Crispelli's: Affordable Gourmet, Every Single Day

Back in 2012, Crispelli's opened their doors to bring affordable gourmet to Metro Detroit. This restaurant is nothing like you've ever experienced. From pizza to pasta, to panini to salad, to the most amazing desserts- they have it all. A friend recommended that I try this place out a few months ago, and I don't even want to admit how many times I've been back. The restaurant's centerpiece is a stone fired oven that can knock out the most amazing thin crust pizza in under five minutes. Everything they have is fresh, made with quality ingredients. Trust me, you'll be able to tell!

Crispelli's has not only mastered their gourmet dishes, but the experience as well. When you walk in the door you're greeted by an employee who will reserve a table for you (if you're dining in), while you order at your desired food station. At one station they have pizza made to order, at another you can order sandwiches, paninis and salads... and the list continues. But don't forget what could be the best part- the bakery section. I have quite the sweet tooth, so I may be a bit biased, but the desserts are a must try!

Oh! Did I mention they have a great selection of beer and wine as well?

Modern Mexican: MEX

Looking for a modern Mexican restaurant? MEX Mexican Bistro & Tequila Bar!

A friend suggested we try out this local gem this past weekend. The restaurant atmosphere was so unique and the food was outstanding. The wait for a table was a little long, but it was well worth it.

Shrimp Tacos with chipotle tomato sauce, toasted garlic, cilantro and pickled onion. Margaritas... Need I say more?  Highly recommend you give it a try!

Welcome!
