HOLA FOLKS!
Latin dishes with faraway influences that are right at home right here.
Oh, and tequila… mezcal… coffee, pastries and whatnot.
As the only joint on this bustling multi-mile stretch of Big Beaver that’s one-of-one… Gran Castor has a certain obligation to represent the independent spirit on a chain-strewn corridor: and that’s what this crew does dish after dish and drink upon drink.
Crafted tacos. Inspired pizzas. Burly bowls. Baristas at the ready. Homey pastries.
And cocktails that are straightforward and anything but straight at the same time
