Best Cozy Restaurants in Farmington Hills

We came with my family and I was pleased at the menu choices. Everyone found something they liked which is not an easy task. The food was delicious. The wait staff was very helpful. We will definitely come back.

Waiter was fantastic. The food was fantastic, the environment was very welcoming and warm and cozy.

The food was good and our server, Lauren was top tier. Thx.

My college roommate form early 80's and I started reviewing restaurants in the Metro Detroit Area 4 years ago. We have hit 80% of all the top restaurants (over 120) and we both consider Café' Cortina in our top 2-3 restaurants. I am not sure that I would take children under 14 there, only because of the complexity of the menu/food, and it seems like most of the servers have strong accents that are not always easy to understand. With that said I love going there about every 4-5 weeks and trying something different each time. Last night I had lamb chops. They may have been the best I have ever had. I savored every bite. I have had lamb chops at many nice restaurants. There pasta's are all made in house and are always exciting to try a different one. Make sure you save room for desert, as their pastry chef makes some very unique and tasty treats. This is probably one of the least known restaurants in Metro Detroit, a hidden gem for sure.

What a great dinning experience! Highly recommended if you want to have a nice intimate date night. Service was great as there is complimentary valet service (tip optional) and the staff were so friendly upon entering the restaurant. The decor and ambiance are stunning and has a nice modern art touch. Our waiter was amazing and so friendly. The drinks there were delicious and the food was authentic. After eating the food, we did not feel a “food hangover” and felt amazing after suggesting that the food is cooked with the best and freshest ingredients. The pastas noodles are made fresh as well so that is a huge bonus!
