Best Restaurants with a Happy Hour in MGM Grand Detroit

Javier’s was an absolute treat, Anticipating traffic we arrived early to find nearby parking to accommodate dinner as well as the rest of our nightly plans and make our way towards the restaurant although it seemed as if they had valet parking street side in front of the restaurant. Although we were 15 mins early we were seated immediately for our 5:30 reservation. The environment was very classy while not making it feel uninviting. I would say semi causal is plenty acceptable although there were parties very well dressed. The seating was very comfortable, the unique shaped table left plenty of room to eat while being close enough to talk amongst ourselves. The music felt somewhat loud at times but not to a point it was overwhelming, and it was more of an acoustic type of environment I don’t recall any lyrics. To start we ordered the bread with garlic herb butter, it came out very quickly and was absolutely phenomenal. Can never go wrong with a good bread for an appetizer We all ordered the filet and potatoes which were absolutely to die for, the filet melts in your mouth with a nice seared crust to give it some texture. The seasoning was a perfect blend of taste while being light enough to still enjoy the meat. The potatoes were a perfect addition to the steak being seasoned with some type of parsley or similar and a few other things to give it a very enjoyable flavor. My friend accompanied his filet with the lobster tail for a very standard price, yet it came out I believe to be the biggest lobster tail I’ve seen to date. Very well worth the money if you’d like a surf and turf meal Me and my friend enjoyed the Coke which was to be expected while the lady’s enjoyed a mixed drink that was flawless as well. We finished off with carrot cake and the chocolate cake and both of which were absolutely phenomenal. I don’t believe there’s anything on the menu that could be unimpressive. I will DEFINITELY return to Javier’s!
