Tom's Oyster Bar is on Northwestern just north of 12 Mile Rd in Southfield and if you are downtown go over on Gratiot to Joe Muer's. It's the resident seafood place in Detroit and he own's Tom's as well. Good portion sizes and quality seafood for the midwest. If you really want to go all out, money wise you might want to try Morton's Of Chicago. Very expensive, great meat and they encourage cigar smoking. Morton also owns the Hard Rock Cafe's. Marcie
