Why they're an Icon
Executive chef: Jared Gadbaw
From the OpenTable editors: Chef Jared Gadbaw led NYC’s acclaimed Marea to two MICHELIN Stars, and that fine dining pedigree shines at this sophisticated coastal Italian spot named Hour Detroit’s 2022 Restaurant of the Year. Expect seafood-forward dishes with pastas made in-house daily like squid ink lumache with shrimp plus knockout Italian-leaning wines, all served in a rustic-chic space with lush hanging plants and exposed brick walls.
