While my first thought upon landing in Seattle is hardly to run to the nearest French restaurant, I'm happy I let my friends guide me to this gem. There is good reason why chef Rautureau has been able to carve out such a lasting legacy. At Loulay, every element-- the food, the wine list, the service, the setting-- was in perfect sync, and each conveyed the same message-- one of casual elegance, attention to detail, and quality without pretension.
