50 Best American Restaurants near Lathrup Village

“Hubby had a yen for some snackers, so we went to the only place you can get them - Olga's Kitchen! We dined in, and service was good. Our server was friendly and knowledgeable; she made sure to put our to-go dessert order in so that it arrived with our bill at the end of the meal. Hubby got the app trio and, in addition to the addictive snackers, he got zucchini fries and wings. Both were delicious. I ordered the Olga's Cuban sandwich with fries - also delish!“

“We have eaten dinner at seasons 52 in Troy, Michigan many times for years. We were celebrating a friend's special birthday by having lunch at Seasons 52. We didn't know they had a lunch menu. It was great: lots of choices. The service was perfect and the food was delicious as always. So glad we had lunch there today. Seasons 52 will be our celebration choice restaurant for lunch or dinner.“

“Food is always great, some of the best around Metro Detroit for sure. My only annoyance is the mystery around the tasting menu. I was there yesterday and my friend for the tasting menu and I ordered from the menu. He got more plates of course, but the things I ordered- tuna tartar, cabbage and steak were all part of the tasting menu, I just got a bigger portion size. I was hoping to have a much more variety which is why we ordered that way. Everything was delicious and service was great. Just consider the mystery of the tasting menu doesn’t really make sense if every item is just a small portion of what is listed on the menu.“

“Amazing place for meetings, dates, and dinner! Food's always great along with the service. The rooftop is always nice when the weather permits.Be sure to make a reservation.I love how they give back on Monday's!Kid-friendliness: My children actually enjoy the food!“

“I LOVE this place! I went on Monday for a meet up and got there a bit early to do some work. Eric was the host/server on shift and he was flawless! Made me feel super welcome, solved a problem for me super easily and kept everything running so well.I had a beet salad and it was amaaaazing!I can’t wait to go back ❤️“

“We need more of these non chain family restaurants! I had the Mexican omelette and it was delicious. There were so many great choices to choose from that it was hard to decide. I got great service from Elijah A! Definitely will return when I'm in the area!“

“Food was amazing. Staff friendly and courteous including the manager. Ashlee our server was excellent as well. Highly recommend this establishment. Ate here on a whim due to business. If I am ever in the area I will make a bee line to this place.“

“Quaint and modern little spot. Can definitely see it livening up during the warmer months. I had a reservation for my husband’s birthday. Aperol for me and a wise and handsome for husband. Both good. We shared the steak tartare and braised beef apps. Both were delicious. Nice just and flavor with the tartare. The whipped feta with beets was smooth and delicious. I got the scallops and risotto. The risotto Nero was interesting. I don’t know if they added cheese but there was almost a smaller gelatin consistency. Scallops were nicely seared. Other main was the tagliatelle with lamb ragú. It had a nice hint of spice and the fresh pasta was evident. Dessert was a VERY rich chocolate ganache-like dessert with small malt balls on top. There was a hint of thyme which was a good contrasting flavor.“

“Tallulah was a high-end dining experience set in a cramped New York restaurant complete with a celebrity sighting. Everything was delish made even better by the service. We had the Brussels Sprouts appetizer, the peanuts elevated this dish. Also, the mushroom ravioli, Amish chicken, and linguini with chicken was awesome. Side note, I ordered the parsnip soup. I have never had parsnips before. It was prepared well, creamy. I did not enjoy it. It was too new for me.Parking: Parking meter. It does take credit cards. $1.00 for 40 minutes.“

“Hidden Gem if I've ever known one. Every item from my favorite chicken stir fry to the chef salad are made to perfection. Unbelievably nice employees both over the phone and especially in person. The only excuse to not try it is because you hate yourself!“

“Great place , food was fresh and cooked just right. I’ve had hash brown at several places, they were always half cooked. But at golden grill hash browns were perfect and very tasty. Went back a second time and had fish and chips. They were absolutely perfect and the price was great too.“

“Amazing food and customer service! I've Never had a bad experience here. I've been goin here for years and I can say this is one of my top go to places! And I've never had something I ordered here that I didn't like. 100/10 highly recommend.“

“Shut up and take my money! Cleanest, crispest, freshest oyster selection that I have ever had the pleasure to lay my eyes on. A wonderfully knowledgeable bar staff, a kitchen that takes pride in their product, I really couldn't have asked for a more enjoyable experience. They're happy hour offers a selection of oysters professionally shocked by someone who cares about what you're eating. And at a price point that is extremely competitive to other oyest bat happy hour restaurants in the area you can't find a better quality morsel of sweet sweet goodness. I won't name names, but there are a few bars that have lost a loyal HH customer today. and that's really all I have to say about that.“

“Perfect dinner at Hazel's. Ate at the bar, where Heather is a wonderful and engaging bartender-server! Cocktail was well-made, the Rockfish was perfect, the potatoes were amazing! Service was top notch. Couldn't have been happier to choose this spot for a late dinner!!“

As we've gone here quite a bit, we've sampled a good portion of their menu and I can honestly say that everything we've had has been great!! And it appears to not be a secret because it's always busy!! Just a great place to be!!“

“Sandy’s has been around a long time. Friends have been going there for years and we finally made it there ourselves. Great friendly service with traditional bar food. While we did not have coney dogs, heard from others that is what they are known for. We will be back to sit at the bar for drinks and a burger.“

All the entrées and appetizers were out of this world. We cannot wait to go back! I cannot say enough nice things about this restaurant and its staff, the owner and the chef.“

“Perfect service and great food! Even the Bloody Mary he had was good. Had a breakfast sandwich on their house baked bread with a bowl of berries. Great choices on the menu. My ice tea was never empty nor was his coffee. Definitely will return despite being a bit far for us. Can't wait for weather to warm to sit on the patio!“

“Thanks to Mary Kate and her team at the Village Club, our wedding was nothing short of immaculate and went exactly as planned. We had a blended wedding (Hindu/Punjabi/German), and their amazing chef curated delicious Indian and German dishes. While wedding planning is stressful enough, Mary Kate eased any worries or concerns and made the wedding day super easy going! The logistics of a blended/dual ceremony wedding were tough and we were on a very tight schedule, but they kept everything running and on schedule. Thanks to them, May 28th will be a day we never forget :) We cannot thank them enough! If you are looking for a classy venue, excellent food, phenomenal staff and service, look no further! <3“

“The ambiance at this steakhouse was exceptional - the dimly lit dining room, plush leather seating, and elegant decor created a sophisticated and inviting atmosphere. The service was impeccable, with attentive and knowledgeable staff who made sure the dining experience was nothing short of perfect, and Mo is a very attentive manager. I had fresh, briny oysters as an appetizer. I then had the filet mignon, which was cooked to perfection - tender, juicy, and flavorful. The accompanying lobster mac and cheese was rich and creamy, with a delightful crunch on top. To cap off the meal, I had the decadent butter cake for dessert. The sweet, buttery crumb was complemented by a scoop of vanilla ice cream, creating a genuinely indulgent finale to an exceptional dining experience. Throughout the meal, I sipped on a perfectly balanced old fashioned, which added a lovely depth of flavor and rounded out the flavors of the various courses. Overall, this steakhouse delivered on all fronts - the service was impeccable, the ambiance was sophisticated and inviting, and the food was delicious from start to finish. I highly recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for a great dining experience.“

“We had another terrific dinner at BHG last night. So glad they started taking reservations under new ownership. The food hasn't missed a beat with the new owner. Caesar to start was very good. We had the crabcake entree (only on menu as an appetizer but can order as entree) and the braised lamb shank entree. Both great. And the peach mango blueberry cobbler....oh my.“

“Antonio's is a Rochester hills restaurant that has been serving good food for a very long time. . pancakes made from batter imagine real pancakes. brought me the cinnamon and plenty of butter. the syrup is of course fake but that's just the way it is in america. fake food industrial food, factory food but not at Antonio's at least for the pancakes. real food from real people. the wait staff is outstanding.“

“What a hidden gem! Great diner for breakfast in Royal Oak area. Banana Pecan Waffle was amazing. The candied pecans made a big difference. We also had Corned Beef Hash, pancakes, bacon, plus much more. Portions are huge. You cannot walk away hungry. Hot, fresh coffee, and excellent, friendly service. We can see why the Oak Diner is so poplar. DoorDash delivers! Nostalgic setting, loved the decor. Daily specials and loved the joke of the day board. Counter sitting or dining area. Will be back to try lunch one day.“

“From the moment we walked through the doors, we felt right at home! My husband and I have lived within 10 minutes of this gem for the last 7 years and were so excited to find it today! We are just mad we didn’t find this spot sooner! The pink Greek dressing is epic and we loved the grilled fish options! Love that the dinners came with included dessert and the staff were all very attentive and friendly! We cannot wait to come back soon!“

“Ate here for the first time today. Service is great w a glass of water brought to the table w/o asking. Portions are generous the food is good w very fair prices. Had the single biscuit & gravey. Bisquit was large but the gravey was luke warm at best not hot. A little disappointing which is why I gave a 4 star versus a 5. Will definitely come back to try other items.“

“Staff was friendly, and the waitress was nice and the food was amazing. No long wait time. My teenage daughter was unhappy with the choice that she made and the waitress seen the disappointment on her face. It wasn't big enough or didnt look fulfilling, so the waitress asked her if she would like something else and of course she did ( smh teenagers) she came right out and she was happy that was very kind of her of you ask me. No charge for the other dish which made my wallet happy too. Overall great place to eat and kid friendly.Kid-friendliness: They are very accommodating when it comes to the children little juice boxes cups with lids and when available crayons and coloring sheets. Understanding when it comes to the little ones being picky when dining out.“

“A special day. A special night. Couldn't be better. Arranged by our son and daughter. The waiter did everything, except eat our food. The wines were a delight and the steak and salmon were prepared with artistry. He guided us with each entre and the salad was shared by us with dressing aside. Wine, was by the glass and was both red and white and light, semidry and elegant. Our perfect dinner ended the perfect evening. Thank you 220 Merrill for a wonderful 50th.“

“I’ve lived in West Bloomfield for over 8 years and FINALLY had the opportunity to dine here. Husband and I went for breakfast and wanted to try somewhere new. We were greeted by the bustle of the open kitchen, friendly conversations between customers and staff alike, and immediately felt like we belonged here. Service was incredible from start to finish. The food was excellent and the portions were huge. We will definitely be back and recommending to everyone!“

“Can't really ever complain. The service is always great. Very kind lady who takes your order and takes interest in her customers. Is probably one of the only coney islands with great prices for food (not $10 for 1 burger) spent $21 to feed 2 people at a time where it averages $40+. Thank “

“My wife and I wanted to take our daughter who was graduating in 2021 just to celebrate, the three of us. Well due to covid-bs we didn't go. We went there tonight and had one of the best times out we've had in along time. Our server was Stephanie and she was spot on without being pushy or hovering. She had answers for all of our questions about the food and drinks, seeing as how both use some very different ingredients. We started with the White Whale Negroni, Pomegranate Bliss, and the Picante Pomelo and all of them were delicious. The beginner we went with was Fire Roasted Feta & Olives, yum. I didn't know feta could be so creamy, and olives are just a given as the mate. Dinner for my daughter was the Spanish Mackerel. I was proud of her for going out on a limb, because she has never had Mackerel. It was out of this world. My wife went with the Spinach Pappardelle. In house spinach pasta with a rich slightly sweet mushroom cream sauce. Very rich and she couldn't eat it all so we brought some home for a snack. I had the Jerk Seasoned Goat which was milder in flavor than i thought it would be. The share sides we had were the Duck Fat Fried Fingerlings and Creamed Spinach & Greens. All in all we can't wait to go back. If it wasn't already named I would call it The Top of Middlebelt. Great food and a lively atmosphere where you don't have to worry about being able to have a conversation, and dress I would say comfortable casual to nice night out.“

“Used to go there to have Polish Platter. the food is always good except the bread that comes with soup. the place is always full of people. I love their stuffed cabbage and pierogi. Portion is good and the staffs are so friendly. But don't try just regular american breakfast or french toast here, you are at the polish specialty place.“

“I had not been to a Beefcarver since I was a kid to the location on 8 mile. Stopped in today to the Woodward location. Food was good, the atmosphere is very nostalgic (I loved it), and the staff was amazing. The gentleman waiting on us was very friendly and very on top of things! We will be back.“

“I've been here 2 times. The food has been great. I'm not fond of the booths (the table top is too high from the seat), but It wouldn't stop me from going again.The chicken lemon rice soup is delish. I would highly recommend them.“

“Super kid friendly! All of the waitstaff here were so nice! Food was delicious. Black cherry ice-cream was great. Reasonably priced. Gave my daughter an entire coloring book and box of crayons to keep her occupied. Will return soon!Kid-friendliness: All the ladies here were so nice and accommodating to my daughter. Gave her a coloring book before the food arrived and a sucker on our way out.“

“Menu has some interesting choices. Food is good. This place serves food until midnight which is a real bonus as most restaurants stop serving at 8pm. This is a good place for large parties. I like the interior but I gave it a lower rating because it's do noisy it's hard to have a conversation but don't let that stop you. It's a great place and you should check it out.Parking: It's somewhat of a challenge to find parking in their lot but there is additional parking on the street (Woodward) and there is a nearby structure.“

“We celebrated my son's 40th birthday today at Bill's. Our server, Rachel, made sure that everything was beyond perfect and was an integral part of making this celebration extra special. Thank you Bill's, thank you Rachel and staff!“

“Nice menu. Amazing selection of beer. Large gluten sensitive menu. Music is way too loud. Gets busy, so call to be put on waitlist. Near Parking is limited.Dietary restrictions: Nice selection of gulen sensitive and dairy sensitive items. Ask the server to show you how to access the menu.“

“All my detroiters let me give you the lowdown on Nicky D’S on Grand River, the best food coming from a Coney Island , go by try it you will have a new place to eat at and NEVER DISSAPPOINTED. And don’t get me started on the staff great guys friendly and always happy to serve with a smile. Give them a try you won’t be unhappy!“

“I recently ordered sliders for a corporate event, and I couldn't have been more impressed with the quality and service provided. The team was incredibly professional and accommodating, ensuring that every detail of our order was taken care of flawlessly. Our guests raved about the sliders! From start to finish, the experience was seamless and exceeded all expectations. I highly recommend their services for any event!“

“I enjoyed my breakfast. I had a biscuit topped with sausage patty, poached eggs and sausage gravy on the side. Came with American fries and I got a coffee. My server was kind and speedy. The food was a nice portion, arrived hot, and tasted great. The restaurant is run down inside. While clean and well managed, it all needs a re-imagining. Carpet, booths, tables and chairs straight out of 80's casting. Never mind though, it's a good breakfast!“

“Been going there for several years. I like the service. No fooling around no loud talking, laughing out loud, just fooling around. It’s quiet, professional service, everybody working, and most of the time they got my eggs just like I like them can’t say anything negative about omega, and I always run into Brenda sitting right on the end at the counter. They know who Brenda is, but you guys might not. I’ll give omega 10 stars.“

The rustic decor and friendly staff made us feel right at home, and the menu offered a variety of comfort foods that satisfied everyone's cravings. It's definitely a place we'll be visiting again!“
