The French restaurant landed at No. 4 on the 2024 Detroit Free Press/Metro Detroit Chevy Dealers Top 10 New Restaurants & Dining Experiences.
Le Suprême was the first restaurant to be completed in the renovated Book Tower on Washington Boulevard.The restaurant fits in with an overall 2023 Detroit restaurant trend of hotel eateries.
"No project was more ambitious nor impressive than Le Suprême at the Book Tower," wrote Lyndsay Green in naming the restaurant to the list. "The Book Tower project is one of historic preservation in which artisans went to great lengths to restore the venue, and that emphasis on honoring history extends to Le Suprême, the first restaurant to reach completion on the renovated premises."Le Suprême is reminiscent of a 20th-century Parisian bistro featuring bistro tables with marble tops and wrought-iron pedestals.
