My Burger was overcooked and dry but all other entrees were received very well at our table of 4. Appetizers and cocktails were well done and th Pot De Creme was amazing. Great atmosphere and thoughtful menu. Will go back.","rating":{"food":4,"service":4,"ambience":4,"value":4,"noise":"MODERATE","overall":4,"__typename":"ReviewRating"},"user":{"numOfApprovedReviews":1,"nickname":"Drew","metro":{"metroId":38,"displayName":"Detroit","__typename":"Metro"},"initials":"D","isVip":null,"isLoggedInUser":false,"profileColor":"ICECREAM","profilePhoto":{"photoBySize":null,"__typename":"PublicDinerProfilePhoto"},"__typename":"ReviewUser"},"helpfulness":{"up":0,"down":0,"score":0,"__typename":"ReviewHelpfulness"},"publicRestaurantReply":null,"submittedDateTime":"2025-02-02T06:38:42Z","dinedDateTime":"2025-02-01T17:45:00-05:00","type":"OPENTABLEVERIFIED","fromPreviousConcept":false,"highlight":null,"photos":[],"__typename":"ReviewSearchResult"}],"totalPages":31,"page":1,"totalCount":304,"__typename":"ReviewSearchResults"},"reviewHelpfulnessVotes":[],"sortBy":"newestReview","isLoading":false,"prioritiseUserLanguage":false,"searchTerm":"","error":false},"availabilityToken":null,"noAvailabilityList":null,"multiDayAvailabilityModalOpen":false,"showDiningReward":false,"initialDTPDate":null,"initialDTPTime":null,"initialDTPPartySize":null,"fetchAvailabilityOnLoad":false,"findATableLoadingStateOverride":true,"pointRedemptionRewards":null,"privateDining":{},"activeTab":"overview","disableFPC":true,"restaurantHighlights":{"staff":null,"missionStatement":null},"pageAnchor":null},"wallet":{"isPaymentLoading":false,"singleUseCard":null,"savedCards":[],"selectedPaymentCardId":null,"showAddPaymentsMethodModal":false,"showConfirmDeleteModal":false,"cardIdForDeletion":null,"paymentCardTokenToSaveAfterLogin":null,"errorCode":null,"showPaymentMethodSavedToast":null,"showPaymentMethodRemovedToast":null,"networkError":null,"partialErrors":[]}},"__OT_NEW_SESSION_START__":true,"__EXCLUDE_ONETRUST__":false,"__EXCLUDE_GA__":false,"__INCLUDE_RECAPTCHA__":false,"__OT_RUM_CONTEXT__":{"deviceType":"desktop","primaryCountry":"ae"},"__OT_GA_DATA__":{"cd2":72,"cd12":"en","cd6":1084747,"cd28":1084747,"cd13":"Full Web","cd17":"Full Web","cd11":"restprofilepage","cd66":"restaurants","cd63":"restaurant-profile","cd67":"network","cd10":"anonymous","cd7":"Logged Out","cd4":1870,"cd76":1870,"cd3":370,"cd19":370,"cd78":8600,"cd5":8600,"cd31":"false","cd85":1,"cd84":"GuestCenter","cd15":"network","cd18":"network"}}}
