I have heard a lot of good things about this place, and more so that it’s a great spot to come late night in the weekend but a reservation is needed. Decided to come check it out and grab some food and I would have to say I was a bit dissapointed in the place. They only serve salads and appetizers for food and they were mediocre at best. The truffle fries were really good, but everything else was nothing special. The calamari was not good at all and I would not recommend it, nor would I recommend the filet sliders. The service and atmosphere and drinks were good, but food was not worth the price. Note that they have 40% off apps every day from 5-7pm

Shift has great music and I love the cozy, retro vibe booths, or sitting at the bar watching them make their delicious craft cocktail. The service is great and the bartenders are amazing, especially Jonathan! It’s a great place to go with your friends or a date. Easy parking across the street, too.

My boyfriend Scott and I first met at Shift 2 years ago, and we never really left. John and Nathan are fantastic (and hilarious). They always make the perfect dirty martini for me, and I cant seem to get it that way anywhere else. The ambiance is FANTASTIC! Especially at Christmas time WOW. They even have live music many nights of the week. Drew Berries has one of the smoothest voices I’ve ever heard- no joke. He makes the place even more special. Food is great, AMAZING truffle fries. Have never been disappointed. We will definitely never leave!

Great Wednesday happy hour at Shift. The drinks tonight are both mock tails. Lobster tacos are always the best.

Tried this place for the first time and it was a very good experience. The staff was friendly and personable and the restaurant was clean. All the plates we ordered were a suggestion from our waiter and all of them were very tasty, our favorite was the ahi tuna that’s a must get. The price during happy hour was good, the drinks were nice, the only thing I wish they had were more options for entrees but other then that we loved everything about it, will be back for sure!

My husband and I were riding our bikes around when we stumbled across this restaurant. It was Happy hour so 40% off food! I had the seared tuna and my husband had the vegetarian board and we both absolutely loved our meals. I had the espresso martini and he had an old fashioned and are picky on our cocktails, and these were amazing! We will definitely be back!

We dined outside and enjoyed our drinks, services were great too! I enjoyed the nachos, the ambience was on point! It’s only Birmingham Michigan but I guess it still gave that feel of downtown Hollywood with drivers by showing of their latest machines outside, Bimas and AMG’s of this world. We actually enjoyed ourselves and so, definitely 5 star. My wife however didn’t like the traffic speeding by, but like I said, it gives that DOWNTOWN Hollywood or Copenhagen feel which you’d have to like to enjoy the outdoors!

The bartender was super attentive. The drinks are pricey, however, they use high quality products which makes the drink completely worth the price.
