MANI OSTERIA AND BAR REVIEWS
Great food and service. The restaurant staff is very friendly and professional manner. Good knowledge and describe foods and drinks. Each dish was good size portion. We ordered several foods and shared. Love the restaurant atmosphere and great place with your friends, family, coworkers, and someone special. They don't take a reservation, so it better to be there with extra time.
A fancy pizza spot enjoyed by the college crowd. Came on a Friday evening for dinner. Place was loud & packed. Had the infamous bruschetta, which is popular for a reason. Also had a sausage pizza that was spicier than anticipated. Food was delicious & my waitress was an absolute gem. This place is popular for a reason! Parking: No parking lot, street parking only.

THE EARLE RESTAURANT REVIEWS
Always enjoy The Earl. Service has always been excellent. I would describe the decor and unique downtown basement space as very vintage. They usually have great dinner music, Tonight was guitar but have also listened to jazz there. Food is delicious. Really rich, no skimping on cream or butter! also Great variety in the seasoning. Went for a special wine tasting this past visit, was a treat.
Always enjoy stopping in here when I'm in town. Through the years, it's always been great. The duck is delicious. I tried the mushroom scallops recently, and it was excellent (just make sure you like rich creamy mushroom flavor). Great service every time as well, and a nice atmosphere.
Great birthday dinner. The drinks were awesome and the lemon sorbet was great for dessert. The mussels and duck breast were cooked perfectly.

PAESANO RESTAURANT & WINE BAR REVIEWS
This is a very good Italian restaurant that I never knew existed. Recommend the Pork Chops as well as Short Ribs were phenominal.as well as large, You will bring some leftovers home. The Mushroom Ravioli will depend heavily on you like of mushrooms. Expensive but great food and solid service. Definitely get a reservation.
I regret living in the area for 7 years, and never dining at this restaurant! We gave it try on Friday night (definitely make a reservation), and from appetizer, to salad, to main course, and finally desert - LOVED IT! Everything was savory! This establishment is priced much better than downtown Ann Arbor restaurants, and had higher quality Italian food. We are returning on Tuesday.
Will definitely return! Amazing food, friendly staff, good wine, and a great time. My vegetarian/gluten-free date was so excited by all the quality meal options. We shared gluten-free apps, and I tried her gluten-free meal, and they were fantastic. We were so full we almost skipped dessert, but I'm glad we didn't.. their gluten-free tiramisu was genuinely one of the best desserts I've ever eaten. I'll be excited to go back to try some more of their unique menu.
