So I was staying at the hotel for a night after a cruise to Alaska, which was phenomenal in and of itself. We ended up going to The George for dinner as well as brunch the next morning. We stopped in to the speakeasy as well while we were there. So for dinner I had the George Burger. I would give it a four out of five. It was nice and soft, and it had a really good flavor to it. They do cut it in half and put it on the plate with a sauce. I told them I didn't want the sauce; that's not my thing. They ended up giving it to me on the side, and I tasted it. It was a little too salty for me, but the big deal with the burger, honestly, the best part of it was the fries. The fries get a 5 out of 5. These are called the house smoky fries, and they truly had a strong, deep smoky flavor. I ate the entire bowl, definitely the best part of my meal. My wife had the warm Dungeness crab dip, which she thoroughly enjoyed. She said that it was a five out of five. She's not big on cheese, but the flavor was good, and it really paired well with the dish. The staff was really nice. My wife's birthday was the week before, and so they brought her out a really nice chocolate cake with a chocolate cover like a dome and a nice big sparkler. I did a video of it. I didn't take pictures of it. It was really good. So the next morning, I did get the Olympic breakfast. I looked at the French toast, but it really didn't speak to me at the price point. I went with the Olympic breakfast, which was definitely filling, with good flavor on the eggs, and great texture with the cheddar cheese. The pork sausage had a good flavor, and the potatoes were nice and filling. I really enjoyed the sourdough toast. There is a $2 up charge with the cheese, even though it says you get the eggs however you want them. You get the eggs; however, you're willing to pay for them. The key reason for us coming there was that we stayed at the hotel, and a part of the package that we actually received upon booking the room was some credits at the restaurant, so we went. They do provide really good service, and the food was pretty good. Overall, the drink that my wife got was actually in the Founders Club, which is not inside The George but is inside the hotel itself. She was amazed at those. They are pretty pricey, but she said that they were delicious. read more

We ordered the Dungeness crab omelet and Stumptown coffee at The George in the Fairmont Olympic, and both were very good. The omelet was rich and flavorful, and it definitely felt like a Pacific Northwest breakfast done right. The only downside was the wait, since service took a while. The dining room is beautiful, but the pace was slower than we expected for breakfast. Overall, the food was worth it, but I'd set aside extra time if you go for brunch or breakfast here. read more

The George - Menu - New American Near Me - Seattle, Washington

I am so sad to write this review as this restaurant was once one of my favorites, but unfortunately my most recent visit yesterday evening has now colored those visits and I unfortunately won't be returning. My parents were in town visiting and we experienced, by far, the worst service we have ever had. He was not only dismissive, but also inattentive as well. He even laughed at my dad's questions about the menu in a derisive & condescending manner. Not only was this the worst service I've ever experienced from The George itself, but in general as a restaurant connoisseur. The food as well was a miss. For some reason, the same pasta I ordered two weeks prior was now dry and bland. The several 1-2 star reviews speaking on the poor service and food now make sense. Consistency is everything, especially for a restaurant seemingly at a higher level. We were uncomfortable throughout the entire experience due to this server. Overall, this was a really disappointing experience, especially for what was meant to be a special outing with my parents. I would think twice before choosing this restaurant. Also just as an aside, despite having a reservation and seeing that there were empty tables in the interior of the restaurant (which is typically where I've been seated and is the most beautiful part of the restaurant), we were for some reason seated on the outskirts of the restaurant next to the hostess. A little unusual and different when compared to my previous visits.. All in all, we did not have a great time at all. read more

The George - New American Near Me - Seattle, Washington

Dinner at The George was, without question, one of the highlights of our entire stay. From the moment we were seated, everything felt intentional - service, pacing, atmosphere, all working together seamlessly. The space itself is beautiful, but what truly elevates the experience is the level of service. Our server, Janice, was exceptional. She struck that perfect balance of being attentive without ever being intrusive. She anticipated needs before we even had to ask, guided us through the menu with confidence, and made recommendations that were absolutely spot-on. It's rare to find service that feels both highly professional and genuinely personable at the same time, but Janice delivered exactly that. She made the evening feel effortless and memorable in a way that really stands out. The food itself was outstanding, and the pacing of the meal was perfectly aligned with our evening plans, which made the experience even more enjoyable. We'll absolutely be returning, and will specifically be hoping to have Janice as our server again. She made that much of an impression. This is how dining experiences should feel. read more

My friend and I had brunch at the George after we spent the night at the Fairmont. The dining room is gorgeous! We had great service but food was a bit slow even though they didn't seem too busy. It wasn't a problem for us though. Our waiter was attentive. My friend was thrilled to see gluten free French toast on the menu. She and I both got it (I got regular) and it was really good!! read more

The George is inside the Fairmont Hotel and this is the place where I enjoyed my breakfast daily. Overall some days during the time that I was here I would have to wait and give them my phone number so they could give us a call. Other days it was fine and I was able to just walk in. The interior of this place looks really pretty. It has large windows letting the sunlight in. The coffee was average. Nothing super spectacular on the menu. Simple and quite boring but it was doable! The lox is fine, the bagel could be better but I'm not in New York so maybe this is fine? Feel like they need a better breakfast menu as options. The Dungeness crab toast was small and lacking. But it was still a decent breakfast, sitting inside the area was nice, and it had a good flow to it. read more

I have wanted to dine at The George since they reopened with a new look and a new name. I was in the area with friends, we were hungry, it was a spur of the moment decision. We arrived shortly after opening when no one else was there. Where The George deserves five stars is the service. Everyone was just the best. They had a lovely service-first attitude that was warm and welcoming. Typically I'd up the review rating for that had the food and value been better. Because you do not get what you pay for. I love sourdough bread and found their sourdough loaf to be dry and tasted more like a rye bread. One of my friends is a baker and couldn't bring herself to eat more than a couple bites. I love black cod and it was not great. The fish was overcooked, dry, and the skin shattered like glass completely flavorless. The beans were fine with the chorizo bites being the best part. I was hoping my friends at least enjoyed their meals but neither did. My one friend wasn't anticipating her burger to be submerged in the au jus which put her off while the other also found her food to be a bit too al dente and a bit bland. They ordered the apple éclair for dessert which they said was fine but not nearly as delicious as the description made it out to be and found it odd it was very cold. Not sure if that is normal or not. I will try The George again, but likely will aim around Restaurant Week to avoid too much of a financial commitment. read more

Had a really solid anniversary dinner here recently - Service was great, we didn't have someone hovering too much as one other review noted. Food and drinks were good: Oysters were great, scallops and black cod were both solid dishes. Cocktails were solid, good selection of wines by the glass (I'm a sucker for a good Sancerre), and I'm happy to see a good selection of NA cocktails - a welcome growing trend in Seattle restaurants. Service seemed to slow down at the end - then I realize the waiter was stalling while a complimentary anniversary desert was being prepared for us. Very nice touch. For the online menu, you need to accept cookies/etc to be able to see the menu. I'm tempted to remove a star just for this. Safari on current iPadOS; QA your site, folks. The room is beautiful - There's a bar at the end...as someone who loves a good hotel bar, if I was just looking for a drink, I'd be very tempted to come in here and skip the main bar outside. Great place to impress a date! As chef has said in at least one interview, he's trying to provide a "casual" experience for someone who just wants a burger, or someone out to celebrate with a bang. While not cheap (c'mon - this is in The Fairmont), I think he's hitting those targets pretty well. Plenty of things on the menu I want to go back and try next time! Timing - the place was quiet when we arrived for a 6:30ish reservation. But by the time we left around 8, the energy had picked up nicely. So maybe aim for a 7-7:30 reservation, if able. read more

Ambiance: 10/10 Food: 6/10 Service: 8/10 Stopped by for a lovely dinner at the George. The ambiance (high ceilings, renaissance feel) steals the show, as this is the main reason people visit. However, the food (while good) was very underwhelming, especially for the price. Portions were pretty small, and it was just okay. The best deal was the tiramisu which was an entire tiramisu cake that could feed a village! Unfortunately, as someone who's gluten sensitive, the tiramisu made me feel incredibly sick afterwards (typically not that strong of a reaction), so I'd warn my gluten sensitive folks not to take the risk on this. read more

This restaurant came up a few times in my search. So on our last night in Seattle we decided to try it. Such a pretty location. Our server was very attentive and made suggestions for us. Our Oysters were fresh and tasty. Our drinks well made and our server even made us a version of a green tea shot. Our meat was well cooked and flavorful. Overall an excellent experience here. The only draw back, bring a sweater it was a bit chilly. It was a great way to say goodbye to Seattle. read more

I tried the George for dinner a couple of weeks ago on a Friday night. It was not busy and a reservation was unnecessary. The George location is striking indeed due to the very high ceilings and neorenaissance decor. As fine as this establishment comes across at first blush, I noticed an absence of table cloths, which I would have welcomed as a nice touch. I ordered the heirloom tomato salad with added burrata and the $110 Niman Ranch ribeye. This was both great, the tomatoes at peak and sourced locally, and the steak of great quality. I would say the tiny piece of ad-on burrata that came with the tomatoes made 'little' sense to me and I must question who believes it does. Service was fine although I kept getting unsolicited and annoying comments from a random, older waiter with white hair passing my table. I noticed quite a bit of noise in this restaurant and the enormously high ceiling and lack of table cloths made this feel more sterile as opposed to cosy. I ventured over to the speakeasy after dinner, where I was initially turned away (you need to be on a wait list and it could take forever) until I pointed to plenty of available seating at the bar saying I could sit there. A bit of a charade I would say. Matching cocktail prices; goes without saying. All in all, stunning location and good food, needs to be tried at least once in a lifetime. read more

We came hear right after my courthouse wedding and surprisingly, there were other couples that also got married at the courthouse there! Great restaurant for a celebratory dinner! It's simply a beautiful restaurant, people are dressed nice without feeling stuffy. Reservations are encouraged but there's plenty of seating and you can always get a drink at their bar in the lobby while you wait. The food, the octopus was delicious. Nice and tender, not overly chewy. The sourdough felt more like wheat bread than sourdough. The steak and frites was cooked well, but there wasn't a herb butter with the steak. The duck breast was cooked well too and the peach salad added a nice fresh note. The tiramisu though, the star of the show! It comes in a tin they can easily pop a top on it and you can take it to go! read more

We came to enjoy breakfast at this establishment. It is located inside the Fairmont Olympic Hotel. You walked through the lobby and the restaurant is very bright and grand. They are only open during breakfast times. The breakfast menu has many selections that you may want. Especially in a very nice environment. We ordered Sweet Potato Hash and Cappuccino French Toast. Enough to share amongst each others. Service was very attention oriented. They made sure we had enough coffee and came to check on us multiple times The dishes came out and it was a great presentation. The sweet potato hash is delicious. The sweet potato was not overcooked and still had a good bite in it. The Beyond meat was cooked to right temperature. It was still meaty and flavorful. We especially enjoyed the tomato agrodolce. So much fresh flavors and ingredients in this dish. The Cappucino French toast was a delight. Very light and flavorful for the French toast. It came with maple syrup and it's a delight eating it. Not overly sweet and pure deliciousness The service is very attention oriented. We were taken care of throughout the whole breakfast. The restaurant has an abundant of lights through the ceiling. Lots of plush chairs to sit and relax and eat your breakfast. We really enjoy this experience at The George before heading home. read more

As a crab dip aficionado, I was genuinely impressed. Their crab dip actually came with a full crab leg in it, which almost never happens. Easily a 10 out of 10, honestly closer to a 20 out of 20 experience. The ambiance is phenomenal and sexy without trying too hard. I went on a slower day, so the staff was attentive and quick, which made the whole experience even better. Solid bottle selection too, and even going with a full bottle didn't feel crazy expensive. Definitely will be back. read more

3.5 Stars Went here for a December 2025 date night/Christmas gift to the girlfriend and me. We decided to get a room at the Olympic Fairmont in Seattle for the night and get a reservation at the George, which is the restaurant in the hotel. We even got to bring the puppy for the overnight stay, so it was a fully family affair. Before you read more, just know I am going to be annoyingly nit picking on certain aspects of the meal overall. At places like the George, you should be really striving for an exceptional dining experience if not a perfect dining experience, so I feel it is fair to mention some of the little things, good and bad. The restaurant is gorgeous - high ceilings make the place feel huge, and the interior gives an old timey vibe but feels very 21st century, if that makes sense. I love how this place looks, from the flooring to the rustic chandeliers, no notes! We each ordered their dirty gin martinis (get the blue cheese olives, yum) for drinks and started with their bread offering, crab Gem salad, and the smoked beef tartare. The crab salad was very okay, and nothing to write home about sadly. I guess i wish the dressing stood out more, or had something with more of a bite to balance the sweet Dungeness crab. The smoked beef tartare is clearly their show stopper, and was very fun addition. The smoke was more visual than flavorful sadly, and the beef tartare itself was very traditional. Again, nothing to sing a song about sadly. I don't know why this dish is often served with thin bread slices that are so crunchy it tears up the inside of your mouth - i get the need for the crunch aspect to go with the soft beef, but not ideal. I love when restaurants use a parmesan crisp or something similar for the vehicle on this dish. For mains, the girlfriend went with their polenta beef short-rib dish, which is one of my favorite meals ever. If she didn't order this, i was going to. The polenta was perfect and the demi style sauce included was awesome. The short-rib piece she received was much fattier than typical, but maybe that was just poor luck on her end. I went with the butternut squash agnolotti. Agnolotti is my absolute favorite stuffed pasta dish, and they kept things again very traditional. Browned butter sauce and sautéed mushroom medley finished the dish. This dish was served on a very dark colored plate, which i know is such a nit pick, but the plating option did not set this dish up well at all. Couldn't see the caramel-colored browned butter sauce, didnt love how they arranged the pasta pieces, and the dark mushrooms on the dark plate, ugh the plate should have been white. To add to this experience, our main dishes came out before any of the starters - so we ate in almost reverse order, it was odd. The reverse order earned us a free dessert, which was their Apple Enclair finished with a tableside Calvados Flambé - continuing with the odd theme of the night, the alcohol wasn't all burnt out during the flambé so each bite was very boozy. All in all, a very medium experience here. read more

I recently dined at The George inside the Fairmont Olympic, and it's a must-visit for anyone who loves a mix of great service and Seattle history. The dining room is absolutely gorgeous, though it is very echoey. If you're looking for a quiet, intimate corner, just be aware that the sound tends to carry quite a bit due to room design. Service was professional, friendly, and perfectly paced. The food was consistently good across the board--our favorites were the smoked beef tartare and the panna cotta. The highlight for me was actually the trip to the restrooms on the mezzanine level, it's like a mini-museum. They have incredible memorabilia on display including original newspapers from the 1925 grand opening, a vintage telegraph confirming room rates for a Puget Sound view, and retro matchbooks and a swizzle stick from the hotel's 1960s restaurant era. Overall, a fun spot for a celebratory meal or a fancy night out. read more

Our server was genuinely the highlight of the evening attentive, warm, and engaging. He made thoughtful drink recommendations that were excellent and shared personal conversation that added a human touch to the experience. Truly top-tier service. Unfortunately, the food did not match that level of care. When the dishes arrived, it was immediately apparent they had been pre-plated and reheated. The proteins were dry, lacked seasoning, and overall felt tired rather than freshly prepared. What should have been comforting or elevated flavors landed flat and were difficult to enjoy. Dessert followed the same pattern underwhelming and forgettable, with no standout flavor or texture to redeem the meal. It's disappointing because the service shows the restaurant can deliver excellence, but the kitchen execution fell far short. I hope this is something management takes seriously, because strong service deserves equally strong food. read more

We had dinner at The George during our Christmas-time staycation at the Fairmont Olympic Hotel. The interiors are beautiful and the ambiance is great for a date night. We ordered Oysters, the Bone Marrow, and the Gold-Encrusted Bone-in Ribeye with a side of Pommes Aligot. The food was prepared well and tasted good. For the price we paid, I wish they had something more novel, something that adds character and elevates the dishes a bit more. The service was great. Overall rating: 3.5/5 read more

Cute aesthetic!! Went there for a date night, was dissapointed with food selections and the flavor. Everything was just too bland...and not seasoned. And the fries were soggy, and the steak was too dry. Asked for a well done in the burger and got medium rare. The steak was too hard even though it was a medium rare. Also the steak was the most dissapointing part of the meal considering this is what we went in there for. The mocktail was ok! Too sour even though they said it was fruity... and the server was ...rude and when we tipped 10% he got very rude. read more

This is an overdue review for dinner during the holidays. Overall, I think the ambiance is great. However, the food was a hit or miss and maybe a 3-3.5 because of the price. With that said, if you're looking for a fancier setting, I do think this is a nice option. Ambiance / Service: restaurant is really pretty & feels chic - brightly lit, tall ceilings. This is a good option for a date night or celebration. You can definitely dress up for dinner. The hotel also has a good bar in the lobby with lots of seating to grab a drink before or after dinner (it's also decorated nicely for the holidays!) Service was ok, a bit slow. But we didn't feel rushed which was nice and was able to just sit and have a 3+ hour dinner. Food: this was a hit or miss because the apps & dessert were good, but the entree was a disappointment. -Caramelized Onion Soup: exactly what I wanted. Perfect onion soup. Flavorful, salty, and cheesy. -Smoked Salmon Devil Eggs: comes with 4 halves. Doesn't actually come with smoked salmon, like I incorrectly thought, hah. Delicious. -Steak Frites: I will say, the steak was cooked well. But this was underwhelming. Steak had zero flavor. I had to put a lot of salt and pepper on it. The fries also were lacking in flavor somehow. -Tiramisu for Two: this is more like a dessert for 4 people - it's huge! Comes in an actual cake pan. This was good. read more

The brandy wasn't burned off enough so it was strong. They gave us a chocolate cake with a sparkly candle for the bday gal which was a nice touch. Overall a nice experience, but I don't think I would necessarily return for the food. The drinks are good though! read more

The George - Family time. - New American Near Me - Seattle, Washington

Let's start off with the good - the waiter was very polite and helpful. They gave us table hooks for our purses, took dirty plates quickly and replaced with new ones. So the service was nice and the ambience is beautiful. My friend and I split the Lamb meal and they cheated us with 1 lamb per person when the meal comes with 3 lamb originally . They charged an additional $5 for splitting our meal which was an eye roll considering they gave us less food than the meal required. The lamb was supposed to be medium cooked and was as rare as rare could be. Super difficult to chew. We purchased non alcoholic drinks and they charged us a hefty alcohol tax anyway. They have a 3% kitchen surcharge $15 And a 20% large party charge which totalled $100 I came in knowing my meal was going to be expensive but the unnecessary extra charges threw me off. Just know to expect an extra generous charge for any minor changes you do when you come here. read more

I love the vibes of this place. It feels airy and luxurious, perfect for a girls day brunch. The brunch menu is prix fixe, either 2 or 3 courses. 2 courses was more than enough for us. I ordered the autumn bisque, the chicken and waffles, and an orange mimosa. The autumn bisque was carrot-y and ginger-y. Very warm and yummy. Would've been extra good with some bread to dip it with. The chicken and waffles was pretty good as well. The batter was nice and crunchy. The chicken itself was super juicy. But there wasn't much flavor to the chicken :c the waffle was good tho! Sweet and delectable. I love the scone cart that they roll around for brunch as well! Not sure if it's unlimited haha but I loved the variety of toppings. The scone itself was a bit on the drier side, but with the fresh whipped cream, jam, and honey butter, it was a perfect vessel. Service was super friendly, but a bit on the slower side. It probably makes sense to allow customers to chill, chat, stay for however long they want, but it was hard to find our server to get the check, get to-go boxes, get a spoon for my soup, etc. Overall, beautiful vibes, pretty good food. read more

Good quality, good quantity, good value. Came to The George on a late reservation. The restaurant seemed to be well recommended by others who've visited Seattle so my girlfriend and I decided to stop by for a try. We ordered the following: Salmon Crudo: Citrussy and buttery. This is a dish we almost always order if it is present on the menu and we weren't disappointed. The salmon was buttery and tender and had a great salmon-y taste without the off-putting fish-y taste. The orange cubes were at times a bit overpowering but in the correct moderated proportions it added a nice bright sweet taste of citrus. There were also cucumber bits which I personally didn't enjoy very much as it added crunch in a way I didn't believe worked with the dish. On the other hand the Calabrian chili crisps added a nice airy crisp to the dish that complemented the weight of the salmon. I wish the dish came with more salmon as I thought the portion was a bit small but otherwise I enjoyed this dish. George Burger À La Flottant: Earthy, beefy, vinegary. The burger was one of the signature items and it came with the fries on the side. I requested the patty to a medium done-ness but it came out a bit closer to medium-rare, which wasn't an issue for me. The patty was meaty and tender and the fat had such an amazing aroma. The buns on the other hand had an airy brittleness that made my bite feel quite dry. The texture was almost foamy which wasn't what I expected from what seemed like a brioche bun which are usually quite moist and soft. The sauce had a nice vinegary sweetness which was resemblance of Worcestershire which I loved and basically used as a dip for everything else we ordered. House Smokey Fries: Dry, fluffy. The fries came alongside the burger and came with a small ramekin of ketchup. They were on the thinner side and the texture was brittle and soft similar to In-n-Out fries and they were seasoned with a dry Cajun rub with emphasis on the dry. There was a solid coat of the seasoning which made my bites feel a bit on the dry end but with some of the steak sauce or ketchup the fries tasted great. Caramelized Onion Soup: Sweet, buttery, salty. The caramelized onion soup was topped with a thick piece of bread and melted and thick browned layer of cheese on top. The bread was nice and firm when we first got the soup but once we broke through that upper layer it mixed and softened into the soup so perfectly. The onions were very soft and caramelized but had enough hold to still give a good bite. The soup was nice and sweet with some saltiness but the salting was subtle enough to enjoy which is what my standard is. Temperance Collins: Sweet, light, punch. My girlfriend and I don't drink alcohol so we chose this out of the 'mocktail' menu. We saw the ingredients included pineapple juice and cinnamon which peaked our curiosity. Upon tasting I was given a pleasant fruity pineapple juice that wasn't overly sweet and an absolutely pleasant surprise of a kick from the cinnamon. I was skeptical but honestly the cinnamon being a part of this fruity drink was one of the best food surprises I've ever had. It is funny to say but this drink is probably my favorite item ordered during this dining experience and I would order a gallon if I could. The ambience of the restaurant is beautiful and sophisticated but not overly serious or extravagant as it is a part of a larger hotel. It is connected to another room which has a speakeasy-like bar environment while the restaurant boasted a semi-formal romantic dining experience. The service at this restaurant was great. Our server was Tad and he was well keyed into our dining experience. He was first to notice that one of our appetizers came out of order and was quick to make amendment to that. He was accommodating and provided great attentive service. He is a big part of why we had such a great experience on our special occasion. He also surprised us with a little Black Forest cherry chocolate dessert with a sparkler which he lit up for us at table-side. read more

First of all, the ambience and environment is undeniably beautiful. Tucked inside a beautiful hotel, The George was such an amazing dining experience. All of the people there were so kind and helpful, and our server, Tad was simply the BEST! He made sure to bring out the salmon and french onion soup first to ensure a smooth dining experience! The salmon crudo was delicious. My boyfriend and I never fail to order this at restaurants as this is our favorite raw fish. I loved how the salmon was placed on top of a light lemon oil, which complemented the fish so well. There was chives, cucumber, a crispy substance that was savory, and a citrus fruit that meshed very well together. Not all bites were the same, however! The french onion soup was pleasantly surprising as I was expecting something heavy and oily. It had a gold crust and a light, warm soup under! It was absolutely delicious and left me wanting more and not feeling heavy. The burger was cut in two so my boyfriend and I could share! It came in a sauce that was slightly too salty for my taste but added depth to the burger's flavor! The patty was slightly dry to my taste but the sauce also allowed me to enjoy it better. The fries were a great addition to the burger and tasted so good dipped in all of the other dishes! The temperance collin's was such a delightful mocktail. I don't usually order drinks at restaurants and was hesitant about the cinnamon-pineapple flavor combo. However, the cinnamon was cleverly "hidden" behind and after the pineapple flavor which was so pleasing to the taste buds!! Our lovely server surprised us with a little black forest chocolate cake for our anniversary, which was an absolutely delicious ending to our dinner! read more

Went to the George for an early dinner on Friday. The George is located in The Fairmont. It's a beautiful hotel and a beautiful restaurant that was recently updated! Wait staff was very friendly and attentive. Drinks were great as well, highly recommend the Sugar Plum. We ordered the deviled eggs and the salmon crudo to start. Deviled eggs were pretty good, I never order that at a restaurant but I like them. Salmon crudo was fresh and light. I personally ate the black cod and really loved it. The sides were a good portion size, we split the two for four people. Everyone at the table enjoyed the restaurant and the ambiance. Beautiful place to celebrate a special occasion! The only complaint is I wish the staff was more knowledgeable about allergens present in their food. read more

For the price we paid, the food was absolutely mediocre at best. The tartare was ok. Tasted like roast beef sandwich without the bread. The salmon was alright something that is simple and can be made at home. At least the ambiance was nice! Service not so much, they may have been short staffed but it took them forever to bring anything read more

This is a lovely Bistro in the gorgeous Fairmont Seattle. The menu offers bistros classics, and is so much to my taste that it was almost impossible to decide what to have for lunch. We loved the pea soup, the sourdough boule, and the lobster salad. There's a nice selection of wines by the glass. Service was pleasant and fast. read more

We went here for Christmas Eve dinner and it was a grand time! Service was top notch, drinks were well mixed, and the food was good. We did have a problem with the entrees being very cold, but that was remedied by our server bringing a new dish. It was still only slightly warm, but better than a cold steak! It would be fun to try this place with their regular menu. read more
