The 38 Best Restaurants in Detroit, Spring 2025 | Eater Detroit
"Bar Pigalle takes a cue from Detroit’s reputation as the Paris of the Midwest with this dramatically renovated space set on the ground level of the historic Carlton Lofts in Brush Park. Behind the restaurant are hospitality veterans Joseph Allerton and Travis Fourmont (of the shuttered Michael Symon’s Roast), along with chef Norm Valenti. The Eater Award-winning spot is named after the Parisian neighborhood Quartier Pigalle — home of the Moulin Rouge. Expect a variety of hot or cold small plates like heirloom carrots, red snapper crudo, and an American wagyu steak and frites, along with an impressive drink menu featuring a wide variety of beers, wines, and refreshing takes on classic drinks like a Parisian Painkiller made with Pierre Ferrand 1840, Vadouvan syrup, coconut, and sour orange. Vibe check: Bar Pigalle offers an elegant, low-key option for Sunday brunch, featuring a decadent Croque Madam made with sourdough and city ham with a sunnyside egg." - Serena Maria Daniels
