This was our second time dining at Sexy Steak. Our waitress Gabby was very attentive to our party. The appetizer recommendations she made were great. Our dinner was prepped and tasted amazing. The vibe in the restaurant was absolutely beautiful and the entertainment in the evening is an added bonus.

This is a must try in downtown Detroit. The service from a welcoming hostess to the wait staff were great. Our waiter was very attentive and knowledgeable of the menu and offered great suggestions. My wife and I shared the smoked pastrami for a starter which is a hit. Then we shared a wagyu sirloin with cooked carrots and amazing mashed potatoes. Such a great and satisfying meal. The flavors were delightful. The atmosphere there is incredible. They nailed it with decor and use of space. Plenty of spots for fun pictures. Even the bathrooms are a must see here. This place has paid attention to detail and is a fun dining experience.

We had one of the best restaurant experiences in a long time! Celebrated our anniversary. Exceptional service as soon as we entered. Matthew, our server, was attentive, provided food and wine suggestions, ensured we were satisfied, didn’t over check on us either. It was perfect! Mahadi, cleared our dishes almost as soon as we were finished. Even snuck a piece of lost lettuce off the table without barely a notice. He was impressive! Management stopped by our table to ensure everything was perfect. And the food!!! Everything was fresh, prepared perfectly and served right on time. From cocktails, to meatballs and oysters, salad, rib cap, risotto, smoked pastrami, and potatoes, we devoured it all and were so satisfied. Haven’t had such good food and service in a long time! Costly, but worth every penny for this experience. Highly recommend.

Sexy Steak isn’t just a meal; it’s an experience. From the second I walked in, the atmosphere sets the tone - dim lighting, plush seating, and a touch of modern sophistication - it feels luxurious and grown. The vibes were absolutely immaculate. My girlfriends and I had a wonderful evening here, we ordered a ton of dishes, including my personal favorite, the crab cakes. All the drinks were great too. The presentation was super cool! The valet was great too, and there is free parking available on the street. I will definitely be back again!

Paige was great!! The steaks were cooking perfect and full of flavor. Mashed potatoes were okay but very smooth. The mac and cheese was AMAZING! I highly recommend you try this place out. :)

Service was impeccable!! Would give more than 5 stars if we could. Our server, Dina, was absolutely top notch and made our experience wonderful. As for the vibes - immaculate - from the soft lighting, comfy seating and great music! The table side Caesar salad, truffle mushroom risotto and tomahawk steak were standout dishes. Cannot wait to come back to try more!!

Sexy Steak is a great place for a 1st date. The food was very good but was slighrly overpriced. We asked for medium well with some pink and the steak came well done. We spent $700 for a party of 4. Waiting area was very small and all the cold air would hit us as soon as the door opened. Staff was amazing and the decor is very nice and unique. Customers were very loud and we felt like we were at a bar rather than a nice steak house. Overall I give this place an 8/10. The corn side was delicious.
