ABOUT

At Marrow West Village, we connect people to local, ethically sourced food through bold, chef-driven flavors, whole-animal butchery, and meaningful hospitality.

Marrow West Village is more than a restaurant — it’s an experience. As a proud Detroit flagship destination for thoughtful dining and whole-animal butchery, we create intimate, guided experiences that reflect our deep respect for food, craft, and community.

Our menu is eclectic and curated with care, shaped by the seasons, driven by our relationships with Great Lakes farmers, and rooted in whole-animal utilization. Every dish tells a story. Every cut has a purpose. Every detail is intentional.

As both a restaurant and butcher shop, we offer high-quality, ethically raised meats you can trust, and meals that surprise and satisfy. Whether you’re joining us for a seated dinner, browsing our butcher counter, or getting hands-on in one of our classes, you’ll experience food that is guided by purpose and grounded in connection.

At Marrow, hospitality is personal, and everything we serve is made to be remembered.

Our Leadership Team

  • PING HO

    Founder

    Ping Ho spent her childhood in Singapore, where she often accompanied her grandmother to the “wet market" and where the direct connection between buyers and butchers left a lasting impression. Those producers' unparalleled knowledge of meat origin and quality, as well as their strong bond to the local community, were inspirations for launching Marrow. Ping is also the owner of downtown wine bar The Royce and a co-founder in Mink. She is currently working on launching Marrow's meat processing arm Marrow Detroit Provisions, which will have a home in Eastern Market in 2025.
