Erica Copeland: Meatloaf is delish here! Mac and cheese, spaghetti, and greens are all good side items!
ᴡᴡᴡ.Graham.linodxz.ru Davis: Right up there for the best fried chicken in Detroit. Well worth the wait. Mac and cheese and peach cobbler also good. Even if there is a long line, it will move quickly.
Travel Channel: Andrew Zimmern and Detroit News columnist Chuck Bennett came to try classic food that Martha Clay brought up from Mississippi. Andrew eats oxtails, chitlins & okra. As seen on Bizarre Foods America.

VisitDetroit: In downtown Detroit’s historic Eastern Market, it’s the oldest Italian restaurant in Detroit, dating back to 1890.
David LaDuc: Best Italian restaurant in Michigan (and, probably, elsewhere, too), bar none. Roma Salad is wonderful. Pasta is great. The service by waiters in tuxedos is superb. Been going here for 50 years.
Christy Cumbo: Lasagna heaven! Thinking about it still the next day. Gnocchi was a little bland probably just in comparison to the LASAGNA which was so deliciously rich.

Eater: With some of the best happy hour specials in town, plus a meaty main menu that would make any carnivore drool, this is anything but your average hotel dining room. [Eater 38 Member]
Tom Shea: Order the Brussel Sprouts! Don't worry - it comes with bacon.
Marie Jacobson: Definitely one of my favorite restaurants ever. Stellar service, excellent food, pleasant atmosphere. A little pricey, but definitely worth it.
