Restaurants near Sawyer Playground

You can't ask for a better Holiday Brunch. What a treat!!! Outside: the Detroit Christmas Tree, people ice skiing, and families gathered around Adirondack chairs with fire pits. Inside was some of the best service in the downtown area. Our waiter, Adam, knew what we needed before we did. He was attentive but not overbearing. My husband and I make it a point to request waiters who we deeply appreciated. Adam most certainly made the list. The food was lovely. I will say the plates were small for the portion. The pancakes were a hit with the little one. The oldest enjoy a burger. He wanted me to talk you: UPGRADE TO THE TUFFLE FRIES. Kevin enjoy the salmon bennies. I had the steak and eggs which was delicious and cooked to perfection. Both the restaurant and the waiter are going to be an annual tradition.

We tried 6 dishes plus dessert (pavlova) and everything tasted great. The service was also great, never had to ask for a water refill, very attentive. The music was a little loud, but not terrible. Will definitely go back!

First visit and the experience was wonderful. Great food! Great service! Great atmosphere. Highly recommend. Our server- Shelby was superb. TU Shelby for the great experience!

Went out for my boyfriend’s birthday. Overall an awesome experience. Our server was Paige* (not sure of the spelling).. she was so knowledgeable & friendly right off the bat. We actually ordered 2 of the specials based off her recommendations and they were perfect: Salmon Bites & Rasta Pasta. We had the Chicken Ravioli from their traditional menu & it was amazing. I tried one of the holiday cocktails as well, coconut mojito situation, it was great! I could’ve had 3 easily. 😂 Great place, great service, great food. Will definitely be back!

Lily’s and Elise is a beautiful, intimate spot. My friends and I made reservations for the Santa brunch. The brunch was pretty tasty but the rose matcha latte I had was amazing. I am looking forward to visiting again soon.
