From the OpenTable editors: James Beard Award-nominated restaurateur Sandy Levine is behind this farm-to-table favorite next to the Detroit Institute of Arts. The simple, seasonal menu at this bright green spot changes often, but don’t miss the twice-cooked egg buried in a nest of greens and showered with salty cheese—and a Chartreuse-tinted cocktail, of course.

Executive chef: Doug Hewitt

    If you are looking for an unforgettable culinary experience in Detroit, Chartreuse Kitchen & Cocktails is an absolute must-visit. From the moment you walk in, the atmosphere strikes the perfect chord—it is an impeccably clean, beautifully designed restaurant that smells just as fresh and inviting as it looks.  The food was beyond amazing, striking that rare balance of being both visually stunning and packed with incredible flavor. Every single plate and craft cocktail served feels like an edible work of art—almost too gorgeous to eat, yet far too delicious not to! What truly sets Chartreuse apart, though, is their world-class hospitality. We had a last-minute change to our plans and party details, and the staff handled it with absolute grace, kindness, and professionalism, ensuring our night went off without a hitch. Whether you’re planning a special date night, a gathering with friends, or a memorable family celebration, Chartreuse provides a fantastic, vibrant setting for any occasion. We left with full hearts, incredible food memories, and can't wait to return. Highly recommended! 🌿🍸🍽️

    The service was great and we had an enjoyable time overall but the food was disappointing and over priced. We used to go to Chartreuse several times a year but found this to be a frequent experience for us so we hadn't been in a couple years and wanted to try it again. We ordered a round of last word drinks, 2 "starters" and 2 main dishes and the bread service. The Last Word drinks and Bread service were great, 2 veggie starters (Harvest Salad and Braised Cabbage) were different that expected/described and were okay, smoked beet tortellini was vastly different - there was no prosciutto, chevre or plum but instead the tortellini were covered in mushrooms and cream sauce. The last dish was the Pork Belly and it was great!. Another frustrating thing was I did get another Last Word drink and it was very tart and unbalanced like there was either no Luxardo or very little. Basically Service was Great, Food was Disappointing and my bill was $200, WAY too much IMO.

    5 if us had a delightful lunch on a Friday. Service was great and so was the food. We had 5 different items & 3 different deserts - all were unique and delicious. I especially liked the twice cooked egg salad and the pork belly. Definitely would recommend this restaurant.

    Food was delicious and staff were kind and on top of caring for the table and explaining the dishes. Only negative is the portion sizes are small given the cost of the meals.
