Rover's

Frommer's Review

Tucked away in a quaint clapboard house behind a chic little shopping center in the Madison Valley neighborhood east of downtown, Rover's is one of Seattle's most acclaimed restaurants. Thierry Rautureau, the restaurant's much-celebrated and award-winning chef, received classical French training before falling in love with the Northwest and all the wonderful ingredients it has to offer. Voilà! Northwest cuisine with a French accent.

The delicacies on the frequently changing menu are enough to send the most jaded of gastronomes into fits of indecision. Luckily, you can simply opt for one of the fixed-price dinners and leave the decision making to a professional. Notable creations include scrambled eggs with lime crème fraîche and caviar; hibiscus-infused sorbet; and squab with roasted cauliflower, braised leeks, and lovage sauce. Vegetarians, take note: You won't find many vegetarian feasts to compare with what's served here.
