Really wonderful place with great food and a cool vibe! The halibut croquettes were great, crispy on the outside and warm and tender on the inside with great flavor and sauce. The carrots on the other hand missed the mark for us, the flavors felt like they were clashing and needed some sweetness to balance out the feta. The burger was a good classic one but nothing special, but the fries were the absolute standout of the night. The seasoning tasked exactly like bbq sauce and was fantastic. Overall would recommend this place for happy hour or a date night!

Short rib Paparadelle, steak Zabuton
Green A.

Very chic and elegant place in University Village! We came here on a weekday for Seattle Restaurant week - at $35pp we got a super delicious and high quality 3 course meal! For appetizers, the carrot soup and crab croquettes were the perfect portion and delicious. The soup had the perfect autumn flavor and creamy texture. The crab croquette came with zesty tartar sauce that complemented the dish. For the entree: short rib paparadelle had a generous amount of short rib that was super tender and flavorful. The Zabuton steak was also very tender and cooked perfectly - probably as good as the ones you'd get at a good steakhouse. Dessert was also very satisfying. We had a chocolate mousse that was creamy and not overly sweet/decadent. Our favorite was the blueberry lavender mousse which was perfectly floral and refreshing. Service was also quite fast and welcoming. This also seems like a great place for a happy hour!

Crispy duck

I went for an early dinner with a friend and we had a lovely experience. We started with non-alcoholic beverages, the Loire Valley Spritz and a ginger beer. Both were flavorful and fizzy, and fun drinks without alcohol are always appreciated. To eat, we began with the bread. It came with 6 pieces of bread, 3 slices of 2 types. My favorite was the butter with flaky salt. It also paired well with the sauce of my duck dish. For our mains, my friend had the burger and I had the crispy duck entree. My friend said the burger and fries were good, but he felt it was overpriced as a dish, which I can agree with. The crispy duck was crispy, albeit it slightly overcooked; but it was still delicious. I really liked the accompaniment of beans and kale with bacon lardons and breadcrumbs, and the sauce was SO good that I used our extra bread to sop it up. I had a coupon for a complementary dessert, so we enjoyed the opera cake. All of the layers were tasty and went well together, and I liked how rich the chocolate ganache was. Our server was kind and provided food recommendations. The food came out quickly. The ambiance of the restaurant was upscale but not stuffy. If you are looking for a nice restaurant for date night and have the budget, check out Delille en Ville!

This is a great spot for a wine and dine occasion with friends. I came for lunch and had a few shareables and a wine flight. The food was delicious and paired well with the wine. The inside and ambiance is very beautiful and spacious with friendly staff, which makes the dining experience more enjoyable. I'd stop by for a happy hour to enjoy some wine with friends!

Oysters, beet salad and halibut croquettes
Amy Y.

Randomly found this place while walking around the U village. Nice atmosphere with good customer service. Really enjoyed salmon perfectly cooked inside and out.

They were advertising $2.50 oysters. What's a girl to do on a hot summer evening after a disappointing World Cup loss? It was a consolation for the loss of Korea to South Africa in the World Cup. Went with their House Ginger Beer -- excellent with that lime tang -1 but asked about their Forget-Me-Not rosé and Blanc de Blanc as well as their Métier line. Excellent and knowledgeable service by Donny. Great to know where to get an oyster fix.

New place in UVillage. Friendly staff and patrons. Their wines are always good. We didn't try any food. Will try again!

Dessert!

I came to DeLille for an RDI event but decided to have dinner and get the full experience! The space is very inviting and thoughtfully curated by DWS. We were lucky to be seated in the "speakeasy / wine tasting room" that have a more lux feel with Bordeaux burgundy painted walls, posh seating, a moody ambience. For dinner, I ordered a few appetizers to share with 2 others that joined me that evening. - Crab salad 4/5 - Grilled & chilled blue prawns 4/5 - Beet salad 4/5 - French fries with smoke aioli 5/5 For dinner I had the seared black cod served with charred cabbage and carrot sauce. The cook on the fish was great. Really enjoyed the different textures of the dish. I would rate it 4/5. My friend had the Mafaldine Pasta and it was rather delicious with the flavorful lamb and al dente pasta, 5/5 would recommend that dish. My other friend had the steak that came with a large portion of fries (awesome!) For dessert, we had to try all 3. The olive oil cake, opera cake and the pistachio. Highly recommend any of those desserts. Very well done, rich and just the right amount of sweetness! The service was amazing. We had a fabulous time and would come back. The drinks were also very delicious. You can't go wrong with DeLille wine!

Bar, my croque and dining room.
Ric C.

I had been looking forward to coming here and was actually disappointed. The service was excellent and I had a French 75 cocktail that was one of the best ever. The staff was friendly and the bartender/waiter was fun to talk to. My friend and I shared the Dungeness Salad appetizer and it was so bland and had NO taste of the crab. The the lunch menu was limited and disappointing. They only sell brunch Friday-Sunday. I had the croque monseur and it was meh and greasy, along with fries which had been raved about and there's lots of places with better. My friend had a chicken sandwich which was meh also and felt the same about the fries. The French 75 and bartender were the only things to rave about.

Review based on brunch service only. DeLille En Ville is a great addition to UVillage and it's nice to have restaurant option that has a more 'adult vibe'. The decor/feel is different from their Woodinville restaurant, it has a bright and warm feel and there was a private section I think for DeLille members. There was also a semi-private section which is great option if you have a lare party. On to the menu - overall I felt like there was good selection for shareables lunch/brunch and heavier plates - it wasn't too little or too much. Price wise, it seemed a bit high but comparable for similar style restaurants. It's nice that you can also just grab coffee and go without dining. Food: Mimosa with mango juice: this was delicious! The bubbly was great - I wish I ordered a bottle! Croque Monseiur: good size for the price, it was hearty, cheesy and good amount of ham with a good balance of mornay sauce - it was just enough to sop the bread. The salad was simple but tasty and was not overdressed. Egg came late, so the croque was not as warm anymore. Apple & Hazelnut Mille Feuille: good option if you're looking for something light. The apple butter and vanilla cream was a tasty combo, the cream had a nice dense but light texture - it'd be be great to add on top of ice cream! Service: front of house was friendly and welcoming and our server was nice and helpful. Not sure if they didn't hear about the egg for croque monseiur, so it didn't come with it when served. When asked about it, he said it was an extra fee and we informed them that we know about it and still wanted it. My friend and I were surprised that they didn't take our dishes back - instead they were left at our table and the eggs came out seperately. While I was observing the other tables, it seemed like it took some time for servers to get orders or even check up on them. All in all- it was a good experience. I would for sure go back for drinks and try other dishes - great place to meet with friends, but will wait until some of the service wrinkles are ironed out.

We made reservations for Friday during their grand opening. I have mixed feelings about this place for now. There's nothing glaringly wrong but I felt that the experience and food was not worth the price point. You can easily spend $100 - $150 per person with drinks, an app or dessert, and main course. With that price point, I'd expect to be wowed by something, but this experience left me pretty ambivalent. Nothing about the experience left me feeling like "you have to try this!" or like they had a competitive advantage over other restaurants of the same price point when it came to taste of food, drinks, or apps/dessert. This place has a different vibe than the Woodinville restaurant. The front area is a lounge where you could have coffee during the day. On a sunny day, this would be a nice place to sit but it felt drab for dinner after dark. As you move back into the restaurant, there is a back room with blue walls that feels much more like a dinner spot. There's lots of nooks and crannies throughout the place that could make it interesting for private groups. I would like to eat dinner in the blue room if I return, saving the front room for lunch, happy hour, or coffee. I love duck dishes and carrots and neither left me feeling like I would come back for them. The duck lacked richness of flavor despite the accouterments and the carrots were too soft. Don't get me wrong, they were both decent but not memorable. The best food we had was the apple mille-feuille for dessert. I'd never had mille-feuille before, so it was fun to try! Crispy and tasty! The drink menu is extensive, as you'd expect from a place associated with a winery, so I would like to explore more of that! If you want to check this place out, I'd recommend coming for happy hour drinks before committing to a full dinner. I'd be willing to come back but would wait a while until they find their groove on the food menu.

Mill Feuille with caramel
Edward S.

We had been to the DeLille Winery in Woodinville and were excited when this opened in U Village. This is not exactly like the Woodinville one, but maintains the high standards and absolutely worth a visit. The interior is very nice and new. I love their wines and usually have the D2. They have a wine here that was unique to the restaurant and may be a little better, just outstanding. Service was good, if slow at times (particularly waiting for food). We started with the cheese plate. It was great, with four cheeses that were all delicious and some great crostini. The large plate was good for a group of four. For the main course, I had the steak frites. The steak was cooked perfectly and really wonderful. My wife had the salmon with cabbage of all things--but that was just perfect as well. Everyone loved their meals. Then for dessert we split something that I do not remember name, but had layers of pastry with a cream in the middle and a fantastic caramel sauce. Superb finish to a superb meal. We will definitely be back.

Food also comes out quick once you get seated which helps cut the overall time down. The place overall is great, I try to reserve 5 stars but this is pretty damn close. I think it's worth stopping by at least once and saying Hi. The place itself is very cute with photos of Tito Greg with dozens and dozens of people and decorated with other classic Filipino items.

Just did a visit to Lola for their Seattle Restaurant Week dinner, and at $50 per person, I think…read morethis is one of the better deals out there. The amount of food was insane even our server said it was a lot of food! The first course alone could have been a meal. Pita bread with six different spreads just look at the picture! I expected maybe three or four. They explained everything, and I retained almost none of it. All I know is that everything tasted really good! This also came with a very generous portion of Greek salad. That was just round one. Next came the salmon and chicken kebabs, with generous chunks of protein served sizzling. They poured liquid over them at the table to make them sizzle even more, which was a neat touch. Both were very good, and the caramelized onions were great. The spreads from the first course also made excellent toppers for the salmon and chicken. By the third course, we were already getting full, but out came the leg of lamb. I had pictured us having to tackle something bone-in, so I appreciated that it arrived nicely sliced. Tender, cooked perfectly, and very little fat. It came with generous portions of small, partly mashed potatoes and some really good greens. I'm not entirely sure what the greens were, but we enjoyed them! For the fourth course, we chose a blackberry ginger sorbet that wasn't listed on the menu. I also ordered a Prosecco to enjoy with dinner. We ended up taking home three boxes because there was simply no way we could finish everything. Such an amazing Seattle Restaurant Week deal! Service was fantastic, and the pacing was nice. My friend and I stayed a little afterward to chat, and we never felt rushed, even though the restaurant was very busy. Great ambiance and a really enjoyable evening. I'll definitely be back to try their brunch!

The manager offered us some free wine and apologized for making us wait. We did enjoy the rest of the night with the huge ensemble of meals and drinks Lola had to offer. Our servers were also extremely nice and polite and quite accommodating to our big dinner party. I really liked the ambience of the restaurant: dimly lit, elegant and cozy with an open kitchen towards the back side. Ordered a lot of different items amongst all of us: Mushroom Skewers (was quite tasty) Saganaki (not a big fan of this.. I didn't like the sweet and cheese together) grilled octopus (I am not a big fan of octopus, but tried what my colleague ordered, and I quite liked it) Doughnuts with mascarpone and Jam (star of the night) Coconut cream pie (also amazing) There was another dessert, I don't recall the name of it but it was peach with chocolate mascarpone (didn't like this one as much as the other two) Overall, had a great time at Lola despite the wait time hiccup, the service, food, ambience were top-notch!

I enjoyed the hot coffee with a bit of cream. It was good; my only comment is that I wasn't offered a refill at any point, and we were there for over an hour. To be fair, it was SUPER busy; like at least 100 people in the dining room. I had one of their seasonal specials, the peaches and cream Swedish pancakes. It was a generous portion included with a trip to the berry bar. The berry bar was very fresh and well maintained as far as cleanliness. It was also in a prime location, near the tables but not too close and not in the way of the walking path. The peaches were juicy and sweet and the cream cheese frosting was a decadent topping. I added some berries which made it extra special. I liked the caramel shards, but they were a little on the thick side for my liking and were a bit tough to eat. However, I really enjoyed the dish overall! I also got a side of peppered bacon which was well-cooked, crispy, and extra peppery. My friend got the classic French toast and a side of potatoes.

I'm not a scallop expert but this one missed the mark - the flavors were off with the sauce (tasted earthy). Presentation and color looked good, but this didn't taste good. Also came here breakfast several times. I don't have pictures, but each time the breakfast was amazing!
