What an amazing night. Chef McCrain and the team at Copine blew my expectations out of the water! The atmosphere was relaxing and cozy, the staff was wonderful! All of our accomodations met , any questions we had got answered, service was smooth. We had the starter and mid course add ons which made for more fun! Getting to try new flavors and elegant preparations was invigorating. Watching my girlfriends face light up as she tried different foods, combinations and textures for the first time was the best experience I could ask for. Thank you team at Copine for an unforgettable dining experience.

Decided to visit because of the good reviews and the fact that they are closing. It's $140 pp for a 3 course menu including dessert, with no luxurious ingredients, so we expect their dishes to be creative and flavorful. We did the prix fixe and added the mid course. Unfortunately, none of the dishes had a complex enough flavor profile. All we could say was the raw ingredients were of excellent quality. They were plated nicely but the portions are too small. The flavors were easily reproducible ourselves. There are many other fine dining restaurants in Seattle who offer 5 course or more for a similar price, providing more luxurious ingredients and more imaginative flavor profiles. This one is really overpriced for what they offer.

I enjoy fresh menus that change, but I do admit that I'm not an adventurous eater, and I do have allergies and things that make it challenging at times. The current menu at Copine is great! It was a perfect menu for the end of summer and the choices of flavors and ingredients were great. I was impressed. My favorite item though, was the unlisted amuse bouche haha I could have had a full bowl of that pea soup shot... perfect flavor. The corn and cojito agnolotti was also super good and highly recommend it. I didn't enjoy the wine list as much as other places, but that's ok, not required to enjoy the food creations. The seared tuna was pretty on par.

Not worth the money — for the same price, you can find better options for fine dining.

I’ve had one of the best fine dining experiences in Seattle here at Copine, even better than Canlis.
Seattle cuts loose to a lot of fine dining experiences, especially a lot of the restaurants here do not pay attention to detail, or service usually comes subpar. I would say Copine really focuses on the basics of making an experience for you, so it becomes a meaningful experience.
First and foremost, they have a great understanding of French cuisine. Everything tastes very delicate and well thought out. I definitely loved the steak and their meat dishes. I think the chef has way better understanding of cooking meat rather than seafood, so as someone who loves meat, this was an enjoyable meal.
How can I forget about their service! Their staff was thoroughly trained and very knowledgeable. I really loved all the wine pairings and hearing the thoughts behind. Service was above and beyond, and everyone was so kind to make my birthday dinner something special.
There are 2 fine dining restaurants I would recommend from now on: Copine and Cafe Juanita.
This place is such a gem! My husband and I frequent many restaurants throughout seattle and Copine has some of the best service we’ve ever had in the area. Thanks Christine!
My husband and I got opposite dishes on the prefix menu and everything was delicious. We’ll definitely be back for a special occasion.

Always an amazing culinary experience. The chef builds complex, delicious, and satisfying dishes that are also a feast for the eyes. I went recently to eat from the bar menu and chat with a few friends. I can see myself coming back to do this more often this coming year—especially since their bar menu changes every week!

I really wanted to like Copine. The ambiance, service, and wine selection were all solid and professional, though not exceptional. Unfortunately, the most important part of any dining experience—the food—fell short, especially for a high-end restaurant with a prix fixe menu.
The amuse-bouche was a bright spot and gave me some hope, but everything that followed was underwhelming. The seafood entrée, in particular, was a major letdown. It was so salty and over seasoned that I couldn’t bring myself to eat more than a few bites. I've read other reviews mentioning similar issues with the seafood, and I have to agree. Over seasoning often suggests an attempt to cover up less-than-stellar ingredients—though I won’t make assumptions about quality, I will say that the flavors just didn’t sit right with either of us.
Presentation was thoughtful, and the staff were courteous and attentive, but ultimately, none of that could compensate for food that simply wasn’t enjoyable. At this price point and with this level of aspiration, I expected much better. Sadly, I can’t recommend Copine based on our experience.

We went for a casual dinner the other day. The wine selection was rather poor. Their service was not very friendly. We felt quite rushed whenever the servers come and try to take our plates away. The food was of a mediocre quality. Every dish lacked something, either too buttery, salty or the flavour mixture was not there. However we both enjoyed asparagus velouté, it was surprisingly pleasant. Overall unfortunately we had a disappointing dining experience. eeee5
