The French inspired cuisine at Copine brought Yelp to say,
“Chef Shaun McCrain and his team offer a new menu each week, featuring contemporary American cuisine with a decidedly French flair. The 3-course prix-fixe meal offers multiple selections, so you’ll have some decisions to make—such as a recent entree choice between grilled Japanese hamachi with pickled black trumpet mushrooms; poulet rôti (roast chicken) with a smoked potato croquette; or a slow-smoked tomato stuffed with quinoa, lemon, and toasted pine nuts.
Cuisine: American (New), French
What they’re known for: The menu changes, but recent reviewers loved the cannellini bean agnolotti (similar to ravioli), the black truffle risotto, and a house-made fennel-scented ricotta.
Yelpers say: “Hands down the best culinary experience I had in Seattle. Everything was so delicious and seasonal. The butternut squash and maple soup is the best soup I’ve ever had in my life (I’m not even a big soup person). So so good!” —Kaye S.”
