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.

Such a wonderful little hideaway in Pike Place Market with rustic setting and nice views of the waterfront. The soup au gratin (french onion soup) was on point, and the "Maple Leaf" duck breast was out of this world filled with flavor.

Place adds a 5% service fee. But other than that our service was outstanding and the food was very unique and tasted amazing. Our seats were tight which was normal of a French restaurant but our server (gentleman with the glasses) helped move us to a table with more space and a view of the Ferris wheel. The oysters, French onion soup, and escargot were exceptional. The entrees they offered were very unique and that I’ve never tried before.

The food and the drinks were definitely top-notch. My concern came with the length of time it took for the food. Our reservation was for 5:30 PM and we did not even leave until 8:40 PM because our food took so long.
