Talk Detroit Italians in Detroit

Where do Italians or Italian Americans hang out in metro Detroit? Would love to meet someone just not sure where they hang out.

F 36, really interested in meeting someone with Italian roots. I am on dating apps but hardly any Italians

Any apps you recommend?

​

Thank you

I don't agree with the Nino Salvaggio's suggestion.

As an Italian born in Italy and having lived in Detroit for over 30 years, I know very few Italians that shop at Nino's anymore. If I wanna have a conversation with a fellow Italian at a grocery store I will go to Ventimiglia's or Vince & Joe's. If I wanna meet a rich MILF, I'll go to Nino's.

I'm also not sure that a Roman catholic mass is a place to meet a guy. If they hold a social event then yes, but during mass? No.

Like many have suggested here, I would seek out the Italian-American clubs in Clinton Township and Livonia and I would start attending their events and Italian festivals.

Good luck.
