Warm candlelight over a welcoming dining room

Downtown Farmington, Michigan

Somethingworth the wait.

A warm neighborhood restaurant — seasonal plates, a considered wine list, and a room that feels like it has always been here. We're setting the table now.

Opening 2026

The idea

A table worth gathering around

Table 42 began with a simple want: a place in our own neighborhood to sit a little longer. Honest food made from what's in season, a glass of something good, and a welcome that knows your name by the second visit. We're building that room now — right in the heart of Downtown Farmington — and we'd love for you to be there when the lights first come on.

A seasonal kitchen

Menus that follow the Michigan seasons — produce from growers we know, cooked simply and generously.

A considered cellar

An approachable wine list with room to wander, plus cocktails built around what's fresh and a quiet, well-kept bar.

A room that's yours

Low light, soft sound, and a table you'll want to linger at — whether it's a Tuesday or a once-a-year occasion.

Before & after

The room, coming together

These are the honest “before” shots — our space in Downtown Farmington, coming together inside and out. The finished result — the “after” — is coming soon.
