Kaitlin MartineauDecember 12, 2015The cheese plate with fig jam, three types of international cheese, pears, and nuts. The side of fries are nice and crispy too! Romantic view of the wheel
Farah FaisalOctober 28, 2012The duo de canard au poivre vert (duo of duck entree) is really delicious, the green pepper cream sauce really makes the dish. There's an option to add foie gras to really make the dish over the top.
Ralph MeyerDecember 29, 2021One of our go to places when we visit the Pikes Place Market for lunch or dinner. While not inexpensive, the quality of the food and service is very good. Great choice for French cuisine and wine.
Serious EatsJuly 21, 2014On sunny days—and especially later in the week—arrive right at 5 p.m., when happy hour starts, or just before, to make sure that you snag a deck table.
Victor WongMay 12, 2014Great view and good food. Expensive. Tried halibut, lamb, pork tenderloin, and duck confit and all were delicious. Pork tenderloin came with bone marrow and fries. Fries were overly salted though.- Jesse JohnstonDecember 15, 2014The oyster buckets are worth the price and wait time. Try and get a table near the windows for an oceanside view!
- The Seattle TimesMay 14, 2010The city's most romantic happy hour also offers a $2.95 appetizer list, including three buttery croissants with ham and cheese, steamed mussels and goat cheese and garlic mousse. 5-7 M-F, 8-10 Sat Read more
Mingfei YanMarch 24, 2015Came here for brunch with great view of the waterfront. Food is quite good too.
Michelle NMarch 24, 2018The manager discriminates and is dishonest. He denied myself and colleague open seats, then sat 2 Caucasian women who entered after us w/ no reservation. When confronted, he lied, then admitted to it
Watch the sunset over Puget Sound from the upstairs bar, only open Fri-Sat in summer. Get a cocktail and smoked salmon. Their outdoor deck is now always open in summer.
Ashley RoseAugust 27, 2019Igloos are back on the Patio beginning in October with a $150 min spend for reservation
Chan SSeptember 23, 2010The view from the deck is awesome and the 8 appetizers for $20 is pretty unbeatable (during happy hour).
Michael HartzellApril 17, 2010Don't be fooled by the walk through the Pike Place Market on the way to Maximilien. Ask for Mike C. He is great! The events for special holidays are best. Read more
Jeffrey McGaffeyDecember 23, 2011Worst service ever, the waitor only cared on the large parties to introduce specialsask if we wanted anything to drink. Had to practically grab him to get his attention.
Daniel NormanApril 15, 2011Stick to the cocktail menu for mixed drinks. The bartenders are shaky outside that repertoire.
- Emily SkeyJune 28, 2011No such thing as cheap appetizers. Greasy food and bland sauces. 6 krone burg for 15
