    I've heard such nice things about Le Coin over the years. Now through personal experience, I found that the food was good but not mind blowing.... also the portions are half of what they were a couple years ago. There are not many updated photos on yelp, so when I was deciding to eat here I was judging it from photos taken years ago. Well I took some updated photos so people know what they are getting. What threw me was the chicken and waffles I ordered. From old photos you get a whole waffle.... now it's half. Service was not the most friendly. Workers seemed like they hated their job. Also slow considering only a couple tables were occupied.

    Wonderful food and service! Highly recommend the prix fix brunch menu. Perfect serving size with a starter, main and dessert. Relaxed neighborhood vibe that is kid and family friendly. *Note - Le Coin requires a $5 per person deposit when you make a reservation. Remind your server to deduct that amount off your bill.

    We've always wanted to try Le Coin, and happened to be in the area yesterday and were able to walk in at about 8:15pm with no reservation. I loved our little table, and the entire restaurant had such a European vibe. We asked our server a lot of questions about food and drinks, and he steered us in the right direction. We had the tomato peach salad, the octopus, the New York steak, and the beef tenderloin. The steak was divine! I loved how it was accompanied by a bordelaise sauce and herb butter. The fries had crispy sage on top which was SO GOOD. Everything was seasoned well and was balanced. Both my partner and I were very satisfied with our choices. To pair with our delicious bites, I had two fabulous glasses of French red wine, and my partner loved his cocktails. We didn't know about their extensive chartreuse list, so that was a cool surprise! We're already talking about planning a trip back.

    Pros: nice ambience, European vibes, located in a cute neighborhood with parking in the neighborhood streets Cons: food is salty, portion is small, nothing tastes good to me. I tried the grilled lamb shoulder, petite legumes, local mussels during HH, honestly the only decent dish is the petite legumes.

    Happy hour! It's a nice place and staff friendly. We ordered HH menu, wine and beer. Average noise. Food was tasty but TBH, the HH prices seemed a bit high for portions. That said, it is a nice place to visit and we have enjoyed our dining experience.

    I visited Le Coin for brunch on a Saturday with a friend. Staff was nice and friendly. We shared the omelette, waffles, and granola for the table. The dish presentation was wonderful. The food was pretty good but I thought the granola wasn't really worth it since I could recreate it at home easily. Same goes for the omelette, but there are times like this when you don't feel like making them yourself so you get it somewhere else.

    My go-to date night spot. Get the oysters and mussels. Service is fast and friendly, and if they have it, get the adult slushies. They have a particular good happy hour as well. The steaks are also fantastic. I wish for their bread service (which is pretty expensive for what you get) I wish they would at least... warm or heat up the bread a bit.

    Had dinner at Le Coin and I must say this is a great French Bistro type setting in the Fremont District of Seattle. At a quick glance the menu screams local seafood focus. For example they had king salmon and local oysters as options. Just a smart way to support local businesses and offer very fresh options. Also they specialized in Chartreuse liquors. I'm not super familiar but their Strawberry Old Fashioned was a great sweeter take on a classic. The table had a variety of appetizers to start: Bread with cheese upgrade, Oysyters, Octopus and Salmon Tatare. All were delicious. The oysters were definitely fresh and had a few mignonette sauces. My favorite was the octopus. it was grilled and accompanied with a warm vegetable and beans. Nice on a cold night. My main course was the NY Strip with Demi glaze. The glaze went with my Cote Du Rhône wine selection. The steak itself was perfectly cooked and tender, but the glaze was a little sweet. The accompanying mushrooms were yummy as well. The service was friendly and kept a good pace. Multiple folks checked on us and cleared things appropriately. Overall a great place I would make a regular if I lived in Seattle. PS The profiteroles were bomb. Definitely recommend.

    I'm waffling between a 3 and 4 star for my recent visit. The restaurant has not changed in the last few years. Same layout with lots of space. They do take reservations but require a deposit per head. Its not a bad thing to have though as they got busy on a Saturday night. I was there with a party of 6 and a couple of our party where late. I think that may have been the issue. The food was amazing as always. Drinks where well made. The main issue was the server. They where extremely short and brusque. They gave the impression that we where an inconvenience to them and taking to long. That was not the level of service I was used to at Le Coin.

    This place is great! Good service, perfect ambiance of upscale casual, and of course great food! Most recently this has become my favorite spot for a fancy burger and fries, but their desserts and other items are great too.

    Le Coin is a French restaurant that is accommodating to all types of price ranges - from nice deals at happy hour to tasting menu formats. I heard good things about the food here and wasn't in the mood for a spendy meal, so my friend and I went here during happy hour which happens 4-6pm. We made a reservation just in case and showed up early but they still accommodated us since it's not busy. We got the Le Coin frites, half dozen oysters, pork rillettes, and grilled lamb shoulder to share. The frites (fries) is very flavorful with rosemary, so just fries without anything is already a good dish. The bone marrow aioli topped up the flavor though it is a bit muted compared to the flavorful fries. The oysters were pretty good - they're the large ones which I'm not a big fan of but it was fresh and not too strong of a flavor so it was fine. Besides the mignonette, they had another sauce that's like soy sauce based which I liked more. Pork rillettes is more like acquired taste since while they prepared it well, I didn't particularly enjoy it. The dish is fairly balanced with sourdough bread, pickled vegetables, and salad. Grilled lamb shoulder is delicious. It's quite small in comparison to the other dishes, but I would happily order this again. It's served medium rare which is my preferred done-ness for red meats. Service is very good. We got checked up on a few times without feeling too overbearing and the water refills were constant. I had a positive experience overall, and I would happily come back for a more spendy format or even try the rest of the happy hour dishes again!

    Had a wonderful HH and dinner at Le Coin tonight. The food was so good we kept ordering and ordering. Got 3 rounds of oysters, 2 rounds of Brussels sprouts, 2 rounds of mussels, lamb shoulder, pork pete plate, tomahawk steak, sable head fish, truffle pasta and frites! I'd say the oysters were so fresh and the garlic vinaigrette that came with it helped balance the earthiness of the shellfish. My son loved the mussels, he almost didn't want to share. I loved the Brussels sprouts. It was browned and have a lovely red wine glace on them. It was sooooo good! The entire dinner was very nice. This place get filled up very quickly. I think a reservation is a must.

    Tomahawk steak
    Allison A.

    We went to Le Coin for my boyfriends birthday and oh my gosh the food here was exceptional! I've never had food quite like this before, the tomahawk steak in particular was absolutely divine and was lately so beautifully, everything was presented so intentionally it was almost too pretty to eat! The service was also very good, our waitress was very attentive and made sure we were taken care of the whole night! This restaurant is kind of tucked away but once you walk in it's like you're transported somewhere else completely! I didn't know you could even find somewhere like this in seattle honestly, the vibes were immaculate! It's a bit dark and moody but the lights illuminated the food in such a perfect way as if they had little spotlights on them! It was a bit expensive but so worth it for a celebration! Parking was challenging to find but just come a bit early and carpool!

    Is wine corkage allowed in Seattle?

    Yes. Per their website: "Wine Corkage Fee is $35 per 750ml Bottle of Wine. We kindly ask that only 2 bottles are brought per table that is not a current selection on our wine list."… 

    Does this place allow walk-in? I heard through their voicemail that they accept reservations via Tock, but nothing as to their walk-in policy.

    Hello, Le Coin accepts walk-ins when available. We take reservations through Tock. If there is not… 

    Is it okay for kids?

    Kids are always welcome at Le Coin. Le Coin does have a kids menu it's just not printed.. You just need to inquire with your server. Brunch or Dinner!

    Are you still having the tasting menu?

    Thank you for reaching out. Currently Le Coin is not offering the three course tasting menu. We plan to do something in the near future. We will announce it via our email list when it happens. Cheers!

This was the perfect place to unwind and enjoy the views of Elliot Bay, the Seattle Wheel, Washington Ferries, and a blazing red sunset. First off, our waitress Katie was fantastic! She helped with suggestions and gave us the deets on the specials.. We opted for starters of (French) Onion Soup, Saffron Clam Chowder, and shared Green Goddess salad. The Saffron Clam Chowder was a very pleasant surprise with a saffron spiced broth and lots of clams, potatoes and carrots. NOT a New England style chowder... a very pleasant suprise indeed! The Green Goddess salad was perfect with fresh bib lettuce leaves and some small grape tomates. Entrees were the crab cakes and a salmon filet with a fresh house made pineapple salsa... both were so good. Lastly, dessert was Chocolate Pot du Creme and an Affogato. Again delicious and a perfect way to end the evening. We wasted no time in recommending Place Pigalle to friends and family!

The croissant looked stunning-it tasted as good as it looked. Service was amazing. The person who grabbed our pastries and bread was super kind and nice. You can tell that a lot of thought, research, and care went into creating croissants that are as close as possible to what you might find in France. The almond croissant was also incredible. Since it was double-baked, it had an amazing crunch with every bite, and the ratio of almond filling to croissant was perfect. I would highly recommend any of their croissants and already can't wait to come back for more! The sourdough loaf, however, was fairly mediocre and nothing to write home about. I would return specifically for the pastries.

But this one was so subpar that I could not even finish it. It was, frankly, a complete waste of butter, flour, sugar and labor. I once lodged a complaint with a GM and Director of F&B at a certain Ritz-Carlton because their kouign-amanns were so bad that I asked them to stop whoever was making them. Since then, there has been a huge improvement, and that is what genuine feedback should accomplish. Pastry integrity is of utmost importance, and pastry crime is hardly forgivable. Pain au Chocolat - 2/5 Doughy and deeply disappointing. I simply cannot reconcile this with the fact that Le Panier has supposedly been a beloved fixture of Seattle's food scene since 1983. MERINGUE -- 5/5 Can anyone possibly mess up a meringue?? It is extremely disappointing to visit what is supposed to be a legendary, quintessential French bakery in Seattle, only to find that the two pastries I was most looking forward to, the kouign-amann and pain au chocolat, were both such letdowns. A café/bakery cannot survive on service and ambiance alone. The pastries have to deliver too. Time to rehone the baking skills, Le Panier.

For dessert, we collectively got to try the creme brulee, the chocolate cheesecake, and the ice cream. I had the Coquilles St. Jacques, the seared scallops, as my entree. The scallops were just the right amount of seared and while there were only four scallops, there were plenty of green beans and mushrooms to fill me up.
