The Motown Bistro - Detroit

The food was outstanding, and the staff were friendly and helpful. The atmosphere was very relaxed.

The waiter sang "Happy Birthday" to me, and he has an impressive voice!

I visited this restaurant once before and had a great experience, but my recent brunch was quite disappointing. My shrimp and grits were overly salty, and I can't believe the chef didn't realize how spicy they were before serving them. I also ordered chicken, and the waffles were overcooked. When I asked the waiter for some butter because the waffles were dry, he brought me a tiny butter packet that wouldn't even melt on the cold waffles. I was extremely let down, especially considering the high price of brunch—$134 for a meal that I ended up not being able to eat. It's frustrating when you spend that much money and expect good food, but I should have suspected something was off since the place was mostly empty. Now I understand why. I hate to leave negative reviews, but I did inform the waiter about the saltiness of my meal. I’ve dined out plenty of times at other places for significantly less money, yet I’ve never been disappointed like this. Restaurants like IHOP do a better job with their waffles and are much more reasonably priced. Overall, this place doesn't live up to its prices, and I won't be returning.

Motown Bistro was recommended by several family members. Myy cousin and I decided to give them a try. Motown Bistro did not disappoint. The food was most delicious. Chef Don was on his game and Marvin the server made our evening very enjoyable. We will be going back. The Seafood Nacho was exquisite. Highly recommended.

My friend and I went for the all u can eat crab legs. We were disappointed that they advertise all u can eat but doesn't say that it's all u can eat in 1 hour. It's $75 for snow crab and there shouldn't be a time limit on it. I ordered the stuffed salmon instead. That entree was bland and could've been better. I cook salmon better at home. Some of the asparagus was overcooked. The ambience was ok and the service was fine. I did like my sausage gumbo but was not pleased with my entree. We gave this restaurant a try but we wont be going back.
