Wonderful spot with friendly people. The food was delicious and hearty. French classics with a great view. Loved the space and the meals. Really good quality ingredients in the dishes. The French pinion soup was as good as any I have had in paris and the duck confit as well. Only advice I would give is use fresh lemon juice in the cocktails. That was just ok. Other than that we will be back!

A perfect and intimate date night spot! The location is right on the water and in the heart of Pikes place market! I would recommend making a reservation ahead of time if possible as the space is smaller and quite popular! Everything on the menu looked so fantastic and everything that we tried was delicious! The wait staff was kind and not overbearing which is nice as I’m someone who doesn’t like being interrupted often. Some reviews mentioned the ability to not change the tip option, but it was available and at no point was I told I couldn’t change the amount if so desired. The ambiance was very nice and I would definitely return for special occasions!

Fantastic food, fantastic service, fantastic view. The waiter was really knowledgeable and delightful. I really appreciated the tidbit that the waiter shared that they import their bread and such from France instead of using American grains. As someone who doesn’t tolerate American grains without consequences, but doesnt have issues with European breads this was a hugely pleasant surprise. All the food was excellent.

Lovely French restaurant, great views, delicious food. I had the lamb chops on a bed of greens and my husband had the Chilean sea bass over greens and mushrooms. We both cleaned our plates – so, so yummy. My husband had the cheesecake for dessert and devoured every bite. Service is friendly and attentive. A very nice place for a special meal.

I made a reservation far in advance for our 6 year anniversary dinner. We arrived a few min past our reservation time and the host gladly sat us down with no issues. We had a spectacular view of the Seattle waterfront. The service was top notch and we received a complimentary champagne to celebrate our anniversary – thank you! The food and drinks were amazing. Oysters, Escargots, The duck special, Vesper martini, Syrah wine, just hit the spot. I highly recommend this place and highly recommend making a reservation. This restaurant is quaint and has a charm to it.

Everything here was absolutely wonderful!
The food, delicious!
The Service, great!
Views, awesome!
Then comes the bill. They add a 5% charge, I asked and no one knkw why. There is a statement that says the 5% goes to the restaurant?!?
They who pays for the food? Its confusing and it’s annoying.
It would be great if someone can explain why the 2 seperate charges.
That cost them 2 stars.

A hidden gem with spectacular views and an intimate atmosphere. The food was exceptional, and the service warm and attentive—a great French dining experience here in Seattle.

I have to say, this is one of the most beautiful places I have ever been to in terms of view and ambience. It is so cozy and quaint that it just pulls you towards it. The food was delightful and very fair in terms of price. I tried their Steak sandwich(forgive me for forgetting the right name) and tried their crab cake sandwich. They were stupendous. The service was a bit slow, just for our table, but I cannot let that get in the way of the review. Overall it was amazing. I would DEFINITELY recommend this place!!

This is definitely the “must-visit” if you’re in the area and looking for a great place to eat. (We’ve tried other spots nearby that were disappointing.) The service was excellent, the drinks were spot on, and everything we ordered was absolutely delicious. My husband even said it was one of the best foie gras dishes he’s ever had at a restaurant – and that’s really saying something!

Adorable, romantic French restaurant on Pike Place. Don’t be an idiot like me and walk right by the neon red signs pointing to it just past the place where they throw the fish. It’s very cozy, very small. Lovely views of the water but beware you need to make special up charged reservations for a window seat. The food is phenomenal and the service is parfait. Would happily go again.
