Central Kitchen + Bar - American restaurant in Detroit - 660 Woodward Ave #4A, USA

My husband and I ate here for the first time last night and it was one of the more enjoyable dining experiences we've had in a while. The server, Angie, who was also the bartender, was absolutely amazing. She recommended the wings as a starter while we were deciding. The wings were unreal- and you have to taste the fried olives that come on the plate! The wine pours were generous, and the beers on tap were great. We opted to try their burger and fried chicken sandwich as a starting point for the restaurant and they were awesome. We subbed the house chips with a massive tray of rosemary fries with aioli and it was delicious. We will definitely be back and likely work our way through the whole menu.

We made a reservation for 25 on the patio. We paid in advance during December (super busy). When we arrived they couldn't find our reservation but said "we will make it right." Patrons were on the patio at the time but they were able to get everything squared away in 30 minutes. While we waited they gave our party complimentary champagne. Once we made it to the patio, the views were great, as it's right across from Campus Martius. Before drinks could even be served, the restaurant had complimentary appetizers coming one by one. The service for 25 people was impeccable, the food was delicious, and the drinks were perfection, The view if the park in its Christmas glory was wonderful as well. The staff took a bad situation and made it completely right. We could not have asked for more, and we'll definitely be back.

Great service. The Fig Flatbread I ordered was super tasty! Outdoor seating with views of all the Christmas lights & directly of the tree! Tried the Honey & Smoke cocktail it was very good! Drinks are pricy but your paying for the ambiance & experience. Gratuity is automatically added to bill here.

The menu is really unique with specialty items. I enjoyed my drink. The plain wings are literally plain. The Mediterranean wings are flavored heavily. Those who had burgers enjoyed their burgers. The seasoned fries were excellent. The Bruceta was not what I was expecting. There's no kids menu but our kids were accommodated.

Came here for brunch with a large group of people. Our waiter was really nice and attentive, we all got our food super quickly and the mimosas were stronggg. I got the salmon flatbread and the peach crepes, which were pretty sweet. After we cleared we also got an extra mimosa refill on them! This is my third time at Central and I’m sure I’ll be back.

Loved the vibe and atmosphere. The bartenders were great and the food was decent. I do wish they had more food options on their menu. However, I had an overall good experience.

We had a very enjoyable meal at Central Kitchen + Bar. Norris was the server but others assisted along the way so plates were cleared quickly and water topped off frequently. We started with the Fig Flatbread which had fantastic flavors (fig jam, brussels sprouts, goat cheese, balsamic), everyone enjoyed it. Following the starter we had Prime Tenderloin Tips (very tasty), a Smash Burger and Central Bolognese. The Bolognese was excellent with a hint of heat. For dessert we had a carrot cake bread pudding and a lava cake with ice cream, both very good. Overall, an excellent dining experience, we will be back.

This visit was the best experience I've have at this restaurant. The server was amazing & the food & drinks were great! I'll be back!
