Pick Your Favorite!
Whether your nomination is a cozy neighborhood spot you’ve been frequenting for years, or a trendy new restaurant that’s just opened – let us know and we’ll make sure to share it with our audience to give these establishments the love they deserve!
2025 Winter Nominations
You know how you have your favorite go-to bar? Your favorite on-the-go pick up spot for lunch? Or that place you love to go because you love the way you are treated there and the service is out of this world? Well, tell us who they are!
Best Service
Where do you go that you always know you will be warmly received, or the host or server behind the bar knows your name? Where are you the happiest from when you arrive to when you leave thanks to great service?
Best On-The-Go
Where do you love to go when you’re in a hurry to pick up something fresh, well priced, tasty, and well served? For those times you need a little pick me up but don’t have the time to sit and eat? Whether it’s for breakfast, a snack, lunch, or an carry-out dinner, what's your favorite spot?
Best Bar
Why do we love a great bar scene so much? It’s because it’s that one place that just makes you feel so great after a long day, or for the best date with friends. Your nomination could be the best bar design, the best drink selection, or the vibe you feel there!
SHOW THE DETROIT FOOD SCENE YOUR LOVE!
