Best French American Restaurants in Lake Union / Eastlake

Tilikum Place Café offers a cozy, European-inspired brunch experience. I had the savory Dutch baby with duck and goat cheese—rich, flavorful, and perfectly balanced. My partner opted for the eggs benedict, which was equally delicious. The warm ambiance, friendly service, and great coffee make this spot a must-visit. Be sure to make a reservation—it’s popular for a reason!

The Dressing Room restaurant is a quaint, French theater themed restaurant. Very eclectic and old world. The food was very good and well prepared and so was the Mimosa and the Pink Chai latte. 

This is a very nice place to eat whether it is for a special occasion for two or a nice lunch. We have been here just three times -- once for lunch and twice for dinner. Each time the food and drinks were absolutely perfect and delicious. I believe the cost is worth the value; not overpriced. I highly recommend this place.

Hands down the best sea scallops we have ever eaten anywhere. Ditto for the cod. Our server was so nice and the atmosphere was lovely -- quiet with a nice view of the marina and bay (although at night it is harder to see the view). The apple martini was a tad sweet but otherwise delicious. We shared the mussels as an appetizer and it was plenty for three, and very delicious. Our sweet teeth were amply satisfied with the creme brûlée and the bread pudding. The meal was pricey -- over $300.00 for three people including a 20% tip. But everything costs a lot more now. It was delicious and pleasant and everyone had a lovely time.
