Helen Izbor: Regrettably, my visit to The Apparatus Room was characterized by a disappointing dining experience that left an indelible negative impression. The troubles began even before the food arrived, stemming from a rather poorly managed environment and less-than-adequate service.Upon being seated, we were immediately faced with a disheartening sight: neighboring tables in disarray, dirty, with cleaning supplies carelessly strewn about. An unsightly beginning that was far from the welcome one would expect from a reputable restaurant.Our server, an older woman, was far from accommodating. When we pointed out the messy surroundings and asked for tidying up, her response was one of visible annoyance. What should have been a basic service request was met with apparent indifference. More than ten minutes passed before our request was begrudgingly attended to, and only after a second reminder.Regrettably, the shortcomings of the evening were not confined to service and cleanliness. The food, a supposed redeeming factor, fell significantly short of expectations. Our dishes lacked flavor, with the taste profiles bordering on the side of bland. A particularly disappointing example was an avocado tart that was so poorly presented we felt compelled to return it. For a restaurant that is supposed to provide a high-quality dining experience, the food was a letdown.Overall, it was a waste of time and money. Until significant improvements are made, I find it hard to recommend this establishment.

Avneet Hall: I love how the restaurant has maintained the historic charm of the building and is modern at the same time. The food was delicious and the service impeccable. I only have good things to say about this place. Definitely a gem in downtown Detroit.

Adrien Hello: Overall, the food was solid if not a bit overpriced. I'm not sure if our waiter was the exception, but the waitstaff was fairly cold and not very polite.Food: 4/5|Service: 3/5|Atmosphere: 5/5 …More

HK S: I wanted to provide a feedback about my experience at Apparatus room on Feb 19th.We were seated at the long chairs in the back of the restaurant. When I enquired about table #44 with the waiter and then with the host she told me that it is reserved. I asked how is it so when I had made the reservation and I was explicitly told that table 44 is what would be reserved for me. She said she didn't see anything in the notes. I asked her "how would I even know about a table #44 if someone didn't tell me about it from the restaurant?" She didn't seem to have any cognizance of what is being told to her and was insinuating that I had not made a reservation because she said that people at table #44 had made the reservation. So then I enquired about another table which was empty and requested if we could be moved there. After initial refusal and me wanting to talk with the manager, we were moved to table #45.This seems very poor customer service skills by not acknowledging that the mistake was on the restaurant's side. I even showed the email interaction between the restaurant and myself to the waiter who was initially talking with us.For food, I got the celery dish. The dish was very salty. I told our waiter and all she said was she will let the chef know. There were limited vegetarian options on the menu and everything had pungent, vinegar like smell in it; the bread and crispy potatoes (which btw were not crispy at all). No way this dish should even be on the menu. It was one of the weirdest dishes I have ever tried.Ultimately our night didn't go as we had planned and food was definitely disappointing to say the least.After I emailed the restaurant about my experience, I was told that someone from management will reach out to me to discuss my experience which never happened. I'll not be going back to this restaurant or recommend anyone.

tammy wu: I paid $48 dollars for halibut, and I am still hungry. We spent $183 not including tip and my tummy is literally still growling. We ate bread with butter, beef carpaccio, flank steak, very soggy and wet cold fries, and halibut. We ordered the mains and sides as per the waitress’ recommendation. The portions are TINY. The halibut was littered with spring onions and regular onions which I did not eat. I still want to kiss my date after this meal. They garnished it with 6 peas. The “new potato” is VERY THINLY SLICED garnishing potato with zero seasoning. The only thing that was truly edible was the tiny portion of fish for $48 which was average at best. My dish was also the most expensive??? We are on our way to pick up something to fill me up on the way back to our hotel or else I’m having sleep for dinner. Tragic meal.

Amin Ghasemazar: Our server was having a bad day. Felt super unwelcome. Server got mad and had attitude just because we asked for more bread.Food was good.Food: 4/5|Service: 1/5|Atmosphere: 3/5 …More

Whitney Daly: Kate is the best waitress! I can’t say enough about the amazing service and ambience!

Scott Craig: Amazingly disappointing experience at the Apparatus Room. The price gauging for 3 cocktails is unbelievable. We were charged $30 for a drink that would typically cost $20 (high end). We were also told that in Detroit all drinks use 2oz of liquor- when in fact the drink is equal parts at 3/4-1oz each. Troubling and very disappointing. I expect more from Detroit.

James Randel Virgin hair & Beauty Collection: Beautiful restaurant and beautiful staff. Can’t wait to come back. First time visitor was very impressed

Chantel Jackson: I ordered the lamb chops only have them virtually raw when they were brought to the table. I sent them back for correction to have them take an additional 25 minutes to come back dried out and over cooked. They re-cooked the same lamb chops. The waiter was matter-of-fact-ish and virtually unresponsive. I will never return.Food: 1/5|Service: 2/5|Atmosphere: 4/5Recommended dishes Mac Cheese …More
