Reviews for Red Dunn Kitchen in Detroit, MI
This is a diamond in the rough. They have such amazing food and unique menu that you won't find anywhere else. The chef came out... and talked to us about the menu, gave us recommendations, and was very passionate about what they have to offer. Definitely willbe back and recommend it. I had the Quail a la chasseur (chef recommended) and it was delicious. My friend had the Venison Bolo,it was great too and they loved it. There aren't many places like this around, we will be back soon! Read more
The atmosphere is interesting and offers plenty of seating inside and out. The service was fast and helpful. We ordered the... steak, beer salad and fried chicken and each item exceeded expectation. The beet salad is amazing with the salmon add on andvery filling. The fried chicken was flavourful and tender. I did not try the steak dish but was told it was delicious. As an appwe ordered the Bangkok Brussels which were a huge crowd pleaser, definitely a must try. Read more
My wife & I found this restaurant via the Google girl suggestion after we attended Thanksgiving Day Holy Mass at St. Anne de... Detroit (2nd oldest continuous running Catholic church in USA)...Abbey; our waitress attended to our dining needs in a courteous& professional manner....NOTE: when she says," do you want to share that selection"; Raspberry / Almond milk Pancakes...just sayyes...because they are HUGE (see pics). My wife had the Blueberry French Toast that seem to just melt in your mouth...we sharedthe (Real) Hash Browns & 3-pc Rasher of thick Bacon accompanied by bottomless rich tasting coffee. Read more
I don't usually like to complain about food or restaurants, but I have had SEVERAL bad experiences at Red Dunn. The first time... I came, I ordered the mushroom and goat cheese toast -- and the eggs came well-done, even though I asked for over easy. I askedthem to remake it - and they did.. It was a cross between well-done and over easy. I decided to give them another chance,since the food was good otherwise. The second time I came, I ordered the Smoked Salmon Benedict. Again, the eggs werewell-done... I gave up and just ate them like this -- since I was starving and didn't feel like waiting on a new order. For myfiance's birthday, his family wanted to give Red Dunn a THIRD chance. We ordered several things, including the mushroom and goatcheese toast and the hash. We told the waitress to make sure our eggs were OVER EASY and not well done. SURPRISE SURPRISE!! Theeggs ALL came well-done (and my toast was burnt). We told the waitress, who took them back and when our eggs came back out, theywere well-done...AGAIN. The manager came over and comped our meal, but how frustrating is this? It's NOT that difficult to makeover-easy eggs. The sad part is, the ideas behind the food are great. The spices are delicious -- but seriously guys. If you'regoing to serve brunch, then get your eggs right. Read more
A great find with creative menu and good Happy Hour cocktails. We had the delicious roasted squash salad with smoked pulled... chicken, wild rice, goat cheese, and cranberry vinaigrette and the bacon wrapped duck with smoked apples, spiced squash puree,roasted brocollini, duck rind crumble, and pomegranate syrup. The green eggs and ham appetizer was a perfect starter. I'm not abig dessert fan, but the hazelnut crumb cake, pumpkin mousse, cranberry coulis, brown butter anglaise, candied pecans was out ofthis world. My husband had the donuts with butterscotch glaze with gianduja banana chocolate smoothie. Shane and Dustin tookgreat care of us. I can't wait to go back for la ultima palambra cocktail. Read more
We met friends here for drinks. While we didn't have an opportunity to eat this time, I'm still giving it 5 stars for design,... service, and atmosphere! The drinks were great, and the servers were friendly and efficient. It's a gorgeous place and we tookour cocktails out to the hotel's fire pit area which was so cool! Will definitely be back soon for dinner. The food lookedfabulous. Read more
Very cozy n contemporary both inside n outside, plenty of cozy places to lounge whether by an outdoor fireplace or an outdoor... stage for entertainment. Learned that Red Dunn got it's name from a famous cock fight that occurred illegally on this premise inthe days gone by, so don't take it out on the new owners. Located next to very innovatively remodeled hotel that once was aHoliday Inn. The hotel n restaurant both have a very revived look n seems very symbolic of Detroit's revival. The owners shouldbe commended for their bold endeavor. Now for the food n service, they were both excellent. The server was politely attentive ngave us the interesting history I just mentioned above.
