Let’s express our passion through exquisitely prepared cuisine, exceptional wine, and gracious service—all within a cozy, minimalist atmosphere designed to delight.

Why they're an Icon

Executive chef: Jordan Smith

From the OpenTable editors: Fine-dining vet Jordan Smith has plenty of fun with the menu at his French-ish Ferndale spot that the Detroit Free Press named 2024's best new restaurant. The sleek wooden interiors make it feel very upscale, but Coeur is totally unpretentious and laidback. Expect a seasonal menu of dishes like a branzino curry with trumpet mushroom and next-level desserts from pastry chef Carla Spicuzzi like a swanky take on a Choco Taco. Make the most of your visit by choosing the five-course chef's tasting.

    A wonderful team providing a great experience as we experienced the tasting menu with wine pairings. The food I’ve had off the regular menu before were better than the tasting menu, but by no means does that mean the tasting menu wasn’t worth a try! The staff and service here is award worthy, however I would recommend the same runners presenting the tasting menu each course.

    Our server was fantastic and the food was creative and delicious. The chicken dish was not something I would have normally ordered but did upon recommendation from the server and I was so glad I did. Enjoyed the octopus appetizer. Their staff has great wine recommendations as well. Can’t wait to go back.

    Enjoyed the tasting menu. We were celebrating a birthday and were presented with a card signed by the staff. It's next level service that makes this place extra special.

    It was our first time dining at Coeur and we couldn't have enjoyed a better experience. The food was excellent, but the service equally matched. Can't wait to return and enjoy more dishes.

    I love that there was a coat check. Restaurant is cramped like they added a bunch of tables because they weren’t getting enough turns. Bathrooms were nice. Food was fine but not worth the price. Service was good. Everyone really worked together.

    The food and service were outstanding. The ambiance is ok, seems like it doesn’t quite fit the the style of food. It’s seems a little cold. We had the tasting menu, with the wine pairing and it was really fantastic.
