Bar Pigalle, located at 2915 John R Street in the heart of Brush Park, Detroit, offers a New-American, French-inspired dining experience combined with a creative selection of playful cocktails and an exceptional wine list. Led by award-winning mixologist Travis Fourmont and Chef Norman Valenti, Bar Pigalle is nestled within The Carlton Lofts, a historic building designed by renowned American architect Louis Kamper.

Why they're an Icon

Executive chef: Norman Valenti

From the OpenTable editors: Part of a new wave of French restaurants in Detroit and named a best new restaurant by Eater, this Brush Park destination is the place to be for stellar cocktails and wine. That's because award-winning drinks pro Travis Fourmant leads the team and has created a lineup that includes a Corsican Negroni and a Parisian Painkiller. Pair it with American Wagyu steak frites, mussels, and more in a chic space with turquoise banquettes, hanging plants, and exposed brick.

My wife and I came here because we both love French food and this place was highly rated. After dining here, we see why. Delicious food, excellent service and a great ambiance. We’d absolutely eat here again if we were back in Detroit.

Not very good. Tasting Menu. Meal was average with chicken liver and too much bread to start a meal. Beat Salad was a highlight but everyone has done that. The pork belly was good with a sweet taste, sugar. Next came the sugar doused / maple Surup Bressel Sprouts. Never ruin Sprouts with mass sugar. And the sweet nasty mash potato's, bad. Then a sugar Desert. Sugar, Sugar, Sugar - I felt like I went out for a Candy meal.

The hidden burger was very good. It’s a little pricey but for the place itself I understand its ambience. Wed definitely go back. Our server, I forgot his name was very nice.

What a gem! Our experience could not have been better. Our service was very attentive, and between the four of us choosing from different items on the menu we all loved everything!! Normally that does not happen. The two salads for the table both had wonderful flavors with such a nice variety of items in them. Our apps, dinner entreés and desserts were all just as exciting and yummy!! And the venue is charming, and almost a contemporary Victorian feel. We will definitely go back!
