We went to the Statler before a play at the Fisher theatre. We told the server our time table and she accomodated it without rushing us. The food was excellent, the atmosphere was lovely and the service very good. It is one of our favorite restaurants in downtown Detroit and we will definitely return.

Ron and Dave were extremely welcoming and accommodating. We came to the red after the performance and we were not sure of the exact time that we would be there. They made sure we had a table and they made our experience lovely. Victoria was our server and she over delivered. Thank you for the perfect ending to a wonderful evening.

Where do I start?….. Music was very soothing and set the mood perfect. It was just so right, kind of weird. Next, food was outstanding!! Burger was the best I’ve had in a very long time. Daughters got the roasted chicken and I tried it and it was mouth watering! Just such a HREAT dinner. Orange cream cheesecake was spot on. 2 meals, bottle of water, cheesecake amd 25% tip was just over $85.00. Well worth it! This is on my list of favorites now. Thank You The Statler!!!!!!

My first time here was for the Sunday brunch. The most impressive part was they nailed the scrambled eggs. I got the Breakfast Americanass it comes; no modifications. The fluffiest and tastiest eggs I’ve had from a restaurant without having to doctor them up myself. The entire brunch was a pleasant experience.

It’s a really cute place. The service was amazing. The food was good, but very over priced for what it was.
