10 restaurants slated to open in metro Detroit in 2026 – Detroit Metro Times

This local brunch chain named in honor of Detroit’s legendary boxer plans to open a third location downtown in the spring. (It first launched in the New Center area in 2021 and recently opened a Southfield location.) The downtown spot is aiming to open in April at 1528 Woodward Ave.

The space at 664 Selden St. in Detroit’s Midtown has seen a revolving door of concepts in recent years, but perhaps this one will stick. It’s helmed by Anthony Lombardo, co-owner of the Italian-influenced SheWolf Pastifico & Bar down the street. The upcoming Medusa Cucina Siciliana will focus on cuisine of Sicily and the Mediterranean region, including pasta and seafood. An official opening day has not yet been announced, but we’d bet on early 2026.

This bagel shop is returning to Ann Arbor. Max Sussman first launched his Bev’s Bagels as a pop-up in the city in 2020, and after launching a brick-and-mortar shop in the former Detroit Institute of Bagels in Core City earlier this year, he’s aiming to open an Ann Arbor shop at 115 W. Liberty St. in late 2026.

With locations in Chicago, Nashville, and Tampa, this Asian chain is planning a Motor City location at 33 W. Columbia St. near Little Caesars Arena. The chain was founded in Chicago in 2009 by Filipino American chef Billy Dec and focuses on dishes from China, Japan, and Southeast Asia.

This Detroit purveyor of thin-crust pizza is expanding to the suburbs. Supino Pizzeria plans to open its third location at 31201 Southfield Rd. in Beverly Hills sometime in early 2026. Founded by Dave Mancini in Eastern Market in 2008, Supino’s expanded to the New Center area in 2021.

A food truck spinoff of Detroit’s Baobab Fare focusing on East African food, Waka plans to move into the former Russell Street Deli at 2465 Russell St. in Eastern Market.
