Contemporary American
Chic yet approachable, historic while tastefully modern. The Apparatus Room bridges the old and the new, offering iconic New American cuisine by Chef Rece Hogerheide rooted in Midwestern ingredients, thoughtfully crafted cocktails, and esoteric wines. By blending a three-meal restaurant, elevated dinner service with signature touches, and a world class hotel bar, the Apparatus Room welcomes locals and travels alike to sip, stay, and enjoy one of Detroit’s signature restaurants. Our cocktail program is classically focused with inspiration drawn from the history of the building and the city itself. The ingredients may be familiar and the presentation simple and classic, though each cocktail has a deeper story to tell for those who have time to listen. Sommelier Liz Martinez showcases the diversity of both Old World & New World wines, and the regions are separated as such on the menu. Winemakers that take pride in sustainable, environmental practices are always on the top of our mind.

    It was a great dining experience! We will certainly return. I recommend the “at the table” 7 course menu experience!

    Lovely ambiance, interesting cocktails, food was delicious- the 14 year sourdough was amazing. Bucatini with crab was also very good. I’d recommend it- go with friends to share dishes and sample everything!

    Some items on the “bar menu” should be on the main menu! Specifically the burger it was delicious. It gives a nice variety.

Been many times for various reasons and have always found myself coming back over and over again. Bravo to the management and staff to keep this fine place in awesome running order. Also great social!

    We went for brunch and the food was great - some good healthier options. My dad says the waffle was the best he’s ever had, so some good yummy options too! Our server Desiree was wonderful and attentive!

    We enjoyed apparatus room. For picky eaters, the menu is a little limited. We thought the food quality was excellent. We were 2 adults and 3 children ages 10-17

    Great service… good drinks. Food was blah Ordered the trout, and got a quarter of a fish!! Where is the rest of the fish ! The sirloin steak was mushy. No flavor The oysters were the one thing we truly enjoyed! We highly recommend. Drinks were great. Service was amazing Did not have the dragon eggs, but would recommend them if they have them. Stick to appetizers, ignore the meals
