• Steakhouse • Detroit
Booked 23 times today
Inspired by the parrillas of his native Argentina and the hip enclaves of contemporary Buenos Aires, Chef Javier Bardauil brings the art of live-fire cooking to Detroit at BARDA — a modern steakhouse where ancestral traditions meet out-of-this-world innovation. The BARDA kitchen relies solely on a wood-burning grill and oven, ensuring that every dish is either flame-cooked, fire-kissed, or served raw, showcasing premium cuts of meat and high-quality seafood and vegetables prepared to highlight their natural flavors. The thoughtfully curated South American wine list and playful cocktail menu provide artful balance to the fire-infused cuisine. Recognized as a James Beard Award finalist for Best New Restaurant in 2022, Barda invites you to experience the depth and warmth that only live-fire cooking can offer, in a futuristic space unlike any other restaurant in America.

• Thai • Detroit
Booked 25 times today
Located in the Corktown neighborhood of Detroit, TAKOI is known for modern Thai cooking accented with Michigan seasonality, a DIY mentality, and a penchant for local food production. As a core pillar of our mission, TAKOI operates HiO Farm which is located just a mile north of the restaurant. During the height of farm season, the restaurant highlights dishes prepared with HiO produce utilizing the techniques and flavors inspired by Thailand and beyond. TAKOI, originally KATOI, began as a food truck in 2014, evolved into an Ann Arbor pop-up, and landed as a proper restaurant at 2520 Michigan Avenue in March of 2016. After being open for 11 months, having a slew of fun, and garnering a handful of awards — including a James Beard 'Best New Restaurant' nomination— KATOI was brought back down to earth when it was subjected to arson in February 2017. The day after the fire, the rebuild began, and we opened as TAKOI exactly six months later in August 2017.

    Some of the best sourdough bread you’ll ever eat. The salad Lyonnaise is spectacular. The duck served with sauerkraut and apples was excellent. As always excellent wine selections. A clear neighborhood gem.
