Located in the former Michigan Oriental Theater serving exciting shareables in an iconic, historically-rich and high energy atmosphere. PAO is located in the former Michigan Oriental Theater, a space so rich in cultural history, we decided to preserve Detroit’s memories as part of our dining experience. Today, we reintroduce PAO the restaurant in the heart of Grand Circus Park. The flavors of PAO

draw upon Pan-Asian influences, a collaboration of efforts by Chef Howie Barnes, Chef Alex Farhat and the PAO culinary team. Our drink menu offers approachable, yet rare Asian spirits to be enjoyed as classic favorites. Stop in to sip your favorite handcrafted cocktails or share a meal with friends.

Our take on a timeless classic — PAO's Fig Old Fashioned 🥃 We start with premium bourbon, house-made fig syrup, a dash of bitters, a little brown sugar for complexity, and finish it with a dried fig.

Try it with our Asian Crispy Ribs or Tuna Tartare. Or if you have an appetite for an exceptional entrée, our Filet Mignon with a black garlic + mushroom purée or Genghis Khan Lamb Chops complement this bourbon drink perfectly.
