Adrian Tonon, son of founders Rina and the late Adriano Tonon, took over this well-established family restaurant after the death of his father. It has carried on seamlessly with a menu of Veneto-inspired dishes that are served in a… Read Full Editorial
Cafe Cortina nice but expensive with a few caveats by crussjr via Menuism on 6/17/2013
Started out not perfect with the restaurant not having my favorite alcohol, Crown Royal. Oh well, let's...
My Absolute Favorite by enalaybab via Citysearch on 1/5/2010
For the past 33 years Cafe Cortina has been dedicated to what true Italian cooking and hospitality is all about. They seem to only get better with time. This once best kept secret is no longer. We LOVE this place!!!
Thank you Cafe Cortina!
new years by bbbbb2 via Citysearch on 1/4/2010
I had a similar experience to the reviewer who encountered a crowd at the door , even with reservations . The host never checked reservations , just took who he wanted . The food was off the menu , so there is no reason for poor food , but…
there's more than food here! by tiptopdiva via Citysearch on 9/28/2009
A mouse-like rodent ran across my foot while waiting for a table. The host was not concerned, he mentioned it was cold and that the doors had been open a lot. Makes me wonder exactly how many vermin occupy Cafe Cortina. The fact that…
Not what you expect by TATAR via Citysearch on 9/6/2009
I took nine of my friends to Cafe Cortina last night for our anniversary and frankly was quite disappointed. The attentiveness and ambiance was good. The service was quite poor, servers were confused who had what food hence wrong food was…
Mediocre food, poor service, pretentious by daveact via Citysearch on 2/16/2009
I don't usually write bad reviews on restaurants since it could've been an off night, but I felt compelled to review Cafe Cortina. My wife and I went there on Valentine's Day (Sat night)...maybe not the best night to go, but we had a…
great Italian food!! by Toby D via Insider Pages on 8/15/2008
Cafe Cortina is a great place for dinner! They actually grow many of their veggies they serve right there behind the place! They have a beautiful dining room and great food. Wonderful desserts too! Pricey but worth it!
The Best Experience by a2davidr via Citysearch on 6/25/2008
We have eaten at this restaraunt 3 times. It is always incredible! The food is the best anywhere.\r
The atmosphere is awsome and the service is always "a cut above the rest".\r
We just can't recommend Cafe Cortina enough.\r

Ristorante Cafe Cortina by 239421 via Citysearch on 4/21/2008
I was pleased with the compassionate service we received at Cafe Cortina. Not only is the food fabulous, but the staff is wonderful! Make reservations for "fireside seating." A++++++++
Fantastic!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! by JPNY via Citysearch on 3/5/2008
From the moment you pull up at the valet parking, the great service never stops. The food Veal Limon was the best veal dish I ever had, the appetizer's, salad, pasta,dessert, cognac . From beginning to end a memorable dining…
By far one of the best Italian restaurants in the country by marpop via Citysearch on 11/18/2007
I've eaten all across the country and I have to say that Cafe Cortina is without a doubt one of the best Italian restaurants around. From the impeccable Italian-accented service (I wonder if everyone is told to speak with an accent?!) to…
Avoid by troyster via Citysearch on 4/12/2007
This place is not good and expensive.\r
I dont normally comment on these kind of sites but felt I should as it was so poor.\r
The piped music was on CD which kept jumping and no one botherd to sort it out...Very annoying.\r
They then…
A love of traditional Italian cooking sets the scene for romance in this exquisite restaurant. by Contributor via Citysearch on 2/16/2007
In Short
Long considered one of the finest and most romantic restaurants in metropolitan Detroit, Ristorante Cafe Cortina is the place to go for special occasions. Its unlikely suburban location belies the elegant surroundings,…
Best food, best service, best ambiance by emceemk via Citysearch on 9/2/2006
IMHO, anyone who rates the Whitney's uneven service and overpriced food as superior to Cafe Cortina simply hasn't been there, or doesn't know great Italian food when they see it. This is a primo spot for birthdays, anniversaries, or any…
There is a reason this place is listed in DIRONA by rickge1 via Citysearch on 2/16/2006
Romantic to the max, try to get a table near the fireplace. Authentic Italian done with flair and class. The portions a a bit small, but the quality is there in spades. Excellent service what more could you ask for in a restaurant!
Prices not justified by food or service by smc213 via Citysearch on 1/15/2006
Prices are high. Appetizers run $6-12, pastas $25-30, entrees $35-50. For these prices I expect well-executed food. Pastas were not overcooked but they were not flavorful, relying on heavy cream sauces. Spent $48 for appetizer sampler…
Marangdav by antmimi via Citysearch on 1/17/2005
This place was great! The food, service and atmoshpere was perfect. From the parmesean cheese plate at the beginning to the Mango Sorbet for dessert everything was just right. Veal Chop is one of the best I have had.
2007 Update of Previous Review: Good Italian by mrneeze via Citysearch on 11/30/2004
Cafe Cortina continues to amaze my customers & I in their versatility and excellence in dining. I stand by the following remarks I made several years ago.....\r
This isn't the best Italian restaurant in North America, but it's in the top…
Had a great meal by mjmorgan via Citysearch on 8/11/2004
It was cold outside but the cozy atmosphere and gracious greeting warmed us up. The mushroom appetizer was excellent (and parts kept showing up all over the menu) as were the entrees (lamb and filet). The amount of waitstaff attention…
