Very chic and elegant place in University Village! We came here on a weekday for Seattle Restaurant…read moreweek - 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!

I went for an early dinner with a friend and we had a lovely experience…read more 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!

Highly recommend stopping by if you're in the area! The aloha and service are the best part of it all. :)

They have a variety of ready made and prepped meals, from sandwiches, to their "Sofa Dinners", to food that just needs to be heated up in the microwave, such as their butter chicken and rice, to their brined pork chops and bavett steak. They also have some beverages, like cold brews, beers and cider, they carry wine, of course. You can find cute cards for different occasions, and things that make great gifts. I can't stop buying their artichoke and goat cheese dip along with their crostini for dipping. I highly recommend coming in just to browse, but pretty sure you'll leave with something!

We tried them plain, and with blinis and creme fraiche. We liked them both ways. Liked it all so much, we got a second glass of champagne and an ounce of osetra so we could extend our time and little adventure. Ended up bringing home a couple ounces of the salmon caviar to have with cream cheese and bagels over the weekend. You gotta live little, right? Only wish they had some lower salt potato chips to enjoy with that tasting :-)

Three generations of the DeLaurenti family oversaw it until 2001 when three local Seattleites took over the reins for the past 25 years to date, Pat McCarthy, Matt Snyder, and Nate Plutko. I'm a Washingtonian since 1973 and have enjoyed seeing this at the corner of 1st and Pike. Numerous visits, but my most recent detour was on 2/16/26. I love gawking at the various sundries and specialty items available especially the chocolates, spices, sauces, olive oils, pasta, ad naseum. Just wander along each aisle, you'll understand and be inspired. Also, what an expansive meat and cheese case with knowledgeable staff for your charcuterie needs! Upstairs you can find a decent selection of wine and spirits and an apertivo spot to have a glass and a bite. I was full from my pasta bowl at nearby Pasta Casalinga, but was eyeing the charcuterie cone. Imagine tasty nibbles to snack on while wandering the rest of the market. Back on the main floor towards 1st Avenue, there's a busy espresso bar and where one can get an Italian panini or pizza slices to go. Highly recommended while at Pike Place Market. Buon Appetito!

Just hot enough to keep you warm but not too hot that you couldn't enjoy. Great flavoring and service! It wasn't until I walked my 4th circle around Pikes Place area that I realized they had a whole deli and grocery store behind it and a wine bar upstairs! Wish I tried some of their food but was a great experience!

Eastlake does not have a large supermarket. Instead, there are a number of small mini marts if you…read moreare looking for groceries in the neighborhood. The biggest store is Pete's, which is located next to Lake Union. It is a few blocks west of Eastlake Avenue. Just walk down to the end of East Lynn Street and you will find it. The selection at Pete's is that of a grocery store. Though I wouldn't consider it a supermarket since they don't have fresh meat items though they do have produce. Prices are on the higher side, but I would consider the product selection to be somewhat upscale. Not just mainstream brands. You can find some specialty items sprinkled around the store. The store has a good wine section, with one aisle devoted to it. There is also a deli in the back. They have a selection of prepared deli sandwiches available on weekdays. The quality is decent, but they are a bit pricey. Each portion is the size of a half sandwich. Quality wise, I do prefer the sandwiches at the newly opened Otherside Market nearby, which are made to order. But a sandwich here would do in a pinch if I am looking for a quick bite. Overall, I think this store is alright. It has a better selection than the mini marts in the neighborhood. But you will find cheaper groceries by shopping at a large grocery like QFC or Safeway instead. It does in a pinch though if you need a random item and live in the area.

It is a neighborhood in which a burger costs $20. Your best bet for finding an inexpensive meal is grabbing some hot food from one of the mini marts.
