- DETROIT:2012 !August 17, 2011Located in a mansion made of pink jasper, this gem of a restaurant delivers a true leisurely dining experience with one of the best chef's in Detroit. If it's on the menu you must have the Pavlova.
StephanieAugust 20, 2012My favorite date night restaurant. Historic. Charming. Outstanding menu that changes with the seasons. Family owned and cared for. A Detroit landmark.
Jackson TMarch 19, 2019Great drinks, love the ambiance and the staff is all very friendly, seems everyone's got their own stories and don't mind at all when you wander, so look around!- Nikki Aton GregoryFebruary 27, 2012Sunday brunch is delicious, pricey but well worth every penny. It includes mimosas and they are great!
Dawn WhiteJuly 13, 2015Great food, great service, great atmosphere! Whitefish with capers and artichokes was superb!
Amy LebowskyOctober 27, 2015Snubbed by the Ghostbar tender. Funny how the folks in cargo shorts and tshirts at the bar were not. Disappointed in service and hors d'oeuvres quality.
Vickie FigueroaJuly 11, 2013Garden Party. Good time. Dave Hamilton singer very good. Thursdays in Summer.
Mira UncutDecember 23, 2011Some nice lunch deals. Lobster mac and cheese is yum! So is the orange chicken.
Jodie EppsJuly 28, 2013I am not impressed with the Sunday brunch buffet. The pre-fixe Sunday brunch was so much better.
Chris StergalasFebruary 8, 2012Even if you aren't up for a pricey meal, you have to check out this historic home.
Here for breakfast. Only ones in the house. Coffee- lukewarm at best. Food-not hot. Very sad. 😣
Anthony C.August 11, 2011Serivce is very slow, I would make sure you keep ordering to have a drink in your hands
Walked in, excited, with my daughters. Grumpy rude bartender - 👎👎👎 so we sat far away from the bar.
If there is a party in the courtyard wear flats. Your heels will sink in the gravel.
