What are some of the best restaurants you've been to around the state? Off the top of my head, here are some of my favorites...
R. Stanley's formerly in Three Rivers then Portage. Unbelievably good soul food and desserts. I heard he reopened a place in Traverse City called Soul Hole recently, but haven't made it there yet.
Brio at Partridge Creek in Clinton Twp. I've never been disappointed here. I love the chicken and potato risotto. Lots of good Tuscan Italian food.
J. Alexander's in West Bloomfield. Good modern American food and a nice atmosphere.
Roma Cafe in Eastern Market area of Detroit. Awesome authentic Italian food. We did our rehearsal dinner there and tried everything on the menu. It was all fantastic.
Fishbone's in Greektown. Good seafood choices. By far the best location. St. Clair Shores is also good, but Southfield is terrible.
Buddy's Pizza in Southfield. Nice location and AWESOME pizza.
Clarkston Union. Great food, interesting variety and very lively.
Parthenon in Greektown. Awesome authentic Greek food. Haven't been there in several years now and definitely need to return soon.
Fleming's in Birmingham. Great steak and wine. I was in there a few months back with my wife (a vegetarian) and a good friend and we tried a few different appetizers and wines and each ordered a different entree. All were excellent.
I'm still waiting to make it to a few other newer local restaurants. I've got a gift card to Roast that I got over a year ago, but we haven't been able to get reservations in the two or three times we tried. We tried to go to The Union Woodshop in Clarkston twice recently but they don't take reservations and they have a couple hour wait on most nights. I still haven't made it to Slow's either.
