Central KItchen was a fan favorite for me and my crew, especially for the house music brunch. Service most times was pretty good. The food is wonderful. Sitting on the pationin the summer is the most fun for me.

I like the ambience better than their service and the drinks. The waiter couldn’t explain anything on the little to nothing menu, and the drinks were too strong. The tasting of the food did not meet my expectations. Overall, I tried it and would not return or recommend.

I celebrated my 55th Birthday at this establishment on 3-23-24. This was a VIBE. From the moment we arrived to the moment we left, all the employees made me & my guest feel welcome. Nya & Norris were the absolute BEST! They made sure our first time visit was remarkable as well as memorable. They were AMAZING and I appreciated their service. Thank you to the manager, who stopped by our table to check on me and my guest, making sure everything was going well. I recommend everyone to try Central Kitchen +Bar in Detroit.

This is by far one of my favorite go to spots for brunch or dinner. One thing you will catch here is a vibe--on top of eating good food. In my opinion, they have the best and most affordable/realistic brunch in Detroit. You are able to get a carafe and a bottle of champagne for only $22 dollars. This is extremely reasonable! The place is usually packed, but the service still stays on par for what's expected in that kind of fast paced environment. I also want to add that they usually have a DJ, who's on point as well. Lastly, I've been so many times, and my favorite dishes are as follows: wings and waffles, salmon flatbread, central chicken wings, calamari and the chicken sandwich. I highly recommend.

Yum. My work colleagues and I enjoyed the vibes and food. The chef came out to speak with us at our request, we wanted to let her know how bomb her food was. 10 out of 10..

I LOVE the energy at the bar in here, the bartender Angie is a gem and makes everyone feel so spoiled. The cocktails are yummy! I do however make sure I eat before I come because I don't enjoy the food there. The food is actually horrible if I'm being honest. So def use this as a pre game or post dinner place! & ask for Angie

A Lively Gem for Groups If you're looking for a fun night out with friends, Central Kitchen & Bar should be at the top of your list. This lively restaurant and bar offers the perfect blend of delicious food and a vibrant atmosphere that's ideal for groups. The menu is a delightful mix of contemporary American fare with creative twists. But Central Kitchen & Bar isn't just about the food. The drink menu is equally impressive, featuring an extensive selection of craft cocktails, local beers, and a well-curated wine list. The knowledgeable bartenders can also whip up something special to suit your tastes. What really sets this place apart, though, is the lively and energetic atmosphere. The spacious dining room and bar area provide ample room for groups to socialize and enjoy each other's company. The exposed brick walls and warm lighting create a cozy yet trendy vibe that's perfect for catching up with friends over a few drinks and shared plates. If you're looking for a guaranteed good time with friends, Central Kitchen & Bar is an absolute must. Whether you're celebrating a special occasion or just in need of a fun night out, this restaurant and bar is sure to deliver a memorable experience. Just be sure to make reservations, as this popular spot tends to fill up quickly.
When we had a great time at the restaurant under the host kept coming to our table like she was rushing us too go like she had a staring problem like is she would've have comb her hair maybe she would feel better then to be at work with bang and wild pony tail but our waiter was great I didn't like serving of the host she was rude far as customer service People never know who they talking to and a establishment I was respectful your true Kaine (podcaster) Wine and Dine With Kaine and's Friends.

This place is awesome!!! Angie was our server/ bar tender and she was killing it! She was making drinks for the whole place and had at least 10 tables too! She gave recommendations with no filter! Also Alejandro the manager was awesome! He knew angie had a lot going in and made sure she did not fail! We went for brunch" get the surf and turf!" Who doesnt love a shot of tequila!!!!
