    The charcuterie board was fantastic. We had the Delmomico, burger, spinach ravioli and the lobster/shrimp ravioli. All 4 meals were really good. The service was good but there were little things that could have been better.

    The food was good, but service seemed to be short and it was rather noisy.

    We had early reservations and selected the pre-theatre menu before going to The Orpheum. The pre-theatre menu rotates, and one of this week's entrees was shrimp and lobster ravioli. It was delicious! The shrimp had a nice, grilled flavor, and the sauce was light and perfect. I hope they add this dish to their permanent menu. Our entire dinner experience, from cocktails to dessert, was wonderful!

    We went for pre-Valentine lunch. I had a wonderful chicken salad and my husband had the redfish over grits. Both were yummy. I later met up with the sales manager of whom I wanted to meet regarding my birthday and other stays. He was so kind I think his name was Brian, but thanks complicated pilgrim for your excellent service even though it looks as though there was one waitress acting as a bartender as well, but very capable thanks again

    First visit to Complicated Pilgrim. My wife and I went for brunch prior to a Tigers basketball game. Service was spot on. Pimento Cheese Deviled Eggs are a must! My wife had the Steak and Eggs which she enjoyed. The only issue was the steak was slightly undercooked. My wife ordered medium but it was cooked closer to rare (not even medium rare). However, the meat was such good quality that she still enjoyed the steak. I had the Cooper Street Burger and it was outstanding. Parmesan fries were a perfect accompaniment. I look forward to visiting again soon.

    Today was a Ladies’ Day out with lunch and the theatre , Hattiloo. The experience was amazing. The food was delicious from the shrimp and grits to the quinoa bowl. I have been a few times before; but, my two friends had not. We enjoyed ourselves so much that we are planning to visit again soon.
