DeLille En Ville

DeLille En Ville is my new favorite place to visit when we are in U Village! It’s friendly for kids, dates, or catch-up with friends! The wine is amazing and the food is delicious. The interior design is fantastic and the space is sophisticated yet inviting. Highly recommend!

I have been curious to walk in and this week I had a reason. It was lunar new year and I needed to bring a bottle of good wine to a colleague I was happy to Discover that they had Bubbles! They had a rosé for $48 and a blanc de blanc for $45. Thankfully I was able to taste and discover that both were wonderfully crisp and delicious. I went with the rosé but will be back again. I look forward to trying the happy hour that starts at 3 PM with a few girlfriends. I'll come back to review the food. Service provided by Sterling was courteous and excellent. And they had one of the most striking floral arrangements I have seen in a very long time. And given that I was at University Village -- which is known for tasteful interior decor -- it is a high compliment.

Generic restaurant with subpar food. Went for brunch, left with a mouth stinging with salt. The hash wasn’t anything noteworthy, but the crab salad was absolutely awful! The bed of frisée and other micro greens was caked in salt and not edible. We asked for a remake of the greens and got wilted salad covered with salt and nothing else — NOT lemon, olive oil, NOTHING. Just take a look at the photos. (The music was obnoxious and random.) Pass on yet another poorly executed corporate idea.

Finally, a restaurant worth visiting in UVillage! I made reservations for a business dinner here on a weekday night and did not realize how busy it would be. The hostess sat is in the solarium with the most comfortable seats. The overall experience was phenomenal starting with our server, the food and the interior design. We ordered the Duck Liver Pate, Red Wine Poached Pear Salad, Steak Frites and Pasta. All were incredibly amazing and the portions were much larger than we anticipated. The steak Frites were orderes medium rare. The meat was tender, juicy and savory. The fries were generously loaded on the plate and shareable with two other people. Our server did a fantastic job taking care of us, considering the volume of people in the establishment.

I first wanted to commend this restaurant for phenomenal service, they were very accommodating when we learned of some new guests to a family dinner we had here. Along with that I found the menu to have a good mix of Seattle cuisine classics with kales and cabbages with salmon and the use of duck and other sea food spot on, while things such as steak frites easy for classic and less adventurous palletes though executed to perfection. The one thing I would change is how the pate is served, a whipped one is easier to spread and the glass jar was just not very conducive. The bread was also great and I am always a sucker for mushrooms and arugula. I personally had the duck and tried a mix of other plates seen below and I have to say the puffed wild rice was such a great textural add that I will now be adding to my home cooking
