My husband and I went here for our anniversary for a "fancy" dinner on a Saturday evening. We made reservations, dressed up and got ready for the "experience of Iridescence". We're still waiting. I can't believe how many people were in jeans and t-shirts, this is a hotel/Casino they have other restaurants for those who chose not to dress up... More

We were treated with a delightful dining experience. Not just eating, but an experience. Had the Duo of Colorado Lamb. My wife had the Filet of Beef. Artfully done and every bite was savored. We look forward to going back. Our server was very helpful and explained everything in detail thatthe chef was presenting.

This restaurant was Amazing. The waitstaff was very attentive. We chose the 7 course tasting menu on our waiters advise. The chef had made a homemade bologna so we got 8 courses. The food was wonderful and the chef brought it over and explained every course. For a foodie that was wonderful. On top of it we had the Detroit... More

Went here for Detroit Restauarant which was the best value of any restaurant participating. The beef short ribs on savron rissotto was great. Our waitress, Chelsea , was extraordinary. Extremely attentive to our needs without being overbearing and this is the above the call of duty part, kept her composure as my wife knocked a glass of wine over which... More

We experienced Iridescence via a choice thru Detroit's Restaurant Week. This provided us an opportunity to enjoy a 4 diamond restaurant new to us. We were not disappointed! The hostess was pleasant and wait staff very knowledgeable of the food offerings and the way the food was prepared. She recommended a 2002 Penfold Bin 707 Cab Sav from Australia to... More

We visited this place in 2011 and were disappointed by the check in host, a gentleman who was just rude all around. The service it was friendly and food OK, but this past weekend April 12th 2013, we felt that Iridescence has done a 360. The hostess was very friendly and got us to our table right away. The food...

very lovely romantic restaurant on top of motor city hotel. Great service; food and service are excellent. Very pricey though; good to go with comps from casino. Meals are not large so dont come really hungry.

We were a bit disapointed. Great view and atmosphere, very informed staff. Cocktails great, nice wine menu. Calamari, tuna and oysters rockerfeller very good. Bone in rib eye steak was disapointing in both presentation and taste. Generally we agreed it was overpriced for the food quality.

This was our first visit to Iridescence but not our last. We went on Thanksgiving day. What a great place to celebrate a Holiday. From start to finish, everything was perfect. Pleasant and accommodating wait staff, wonderful flavors, excellent wine and great views. Really, how can you go wrong? When the wine I wanted was not listed as being available... More
