Now the challenge… where was the restaurant? The signage was slightly obscure but my internal food-GPS (aka hungry stomach) somehow led the way. We parked in the free Greektown structure conveniently off the freeway and made our way across the skywalk toward the Casino.
Ironically, as we drove into downtown Detroit, a “Brizola: Voted Best Casino Restaurant in Detroit” billboard boasted that we had clearly made a smart decision (although I’m wondering where this ‘vote’ happened – I couldn’t find anything online… and ya know… if it ain’t on the internet…). I knew I’d be getting a great value for the DRW prices as the least expensive entrée is just shy of the $30 DRW pricetag. I chose Brizola because it was the first time I’d seen this name on the DRW restaurant list. So don’t expect a technical French-accented, cultivated-palate description straight from culinary school.īrizola is located in the thriving Greektown Casino.
Now I’m no chef nor food critic, but I do have taste buds, a love for excellent food, and an over-exuberant excitement to share my dining experiences with anyone. Detroit Restaurant Week (DRW) brings the finest of Detroit dining to us who carry a budget-conscious wallet.
