    Everything about our dinner was very good, solidly good French fare. Duck confit was crispy, paté was flavorful, the onion soup contained enough cheese to make a meal, and the wine pour was generous. My wife and I will definitely return when we're in Seattle again. Several of the people around us appeared to be locals: after-work conversations. Indeed, Cafe Campagne has the feel of being a good neighborhood Parisian bistro. Nothing exceptional, except it's the kind of place where people settle in for a cozy, friendly evening. We took our time eating, but even then noticed groups who were there when we arrived and were still chatting and sipping when we left. The fact that it's unpretentiously French, but welcoming and very good value, makes it exceptional enough to return to.

    Outstanding dining experience in Downtown Seattle. The menu has something for everyone and the food is excellent. The tuna tartare appetizer was delicious and both the steak frites and salmon dish were equally tasty. Good wine and drink selection and the service was fantastic. Plus there are a lot of parking garages nearby. Highly recommended.

    Visiting from out of town and was pleasantly impressed with unique and quant hotel lobby style restaurant. We ordered a few small plates to share. I loved the pimento cheese with the hush puppies. It was slightly spicy and cut the sweetness of the crunchy fried hush puppies. I had the lamb special and it nicely cooked and seasoned and a perfect portion. Focaccia bread was good too. My sister had the kombucha on tap and it was great (I had a sip). Server was also very nice and attentive. Great meal for six of us and coming from the NY area, prices were reasonable.
