Why they're an Icon

From the OpenTable editors: Chef Jared Gadbaw led NYC’s acclaimed Marea to two MICHELIN Stars, and that fine dining pedigree shines at this sophisticated coastal Italian spot named Hour Detroit’s 2022 Restaurant of the Year. Expect seafood-forward dishes with pastas made in-house daily like squid ink lumache with shrimp plus knockout Italian-leaning wines, all served in a rustic-chic space with lush hanging plants and exposed brick walls.

Nice ambiance with an open floor plan. Server was responsive to our request to be in a favorable position to allow for time to get down the street to the Fisher for Les Miserables. The Bucatini...Focaccia, delectable! But the very small Espresso Martini (4) accounted for 60% of the total??! Don't come here for drinks...they're small AND over the top expensive (clearly a profit grab), which made for a less than desirable total experience.

Loved it! It was our first time visiting and we will be back! The fritto, ravioli, beef shank pasta, and chocolate dessert were amazing. My only wish is that had more cocktails on the menu. The service was great and the sourdough starter was the cherry to start the evening.
