9 new dining spots in Downtown Detroit; more on the way
When will it ever end? The roll call of new eateries is getting difficult to keep track of as seen in this Freep.com Article. I've only made it to two on the list - Ottava Via and La Feria - loved the first - the second was so so but they had just opened and I hear they have improved greatly.
Any reviews or thoughts? BTW the Freep use of term downtown is rather broad. Here is the roll call.
Wright & Co., 1500 Woodward: in the stately old Wright Kay building in the heart of downtown at Woodward and John R.
Antietam, 1428 Gratiot: This meticulously restored Art Deco spot in the Eastern Market district opened softly last week.
Taqo Detroit, 22 W. Adams: Opened July 1, this three-level, 5,000-square-foot restaurant features a big Mexican menu.
Downtown Louie’s Lounge, 30 Clifford: A hidden gem just west of Woodward and south of Grand Circus Park
Ottava Via, 1400 Michigan: Set in an atmospheric old bank… Patio with fireplace in back.
Two James Spirits, 2445 Michigan: first licensed distillery in Detroit since Prohibition… doesn't serve food yet..
La Feria, 4130 Cass: charming tapas place near Wayne
Craft Work, 8047 Agnes: Set in the artfully renovated former Harlequin Café in historic West Village
The Grille Midtown, 3919 Woodward: New building next to restored theater
