Reviews for The Whitney in Detroit, MI
Awesome experience. We went for lunch and to see the nutcracker ballet. The ballet moved between rooms and we followed along to... watch. Only 50 dinners allowed per show so it's very quaint and intimate. No pictures of the ballet so I have nothing to sharethere. The food and service were superb. If you have the opportunity to experience dining and a show it's very worthwhile. TheWhitney was decorated for Christmas. Read more

I was born and raised in metro Detroit but had never dined at the Whitney. This changed this week for my 41st birthday... celebration we decided to do the $40 off your meal the Thursday before. I was so concerned it would be a let down, but I canhappily report it was not. Our waitress, Anne, was amazing. I had planned on doing the Wellington, but had some reservations.She asked me questions about what I look for in a steak and recommended the filet instead. She was 100% correct. It was sogood I didn't really need the steak knife. The appetizers were on point. I added a lobster tail and since visiting Maine in2004 lobster has never been the same. This was the closest to Maine lobster I've had in nearly 20 years. My husband commentedhow did they get it so velvety? After dinner Anne personally toured us through the mansion. She gave a great tour and showedus so many little nuisances of the mansion. This was my first time at the Whitney, but it will not be my last! You will payfor the experience, but it really was worth it. Read more
Where to begin with this place?! The service was absolutely amazing. Our waiter was funny, informative and just genuinely... enjoyed his job. The bartender in the ghost bar was the same way! So polite, quick with our orders and had so much to say aboutthe place. The aesthetic is elegant but welcoming. And the FOOD! Oh the food was excellent. The pecan crusted walleye was someof the best damn walleye I've ever had. The half chicken was flavorful, juicy and big enough to feed me for 2 days! The veggiesthat came with it were done perfectly. The carrots were naturally sweet and the asparagus had the perfect amount of crunch tothem. Truly cannot wait to go back! Read more
Definitely a spectacular place! This is a place for fine dining, so take your time, have a glass of wine, and enjoy the... atmosphere/scenery. A beautiful old mansion converted into a Detroit icon. Excellent restaurant for an evening of delectabledishes and some history. Valet parking and mansion tours available as well. Read more
The beautiful Whitney mansion makes for a amazing dining experience! The grandeur of it all, from the tapestry to the molding.... The staff are witty and accommodating. The portion size of every option is filling. Although I enjoyed the carrot cake, I wouldhave thought they would have come with something a little bit more imaginative. The atmosphere calls for a more tantalizingdessert. Read more
