Detroit must Try

📍 City: Detroit, MI

Location: Ivy Kitchen + Cocktails,

East Jefferson Avenue, Detroit Michigan

⭐️ Rating: 8.5/10

I give them such a high rating for several reasons. When we got there we knew it would be more expensive for us. Cocktails started at $8, and other drinks at $3 or $4 for non alcoholic drinkers they did have two mock-tail specials

I ordered the cheapest side, $11, which was the butter bread. Because of the simple name I didn’t think it would be that good, baby it was so buttery and salty and the sauce. Omg 😝. Seriously it reminded me of eating in Korea where every part of the dish was intentional and I loved it.

My friend ordered their burger which was so juicy and had egg in it. It was delicious, every part was intentionally added and the burger was so flavorful and juicy 8.5/10

Service: their servers were very sweet thanking us for coming and attentive while serving. When they realized we were sharing, without asking they gave us extra plates and cleared the table as we ate.

In total after ordering a coke, water, burger and bread the total split was $19.99 for quality of food it was 100% worth it. We were both expecting the food to not be that good because we are both poor 💀 and kinda said fuck it we’re here. Only to be pleasantly surprised.

Layout: The only bad thing was the floor was a little slippery so it was hard to walk in my heals but it is possible.

The restaurant was spacious with several booths at seats at the bar without it feeling cramped. This made it a great spot for dates, popping in before or after going downtown and or just trying out good food.
