November 2024 - came here before going to the Fox Theater with my wife. It's a very nice restaurant. We sat at the bar but it took almost 35 minutes to get our last good order. The sliders are ok but the chips are really good. The drinks and the steak was really good. Worth heading here if you want a great drink. The bartender we had did an amazing job. Overall, we would come back again but with a small group.

Possibly the best cocktails I’ve ever had in Detroit. Could not get over The Phoquiri and Cilantro Volta.

Great food, first time in Detroit and I was impressed. Service was great, food wast tasty and well prepared, and the atmosphere (which was amazing) was probably the least impressive part. We tried half the menu and walked away bellies full with big smiles

Having visited Wright & Co. many times across various menus, I can confidently say it's always exceptional. The atmosphere is captivating, perfectly complemented by a thoughtfully curated music selection. Every dish I've tried has been a testament to their culinary excellence. The food is consistently outstanding, innovative, and memorable. Even our picky friends and vegetarian family members found dishes that called to them and absolutely loved their meals. The cocktails are also expertly crafted and delicious, adding another layer to the fantastic experience. What truly sets Wright & Co. apart is the impeccable service. The staff are attentive, knowledgeable, and genuinely enhance your dining experience, ensuring there's truly something for everyone. Wright & Co. consistently delivers an unforgettable experience, making it a place I eagerly return to.

This is one of our favorite spots to go to in Detroit. If you want a chic atmosphere and great menu, this is a must go to. We will come here just for the Pork sliders and Butterscotch pudding! You can’t go wrong with anything on the menu!

We were passing through Detroit after leaving a taproom and stumbled upon Wright & Company in my Google search… what an incredible find! The space is gorgeous, with that perfect mix of historic charm and modern elegance. Our server (I wish I remembered her name!) was amazing. I let her know my friend had a less common allergy but on the more serious side, and she came back with a fully chef-curated menu showing exactly which cocktails and dishes were safe. That level of care and attention was such a standout, truly some of the best service I’ve experienced. Every dish we ordered was delicious, but the housemade potato chips and the crab gnocchi were the stars of the night. I also ordered the Phoquiri cocktail, and it might be one of the best drinks I’ve ever had. Maybe I’m biased as a Vietnamese person who ate pho most of her life, but it was brilliantly crafted by their bartender (who is also Vietnamese). Served in a soup-like bowl, you literally sip it as if it were pho broth.. creative, fun, and absolutely delicious! What started as a quick, last minute dinner turned into one of the most memorable meals we’ve had with these friends. So glad we stumbled upon this place. I’d definitely come back to Detroit just for this experience.

We attended Wright & Co before the hockey game on a busy Saturday night. Service and atmosphere were top notch! We found the food arrived at the perfect pace and our server checked in several times during our meal. The food was top notch for the four items we chose (gnocchi, chips, lamb shoulder & scallops) and we especially loved the lamb shoulder it was some the best lamb we’ve ever had. To walk away satisfied you would need to order side dish & protein dish with beverage this will run roughly $75/person. Only knock on the meal was the lamb & scallop portions were a bit on the smaller side I wish they had even just included a larger portion of the vegetables that accompanied the meat. I would definitely return but would likely treat it as place to drop in for a drink & snack.

Hands down my favorite restaurant in Detroit. Every dish was so delicious down to the textures, flavors, and presentation. They wrote me a birthday card and gave us a birthday desert on the house!
