Frommer's Review

Steaks and seafood dominate the menu at this hip fine-dining and jazz restaurant located in Detroit's landmark Renaissance Center. Try the Blue-B-Q Bass on fresh thyme Vidalia onion hash; the Lobster Pontchartrain, two lobster tails dusted, baked, and finished with shrimp, lump crabmeat, and mushrooms; or the Michigan mixed grill, with cranberry-stuffed quail, game sausage, and venison medallions. Live music is a mainstay at this restaurant. Expect blues, jazz, and maybe a little big band from local and national acts every night of the week.

About Our System

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.

Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.

The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
