Le Pichet

Found the perfect wine bar for date night or catching up with friends! My friend and I made a reservation for Friday night at 8pm. We wanted somewhere to grab a couple glasses of wine and chat and this was the perfect place! Service was great; our server was very attentive and gave us great recs! There are street parking available and some paid lots nearby and super close to pike place market. We ordered a charcuterie plate (petite $13) and asked for chef's selection because we couldn't choose! Prices are really reasonable here; we started with a glass ($9) of l'Ameillaud Côtes du Rhône 2018 each and we regretted not ordering the whole bottle. It paired so well with the chef's selection of meats and the complimentary baguette (comes with mustard and butter). I can't wait to come back and try their food next time.

I went there for lunch during the week. I found a street parking easily for $4 an hour. It was not busy with several customers in the restaurant. It was my first time there, not sure what to get, so I ordered what they recommended, a plate with chicken liver, sausage with pistachio, and pork pate. It was not bad, not amazing. The baguette was good. The service was the same, not bad not outstanding. Maybe $14 for a lunch in that area is a good deal. Maybe I'm not French and didn't know how to appreciate it. I'm the restaurant is above average, but not great.

Cute little French restaurant near Pike Place! We got seated at the bar on a Saturday night and ordered the poisson du jour (fish of the day). It was beautifully seasoned and so delicious, and the baguette and butter were tasty as well. I love how they gave us homemade caramels with our check, what a nice touch. I'll definitely be coming back!

Saw Le Pichet on one of the lists for best restaurants in Seattle. We called in the late afternoon to try and make a reservation, and were able to make one at 8:30pm (they close at 9pm). The interior resembled that of a pretty typical restaurant / cafe that you would find in Paris. The space was small & had an intimate atmosphere. Apparently their steak & frites is very popular, so out of curiosity I asked the waiter if there's anything they did differently that made their steak & frites special, but he just said that you can't go wrong with steak & frites. On the blackboard you can find a list of cheese selection they had at the time. Unfortunately they were out of the in-house artisan charcuterie selection for the day.We got 6 slices of baguette with butter for free, but the baguette came out cold & hard. Additional bread was available for $4. The fish of the day was a salmon. We ordered gnocchi and roasted duck breast. The roasted duck breast was cooked to medium rare & came with skin. By itself, it was a little bland, but it went well with the olives & fennel, which were very salty. The meat was a little too chewy & I struggled with cutting it. Overall, I think it was a solid French restaurant but nothing mindblowing.

I just had an incredible dinner at Le Pichet for my one-year anniversary with my boyfriend, and I couldn't wait to write a review. Le Pichet, a French restaurant, offers an authentic and delicious experience. The interior design and food transports you to Paris. We both ordered the steak frites, and it was outstanding. The steak was perfectly tender, cooked to a flawless medium rare, and the peppercorn complemented it perfectly. The red wine sauce added a delightful juiciness, making any dipping sauce unnecessary. The pomme frites were crispy, well-seasoned, and not too oily. The service and ambiance were exceptional. I highly recommend Le Pichet for a delightful steak frites experience, perfect for a romantic date night.

Can't believe it. So this small French restaurant took the cake in my last visit. Totally exceeded my expectation. A goal hidden gem in Seattle :)

C'est délicieux! Le Pichet is a great little French restaurant right in downtown Seattle. It offers an inviting ambiance, with lots of art, wine, & vintage ads on the walls. It's fairly small, so reservations for dinner are a good idea. I've been a couple times now - most recently had the duck sausage special with mashed potatoes, onions, mushrooms, & chicken liver wine sauce. It was a great blend of flavors - like a gourmet comfort food. A few others had the steak frites (bavette grillée), which looked phenomenal. The service was friendly and the bartender makes a tasty Sazerac as well. Only minor gripe is that seating is tight in the bar area - you'll have to squeeze past your neighbors to get in or out.

Just moved up the street. First place to have a quick brunch was successful. Great service, French feel, close to pike place. Will come here again

We absolutely loved it here! Fantastic service and everything was delicious. Cozy and relaxed atmosphere. We ordered the escargot special, a charcuterie plate, frisee salad, and duck confit. The duck leg was huge and crispy, served over very tasty whipped potatoes. My favorite though was probably the chocolate mousse dessert special! A memorable meal on our vacation.

First of all, the waitress and service staff were amazing and attentive. No issues there. I'm also sure the food and wine are great but that's not what this review is about. I have a problem with this place putting restrictive rules and just not being a welcoming place. We walked in and were barely greeted. It must have been at least 5 minutes before the host asked to seat us. This was mid day and there was hardly anyone there. Secondly, the manager or owner made us throw out our expensive ginger beer that we had purchased down the street. We explained that we completely understand the no outside food or drink policy and we would leave it aside and not consume on property. She insisted that we throw it out anyway. We really should have just left at this point since we were looking for a chill environment to hang out and sip wine after a long day of walking. This place is far from chill and relaxing. Had one glass of wine and immediately left. Went down the street to Jarrbar instead had a bottle of wine and amazing cocktails. 1000% better vibes and environment.
