It was the 1930s and Six Mile and Conant was like any street corner in Detroit… people walking to the market, neighbors helping neighbors, and friends meeting at the local gathering spot now known as Buddy’s. Buddy’s existed as a “blind pig,” skirting the State and Federal laws that governed the on-site sale and usage of alcohol. Booze was available there. The owner at the time was August “Gus” Guerra.

    The food was outstanding, the ambience lovely and serene, the service was impeccable. So often "fine dining experiences can take too long, but this was perfectly balanced. We were in and out in about 90 min, which was just the right combination of attentive but unobtrusive. It is pricey though, so be prepared for that.

    Food and Service were excellent. We went for lunch on a Wednesday, and it was crowded, Glad we had an Open Table reservation. My wife had the Grilled Shrimp appetizer as her main and I got the Diavola Pizza (No. 8) as my main. They were both great and large enough for us to both have a meal for take home. We finished up with the Pumpkin Gelato as perfect desert for this time of year. Our Server, Katherine F, was outstanding.

    It was a great birthday celebration of my song became 22 yeas old! We had 4 appetizers: spicy squids, octopus, scallops and polenta with wild mushrooms. All were amazingly flavorful and delicious. My son had a tomahawk, while I enjoyed Mediterranean fish (I forgot what kind). That tomahawk was so huge but tender. It came with mushroom butter sauce and potatoes more condiments. We concluded this dinner with crème brûlée and flourless chocolate torte and a cup of decaf coffee. I’m so glad that my son is now old enough to appreciate these dishes wholeheartedly! And the service was impeccable, as usual. They were so attentive and everything was timed perfectly!! I really appreciated all aspects of the dinner!!
