10 restaurants and bars expected to open in metro Detroit in 2026 - Detroit Metro Times

Here's a paraphrased version of the article:

Excitement is brewing in Metro Detroit as several new restaurants and bars prepare to open their doors in 2026. Among them are Gardenside Brewing, which will transform a plot of land in Detroit's Core City neighborhood into a brewery with craft beer, farm-to-table food, large bright windows, and a lush landscape. The brewery aims to open late in the year.

A popular brunch chain named after legendary boxer Joe Louis is also expanding its presence in the city. The new location will be its third in Metro Detroit, opening at 1528 Woodward Ave. in downtown Detroit. The existing locations are in New Center and Southfield.

Supino Pizzeria, a beloved Detroit pizzeria, plans to open its third location in Beverly Hills, near Little Caesars Arena. This expansion marks the first time the popular restaurant has ventured outside of Eastern Market and New Center.

Meanwhile, a food truck spinoff of Baobab Fare will set up shop at 2465 Russell St. in Eastern Market. Waka specializes in East African cuisine and promises to bring new flavors to the area.

New bagel shop Bev's Bagels is also expanding into Ann Arbor, with plans to open its second location at 115 E. Liberty St. This comes after the successful launch of a brick-and-mortar shop in Detroit last year.

Sunda New Asian, an Asian chain based in Chicago, Nashville, and Tampa, is set to join the Metro Detroit dining scene by opening a location at 33 W. Columbia St., near Little Caesars Arena.

Medusa Cucina Siciliana will be the latest Italian eatery to enter the fray. Founded by Anthony Lombardo, who co-owns SheWolf Pastifico & Bar down the street, this restaurant promises to serve up Sicilian and Mediterranean cuisine at its downtown location in Core City.

Overall, 2026 is shaping up to be a promising year for foodies in Metro Detroit, with numerous new restaurants and bars set to join the scene.

Omg I'm so hyped for 2026 🀩🍴! Just thinking about all these new spots opening up is making me wanna try everything on the menu. Gardenside Brewing sounds like a total game-changer – who wouldn't want a brewery with craft beer and a lush landscape in Core City? And Supino Pizzeria is always a winner for Detroit-style pizza lovers πŸ•πŸ‘Œ

But I'm also super curious about Waka's East African cuisine – never had that before! πŸ’‘ Bev's Bagels expanding to Ann Arbor is also a win, because who doesn't love a good bagel? πŸ˜‚ And Sunda New Asian sounds like it'll bring some fresh flavors to the scene.

I wonder if anyone's tried Medusa Cucina Siciliana yet... heard great things about their owners at SheWolf Pastifico & Bar πŸ€”. Can't wait for 2026 to roll around and get my foodie fix! πŸ˜‹
 
I'm so hyped about all these new spots comin' to town! Like, who wouldn't want to try out Gardenside Brewing's craft beer or Supino Pizzeria's famous pies? And a food truck spinoff of Baobab Fare is just what Eastern Market needed - I've been lookin' forward to tryin' some East African cuisine for ages! 🀯🍴 As for Bev's Bagels openin' up in Ann Arbor, that's like music to my ears... I mean, bagels are the best! πŸ˜‚ Can't wait to see what other gems 2026 has in store for us. Maybe they'll even have a new spot for the best diners in town? 🀞
 
Omg 🀩 I'm so stoked about all these new restaurants coming to metro detroit!!! πŸŽ‰ gardenside brewing sounds like an amazing spot 😍 can't wait to try their craft beer & farm-to-table food 🍴🍺 baobab fare's food truck is going to be a game changer 🀀 and medusa cucina siciliana sounds so deliciously italian πŸπŸ‘Œ ann arbor is getting a new bagel shop too? yes, please πŸ₯― can't wait to try them out! πŸ€—
 
I'm not sure why everyone's so stoked about these new spots comin' to town... I mean, don't get me wrong, it'll be great to have more options, but are we really gonna need 10+ breweries and pizzerias in Detroit? It feels like they're just catering to the tourists now. And what's with all the chain restaurants poppin' up everywhere? Can't we support our local businesses for once? πŸ€” I'm actually kinda excited about the food truck spinoff, Waka, but I hope they don't just bring in more of the same old East African cuisine that everyone else is servin' up. Maybe it's time to see some new flavors around here... 😏
