The Whitney - Restaurant in Detroit - 4421 Woodward Ave, USA

Easily the best meal I have ever eaten! The entire experience was phenomenal. Our servers, both in the bar upstairs (a really cool experience in itself) and Regan in the restaurant, were both excellent! Even the manager made us feel welcome and made sure we had a great experience. The building itself is absolutely gorgeous.

Fantastic experience and gorgeous ambiance with unique architecture and history! We greatly enjoyed our elegant Sunday Tea 💕 Tony, the manager, along with the entire staff, was extremely hospitable and Tony entertained and enthused us with his stories of the ‘paranormal’ activity! The Grand Premiere Tea was a culinary experience of a lifetime. I couldn’t wait to come back for dinner, so I was back for dinner last night. Everything was phenomenal! I had the seafood sauté which was delicious and packed with scallops, lobster, shrimp! Be sure to check out their PPSC program, which includes a complimentary surf&turf birthday dinner (almost the value of the membership itself), $25 dollar gift card, and SO much more!!

I have been to The Whitney several times. My sister actually was married in one of the private rooms. This was the first time at The Whitney as a vegan. I have never been to a restaurant that was so willing to accommodate my food restrictions especially when it's a set menu. I planned a tea party for 30 people and only 3 of us were vegan and the substitutions they made were great. This was a great experience and I would recommend it to anyone. Atmosphere 10⭐ The service here is always amazing and so accommodating. They make each person feel special. This restaurant will always be one of the most coveted because they set a standard that many others can't compete with. If you visit Detroit, visit The Whitney and don't forget to have a drink upstairs at Ghost Bar.

Iconic Olde Detroit landmark, a beautiful and historic mansion. Very friendly and attentive service. World-class cocktails. Food a bit on the bland side, but so it goes...

The Whitney, takes top spot in the metro Detroit area from all the once that I have been so far. The perfect example of history, historical significance and also service and food are well put and maintained to the standards along with pricing. Highly recommended if you are in metro Detroit. This place brings the vibrancy of what Detroit was and is today.

The Whitney truly sells itself. If you enjoy a place with history and great stories then this is a place you’ll want to check out. It hides in plain sight along Woodward as you head downtown. We went for our anniversary dinner and were blown away by the level of service. We were seated immediately upon arrival. Throughout our night there were 3 different people who stopped by to converse with us and ask if we were doing okay. My personal favorite detail was the live pianist who played exceptionally well. Service is very important to us and I must say they topped the list of places in Detroit/Metro Detroit. They provided an experience not just a meal. We both selected a 4-course dinner menu. It included the beef wellington (I recommend medium well), the Chilean sea bass, lobster bisque, and appetizer trio. Of course we also received complimentary champagne for the occasion. The main entrees were prepared to perfection and were more filling than they appeared. If you’ve never had beef wellington this is a great first impression of it. The lobster bisque was also very rich in flavor. The appetizer trio is an acquired taste - I wasn’t in love but also didn’t hate it. In consists of a ratatouille, a shrimp cocktail and a seared piece of beef tenderloin on crostini. The best part of all is that it’s a great price point. I’ve spent twice the money for half the quality of service at places like the Highlands. I can’t recommend the Whitney enough.

I went on the ghost tour last night and it was amazing! The staff is always so friendly and our tour guide was awesome. Although we didn’t see any ghosts, getting a tour of the mansion itself was well worth it, especially with the history that goes along with it. The tour also came with their signature drink and a few delicious appetizers, which was a pleasant surprise. I highly recommend!! I will be back :)

The Whitney is the classiest place to dine in Detroit, perfect place for a romantic evening or a special occasion. I highly recommend doing the historic tour, so cool to learn the history. We also tried the paranormal tour and it was a blast, great host!
