read more

We came for drinks last night. I've previously enjoyed an evening out with friends on football weekends & had a favorable impression. It's vibe is classy and inviting - low lighting and intimate interior. Good cocktails, which were enjoyed last night. Service was great. The knock to three stars is due to the excessive noise last night. I don't recall it being unbearably loud on my previous visits. But last night was different. The music was noticeably loud when we arrived and went to blaring by the time we left. No reason for it to be that loud. As a result, nearby groups were shouting further making conversation very difficult. It was as if they had an identity crisis- classier vibe or college crowd? I hope the noise was an aberration because with the cozy booths and inviting atmosphere this could be a terrific place for those wanting great drinks without the screaming college bar experience. read more

Food was just okay. They don't tell you about the extra charge for music until after you get your check. It's a $5 fee a person.

A favorite spot in A2. The food & drinks never disappoint, with a great happy hour! My fiancé & I met here on our first date so it holds sentimental value as well! read more

First things first- our servers (Sammy inside, Jordan outside) were awesome and both get 5 stars. This was the first weekend of in-the/street seating. It was full when we arrived so we went inside. VERY dark. But Sammy made everything great. Went outside for dinner. Ordered 2 apps and a steak entree to share. Took way too long to arrive and everything came at once. Plus the steak was overcooked- ordered medium rare and was delivered at least medium if not more done (see picture). But everything was still good and we were not unhappy. Downtown Ann Arbor is really fun! read more

Been coming here for years but took a long break over the pandemic. Sad to see there doesn't seem to be happy hour specials anymore (it used to be epic) but they still have the deviled eggs and cheese plate I came to love. Scaled down cocktail list compared to years past, but still solid drinks always (recommend the Cabin on Saturn and Old Fashioned). Cool loungey setting. They can accommodate larger groups but it's also nice to sit at the bar or a two-top for something more intimate. read more

I ordered a High 75, which is a French 75 made with Japanese whisky - it was delightful! I think I may try making these at home. Nate got the Cold War, a vodka based drink with the house made ginger beer. Both drinks were good and we would've tried more, but were sticking with one drink each at different bars in the area. It did take quite awhile before anyone came over to take our order. The first thing the server told us was that the kitchen was closed, which was sort of funny since the host also told us when we walked in the door. No worries for us as we already had dinner plans. The atmosphere of this bar is super dark and moody, with dark wood and carpet everywhere. It wasn't quite the vibe I was looking for, but we enjoyed our drinks and the service was ok. The food menu sounded good so I'd probably stop by again to try a meal and grab another drink. read more

The Ravens Club - Classic old fashioned and a signature cocktail. - American Near Me - Ann Arbor, Michigan

Saturday 7pm. Sunny/cloudy. We sat outside and it was very nice, not too crowded or busy. Appetizers that were recommended by the server was good. Coconut shrimp $10 and steak on toast $11. Although, the coconut shrimp did not have much of coconut flavor, it was still good. It would have been amazing with more coconut flavor. Steak on toast had amazing tender beef on the toasted bread. Steak was rare, which was perfect. We were so glad to take the advice from the server. Main dish poke bowl, $17, which I could choose from salmon and tuna. Salmon comes partially cooked. I chose tuna and it was the better choice. At least for me. However, I wished poke bowl contained edamame, seaweed salad and kimchi. It would have been really good with these additions. I recommend this place to try at least once. Sit outside. Strongly recommended. read more

I've frequented the Ravens Club a few times this past year, and I'm adding it to my go-to list for cocktail hour & light bites in downtown Ann Arbor. Why? Because I can't get enough of their Judge Holden cocktail: tequila, chili liqueur, guajillo, pineapple, and fresh lime. If I'm not in the mood for a spicy sip, I also love their take on a bramble with vodka. The ambiance is moody -- with old-school lighting, a long wooden bar, and exposed brick wall. I've only ever tried their starters while hanging out with friends; we definitely keep coming back to truffle fries, bacon brussel sprouts (huge), and cauliflower wings. Service is also consistent - fine & friendly! read more

I've never been here before but came with some friends. We all got the Cabin on Saturn cocktail which was yummy! We got the Korean fried chicken sandwich, fish tacos, and gnocchi. I really enjoyed my sandwich - it had just the right amount of kick to it. The fries it came with were good and crispy (better than the fries and fried chicken sandwich at Jolly Pumpkin in my opinion). However, service was a little slow. I don't know if it was because they were understaffed or what.... read more

We've been here twice, most recently a week or two ago, for our first dine-in experience as a couple since indoor dining was reopened in Michigan. The Raven's Club has an upscale pub feel, with a varied menu. They have a big drink menu too; I went with an shrub, which was a little sweeter than I would have liked but still quite good. The first time we came here, we got a Beyond burger and lettuce wraps. This time, my wife made a meal out of three appetizers. The only problem was that she did not realize each appetizer would be nearly a meal's worth of food. The truffle fries were the biggest single serving of fries I have ever seen outside of a state fair. The gnocchi were served in a cast iron skillet with kale, mushrooms, and a sweet balsamic sauce. The saffron risotto was creamy and stuffed with mushrooms, with a more subtle saffron taste. They did not skimp on the mushrooms in either dish and for that my wife was very grateful. By the time my food came out I was pretty full from helping my wife with her appetizer bonanza. The Korean fried chicken sandwich was truly excellent. The piece of chicken was giant and juicy. The kimchi slaw, sriracha mayo, and avocado made the sandwich salty, juicy, tangy, creamy, and spicy. This sandwich had it all, and was huge to boot. Prices are reasonable. The service is attentive. The ambience is hip and casual (I feel relaxed just thinking about it). This place has got it going on, with a menu of straight up bangers. If you're in Ann Arbor, come eat here. read more

The Ravens Club looks like the sort of place Don Draper might have frequented on Mad Men. And, indeed, there is a massive selection of various liquor, as well as a nice selection of beer. And, the decor is what a classy saloon would have had back then (and in decades before). But, that's where the similarities end. The menu is eclectic: you can get gnocchi, fish tacos, risotto, pad Thai, duck breast, burgers, and kale and quinoa salad. We started with a cup of soup of the day, which was French onion soup. The chef was a bit heavy-handed with salt, but otherwise it was silky and delicious. I barely had a chance to get to my second spoonful of soup when our sandwiches arrived. I'm not kidding: I felt like about five minutes from the time we placed our order. In another place, I would've guessed that these were premade, but they clearly weren't. My wife asked for a custom made grilled chicken sandwich, which wasn't on the menu, and it showed up along with my sandwich. Everything was literally piping hot. We had to let it sit for a minute before we could eat it. I wish I could get service like this everywhere. I went for the Korean fried chicken sandwich. Extra points, by the way, for the fact that they call it fried in the menu. Enough of this marketing nonsense that we see these days where they call fried things crispy. But, oh my goodness, was it ever crispy. It was served with a kimchi slaw and fresh avocado, with a mango gochujang aïoli. There were many outside dining options, but it looked like rain today, so we ate inside. Everything was done with the upmost safety, and I saw tables being cleaned immediately after people left. I want to make a bad pun about Edgar Allan Poe's the raven, but the famous line from that is "nevermore". But, I will definitely be back here next time I am in town. read more

Okay so drinks were good and fairly priced. We ordered the cauliflower wings and for me they were under-cooked but flavor was good. Dinner wise the duck was tough and lacked flavor but the purée was delish. The burger was great- I think a little under cooked for my preference but overall would get that again. The fries were upgraded to the truffle fries and so yummy. We will be back but likely to try other food items. For the price (and coming from chicago) we expected more. read more

Would be.a speakeasy vibe, but the place was bustling! The staff didn't skip a beat the entire time, with food, drinks, and service as prompt and attentive as one could possibly ask for. I ordered the hand pulled old fashioned (okay, two) loaded fries and deviled eggs. The fries and eggs were proper. Hand cut potatoes double fried (I'm guessing by the taste) and tossed fries. The eggs were equally delicious. I feed everything I saw come out of the kitchen and bar made me want to return. Come here. read more

Great friendly bartenders making unique cocktails. Sit at the bar for a Cheers experience.

it's such a cute cocktail bar! the decor of the bar is adorable with soft lighting, a variety of bottles as decor, and handwritten specials on the blackboard. It feels like a place people come to catchup. In the summer there's a patio too, which we tried but it got too windy to stay. The Ahi Tuna was very good, finished the whole dish! The trc burger was a regular burger, nothing special, but super solid cripsy bacon toppings and fries. The mocktails were a little too sour; we would have preferred sweeter drinks since both featured fruit so heavily, but ended up being a little disappointed. Probably will get your vitamin c in for the day though:) read more

I was excited to come here based on reviews and was sorely disappointed. I ordered a gin and tonic and the tonic was flat, then ordered a chix sand which that sounded delicious but had barely any slaw and was super friend and dry. Overall bad experience.

We're running out of new places in Ann Arbor to try! This is one spot that we hadn't tried, so this was going to be the night! We had heard good things about the drinks, so we started there. I had some amazing rainbow sherbet beer - perfect for a beautiful summer night! We weren't that hungry, so we decided to focus on appetizers. We had the coconut shrimp, whitefish spread, gnocchi and risotto. It was all really good - it's hard to pick a favorite! We loved sitting outside and people watching the crowds on Main Street.
