French Restaurants near Mercer Island, WA

“Lovely smooth coffee and great pastries“

“IMO 4 stars is quite generous.

Service was great. Starters and small plates were fantastic. But the mains we got (steak + chicken) were lacking. The chicken was overcooked/dry and the sauce was way too salty. The steak was not tender - not sure what cut it was but it wasn’t great; the sauce for it was also too salty. For the price of the mains I expected higher quality. Maybe the duck or fish would be better?“

“Everything is great there!“

“Great place for brunch in Pike market, staff is very friendly and the food is delicious“

“Deliciosa comida Definitivamente. Súper recomendado. Visitar.“

“We surprised our daughter for an early 32nd birthday. The four of us had an incredible time laughing and being awestruck at the talented performers. These were first rate acts of singing, dancing, acrobatics, athleticism and grace. The venue, service, atmosphere was electric. We loved every bit of it! Worth the money and the food was excellent. An experience we’ll talk about for weeks.“

“Provide high-quality local ingredients and creative dishes, with a comfortable atmosphere and attentive service.“

“Drinks a bit watered down but staff very personable and quick service“

“An exceptional wine bar. A very intentional space created for intimate conversations and connections to be made. I went here with my friend for her birthday and it was such a relaxing and fun environment. You’ll have to look at the menu board, but if you don’t know what to drink, ask! They are so well-verse in their menu selection and have great recommendations. We had a true girl dinner, a full charcuterie board with glasses of red wine. Everyone, including the patrons, are so nice! You can definitely start a conversation at the bar counter and make a new friend. The owner, David, has created such an incredible space attracting such genuine people and will offer you life advice if you want it or just amazing cheese recommendations. You won’t regret coming here!“

“It's just fantastic. Ambiente encantador y comida deliciosa.“

“Nell’s is by far a gem of the Northwest. Their food and service have always been amazing and we just found their quarantine take out is no different. It’s one of those all time favorites where you have fun just reading the menu and then are giddy waiting for your meal. A must try venue that we are grateful to have in Greenlake!“

“Great Mediterranean food in a pleasant, neighborhood atmosphere 😊“

“Although finding parking is a bit of a challenge, this place did not disappoint. I chose a variety of items to try, the regular croissant, the chocolate hazelnut croissant, the pan au chocolat, and the Kouign amann. Each and everyone of them was amazing. Perfectly flaky and soft all at the same time, the flavors out of this world.“

“My wife and I have come here for the drinks and occasionally truffle pommes frites or some oysters, but this time we tried some of the other menu items for dinner. My wife got the Halibut (Chapter 6) and I got the Mushroom Pasta dish. (Chapter 5)

I asked Casey if he recommended the mushroom dish and he said it was one of his favorites. I'm not a foodie, so I don't get overly excited over food but let me tell you... It was so good that it prompted me to write a review about it. I actually felt an endorphin rush from eating it! My wife loved the halibut, (which I also tried) and I would say getting her to eat fish is usually a challenge unless her fisherman father prepares it!

I would recommend a Manhattan or Old Fashioned, which Casey also pointed me towards some new Rye to try. Fantastic as always!

I had placed an order for oysters but apparently they were forgotten, but I was so enamored with the mushroom dish that I didn't even care. Casey offered them to me on the house as he felt bad, which was a very nice gesture. I wasn't upset at all!

Now we would like to try all the other dishes, because if both meals were that good, how can they miss with anything else?

I didn't take photos of the food because I inhaled it :)

Thanks Casey and the rest of the staff for great service and amazing food/drinks!“

“What a treat. Very appealing at so many levels. Service, greeter, wait staff. Food and wine appeals to our tastes. Will be back soon having our 65th university we have been to a few retardants.

Already scheduling our next visit. ummmm Trip home a beautiful fall afternoon along Puget the sound.“

“This is my favorite place to eat and drink in the city! HOWEVER they got rid of my favorite drink the Gilda Radner…. WHYYYYYYY. It was the best most savory martini ever. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE BRING IT BACK and I promise I’ll make my review 5 stars 🍸❤️“

“The Alhadeff Grill is the "high end" restaurant for South Seattle College's Culinary Arts School, which has turned out many fine chefs and cooks for many years now. The students do all prep, cooking and service...and a fine job they do. I came here with two old friends to see what was on the menu for lunch (that's all they serve) and to see how the school had changed. My wife and I used to live five blocks away and would eat here from time to time. Hadn't been here in nearly 30 years. Lunch is served from 11-1 Mon.-Thurs. while school is in session. Check the web site to be sure they're serving...and for reservations for large groups. Two of us had the well-chilled Vichyssoise (potato & leek) soup for an appetizer ($4.00). It was o.k., but not oniony enough for my taste (but then I make an excellent Vichyssoise!). For our entree', two of us had the Steelhead served over a cauliflower cake ($12.00). It was delicious, though a small portion. The fish was perfectly cooked...soft and flaky and served with a light broth that was somewhat soaked up by the light, tasty thin cauliflower cake. My other buddy had a very small lamb shank wrapped in something green (a veggie?). He never commented about it, so I suspect he may not have been terribly impressed. Only one of us ordered dessert, a dark chocolate tart. We all wanted to get a strawberry Zabaglione, but they ran out of ingredients. Total bill for my soup and fish was $18.00. All-in-all it was a fun luncheon and a chance to support the school and its students. The head chef/instructor visited all tables to chat with the diners. Service was excellent by a young first year student. One thing I truly appreciated was you could actually hear one another talk without shouting here. It's a quiet restaurant...the last of a dying breed. Sadly, the retail bakery wasn't open, so I couldn't stop in for the scrumptious baked goods I used to buy years ago. If you live in the southwest end of Seattle, you owe it to yourself and the students to check it out.“

“Delicious high quality food“

“WOW!!!!
We went in “just to look” which my wife and I know is trouble! Lol - I started talking with a nice younger woman behind the counter and she was so knowledgeable - turns out Anne is the owner! Just people experience was exceptional and the treats, the best I’ve ever had! We end up with 3 different cakes, and 6/7 pastries - every one was a different experience and SO Good!

I’ve owned multiple businesses and people experience is my #1 then the product.

Both were incredible! Can’t wait to visit my mother in law again! Yes, I said that!

Let’s Go!“

“We enjoyed a lovely Valentine’s Day brunch at Cesar. It was a wonderful experience. The food was delicious and beautifully prepared and presented, the wine selection was impressive and we will be returning. Thank you Julian for your hospitality, it was much appreciated.“
