Truly one of the best dining experience I’ve had! Mark and his employees went out of their way to serve us. While calamari wasn’t on their menu, Mark made it possible to make it happen. We can’t thank Steven Lellis enough for making our Valentine’s Day weekend so special. We are so excited to be back!

Took out a equity line of credit to have Easter dinner here. Great tasting food and average service. I can’t say the staff made me feel special or unique however. Dim lighting, almost dark which is kinda nice and captures the Scarface movie vibes. No particular need to return.

I hosted a beautiful Bridal Shower here for my daughter and everything was just AMAZING!! Thank you to Ari and Mark Zarkin and their team for making our event and our day extra special! The food was delicious and the service excellent. 50 ladies gathered to gab, sip mimosas, nosh on their fabulous food and we all enjoyed a gorgeous event in such a beautiful and lovely ambience. THANK YOU for everything! 5 stars! HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

This place was on point when it comes to ambience!! Everything was fresh & but felt like the food could have gone a level up. All staff wore masks and there was no wait time. Our waiter was very polite, helpful & attentive.

Italian is my favorite, love the fresh mozzarella with basil and tomatoes. I always get a table and the staff is always attentive, definitely one of my favourite spots.

Brought a guest here with me for a first date. The food was incredible. We got the pesto bruschetta, filet and salmon. All of which were beautifully presented, tastefully prepared and delicious. The service was not good. I don’t think our server told us his name, he barely checked in at all. He told us this kitchen was closing soon but we didn’t put our orders in earlier because he took 25 minutes to come to our table after dropping our appetizer. When he did check in, he hopped his head over our table and said, “You good?” Truthfully, not the service I was expecting. The atmosphere is absolutely stunning, very traditional steakhouse vibes that’s modern at the same time! Definitely intend to return, but with a different waiter hopefully.

Shared an evening with my 85 year old father and it could not have been better! We both enjoy a good steak and Lelli’s did not disappoint! Staff were charming and engaging with my dad which made his night ! Will definitely come back for another special night .

This is an experience you want to plan for. First, save up, the prices are not outrageous but they are higher than average. Second, show up hungry, they do not skimp on portions. Everything I sampled was well above par. The recipes were unnique, in my experience, and very pleasing to the palate. The decor and service complimented the exceptional fare. Do check this place out and do not be afraid to bring your most discriminating friends.

Really enjoyed this place. Had my reservation at 8 originally and had to push to 8:30. Ended up coming at 9:30 and Ari gave me no trouble. Good atmosphere for special events and the staff was incredible. Wait staff was all professional and older (everyone in their 40s and up). Our server Pattie was incredible with good recommendations and had a way of carrying conversation between visits. Food was spot on. This place did a really good job of nailing the fine dining experience while maintaining a cozy warmth that you sometimes lose in fine dining. Thank you Ari and the great staff, I'll be back.

This is a very romantic place. I love the crystal chandeliers, red velvet and leather upholstered furniture and the dim light setting. The bathrooms were so beautifully appointed as well. The service is excellent and the food is good.

This restaurant is simple the best you can find. Their stake is always perfect, it doesn't matter if you order it raw or done, it always taste perfect. The service is always amazing. The mussels are not from this world, the palomino sauce is like my son says "A party in my mouth", try the creme brulee if you have a chance. Amazing place and amazing people.

Holy F... Did I enjoy the atmosphere and excellent food. The service was top notch. The chef personally came to the table to enquire on the food. The Palomino sauce was so flavorful. The renovation is very classy.

It's really good to know some people out here taking responsibility during this difficult time of the year, helping health care professionals, law enforcement, and homeless people... A lot of business during this time try to do their own, but obviously Lelli's Inn is taking responsibility,and feeding people to contribute society.so as a neighbor we need to actually buy food, and gift card to support them...thank you guys for your all good effort.

Wow! What an exceptional dining experience. With a memorial service dinner for my Aunt’s mother a group of over 50 of us were treated with an amazing waitstaff being attentive to each and everyone of our individual needs. The food was fantastic from start to finish and the ambiance of the restaurant was wonderful. I would highly recommend this restaurant for a personal/ group or semi-private dining experience. 😊💜🍽

My buddy took me here bragging about how amazing it was. He was definitely right, had a great Filet for a amazing price of $20!!! Couldn’t believe it. Zip sauce can be a little thicker but was also very good!! Thanks A lot Mark for the great experience, this place is a must try!!

Had a great filet mignon with superb zip sauce. Elegant setting in which we were made to feel welcomed.

Such a beautiful establishment! Food was impeccable!!! Service the same!!! From valet to the owner.

Amazing food, top notch staff. We were able to get a reservation last minute for 4 on a busy night before the holidays. They treat you like family.

The best Bolognese ever! Everything is yummy! Never been disappointed.

The surf an turf was fantastic. The Lobster is from South Africa. Super fresh Lobster an large for this time of year. Service was outstanding.

This place is absolutely beautiful I highly recommend the service food staff manager I love everything about the restaurant had the pleasure of coming here twice in a couple of months when I tell you everything is amazing you can take it to the bank my friend is very critical of restaurants but the Manager Ari and my server brooke showed her she was wrong I was surprised when she cleaned her plate and couldn't stop talking about the service and staff the chef even took time as busy as they were to come over to our table on Easter Sunday and say hello she had prime rib I had lamb chops cauliflower appetizer and ribs I just can't say enough good this as I read some of the reviews people write its sad they can't extend some grace to the restaurants if things aren't perfect we all have off days but grace and mercy to others is so important I personally want to thank the entire staff at Lelli's for all they do I appreciate each and everyone of you that Ari is one top notch young man hat's off to you keep up the amazing job 😀 blessings

This place is a joke and the joke is on you. If you want the real reviews for this place checkout Open Table and Yelp. Never again! Update: Based on his response, this owner has no intention of making any changes. The Chicken Marsala was gross. The cook never reduced the Marsala wine until it becomes sweet. The taste was bitter. You should be ashamed to charge this much money for this sham food. You might try adding some spices for flavor. Obviously your cook does not know what their doing. There was a time when the chef had a heart and enjoyed cooking and cared how their food tasted. Save your money and go to Olive Garden where the even the atmosphere is better.

All I can say is wow! I came from Shelby Township and was running few minutes late. Came at 9:40 while the kitchen closed at 10. Called in advance and told them I was coming. But when the food came, me and my buddy LOVED IT!! The owner was running the $20 6oz filet special and decided to order two of them for $40, while a regular 12oz would cost $60. The chef cooked it to perfection and the staff made sure I was treated great. Talk about those meatballs...yumm!! Walking into Steven Lelli's reminds you of The Godfather movies with the eloquent classic design and the staff wearing tux. Will never feel disappointed and will always come back..well worth the 45 minute drive for me.

This place is a hidden gem! The service was impeccable and the food was some of the best Italian we have had. Well managed clean place will definitely be back.

Service and atmosphere was great, food was mediocre at this price point. We tried 5 items on the menu. We felt that the best parts were the appetizers and the dessert. The pastas were unremarkable. The taste of the food, not bad but it doesn't beat out the chains in my opinion. We don't do fine dining that often. When we do, we hope to be blown away by the flavors of the dishes. I Didn't leave wowed by the food, the flavors of the pasta and steak didn't stand out for me. 4 stars instead of 3, because the host did in earnest try to do everything he could to ensure that the food was cooked to the liking of all of the customers. He was very polite, they really do care about customer satisfaction.

Steven Lelli's Inn is an old-fashioned, classic Italian Restaurant Steak House. Dark walls and dramatic red velvet curtains, a bit dark, despite chandeliers. Attended a birthday party dinner there, although the food was good, service was rather slow(for such a large party, more than 1 server would have been more appropriate) and we were the only guests in the restaurant for the first hour or so.

Been here several times and this last time we were very disappointed. The meat on the antipasto tray wasn't fresh (looked gray). The spaghetti (meat sauce) was extremely slimmy. We ordered surf and turf (lobster tails) that were mushy. For s $300.00 bill, very disappointed ☹️

Hands down my favorite place to eat a steak other than my backyard. I usually lean towards a dry aged ribeye.. BUT this place has a “Famous Broiled Filet Mignon” that just hits differently.. So good!

Very delicious food, great service. Indoor or outdoor dining available. Make reservations or play a short course then dine in.

The best Italian period

Best italian restaurant I've been to since Florence. Absolutely wonderful food and customer service!

First time here. I wanted to try it because it had really good reviews. Food looked good and had heard good things about it. They have valet parking. The atmosphere inside is trying to be fancy with crystal chandeliers and marble but it's really old and outdated. So it's old type of fancy not new or modern type of fancy. The place didn't smell clean, look clean, and bathroom was a hot mess. Toilet paper on floor, dust balls everywhere. Not sure when they swept vacuumed or mopped last. Toilet has an upspray when flushing....gross 😳 😖 Service was slow. It was not busy when we arrived. Drinks took 10 mins. Second drinks took 10 more minutes. Appetizers took 30 minutes. Dinner took an hour. The same drinks tasted different so different bartender one knowing what they were doing and the other not so much ☹️ The calamari was really good. Meaty and good crust and flavor. Buttery garlic sauce with was decent too. The bread is not served with butter so not sure that's about but im a butter person and pretty much every restaurant that serves bread does so with butter. Meatballs. I've had alot better. Tasted more like filler than meat. Ordered the Mahi Mahi special. Came with mashed potatoes which were decent. Fish was topped with asparagus and sauce. MY FOOD CAME OUT COLD! You had one job! Fish was bland. Asparagus was soggy. I also had green beans which were quite good and flavorful. I suggest making the asparagus the same way and slightly browning it more. I didn't come here for boiled vegetables served cold with no flavor. Dessert. My husband said key lime pie was great. My tiramisu was the farthest thing from tiramisu that I've eaten. No flavor no layers was more like cheese cake. Our bill was $250 for my husband and I. I have been to chain restaurants that are so much better. So to sum it up it was disappointing underwhelming and expensive. I will not be returning and would not recommend to anyone else.

so happy they have reopened up! The remodel is absolutely beautiful, the food is still the same and amazing! The staff is just as amazing! This will once again be a weekly place we will be going to for dinner!

If you’re looking for great service amazing food and a beautiful romantic ambience. You found it! Love the new look! So clean and so elegant! We hosted our work Christmas dinner here tonight. (About 12 of us) What an amazing evening we had. From the service, appetizers to the main course everything was prompt on point and everyone was so happy! Not one complaint about anything from any of us! And we all are pretty picky! So delicious and perfectly prepared! Thank you Mark, Ari and the team for making our night perfect!!! We can’t wait for our next visit! Merry Christmas!!

My husband and I eat here every single weekend and would never go anywhere else. The vibe is unmatched and the food never fails to be anything less than amazing. Staff has become family and is so respectful. They will accommodate to your needs. We absolutely love it here!

Food was one of the better things about this place! The remodel has a somewhat modern feel but held on to the old school vibes a little too much. Server came to the table all of 2 times to check on us and take our order. Portions were good sized but the prices are still on the higher end for good food

The food, hospitality, service and friendships that were made here tonight if I could give 10 stars I would. Brooke (aka Vanya) was our server who was just a delight and wonderful, we met the cook who took pride in his food and the manager who shared stories of the history of Lelli's, and his family. Absolutely the best first time. We will be back! Thank you.

Even though the prices are high lol, it was very good service. Every time a waiter walked passed, they filled our glasses up. The food was great and tender. The drink we ordered was different, but good. Overall, very good place to attend. Thank you!

Anyone who says this place is not 5 star is used to eating at a 3 star restaurants. Dining here is an experience, its about enjoying each course in a wonderful ambiance. They give you your moneys-worth, not bring out all your food and usher you out the door. Its a fine dining experience comparable to eating abroad in Italy. The servers are wonderful, and cater to every need. The food, where do I even start. The flavors and the options are phenomenal.

Had a great time as usual food is phenomenal and service is beyond, been going to lellis since a child and it only gets better.

The food was great

Food is delicious, atmosphere is wonderful, service is great! Another great meal at Lellis!

My husband's boss took all of his employees and their spouses out for a wonderful 6 course dinner here. Words fail me with how delicious the food was and how potent the drinks were 😍

I love doing events here! Top notch service, exquisite food with a beautiful atmosphere and view! Mazel tov, to this lovely couple!

Fantastic atmosphere, food & staff. A must for any special occasion.

Excellent good and service. Deck dining has great view of golf course.

It was the best food I've ever eaten in my life the staff was so polite and caring I'll be back as soon as The Cove Atlantis and bring a whole group of people

Copper Creek is a very hilly, brown, and the greens are small but Steve's Inn is very danty for certain people to go frequent. Take your woman, or maybe blind date golfing to build an appetite and eat at clubhouse without actually going out to another establishment. Prices are reasonable and the dining area is somewhat quaint, if ya ask me.

Outstanding

Great place for romantic date night inside or out.

Please place, delicious food.

Excellent meal and service.

Haven't been here in sometime, but it was absolutely wonderful! Shoutout to Mr. Sandford who made our dining experience even better!

Soup was bland

Best Italian I've ever had! A must have if ever in Detroit area.

This place is truly awesome. Great place for romantic date night inside or out. Food is outstanding, as it should be, if your going to go Italian. Carrot cake and coffee is perfect finish to all the culinary delights. Calamari appetizer is heavenly. Just make a reservation and go!!!

Great atmosphere

Great course.

Came here for our anniversary and decided to sit on the patio on a beautiful night. Felt as if the waiter had the whole restaurant since it took 15 minutes to get initial water and 30 minutes on a refill as well. Other than that, food is excellent and hearty portions. Had the spaghetti with meatballs while my wife had the mushroom pasta which she loved. Will be back.

Amazing spot with amazing food

There are only 2 restaurants in Michigan that can cook a steak to the exact temperature you ordered. Every time. Lelli's is one. Never miss the chance to have a steak here. You will NEVER regret it! Oh, and don't forget the Zip Sauce!

Celebrated a birthday here, good service!

Lelli's is a classic! It's an old school Italian place with velvet upholstery, and I love it. The staff is always warm, welcoming and helpful, and the food is delicious. The filet and zip sauce is out of this world! The bolognese is delish, too!

Food was good, server slow

Always a fantastic experience with upscale and comfortable decor. The food is outstanding, and the service excellent. We have tried several entrees, but keep coming back to the filet with zip sauce or filet & lobster tail. Although very pricey, we have never found a better lobster anywhere in the country.

BEST steak in town. Great special going on right now

Great zip sauce

One of my favorite steaks in town.
