somica alexander This place is a must try ! The atmosphere is ideal for a date night or evening of fine dining. Such a beautiful experience. We reserved the private dining room and the customer service was excellent. Food was scrumptious,Must try’s are the lamb chops and and the black tie margarita. The mussels were delicious too!

Lauren Lindz This is a late review as I had visited during the summer but I wanted to leave a review since I said I would and had a good experience! The squid ink pasta was delicious. The house salad was also delicious and incredibly fresh. I also enjoyed the blondie dessert. Drinks were great. Hospitality from the owner was 5/5. Thank you, Don! Still dreaming about that pasta!!

Vivian Dbouk Took hubby here for his birthday and the food was way up there. The flavors... you wont get anywhere else. The chef(s) really pay attention to detail and make sure the food is perfect and to your liking. Great place and highly recommend. We had the scallops and asparagus with coconut risotto, rack of lamb, roasted Brussels, calamari, and dessert. Everything was perfect. Thankyou for the wonderful experience.

David Furstenberg I surprised my wife (well until we got about a mile and a half from the restaurant when she figured it out) for a birthday dinner for a special birthday. We had never been there together and neither of us had been here in more than 33 years. After our experience last night we realize what a mistake that has been! The restaurant is as charming as our memories recall it being. From the moment you enter, you are treated as valued guests. Everyone we came into contact with were both warm and professional. We started with two appetizers to share, the pera cotta and the fiora di carciofi fritta. Both were delicious. We particularly enjoyed the fiora. Prior to the appetizers arriving we were greeted by the sommelier to answer any questions we had about the wine as well as one of the most important people in the restaurant, the young man who kept bringing by very good warm rolls. We never had to request more. We knew Cafe Cortina was known for its lasagna so we decided to get one of each, the Emiliana and the Lasagna Vincigrassi. We did not know that these came with a house salad until the salads arrived which were very nice. The lasagna? Both were decadent in a good way, rich, flavorful and in generous portions. Its not often I cant finish a meal at a restaurant but we actually took quite a bit home. Multiple rolls (I wont admit how many I ate) probably contributed to my inability to finish the lasagna. Neither of us could decide which lasagna was better.....they are different but both outstanding. Dessert was just not going to happen though we saw something chocolate with many layers that looked fantastic. The overall experience at Cafe Cortina was worthy of a rare 5 star for me. We thoroughly enjoyed our evening and my personal thanks to the chef and all the employees we encountered for helping make my wifes birthday dinner special. We will definitely be back!

Ritika Jain Pleasantly surprised with my experience here. Our bartender/server Dallas made the experience awesome and gave us good recommendations for cocktails. We had the agnolotti and the pizza. For drinks we chose the two tequila drinks available. I would come here again just for the drinks and agnolotti they were phenomenal. We ended the night with a cinnamon flavor cannoli. One of my favorite cannolis I have had in Detroit. They rotate their cannoli flavors all the time so I am excited to go back to try another. Ambiance is 10/10
