A new restaurant is coming soon to downtown Wyandotte after extensive renovation of the space.

Latitudes Restaurant & Bar will be located at 3455 Biddle Avenue. The large space can accommodate about 500 people and will be available for hosting events. The restaurant will feature waterfront dining, a seafood-focused menu and a Carribbean vibe, the Detroit Free Press reports.

According to the news outlet, the restaurant comes from Josh Cade, Ron Thomas and Leo Stevenson. The team, who bought the restaurant last September and started construction in October, brings a wealth of experience to the venture. Cade and Thomas are partners in JP’s Waterfront, a bar and grill in Gibraltar. Cade owns several other concepts in Michigan, including Whiskeys on the Water, Frank’s Pizza, The Iron Gate and the event venue District 142. Stevenson is a local investor and business owner.

The menu is expected to feature lots of signature seafood dishes, like yellow tail snapper from Key West, and American cuisine, including burgers and salads. Expect brunch service on weekends. Alan Sosa will be the executive chef.

Latitudes Restaurant & Bar is opening at the space formerly occupied by Portofino on the River, which closed at the end of 2023 after more than 40 years in business.

Latitudes Restaurant & Bar is expected to open soon. Keep up with the restaurant on Facebook for updates.
