Antidote

Detroit, Michigan

Antidote calls itself a modern American wine and cocktail bar with Spanish influence, sitting on East Jefferson with free parking on site, minutes from Belle Isle and the Schaap Center for the Performing Arts. The kitchen sends modern American plates with Spanish influence. The list runs from Penedes cava and Getariako Txakolina to Priorat, Rioja and old-vine finds across two continents, built to move with the menu and evolve with the evening. Cocktails are made for evenings that linger, and the room is velvet teal and golden light. Happy hour runs Tuesday through Friday, brunch lands at weekends, a patio opens in season, and corkage is twenty five dollars.
