First, the food is very good. Presentation is excellent. I have visited almost all of the expensive restaurants in the Detroit metro area and the food is comparable.\r

Now that we got that out of the way, service gets an F. Expect to be ignored for considerable periods of time. If you ask for the wine list, you are put in a ""queue"" for the sommelier (we waited about an hour). And then he has a surly attitude. Ask him to describe certain wines and he will pick one for you - ""I really don't recommend the other ones."" How about telling the customer about the wine and letting him/her make the decision?\r

The restaurant will admit anyone - wear your ""I'm with Stupid"" T-shirt, apparently as long as you can pay you are in. And yes, bring the whole family, including the babies who roam around the restaurant bothering other patrons. Laugh at the top of your lungs, walk around the restaurant drunk. Nobody seems to want to stop you.\r

When I'm going for an expensive meal, I want top-notch service and a memorable night out as much as good food. This restaurant clearly fails the test.
Pros: Good food and presentation
Cons: Noisy, poor service
