ST. CLAIR SHORES — If you’re looking for a place with great food, live music and a mix of old-fashioned comfort and contemporary features, DOX Grillhouse in St. Clair Shores is a restaurant to add to your list.
DOX Grillhouse, which opened in December, boasts a diverse menu. The restaurant is becoming popular for its soups and salads, chicken wings and pizza, juicy burgers and a full array of entrees and homemade sauces to fit the tastes of every palate. Or, just grab a drink and your favorite appetizer from potato skins to spinach artichoke dip.
DOX Grillhouse also attracts some of the most talented musicians in the area, and some who hail from outside Michigan. The restaurant was built to accommodate live performers. Live music is available most weekends to add a cool vibe to the already bustling atmosphere.
Owner Anthony Mancini has owned Celina’s Bar & Grill in Madison Heights for over seven years, but the St. Clair Shores native wanted to open a restaurant that fits his vision right in his hometown. It was designed with an architect who specializes in the hospitality sector. The rooftop bar and a patio area will open as the weather warms, extending the restaurant’s capacity to around 250 people and giving patrons more options for comfort.
“We’ve been extremely busy so far, so the demand seems to be there,” said Mancini. He purchased the vacant land at 25225 Jefferson Ave. in 2022 and took nearly a year to build DOX Grillhouse. “It’s great to have this right where I grew up and went to school.”
DOX Grillhouse also has many gluten-free options and serves WOWEE! ice cream and chocolate cake among its dessert options. Patrons who come for a drink, a bite or a snack will also experience a best-in-class sports event viewing experience with a large video wall that is sure to feature Detroit-area pro or college teams in action.
DOX Grillhouse is open seven days a week from Noon to 12 a.m., but it may stay open until 1 am during busy late nights. Learn more by visiting doxgrillhouse.com or calling (586) 859-7500.
