Our server either failed to get our order to the kitchen or the kitchen dropped it. One hour into our lunch we had been served only a cup of soup. When our main course finally came they got my wife’s order wrong. Had to rush eating to make our performance at Benaroya Hall. Terrible service ruined our meal.

We thought a French lunch on a rainy Seattle day would be cozy. It WAS! We loved every bite of food.

We had an exceptional meal and experience at Place Pigalle. A cozy atmosphere and good views of the waterfront if you’re seated by the window or out on the terrace is an extra reward. All the dishes were on step and for me being from Alaska I had to try their daily special wild King Salmon which was done perfectly as all of all our other dishes. The staff were very friendly and attentive to us. We would definitely dine there again when visiting Seattle’s Pike Place Market.

Great night out with friends for the Sunday after VDay. One of our favorites for relaxed dinner out though does hit your pocket book but worth it!

The bouillabaisse and crab cakes were outstanding. The warm beet salad exquisite. They were short staffed, but you wouldn’t have known it if they hadn’t shared it.
