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.

It was my fiancé’s birthday and it was excellent service from Kevin, and the food was perfect. Everything was on time, it all tasted delicious with wine pairings along with the tasting menu. One of the best spots around

All around: Eat here, if the cost is in your range, you'll likely be happy you stopped in. We were, and seemingly everyone else in the restaurant was too. Specifics: Wanted to give five stars to everything, but it was just a notch shy. If I could give 4.7 stars, I would. Food: Fabulous, but not perfect. Steak was supposed to be medium-rare, came medium, was still absolutely great. The haloumi wasn't fabulous, too thin in my opinion, but the mixture it came on was shockingly good and became the highlight of the dish (enough that we recommended it to the table next to us when they were debating it). Scallops were good, though the one dish I felt perhaps overpriced for the size of the dish. Zucchini was good; worth ordering, but not something you absolutely have to have. Saw the burger and asparagus on the table next to us, both looked amazing and got positive response from the people who had them. Service: Very good, across the board, with great attention being paid to many fine details that really make for a great restaurant. Cost: Location/quality appropriate. Plenty of drinks at non-outrageous prices, and a bar manager who clearly cares about the drinks coming out of the bar. Saw him watching people for their responses to the drinks when they received them...nice to see someone care so much about their product. Ambiance/setup: Great design, great touches all over the place, booth seats are a little low so if you're short, get a chair.

This establishment is an absolute delight. The ambience is nothing short of extraordinary—an elegant fusion of warmth and sophistication that set the perfect stage for an unforgettable dining experience. Complementing the exquisite atmosphere is their impeccable five-star service, where every detail is attended to with grace and precision. And, of course, the culinary offerings are nothing less than exceptional, each dish a masterful creation that tantalizes the palate. A true gem in the dining world.

I went with my partner to celebrate his birthday, the food was amazing we loved every bite. Our server (Genevy) was very welcoming and made us feel appreciated and special. Will definitely return for more great food, drinks and service.

The food was delicious: whitefish and duck, with shareable sides of zucchini and marble potatoes. Everyone from the hostess to the "water-server" was helpful and courteous. The space was small but not crowded. There's a very well-stocked bar you can eat and drink at too. We would return!

The smash burger is fantastic. Whitefish, scallops and desserts were delicious. There isn’t a dud on the menu. Wine list is robust, but not overwhelming. Service was prompt, friendly and helpful.

Absolutely delicious food - no pretense here. Every dish was amazing - we so enjoyed the food, beverages and the server. Server had a mocktail created for our daughter that she loved. Everything was over the top fantastic! Would highly recommend.

As a table of 4, we ordered multiple items to share and ALL of them were fantastic! I found this special eatery a while ago and now bring my friends from out of town when they visit. I make the trek from Brighton (even on game day!) and its so worth it!
