    Buttermilk Fried Chicken Sandwich
    Carrie G.

    Venue has been on our list for a while, and we decided to pop in to try the lunch special that they were offering for Restaurant Week. I loved the atmosphere, very modern and vibrant. Elliott gave us wonderful customer service, very attentive and friendly. We both had the buttermilk fried chicken sandwich, and wow was it tasty! The breading was crispy yet light, the chicken very juicy, and the toppings were the perfect offset. I also indulged in a happy hour cocktail, it was a season special cranberry mule with orange Kettle One, very refreshing and yummy!

    Walked into an amazing venue...if I might borrow from their name. The ambiance is incredible. Very modern and chic. I was told I needed to visit when in Ann Arbor. I was not dissapointed. I met Thad, the executive chef who was sitting at the bar chatting with his brother. I asked about their stand-out cocktails and Erin, my bar tender, recommend the SMOKY OLD FORUM (Bourbon, Amaro, Demerara). It was smoked to order, with a small cloud of smoke when served. Tasted like perfection, and perfect drink for the late fall season. I wasn't here for a full meal so I ordered the CAROLINA WINGS as a snack. The sauce was made with peaches and remained savory while on slightly sweeter side of savory. They were really good! Highly recommend. I also give them accolades for being environmentally friendly with biodegradable paper straws. Erin was an amazing bar tender. She was friendly and inviting. I would come here often if I lived in the area. They are very close to the big house (Michigan Stadium) yet off the beaten path.

    Wild Boar Bolognese with homemade pasta

    Went again and it was FANTASTIC! Great food, drinks and service! Love the look. Can't recommend this place enough! Looking forward to trying their brunch soon. 10/10.

    Very modern place! I like the decor and how open it is. I had homemade pasta with shrimp and it was tasty but kind of pricey. It would be a cool place to host a party or get together. Lots of free parking right in front of the venue.

    Salmon Cakes

    So a couple of friends and myself decided to randomly take a trip to AA to check out a new restaurant that he thought looked pretty great. Venue by 4M in Ann Arbor offers a truly massive space with some great aesthetic qualities, boasting an impressive visual appeal that could make it a standout location. However, despite its grand scale and stylish decor, the venue regrettably lacked any real warmth, leaving the overall atmosphere feeling a bit cold and impersonal. Our dining experience was a mixed bag. We ordered the salmon cakes and a salad, and both dishes were undoubtedly delicious. The flavors were on point, and the ingredients seemed fresh. That said, they were also quite basic in their presentation and composition, not offering anything particularly innovative or memorable. The most frustrating aspect of our visit was the service. It took a significant 15-20 minutes for anyone to approach our table, and we had to repeatedly ask for someone to come over and take our order. This lack of attentiveness was a considerable detractor from the meal. While I wouldn't rush back for a casual dining experience, I do believe the large space would be fantastic for a group party or event. Its expansive layout and attractive aesthetics lend themselves well to accommodating a larger crowd, where the emphasis might be more on the gathering itself rather than an intimate dining experience.

    I recently booked Venue by 4M for my team's office party, and it was a great experience with a few areas for improvement. I chose this place based on a friend's recommendation, and it definitely lived up to the hype. The venue was perfect for our gathering of 30 people, and the staff did an excellent job accommodating us. Since it was the day before a holiday and the restaurant had been closed earlier in the day, we planned the event the same morning. Despite the short notice, the staff was incredibly flexible and made the entire process seamless. They even assured me over the phone that we could take our time without feeling rushed, which was a thoughtful touch. The restaurant has a unique charm, as it's a former grocery store that's been transformed into a modern, art-inspired space. The vibe is fantastic--sleek, clean, and inviting, with beautiful artwork and thoughtful design elements throughout. One of my favorite features was the large windows, which allowed us to enjoy the stunning sunset while we dined and socialized. It created the perfect atmosphere for our gathering. We came in for a happy hour gathering, and while the overall experience was pleasant, the food was just okay and could definitely be improved. We only tried their happy hour menu, so I can't speak to their main menu yet, but I'm hoping for a more flavorful experience when I return to explore it. Our server was attentive, friendly, and regularly checked on our large group to ensure everything was going smoothly. The appetizers were fresh and flavorful, but I feel the drink menu could use some improvement. I tried the Tropical Thunder, and while the name and description suggested a bold, strong cocktail, it was much sweeter than expected. A better balance of flavors would have elevated the experience. The bread with olive oil was simple yet flavorful, and the chips paired with different dips added a fun variety to the meal. Chimichurri offered a refreshing, tangy twist. The fried calamari was perfectly crispy, while the pizza brought a comforting and satisfying touch. Brussels sprouts chips was so crispy and full of flavor. The rosemary table spread added an aromatic elegance to the experience, and the chicken wings we had were served in different flavors, each one bursting with its own unique taste. One feature I truly appreciated is that Venue by 4M doubles as a rentable workspace. They offer open desks, conference rooms, and video conferencing setups, making it a great spot for professionals. Additionally, the ample parking space adds to the convenience of hosting events here. With its welcoming atmosphere, diverse themed menu options (including American, Asian, and Mexican), and versatile offerings, this venue is an excellent choice for both gatherings and work-related needs. I'll definitely return to explore their main menu and see how their bar offerings evolve. Overall, a great experience that has the potential to be even better!

    Chicken Wings
    Winter B.

    I really wanted to rate this place higher because I'm a big fan of their coffee shop. Unfortunately, my dinner experience was underwhelming. We shared the rosemary bread, and I ordered the chicken wings and Caesar salad. Nothing was outright bad, but the food lacked flavor and didn't quite meet expectations, especially given the price. That said, the service was excellent, the happy hour deals are great, and I really enjoy the decor. It's a solid spot if you're with a large group or just stopping in for a drink. Hopefully, they'll consider upgrading the menu to match the quality of the rest of the experience.

    Porchetta Hash with biscuit and side of sausage gravy
    Tiffany S.

    My 2,000th review and last review of 2024 goes to Venue by 4M! I've mostly known this space as Lucky's Supermarket or "that new co-working place." I didn't realize they had full blown restaurant operations! It's helmed by Executive Chef Thad Gillies ...who is most recently from Logan - which we loved loved before it closed, so I had high hopes. We specifically came for their sunday jazz brunch - stellar idea and execution! I'm sure someone with a good ear with sound would say that the acoustics aren't perfect for live music but you know what, I'm not the sound expert. You can be asked to be seated a little further away if you do want to be able to hear your dining companions better though. For food - I couldn't really decide, I really wanted the Biscuits and Gravy but ALSo the porchetta hash..so I made it work by ordering the Porchetta hash, choosing biscuits as my "bread" on the side & adding an order of the sausage gravy ($5). Flavors were good! The hash got a little soggy texture wise with the soft porchetta, so I went home and airfry-ed my leftovers and saw great success! No notes on the biscuits and gravy - I'll probably order that as my main next time. Diamond, our server, was fantastic! Perfect balance of attentive while still giving our large group some time to settle in and chat. She also split the bill easily for us which is always always appreciated! I'll be back to check out their happy hour as well as dinner sometime!

    Shrimp carbonara
    Ainsley E.

    So this place is...weird? They've done a decent job breaking up the large space so it feels like a restaurant and not a grocery store (this building used to be a Kroger and then Lucky's Market), but it still has a kind of hospital or cafeteria vibe. Maybe it was the lighting, the high ceilings, or the smell of cleaning product or something, but it was off to me. The food was good, but definitely on the expensive side for the ambiance here. We ordered: - Arancini. Pretty typical, I think the sauce was the best part. - Carbonara (add shrimp) - this was quite good, best part being the clearly fresh-made pasta. - Bison Bolognese - my partner liked my carbonara better, but I thought this was fine. Wouldn't order again. - Tiramisu - this was disappointing because it's our favorite dessert, but this must have been sliced and kept exposed in the fridge because the bottom layer of sponge was DRY. Tiramisu is not a dry food. We were bummed. We agreed we wouldn't come back here unless we needed to book a large group of people and needed the seating. They certainly can accommodate large parties here without issue.

    Eggs In Purgatory
    Grace K.

    Had a blast here coming to celebrate a friends' birthday recently. There were about 15 of us that came in for brunch on a Saturday morning. I ordered the eggs in purgatory was basically a shakshuka (poached, jammy eggs in a tomato-based sauce) that came with toast. I was able to swap my toast for zucchini bread free of charge. This was so tasty! Highly recommend the zucchini bread. It came with a bit of butter and jam on the side. The main dish was also delicious. The venue itself is beautiful and so spacious. Our server was friendly. Will definitely be back!

    Tropical Thunder
    Beth H.

    Venue is now our go-to place for great food. The service is impeccable, the atmosphere is Modern and clean. The chef, staff and owners are truly in it for the love of food and service. We've been here three or four times since my last review. Took our 15-yo niece for the amazing pizza. Met friends for happy hour, and we like to meet for an easy weeknight dinner or take our friends to impress. Venue has it all. Great concept for co-working, events and dining. Tropical Thunder cocktail is my favorite!! Spicy yet refreshing.

We were able to call a few days prior so that they can make special side dishes that were Allergen friendly. We were celebrating our 13th anniversary and though I couldn't eat a lot of the special food When celebrating, everything still felt very special and the things that I could eat were absolutely phenomenal. I was very impressed. I would say this is a high 4, with one star down because even after talking to the manager and reminding the weight staff, the kitchen still brought me out two types of dairy with my appetizer, which led me to be a little paranoid the rest of the meal. After looking through the ingredient list which were provided promptly and graciously my trust was restored, but I always get a little bit nervous when it comes to allergies when I see that the staff in Kitchen and front staff are not communicating well. It was still a lovely meal, and I appreciate them going above and beyond to accommodate my allergens. I got the crabcake, surf and turf, a special request drink from the bar that was nonalcoholic, and a sorbet with fruit. I'm still dreaming about the crabcake and surf and turf. It was so good and cooked perfectly. I can't wait to try to re-create the crabcake at home. I was astounded at how delicious it was. I really enjoyed the fresh mango and strawberry in the salad that came out with a crabcake. Even though the crabcake sauce and the salad dressing both had dairy and were served with my appetizer, it was yummy without those sauces. It would've been nice if someone offered me an alternate sauce or had thought to tell me that they contain my allergy and I thought we were on the same page. I got a cherry limeade drink from the bar and it was very delicious. I don't normally get drinks but it was kind of fun to get something fruity and fun for a celebration. The bread was delicious and didn't contain the allergens so I was able to enjoy it without butter. I am not normally a sorbet girl and I probably wouldn't have normally ordered dessert here but since we were a celebrating, I wanted to try some thing sweet. I couldn't believe how good the sorbet was. It was a little rich, but it was so tasty. I think it would've been really excellent paired with a very light not overly sweet vanilla bean cake. It was so fruity and rich that it needed something to balance it out. I'm not complaining. It was excellent in a very nice end to the meal. Overall, 4.5 stars all of the stuff was lovely and it was nicely decorated for Christmas. Thank you so much for the lovely anniversary dinner!

Flaky crab and plump shrimp were surrounded by pork sausage and baby potatoes. Our hands were dripping in the butter sauce by the time we finished, but we didn't mind.

The Black Pearl Roll unfortunately, is not worth the pricing. $25 for a roll with mostly cucumber. It's also not very consistent in sizing. Once it was so large I could barely fit it in my mouth and the other times very small. If you plan to charge $25 for a Sushi Roll it should contain a good amount of Sushi.

Definitely my go-to entree. Thai-Style Calamari (5/5): One of THE main reasons I love Pacific Rim so much. This is the best calamari appetizer I've had. Lightly breaded and fresh. The sweet chili sauce is perfect. Thai Peanut Noodles (4/5): The noodles had great texture and the Thai peanut sauce was delicious. The tofu wasn't really crispy and I personally would've loved the option to add some meat. Lamb Dumpling (4/5): Lots of meat in the filling and didn't taste gamy at all. Limited time special. Shrimp Shumai (4/5): Really enjoyed the wonton wrapper. Shrimp flavor came through nicely. Limited time special. House Salad (4/5): Light and fresh. The soy based dressing was sweet, slightly acidic, and not at all overpowering. Warm Chocolate Cake (4/5): Delicious cake with a warm, gooey inside. I personally don't like coconut or chocolate and fruit desserts, but I still enjoyed this a lot. Creme Brulee Tasting (4/5) : Green tea, pumpkin spice, and ginger creme brulees. Loved getting to try a little bit of each flavor (green tea was my favorite). Spiced Caramel Pear (3/5): Not my favorite since I don't generally like cooked fruit. The mascarpone cream and shortbread were good though. RATING SYSTEM 5 - Great (Need to get this again) 4 - Good (Would get this again) 3 - Ok (Might give this another shot) 2 - Not Good (Won't get this again) 1 - Bad (Telling people to avoid this)

    Still my favorite restaurant in Ann Arbor!! Menu is pretty…read moremuch the same for past 30 years but that's a good thing because everything is great!! Decor is clean and comfortable. People who work here are the nicest. Can't wait to go back!!
