Restaurants in Taylor

According to the Windsor Ontario News, owner Milan Miokovic opened Crave Grill to correct the faults he found in other restaurants: crowded seating and inferior ingredients. The eatery's menu marries traditional cuisine—strip steaks and 8-ounce burgers—with exploratory international fare, such as creamy Italian pastas and tender wiener schnitzel. An extensive wine list brimming with sundry varietals from Canada and the world over complements entrees or serves as a reminder of grapes' mortality.

For almost 30 years, the Costanza family has chaperoned a troop of juicy steaks and steaming pasta dishes through Station 885's warren of dining rooms, fireplaces, and the long, burnished-wood bar. Thick, broiled filet mignon and jambalayas enriched with andouille sausage and shrimp represent the menu's hearty steak-house-style fare, which is offset by stone-fired pizzas, and gluten-free and wheat pastas. Diners can cozy up in the fireplace dining room or twirl up a spiral staircase to a dining area above the bar. Throughout the restaurant, bowl-shaped art-deco lamps cast pools of light over white-linen tablecloths, recalling the site's origins as the Chesapeake freight house with its utilitarian elegance and penchant for trains.

At Cafe Aroma, steaming mugs of espresso drinks pair with hearty soups, salads, and sandwiches. As baristas pour out frothy cappuccinos and lattes, cooks heap chicken parmigiana, italian sausage, or prosciutto ricotta on fresh bread. The restaurant's soups and specials change daily, much like the tires of the world's most immaculate cars.

At Secret Recipes Family Dining, Jim Woolford helms an affable staff who slings breakfast, lunch, and dinner in a sunny, relaxed dining room that caters to families, offering coloring books and toys for the kids. Omelets, breakfast burritos, and pancakes greet the dawn alongside coffee, cappuccinos, and tea. By suppertime, the kitchen's signature baked meatloaf—slathered in gravy and flanked by mashed potatoes—crowns tables as slices of pie vie for space amid entrees and each table's caddy of sugar, ketchup, and nine-irons. Secret Recipes also caters special events with chafing dishes and place settings that serve up buffet-style entrees and a myriad of sides.

After serving as head chef of Tawaa Restaurant, Chef Sardar took up the reins of ZamZam Cafe & Grill LLC, lovingly fashioning meals of fine Indian and Pakistani cuisine for breakfast, lunch buffets, and dinner. Within the restaurant’s saffron-hued walls, a twinkling crystal chandelier casts a constellation of warm light over crimson tablecloths as the appetizing scent of freshly baked tandoori chicken, richly spiced lamb, and shrimp curries causes stomachs to grumble out Morse code demands for feasting. The bill of fare promises ample vegetarian options, such as the kitchen’s homemade paneer, as well as halal meals, ably adhering to any dietary rules or tastes with colorful veggie stews and savory dals alongside tender morsels of poultry, lamb, and seafood.

For more than a decade, La Contessa Ristorante has been filling Via Italia with the aromas of hand-stuffed ravioli, homemade pastas, and hearty sauces made from family recipes. Servers populate the dining room's white tablecloths and stray racecar beds with plates of sautéed chicken, tender veal, and seasoned fish as well as creamy risottos and pastas topped with salty italian meats and cheeses, rich sauces, and fresh vegetables.
