   Ok so I took two of my friends to this club to celebrate their birthdays. We had reservations for the patio outside, but decided it was a little too cold and windy so ended up inside at a VERY small table for 3. (We didn't have enough room for our drinks, water glasses, the food we ordered and our small plates.) The drinks were good, but certainly not worth the price we paid for them. Apparently you order the drink you want from the menu for say, $18, then you get charged another amount for the booze they put in it and they don't tell you that until you get the bill. What? The food was pretty good and the price was fair for downtown Detroit. We ordered some whitefish dip which came with toasted baguette pieces. Clearly not enough to eat all the whitefish dip and so we had the waitress bring us some additional pieces. They charged us for the additional bread. So, my question is, why don't you just make sure there are enough up front so people don't have to order more? The waitress had NO personality and she did not smile once. Even when we tried to joke with her to make her relax a little bit. She is clearly in the wrong industry. The tip we gave her reflected that. Be a little more pleasant please or stop waitressing. Used to love this club, but probably not going back except for maybe happy hour.

   Always a great ambiance. Patios are cool and a great view of the city but windy and chilly in colder weather. Overall, a great atmosphere.

   I booked The Monarch Club for my birthday, leaving work early to catch happy hour, which was listed on OpenTable and confirmed by phone. When I arrived, I was told it didn’t exist after winter and no one came to take our order before 7 PM anyway. My friends were disappointed, I was embarrassed, and the slow service made it worse. No drinks were offered to my friends when the cake came, and no voucher or discount was made to make up with me. A really frustrating experience that ruined the evening.

   Terrible Experience with this restaurant. We had reservations for 8:30pm. They asked us to sit while our the guests before we’re finishing their dessert. So we sat down and expected to be called within 10 minutes or so. 30 minutes later we were still sitting there and we noticed a group of 2 people just walk in and were seated right away. We asked them if those people were mistakenly given our seat. The lady said “yes, we are working on your table” without even a hit of an apology. At that point we were upset and just left, so I couldn’t tell you how the food was. I suggest not attempting to book with this restaurant as this could happen to you as well.
