    I've been to this restaurant multiple times for both brunch and dinner, and I absolutely love their food, it has never disappointed me. They also have some great vegetarian options. Last time, I tried their pasta, which tasted really good, and I also love their starter breads. Ambiance is also very classy, perfect for date nights.

    My favorite place I ate while visiting Seattle. The menu is HUGE. They have so many different drink and food options. I went for brunch and really enjoyed my experience. Service was quick and super friendly. The space is really cool as well- definitely felt like New Orleans!

    Wagyu steak served with BOXED mash potatoes - steak was under-seasoned & serving box mash should be a crime for a $50 entree

    Sigh...I'll preface this by saying I'm from Atlanta and was visiting Seattle for my birthday. I chose this place for my birthday dinner bc I liked that they had an extensive menu, cute decor and good reviews. We came about 30 mins early for reservation and the host was able to accommodate our early arrival. The restaurant is nice inside and has a unique vibe. When our waitress arrived, I informed her it was my birthday and overall her energy was just dry throughout our service. Not that I was expecting her to give me a cake but a smile would have went a long way. I ordered one of their margaritas and it was meh, overall I just didn't have a good cocktail anywhere we dined in Seattle. I ordered one of their king salmon dishes that was "creole style" but severely lacked seasoning. My boo ordered the steak, which also lacked salt and was served with boxed mash potatoes, which they should be ashamed for at this price point. I also had 4 oysters as an appetizer and they were so small! I was expecting more from the seafood as it seems to be what Seattle is known for. They oysters were fresh, but $22 for four tiny oysters is offensive. This experience may have gotten another star if the service was better but this is place I'd just skip.

    Few things I love more than a happy hour, Toulouse was delish! The ambiance of the restaurant is absolutely stunning, my only critique is their menu is HUGE, this is also a plus in my eyes but I would encourage looking at their menu before arriving. The prices are fair and the staff is extremely personable and kind.

    Shrimp po boy , Dungeness crab, coconut rice cakes, pan, scallops with thick, cut, smoked bacon and cilantro, corn dressing

    Looking for Cajun Creole , we found it No, I've had the shrimp Poboy. We also tried the Dungeness crab, coconut rice cakes, and I had seared scallops, bacon, and corn. Ever single thing was extremely flavorful ( layers of flavor ) and cooked Perfectly . They also has really good coffee The scallops were bomb diggity

    I've reviewed this restaurant before and I'd love to branch out when I come to an event at nearby Climate Pledge Arena, but I really enjoy the food here! Here's some new photos from my most recent visit.

    Food...5 stars! Service 2 thumbs down! I arrived at the restaurant with an hour to spare before their lunch service ended. I was greeted by my server with a very stern cold expression and she made no suggestions even after I mentioned it was my first visit. Her response, "the kitchen is closing in 45 mins." I was rushed and made to feel like a nuisance by her. This being my initial experience, it left a very distasteful first impression. She tried to clean it up 10 mins afterwards when I placed a to-go order and said "let me order that now as the kitchen is closing." Her response "You have time..." *insert confused face emoji* I won't return. I still do recommend this spot for epic Cajun cuisine just be aware that service may overshadow your overall experience.

    Came here for dinner on a trip during vday weekend and was pleasantly surprised by the whole dining experience. Restaurant is just so vibey, with real candles lit throughout the whole space. Plenty of seating, gorgeous large windows and high ceilings, it really does make me feel like I'm in NOLA. We ordered a couple of dishes: clam dip, fried green tomatoes with crab, lamb leg, and their shrimp grits. Overall, most dishes were very good: the clam dip reminded me of a clam chowder dip, I really enjoyed the fried green tomatoes with crab, and the lamb leg was one of the best cuts of lamb I ever had. As someone who doesn't typically enjoy lamb, this tasted like a perfectly medium rare cut of steak without the gamey flavor. I was a bit disappointed with the shrimp grits dish as this was recommended to me by the server I was told that the crawfish would be fresh, but it was clearly frozen and shriveled. It was also on the spicier side which wasn't aware, so that was the only thing that I couldn't finish. They also gave us beignets on the house which I appreciated, but they were a bit deflated and stale. Service was not bad, but definitely a bit slower that night understandably so due to the crowd. Overall just a couple of misses in the dishes, but know next time to get their meats which is what they excel at. Will still definitely come back again if I am ever in town.

    Came here to celebrate a birthday + anniversary brunch and made sure to note it in our reservation (and even received a follow-up email confirming the occasion). We had dined here years ago and had great food and service, so we were genuinely excited to come back. Unfortunately, the service this time really missed the mark. From the start, the vibes felt off. Our server brought us to the table but didn't know what mimosa flavors were available -- not a huge deal, but it set the tone. After that, we found ourselves consistently waiting while tables seated after us were attended to first. We waited to place our order, waited to order beignets (my husband eventually flagged her down), and later waited so long for the check and to-go boxes that we had to ask another staff member walking by -- who then redirected our server to us. For a birthday + anniversary brunch, that kind of inattentiveness definitely dampened the mood. And while we don't expect fireworks, a simple acknowledgment of the occasion would have gone a long way -- especially since it was clearly noted on the reservation. Now, the food? Delicious. The Shrimp and Grits (served in a small skillet with four large shrimp and scrambled eggs) was absolutely fantastic -- no notes. Rich, flavorful, perfectly cooked. The Spicy Creole Andouille Hash was also very good, but the shrimp and grits stole the show for me. Portions were solid, and the beignets with dipping sauce were a perfect sweet finish. Overall, we left wishing we had chosen a different spot to celebrate such special occasions. I absolutely recommend the food. But is it the only place in town serving this quality? No. And for that reason -- paired with the service experience -- we likely won't be making another reservation.

    Beignets on the menu. The ice cream was to die for. We forgot to take photos before digging in.

    We always head to Toulouse when going to Climate Pledge. It is getting harder to walk in so be sure to make reservations. There were 4 of us on our reservation. We showed up on time during a not so busy time. It was unfortunate as our server didn't seem to be very helpful or welcoming. During the holidays it is a mandatory 20% tip for every table. Not that I would have been stingy with a tip but I didn't feel like it was earned. We spent $400 for 4 people. Ordering drinks, apps, dinner and dessert. The food was great as always but we always go for the beignets. The atmosphere is fun. Somewhat dark with over 250 lit candles. We will go back but it won't be on our immediate list anymore. We just might need to branch out in the area.

    Service Food Ambiance Came for Happy Hour after the Nutcracker. Bartender cordial but was not super friendly the way she was with the couple next to us, giving them sample tastings of alcohol and very chatty with them. Noise level is ok. Able to have a conversation without yelling. We liked the HH menu and ambiance. Staff friendliness was the only issue

    Do they allow you to order from the happy hour menu if you're seated outside of the lounge? I have a group of 6 so I'd like to reserve a booth but we want to come for happy hour!

    There is no lounge.

    Where to park?

    There is a public parking lot on mercer st and 1st ave corner.

    What is a high-top table?

    They have high top tables there. Are you asking about getting reservations for them?

    Are there any vegetarian gluten free options (celiac)?

    The fact that this has not been answered yet by Toulouse, helps I think. There are many better… 

    Is Toulouse kid friendly (2 year old)?

    I would probably say no given the noise level and seating arrangement. Great space though!

    Hello. Is there live entertainment during brunch? Easter brunch in particular?

    I have never seen live entertainment there. There is also no space that I can think of that would be enough for it. It's packed with people and tables.

    Do they have a good selection of gluten-free dishes? Which dishes are considered gluten-free?

    Is there a walk-in bar no rez required?

    Yes

    Can I make a reservation for brunch?

    Yes you can!

    Are reservations required or are walks in okay?

    I've always walked in.

    Do they require vaccine cards upon arriving?

    Yes

    What is your happy hour special?

    Extensive. Look online.

    Do they have a kids menu or can accommodate a "plain pasta" order?

    Yes we have a kids menu

    Is this restaurant open for dining?

    Yes

    What is the dress code? Are men mostly wearing suits at dinner?

    Oh no, suits aren't required. I don't think there's a real dress code, but smart casual is probably the way to go. Enjoy!

    Do they have a TV to watch the Saints game? Who Dat!?

    Yes there are two tv's but there is no sound.

    What if my French isn't what it used to be? Will I still be able to order?

    Yes! French on the outside but definitely powered by red blooded Americanness!

    Are they open on Christmas Eve?

    Yes. But are fully booked. Bar is first come first serve

    Can tourist customers bring their luggage (1 small suitcase) inside the restaurant?

    Shouldn't be a problem.. but your hotel would hold it for you even if you checked out until your flight leaves..

During our trip,…read moreI was craving fresh oysters on the half shell and noticed 'Half Shell' nearby, which had solid reviews. My wife doesn't eat oysters, but she was happy to join me. We took two seats at the bar and were essentially ignored for the first five minutes by the bartender. Eventually, she dropped off two glasses of water without saying a word. Since no menus were offered, I walked over to the hostess stand to get one myself. The bar was full, but most guests already had their food, so it wasn't a matter of the server being overwhelmed. After another five minutes, she finally came over and asked, 'I see you have a menu, do you want to order anything?' I nearly said no we just wanted water, but I took the high road and ordered a dozen oysters. The oysters arrived quickly via another staff member and were genuinely very good--though the accompanying sauce was so bland and neutral that the oysters were better off plain. However, we were never asked if we wanted drinks. I would have loved a beer, but without knowing the options, I decided to stick with water, finish up, and leave. During the entire time I ate, no one checked in on us. When I asked for the check, the bartender's demeanor changed instantly. She was suddenly friendly as she handed over the payment terminal--clearly putting on a nice act right when it was time to leave a tip. We both saw right through it. Would I recommend Half Shell? Yes for the oysters, but a hard no for the service and atmosphere. We won't be returning."

Very cute. Very sophisticated. Very "rich auntie enjoying oysters on a work trip." But who was I kidding? Those oysters were NEVER going to fill me up. So I got back to my hotel, got comfortable, and did what needed to be done: ordered Mama's Crawfish and Seafood House. I went with the fried catfish and shrimp basket, which came with fries, coleslaw, and hushpuppies. Now the catfish and shrimp?! Mama did her BIG ONE. Everything was seasoned perfectly, fried well, and exactly what I needed to close out my Seattle trip. I thoroughly enjoyed both. The sides, however, didn't move me. I love fries BAD, but these weren't amazing enough for me to stuff myself when I had perfectly good catfish and shrimp sitting there. I didn't bother with the coleslaw or hushpuppies either. I know where my priorities lie. Overall, Mama's absolutely satisfied the seafood craving. Next time I'm in Seattle, I'd definitely skip the delivery and go dine in so I can get the full experience. Because apparently oysters and wine are just my pre-dinner now.

The oysters were the main draw for me, and they were totally worth the visit. Old Stove serves them with a savory watermelon sauce in addition to a traditional cocktail sauce--eaten together, it's a flavor explosion that I can't quite describe. We also enjoyed the garlic everything fries, which were delicious! We just had to try a flight to sample the brews. There are some really good beers available here, especially the Belgian blonde, citra pale ale, and the stout. I did not really care for the seasonal sour (grapefruit, I think)--to me, it just tasted like a sour and nothing more, but someone with more interest in sour beers would probably enjoy it just fine. Despite the busy night, our server checked on us regularly and was very personable, stopping to chat with us about the local sports scene. There's plenty to look at, inside and out. If you can snag a seat outside, you'll get to enjoy the waterfront. Inside, the decor is industrial but fun. Not sure if this runs all the time, but when we were there, the tvs were playing vintage beer ads, which was quite fun. They also sell some pretty good t-shirt designs. Overall, Old Stove Brewing is the perfect combo of good location, good food, and good beer. Definitely recommend a visit when in the Pike Place area!

They went out of their way and split it for us. It was so nicely plated. We were impressed by the presentation. The meal was perfect. The fish was perfectly fried to a crisp and the fish was very tender and flaky and didn't taste fishy at all. The fries were crispy like I like them. For such a busy place we had great service.
