Best Lunch Restaurants in Belltown / Pike Place Market

Wonderful French inspired cuisine and great service. And prices that don’t break the bank like some others in the Pike place market. Also no hidden 20% gratuity— again unlike many are now doing in the area.

Superb, as usual. The carrot sformato was an unusual find and quite delicious. The addition of olives to the blood orange and fennel salad hit just the right acid note, Mama’s meatballs were pure beef with a strong dash of anise seed, and the accompanying marinara had been simmering for ages to pick up that deep complexity of flavors and great balance between sweet and slightly acid.

We (family of 4 adults) ate brunch here the midmorning after Christmas and really enjoyed our meal. The food was very good, the service was attentive and courteous and the ambiance excellent. We lingered over our meal for almost 2 hours and felt the staff didn’t try to rush us out. Highly recommended.

I find the food in Seattle to be incredibly underwhelming so I was a bit leery about going to yet another restaurant in the city. I am glad I did because the food at Cutters was fantastic. This is the first restaurant I have ever been to in Seattle that I would actually go back to (and happily) The food, service, ambiance, and view are all terrific.

Excellent food and excellent service in a great atmosphere.
