Café Muse

David Smith and Greg Reyner opened Café Muse in Royal Oak, Michigan, in March of 2006.  Reyner is the creator of the unique menu, which he likes to refer to as “comfort food with a twist.”  A classically trained chef from the Culinary and Hospitality Institute of Chicago, his inspiration comes from the great restaurants they have visited around the world. At the heart of the restaurant, is their belief in natural cuisine.  They’ve created a simple, European-style menu that features as many fresh, locally produced and organic ingredients as possible. They’ve been featured in both Esquire Magazine and on The Oprah Winfrey Show.  In November of 2008, they outgrew their original twenty-seat location and moved down the street to their new home at 418 S. Washington Ave in downtown Royal Oak.
