In a city that is developing a nationwide reputation for creative cuisine, Takoi remains a benchmark. We used this dinner to introduce four friends — all with significant “foodie” bona fides — to Takoi and they were all blown away. The theme is dominantly Thai. I am cautious about introducing the word, “fusion,” because it has been so bastardized. But Takoi revives the original meaning, staying true to its roots while adding distinctive new flavor tones and textures that can take you by surprise. From start to finish, each dish seemed to outdo the prior one, from the carrots to the noodles to the sea bream. Add wonderful service and Takoi remains a delight everyone needs to experience.

Our waiter, ALEX, was outstanding. So was our waitress who was working with Alex! 

Beautiful old building is worth the trip, particularly right next to Michigan Central which is lit up festively for the season, but the food was great too - we got fried cheese, pretzel and dip, and tri-dip apps and it was before 6 so we got happy hour prices. All of them were excellent. Entrees included fish n chips, salads, and pasta and we all joined the clean plate club with them. Would definitely recommend if visiting the train station or Senate Theater.

A Google search for an Italian restaurant in Detroit to celebrate our daughters birthday lead us to Giovanni’s. Everything was amazing! Service, food, ambiance, we couldn’t be happier with our choice. We will definitely be back!!

I had a great time! Patricia was an excellent chef! Food was great! I will be back!
