Editor’s Note: Sadly, Briggs Detroit is no longer open. However, there are plenty of other interesting places to dine near Detroit! Giovanni’s is a bit of a hike, but boy, is it worth it.
When it comes to skyline views, it’s nearly impossible to beat Iridescence. We’ve featured this delightful eatery before, but its beauty, dedication to service, and amazing atmosphere make it impossible to resist. Iridescence offers fine dining on the 16th floor of the Renaissance Center, a Detroit icon in itself. Marvel at sparkling city lights as you dine with loved ones high above the streets.
Situated within the Greektown Casino and Hotel, this modern yet elegant restaurant is a must-visit when you’re looking for delectable dishes and breathtaking views. Enjoy a specialty cocktail or glass of wine as you wait for your perfectly prepared seafood or steak meal to arrive. If you’re lucky, you’ll be seated near a window to take in all the beauty of Detroit’s skyline.
This Detroit classic never gets old, no matter how many times you visit. For over 25 years, this one-of-a-kind destination has served up freshly sourced fare in one of the most delightful atmosphere imaginable. Dine on Great Lakes perch, spiced spaghetti squash, or ahi tuna fillet as you enjoy views of both the Detroit River and the beautiful skyline itself.
No matter when you visit Red Dunn Kitchen, you’re sure to have a blast - but there’s something fantastic about visiting when the weather allows for outdoor dining. Enjoy a meal on the restaurant’s vast deck area, which gives way to marvelous skyline views. What’s more? The food and service here are second to none, whether you opt for crab artichoke hash or a slightly simpler burger.
This bar and eatery in the Motor City offers both indoor and outdoor dining options. No matter which you choose, you’ll appreciate the locale’s welcoming atmosphere and delicious menu, which comes complete with options like mac n' cheese and burrito bowls. As if that isn't enough, the bar’s central location makes it the perfect place to marvel at the city skyline.
This fascinating venue in the Motor City doesn’t quite fit the mold of a traditional restaurant, but it hosts plenty of special events during the year and can be rented out for private use. When you’re ready to see Detroit from an entirely new vantage point, make your way to the Sky Deck for an unforgettable experience. Tables, fire pits, couches, and more make for a truly magical atmosphere high above the city.
If you’re not a fan of heights and would prefer to marvel at the skyline from ground level, look no further than Parc. Situated within the beautiful Campus Martius Park, this restaurant allows for some of the most wonderful people-watching imaginable, and its menu is equally as fantastic. Dine on everything from baby back ribs to king crab pasta as you stare up at the surrounding cityscape.
