Known for its Parisian-inspired menu, this Seattle restaurant is tucked into the corner of Pike Place market. Its décor is simple and unassuming in classic French bistro style, with a checkerboard tile floor, crisp white linens and framed photos. Though the menu leans towards French classics, it includes dishes with multi-ethnic pedigrees, plus an abundance of seafood. Mussels lounge in a balsamic vinaigrette spiked with bacon, celery and shallots. Oysters swim in a buttery broth. Roasted tomatoes are paired with saffron and thyme in a fragrant seafood stew. Despite the seafood focus, meat is hardly an afterthought; we also suggest the cider-glazed rabbit roulade and lamb served with sweet potato hash. There's chocolate pot de crème to end your meal on a sweet note. The wine lists---both regular and the reserve version---highlight Northwest, California and French varietals. The bar is also well-stocked with port, brandy, eau de vie, and other after-dinner libations.
