Bar Pigalle

"Bar Pigalle takes a queue 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 scenes of 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 bison tartare, guanciale-wrapped frog legs, and a coney-style 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." - Serena Maria Daniels

"Bar Pigalle takes a queue 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. Pretty much the ultimate in romantic dining. The Eater Award-winning spot is named after the Parisian neighborhood Quartier Pigalle — home of the Moulin Rouge.

"Located in Brush Park, a neighborhood once known as Little Paris, this casual, but well-appointed space offers French cuisine and drink with a modern flair. Expect appetizers like oysters served with mignonette or foie gras torchon with fragrant dram-soaked apples and cinnamon toast points. The menu features a few takes on American comfort food, such as the Pigalle burger on a brioche bun topped with dill pickle, shredded iceberg lettuce, Dijonnaise, and house-made American cheese. For cocktails, try the Corsican Negroni, aptly named after the French island. A white Negroni, made with French gin and Suze has all of the bitterness and floral notes you expect from this Bordeaux ancestor." - Will Reaume
