Sullivan's Steakhouse

The story

Crafted with passion, served with love

Prime Steaks and Fresh Seafood in the Heart of Detroit

Sullivan's Steakhouse on Washington Boulevard brings a classic American steakhouse experience to Detroit, built around hand-cut steaks, fresh seafood, and craft cocktails. The formula is straightforward and confident: quality ingredients, a room with character, and a wine program serious enough to earn Wine Spectator's Award of Excellence in 2024.

Classic Interiors, Lively Jazz

The atmosphere leans into tradition. Classic interiors and live jazz set the tone, giving the dining room a warmth that tends to turn first-timers into regulars. Whether the occasion is a quiet dinner for two or a larger celebration, the space is designed to feel familiar rather than formal — approachable fine dining rather than stiff ceremony.

The Wine Program

The Wine Spectator recognition speaks directly to the depth of Sullivan's wine list, and the restaurant takes that seriously beyond the accolade itself. The Wine Locker Membership program lets frequent guests store their own curated selection on-site, with a personalized nameplate and tasting journal, priority access to premier bottles, and the ability to gift from their collection to friends dining in. Members also receive discounts on bottles purchased for the locker and off the wine list during dinner — a genuinely useful perk for anyone who dines here regularly.

Private Dining and Catering

Sullivan's Detroit accommodates groups well beyond the main dining room. Private and semi-private rooms come with dedicated event coordinators who handle the planning, making the space a practical choice for corporate gatherings, milestone dinners, or rehearsal events. For occasions off-site, the catering program brings the Sullivan's steakhouse experience to an outside venue of your choosing.

A Steakhouse Built for Repeat Visits

The menu spans the full steakhouse range — prime cuts alongside fresh seafood — and the kitchen periodically offers chef-driven prix fixe menus that give regulars a reason to return on specific nights. It's a restaurant that rewards familiarity: the more often you visit, the more the experience tends to feel like it was made for you.
