The restaurant now adds a 5% “service fee.” I wish restaurants would simply raise their prices. The food quality is not what I remembered from just 6 months ago, which is a shame. I have enjoyed this restaurant over the years.

It was overall a wonderful dinner. The food and service were amazing. The restaurant feels very small and crowded. The decibel level from people was through the roof. Practically had to shout to talk with my wife. Prices were also through the roof. What yelp listed three years ago for Duck Confit at $24 was $40 on Dec 13, 2024.

We took a special birthday celebration trip from LA to Seattle specifically to dine at Place Pigalle. A favorite when I briefly lived up here, the charm, delicious and fresh menu still endures done 30 years later. Worth a journey from whatever four corners of the planet you happen to inhabit!
