As soon as you walk in, it smells like you’re by the ocean. Love it. The food there is always 10/10. We tend to try out the specials each time we are there. Each dish has mouth-watering flavor combinations that keep us coming back. Our waiters and waitresses are always so helpful, and even made us their version of an espresso martini even though they don’t have one of the menu. They are very helpful with recommending wines that pair well with your dinner options. I have been here at least 5 times now and have never been disappointed.

Great selection of very tasty plates. We tried the dip, the mushrooms, the scallops and the fish on special. All super delicious and very elegant presentation. Good selection of cocktails and option for mixes outside the menu.

Friendly staff and delightful food. Everything is fresh, cocktails are amazing. Tried multiple dishes on different nights. This is a dream of a restaurant. Well decorated and understated for the quality of the food coming out of that kitchen. Outdoor dining available, onsite parking. It’s AMAZING.

I have been to this place a total of three times. 1st was pre-pandemic 2019; service was great but everything was salty. After this first visit I wanted to give it another chance. 2nd visit was Post-pandemic 2023. Walked up there around 6pm and we didn’t have a reservation. There was a group event going on and we’re turned away, which was understandable. My fault. April 11, 2023 we went back up with a reservation. For some reason I don’t have good luck with host at Voyager. Maybe it’s a personal issue but they don’t make you feel very welcome. Anyways, Service was great. Oysters were good. The dinners we had were just alright. Salty again and for the price I would say was not worth it. I wanted this place to be great too because they have such a cool and intimate venue. 2 stars for the wait staff.

Today, I visited Voyager for the first time. It was only 2 off us, so we didn’t do reservations. The bar is first come, first serve, for parties larger than 2 is suggest making reservations. Immediately when I walked in n, I was greeted by the hostess And sat immediately. We had Larry as our bartender, he was incredibly friendly and gave really good suggestions. We started off with the smoked salmon dip! Although it was really delicious it was my last favorite of everything I tried. This isn’t a negative thing because I truly enjoy everything I had. Up next we had the Caesar salad. The dressing was proportioned perfectly, the thin slices of parmesan cheese were divine and the anchovies were a nice additional touch. A friend recommended that I try the Oyster Mushrooms and this was hands down my favorite dish. The garlic, the sauce, the mushrooms it was an experience for sure. We also had the East coast oysters that were offered and they also didn’t disappoint. For drinks, we both had the Rum Punch that was offered during Happy Hour and trust me when I say , it packs a punch! I also brought home the Lemon Bar for dessert and it too was delicious. My only regret is that I haven’t visited Voyager before today, but I guarantee I’ll be back again!

We arrived a little early for our reservation to check out happy hour. Our bartender Jordan was helpful in selecting a few drinks and dishes. Good conversationalist. After an hour we went to sit for dinner where adorable Lily helped us pick out a few more drinks and dishes. Everything….and I mean everything, we tried was top tier. The flavors and preparation was *PERFECT*. We blew off this spot for years because of the Detroit food explosion. Much regret for not checking out Voyager sooner! Might be the top 3 Seafood spots I have had in my life. The drinks were well balanced as well.

I really want to like this restaurant. I’ve been here before and loved it. Sadly, they dropped the ball on the special tonight. The halibut was bone dry. It was way overcooked. It seems like it was just a simple but novice mistake that should have been spotted during plating. The rest of the dish was fantastic. The Fish itself was tough and chewy.

This is my favorite place in Ferndale to eat. The food is always so fresh – the menu changes and they always have good specials to reflect the seasons & freshness of food. They also have really good drinks, and even great mock tails too. Service has always been super friendly and personable. I love how small and quaint the restaurant is. 10 out of 10 every time.

Stellar show across the whole menu. Not a single miss anywhere, which makes it hard to pick favorites but I’ll try to hit the highlights: smoked squid in the shishito dish with lime was an excellent and unexpected combo, the black garlic with mushrooms was predictable but delicious, and both scallop dishes (Crudo of the day and the seared u10s) together were a beautiful example of the potential texture spectrum of the ingredient (meltingly soft in the crudo, meaty plump and crunchy in the seared scallop dish). I’d probably skip the cobbler next time (unimpressive after everything else) and I wish I’d known you can order the lobster roll off menu outside of happy hour but the upside is we’ll certainly try to come back!
