Detroit Restaurant Week creates such strong, lusty, even insane feelings that we decided it needed its own little manifesto. Please read on...
We expect that the restaurants will be extremely busy. So, if a place runs out toward the end of a shift, handle it like an adult, go back the next day (earlier), order your meal special and thank them for working hard. Please be nice to our restaurants.
The excitement for Detroit Restaurant Week has been building! Don't be surprised if restaurants have waits. In fact, be surprised if they don't.
$36 brings out the cheap in all of us, but really, you're likely getting a $50 meal, so please tip at least 20%. The people who are serving you are working harder during Restaurant Week than an average week. A kind word will also be welcome – these people are our friends and neighbors.
Purchase of sides and extras is not a requirement, but we think it says a lot to those working hard to bring you an extraordinary experience. Grab some cocktails, wine, or enhancements and say thanks!
Restaurants will be encouraged to post their waits and remaining meals for the day on their social platforms. Also don't forget to share and tag your photos with #DetroitRestaurantWeek
Just a final note that many restaurants may require you dine-in for their meal specials. Take-out may be subjected to a surge charge depending on each restaurant's policy. Make sure to double-check the Official Restaurant Week App to confirm which locations offer carry-out and which locations are dine-in only.
