Our Story

A Cure for the Ordinary

Antidóte was founded by Detroit entrepreneur Nya Marshall of Diomo Hospitality as a place for evenings that feel different — on East Jefferson, minutes from Belle Isle.

The Idea

Built for Evenings That Feel Different

Antidóte opened on East Jefferson with a simple premise: Detroit deserved a room where vibrant food, serious wine, and confident cocktails could sit at the same table — without pretense, and without playing it safe.

Founder Nya Marshall built the concept around connection: dishes designed to be shared, a bar program built on technique rather than trend, and a dining room meant to hold everything from a first date to a milestone celebration.

The name says the rest. In a city defined by reinvention, Antidóte is the corrective to an ordinary night out.
