On Wednesday, November 16, Eater will present the 2016 Eater Awards, our seventh annual celebration of all that's made the restaurant world run — and run wild — in the past 12 months. Winners will be selected on both the local and national levels in five major categories, and the voting begins right now. The polls are now closed for restaurant of the year and chef of the year. Today we focus on design. Which restaurant is this year’s Stone Cold Stunner? Decide in the polls below.

Here's how the voting works: Eater editors have named nominees in Detroit for each of five major categories. Editors will pick winners from the nominees, and readers will vote to award one nominee in each category with a readers’ choice award. Ready to play your part? This poll will be open for 24 hours starting at 11 a.m. EST on November 9 and closing at 11 a.m. EST on November 10; voting irregularities will be strictly policed. Another poll will go live on November 10, so make sure to tune in.
