Feedback
Maximilien offers a quintessential Seattle dining experience, blending classic French cuisine with stunning Elliott Bay views. Guests consistently praise its elegant ambiance, attentive service, and beautifully presented, authentic dishes like escargot and black cod. The bread and appetizers receive high acclaim, making for a delightful start. However, desserts have drawn mixed reactions, with some finding them dry or poorly executed. Concerns about pricing transparency and occasional lapses in service or food quality have been noted. Despite this, many visitors cherish Maximilien for special occasions, appreciating its romantic atmosphere and memorable waterfront setting.
We were impressed right from the start the bread and butter alone were enough to get a 5 star review out of me! The service was superb and the food was outstanding, authentic, beautifully presented and unforgettable. I also appreciated being able to enjoy conversation with the others in my party without competing with loud music or too many other loud voices. It was an overall excellent dining experience.
Great place I would recommend. Kinda pricy but worth it for dates
Our wife and I came into Downtown Seattle for a birthday lunch at Maximilien's. We have eaten here several times before and have always had an excellent meal. I had the Pike Place Market salad which was a delicious mix of greens, fingerling potatoes, green beans, red peppers, kalamata olives, hard boiled egg, and anchovies ! . I ordered the smoked salmon extra. It was delicious. We had a glass of French wine to celebrate. The service was very attentive and professional. The view of Puget Sound is sweeping and is enjoyable even on a cloudy rainy Seattle day.
Besides the harrowing journey through slums to find the restaurant, the food is very good. The star of the Duck was the lentils, but the steak was incredible.

I decided to take my girlfriend on an evening date at Maximilien Restaurant Le Igloo. To say we had a blast is an understatement, the food was excellent, the service was fantastic, and the Igloo itself was simply jaw-dropping. There truly is nothing better than hearing the raindrops on your igloo while eating steak with a glass of red.
