Ann Arbor
Downtown
The walkable core between Huron and William, Main and State. Most of the city's destination dining lives here.
Kerrytown
The farmers' market district north of downtown. Zingerman's Deli anchors a stretch of Detroit Street that still feels like a small town.
North Campus
Plymouth Road and the neighborhoods around the university's engineering and music schools. More strip-mall than sidewalk, but the food is real.
West Side
Jackson Avenue, Stadium Boulevard, and the neighborhoods west of Main. Where locals eat when they're not performing for visitors.
South State
The campus corridor running south from the Diag. Student-driven, fast-turning, and occasionally great.
Stadium Area
South Main below Stadium Boulevard. A quieter stretch with a few neighborhood gems and the old Biercamp outpost.
South Main
The restaurant row along South Main between Liberty and William. Echelon, Chop House, Jolly Pumpkin — the block keeps growing.
Ypsilanti
Depot Town
The historic stretch along the Huron River on East Cross Street. Sidetrack, 734 Brewing, and the weekend farmer's market.
Downtown Ypsilanti
Michigan Avenue and Washington Street. The old commercial heart — scrappier than Ann Arbor, and proud of it.
West Ypsilanti
Washtenaw Avenue heading toward Ann Arbor. Strip malls and hidden gems between the two cities.
Detroit
Corktown
Detroit's oldest neighborhood, west of downtown. The food scene here basically wrote the city's revival narrative.
Midtown
Between the DIA and Wayne State. Dense, walkable, and where Detroit's dining ambition shows up first.
Eastern Market
America's oldest open-air market district. Saturday mornings are the draw, but the restaurants keep it alive all week.
Southwest Detroit
Vernor Highway and the Mexicantown corridor. The most flavorful stretch of road in the metro area.
Greektown
Monroe Street between Beaubien and St. Antoine. Touristy now, but the history is real.
