This section provides insights into our diverse culinary and social offerings.

Bangkok 96: Inspired by Chef Genevieve Vang's Hmong heritage, this sister restaurant to Bangkok 96 brings you food normally found during backpacking trips along the Mekong River and in the streets of Bangkok. This is not your typical Thai menu.

Momo Cha: Momo Cha serves homestyle Nepalese dumplings and snacks, turning a universally loved comfort food in an imaginative, locally conscious and accessible meal. Momos are dumplings made from a traditional South Asian spice blend of ginger garlic, cilantro, cumin, turmeric and masala blends. Made with love, just like if you were invited for a momo party in their home.

Halal Street: Born of gleaming silver carts on the corners of the Big Apple, Halal Street brings classic style New York Street food to Detroit. Rice and pita platters with "white sauce, hot sauce" are one of New York's signature foods - and soon to be one of Detroit's favorites. All made Halal.

-320 Coffee and Creamery: Who doesn't love coffee and ice cream? However, this isn't your standard scoop. The secret to -320’s rich and creamy ice cream is the instant freezing of the organic and all-natural ingredients with liquid nitrogen, which is -320°F.

Motor Burger: Burgers & Poutine from our neighbors to the North. Restauranteur Jay Soullierre brings his take on classics across the river from Windsor. From sliders and poutines to classic charcuterie boards, creative salads, pastas and braised meat and fish entrées, these dishes are sure to delight.

Beer Garden Bars: Hamms Bar and Sassy Cat Patio serving up tropical and classic drinks!

Main Bar: Get all of your favorites at our main bar while your food is being prepared with care.
